We made our way to the plat

town as It had looked with its tree
shaded street winding away from
the station, and the vacant, wild
flowers filled lots extending between
the tracks and the first of the state

road.
Now it was a busting suburban
village, with every inch of space
around the station filed with neat
ugly one-story buildings. Having

old village had changed until l saw

mestic life. Her vaudeville sketch is
well acted and certainly pleased the
large audiences who saw it yesterday.
Paul George has unique musical
novelty in "A Kitchen Musicale" At

HELEN HAYES DOES WELL
In new PLAY AT PARSONS
"Loney Lee" Three Act Comedy,
Opens Engagement At Hart
ford Theater
tBy The Herald Reviewer,.


"Loney Lee" a new comedy in
three acts by Sophie Treadwell, pro-
duced under, the direction of A. L.
Erlanger and George s. Tyler starring
Helen Hayes, opened four-day en-
gagement at Parsons theater in
Hartford last night to an appreciative
audience. It is not hard to give an
honest opinion of the play for IL is
good clean comedy well acted by cap
able performers with Miss Hayes at
her best. The play is headed for
New York and it seems hardly pos
sible that there can or will be any
cutting or change in the cast to bet
ter the production before it is brought
to the metropolis.
Miss Hayes is charming and win
some as the country girl coming to
the city to make her way in the
world with millions of others. Her
acting is real, her crying scene in the
second act being especially realistic
and impressive. Her work was round
ly applauded by the first nighters.
better advantage the past few sea-
sons than in this production. He is
convincing as the lover and plays
well opposite Miss Hayes.
Mention must also be given That's
Magrane as the dancing instructor,
Hamilton Revell as the marquis,
Beatrice Nichols as Dot Norton. who
befriends Loney in time of need and
William Lorenz as the waiter. Others
in the cast who also do well are
Katherine Stewart as the marquis
wife, Beth Watts, her daughter
Harry Minturn as Lawrence Gormont
and Eden Gray as Flora St. John.
There will be three more evening per-
formances with matinee on Wednes-
