the National Grange, have already
begun the presentation of their
case to congress and the American
Federation of Labor was scheduled
to appear before the house ways and
means committee today.

George Fisher, ls by many CON
sidered to be the star part in the
comedy. The plot OF the play re
quires that George shall Disguise
himself as young lady, in order to
frame up on the old man. Julian Ell
tinge created this role, when the
play was originally produced in New
York.
Cecil Gibbs will play this part IN
the forthcoming production here
To see him as George Fisher is
alone worth the price Of admission.
Eva Perry plays the leading young
woman s part in the play, and with
Miss Gladys Neitmann in the role
of the young wrfe anxious to see her
husband a Mason, the part is well
handled. The struggle of her love
for her husband with doubt. of her
husband s veracity results informing
complications around which the play
progresses.
Ernest Morrison, the sweetheart
of Lulu, one of Eva's younger sis
ters, is played by Bob Robbins.
Morrison is the only real Mason"
in the plot. He has a difficult trme
convincing his future mother-in-law
that he is the right kind of man
to be the husband of her daughter,
but finally succeeds.
