n an artists studio. After much .
persuasion the maid is TAX
m 10 Morovia TO become the ruler !
II her kingdom. Throughout the /
performance there are many pleas
ng scenes and all the performers !
cave nothing unturned to make the |
a success.
Miss Nan G. Walsh. who ap- |
reared as "Marca," the maid and |
