lect that furnishes the best back
ground for many OF the best plays
of the day. AT least this was the
impression that the presentation Of
LENA Rivers" left when shown by
the Wilmington Players at the Gar
rick theatre last night. The play
IS a little bit different from anything
attempted by the stock company
heretofore. While It has presented
drama several times In the past II
has in most instances either been
too heavy or the company has not
been adapted TO the parts.
Miss Estelle Kelley Is seen as
Lena Rivers. and gives to the part
Just the right touch. It would be
easy TO overdo the part in the more
serious moments. and just as easy

comedy action. However. Miss Reil-

Lena's lover, although he Is not the
only one by any means. Lena IS an
orphan. or supposed 10 be one. In
this role she has 10 put up with
the GOODNESS OF rich relatives. In
addition her parentage has been

20 her sunny disposition as she
grows older. However. everything
turns out right IN the last act and
Lena and her lover marry.
