FAMOUS CLASSIC IS
COMING TO GARDEN
"Turn To The Right" Is Story of Three
Crooks Being Reformed By
Old Mother.

"Turn to the Right" the famous fun
classic which comes to the Garden
Theatre next Monday and Tuesday,
presented by the Pickert Stock Com
pany, is the kind of play that warns
the hearts of the most hardened amuse-
ment seeker. 1t tells a quaint and
amusing story of the effort to Ego
straight of a young man who has just
finished a term in Sing Sing Prison, and
who returns to his home in a little New
England village just in time to save the
old homestead from being sold for debt.
Two New York crooks, safe-blower and
a pick-pocket, old pals of the young
man, arrive in the village, meet the
simple, lxind-hearted little gray-haired
mother of their pal and stick to the
finish in the battle against the village
skinflint.
"Pd go to hell for that old lady," re-
marks the roughneck e-blower-and
around this sentiment hinges the entire
story of the play, a masterful influence
of a sweet, old country mother on three
who have steadily been jog
cling the wrong trail. The safe-blower
and the pick-pocket flimflam the skin
Finland in other astonishing and ridic-
ulous ways save the day for Mother
Bascom, until the three young men,
the organization of syndicate
to sell mothers peach jam, find the
straight and honest trail to riches and
happiness.
