Edward PauItOn'S
Expert Farce Is
Expertly Played
Her Temporary Husband
Highly Amusing Attraction
at FraZee Theater.
NJ LAWRENCE REAMER.


There was something about the three
words Her Temporary Husband which
was presented by II. II. Frazee last
night at the Frazee Theatre. to make the
experienced playgoer prick up his ears.
Ii seemed as IL 1t might be one OF those
farces OF a kind that are-well--more or
less familiar When a will was mem
toned it appeared, indeed, as II the
worst suspicious had been verified.
What followed was Of corrcborative
character. This will required that the
heroine should or should not marry
somebody in order to keep a fortune.
The SNOWFALL kept rolling. There was
also a sanitarium in which the first act
passed. There was man likely TO die
ia three months. one thought OF VIII
lam Collier in Never Say Die" and sat
tight as the hero disguised himself with
a beard to look like the niling man
and married the girl with the impending
fortune.
That. indeed. is the sort Of farce
that Edward A. Paulton had written
lie has always written JUS this klnd'
come to think of it, and maybe Her
Temporary Husband seemed oelated pc
cause playwrlghts no longer dedicate
ii. cir talents to plays Of the same kind.
Character is of course allowed 10 play
no mart in the development of their hui
nor. None OF the fun comes from
possible contact with life Meehanical
expertness determines every step WIth
the precision of Swiss watch. Occa-
sionally violent physical effort or one
kind or another contributes 70 the pay
ali the naAlral comedy il con'alns.
Mr. PaNton does the thing expertiy'
drv and lifeless as it all seems. But 70
his wen regulated mechanisms there are
.,rtain tastes that still react freely.
The back seats of the Frazee Theater
last night. seemed to be writhing with
noerriment, to judge BY the sounds that
tsrifted toward the stage. There was
laughter even in some Of III, nearer
rows Applause was limitless. William
Courtenay. who seemed TO be the star oI
the evening made a speech OF thanks 70
he audience.
Exnert as Mr.. Paulton is in his kind

traved. The actors played admiraply,
They had to act farce and not lie ana
thew did II extremely well. Mr.. Court
enay Is brisk and unflagging and now
ever rapidly he may speak IL y always
,,ossihle to understand hsn. That may
nor be so important in such play as
.He, Temporary Husband" but It IS an
evidence Of his efficiency in such parts.
George Parsons. Harry Allen and henry
Mortimer stood Loyalty behind him.
Miss Ann Andrews played especially
well a love scene with a spurious nephew.
,The closer she got to some human emo
tfan that might have existed outside or
farce the better she was. This Is gen.
erallv true of all actors. It was certainly
the case with Miss Selena Royle,
blonde valkyrie in whom the spirit OF
comedy efrervescently bubbles. She was
al her best when she was able 70 repre-
sent something approximately life. Her
performance again gave promise OF
talents that will carry her far In the
theater.

YEAST FIRM LOSES
RIGHT TO PRODUCE
INDUSTRIAL ALCOHOL
(By This Associated Press

Washington, March 3.-Orders
revoking the Industrial alcohol
permits Of the Fleischmann com.
pany, Inc, of New York and its
eleven branch agencies, were is-
sued tonight by Prohibition Com
missioner Haynes.
At the same time prohibition Of
fiGials in the cities where agencies
OF the company are located were
ordered to seize supplies Of indus.
trial alcohol in the plants. Besides
New York, the company has
branches at Peeksl1ll, n v;
Yonkers, n. Y; Brooklyn n. Y;
Scranton, Pa; Philadelphia. Jer-
sey City, Cincinnati, Bridgeport,
Conn; Cambridge, Mass, AMI
Langdon, s. c.
Whether the revocation or the
industrial alcohol permits of the
Fleischmann company would inter-
fere with the manufacture of yeast,
prohibition agents tonight were
unable to say. 1t was thought,
however, that alcohol manufac-
tured along with yeast could be
allowed to evaporste instead of
being conserved as heretofore.
Revocation OF the company's
permit was regarded by Commits
sioner Haynes as lone OF the big
gest things done by the prohibition
bureau"
The action was taken on the rec
ommendation of s. II. Rutter, for
WAR ogspciato FadaraI nrphibitiOp
director of Pennsylvania, before
whom hearings were held in Phil
adelphia upon charges Of misuse
OF their industrial alcohol permits
by the Fleischmann agencies.
