of Oliver S. and Mary (Edsecomb)

and inspiratiOnal character, the

It's an odd twist to the old, Old
triangle that would amusc even
Father Time, who has heard the tale
of two women and a man, since the
beginning of life. low many wives
have asked Would you marry again
if l should de-: how many men
have spent strenuous hour explain
ing after he had puzzled how to ans
wer, and then found that he had
given the wrong one?
Therefore, when the author of
"Hcr husbands Wife" by a clever
twist in the plot, turns theme ever
before tragic, into n rare comedy.
Father Time leans on his scythc and
cbuckles.

with the histronic ability displayed
by the boys of the Masque and Gown
