What's the trouble with the

wrathfully.
With a wide gesture OF her ever
moving arms the actress waved back

Then she whipped of her long tan

Miss Carroll had gone 20 supper

the tropic wood nymph. A skirt OF
fern leaves touched her knee: she
was Ike a humming bird-Teen
and golden and purple.
And then she danced 4 fluttering.

three members OF the Carroll Com

are Of il.
And at the proper time Delmars
leaped out at her side, mimicking
the uncouth. hideous bounds of the
gorilla so funnily that the grizzled
| sergeant himself gave a short laugh
like tho closing OF a paddock. They
/ danced together the gorilla dance
and won a hand from all.
Then began the most fantastic
part Of the scene-the wooing Of the
! nymph by the gorilla. It was a kind
Of dance itself-eccentric and prank
ish. with the nymph in coquettish
and seductive retreat, followed by
the gorilla as he sang III Woo

The song was a lyric OF merit. The
| words were nonsense. as befitted the
play, but the music was worthy OF
! something better. Delmars struck
into it a rich tenor that owned a
quality that shaned the flippant
! words
During ONO verse OF the song the
wood nymph performed the gro
tcsque evolutions designed for the
scene. At TIE middle Of the second
verse she stood stlH, with a strange
look on her face, seeming to gaze
dreamily into the depths of the
scenic forest. The gorilla's last lear
had brought him TO her feet, anC
there ne knelt, holding her hand
until he had finished the haunting
lyric that was set in the absurd
comedy like a diamond in a piece OF
putty.
When Delmars ceased Miss Carrot
started, and covered a sudden flow
Of tears with both hands.

gesticulating with violence; "ther,

The matron OF the police station
had been standing near, listening 10
the singular argument. She came
