New York last season, Adam and
Eva" the Guy Bolton and George
Middleton comedy which f. Ray

ffanding comedy hit. being voted a
noteworthy addition to the short
list of comedies that create new
sources OF mirth. and offer more
substantial appeal to the playgoing
intelligence than can be derived
from mere frivolity.
It is a play OF American home
life. a clean. wholesome, humorous
comedy which points out what home
life often is and ought not to be.
il is a home where a rich father IS
rot stern enough to repress the ex-
travagances OF his children and

these things are remedied. and af-

comedy.
