Carleton Players
Present Southern
Play Successfully

The Henry Carleton Players pre-
sented the Southern play, "Mammy's
Girr' at the Coliseum Monday eve
ming with Vivian Mayo in the char
acter role of Nanny" which she
cleverly impersonated, much to the
amusement of the audience. Rich
ard Lloyd played the double role of
Robert Toombs, the wealthy father of
Rose Toombs, and also that of Andre
LIE Beau, the French Canadian who
finally reaped revenge for the wrongs
committed by Arnold Toombs. Miss
Martin as usual played the leading
part, Rose Toombs, the blind daugh-
ter of a wealthy Southern gentle
man.
The play although a tragedy has
many amusing situations, and is well
balanced in humor and pathos. It is
one that shows to advantage the
many abilities of the Players. 1t will
be repeated tonight and Wednesday
night.

"Drucilla With a Million" Real Film
Treat, Today at Opera House

Mary Carr is Druscilla pathetic
old soul, consigned to an Old Ladies'
Home to spend her last days there in
toll and drudgery. But by an odd
turn of fate-not far fetched by the
way-a distant relative dies and
leaves her cool million and beau
tiful country home. Druscilla Is an
old maid but has a golden mother
heart, and taking in a little waif to
share her bounty, soon becomes the
target for unwanted babies until her
house is overrun with them. The
story develops in most dramatic and
logical fashion. eliminating in SUI
perb emotional climax. Mary Cars
work far transcenes anything she
has ever done. No superlatives can
overstate the excellence of her por-
trayal. 1t Is a masterpiece. Priscilla
Bonner, hitherto little known. has a
part which would delight Lillian
Gish, and she gives one of the most
appealing screen performances OF
recent years. Kenneth Harlan Is
splendid, and Claire Du Brey. the
vamp of the old Thanhouser days Is
properly "catty" in that sort Of a
part. William Humphreys plays a
cold. infiexible attorney in the most
relentless manner. The cast is flaw
less in fact. and the abies!-Women.
and men too for that matter. are 60
ing to go wild over the most natural
baby acting ever seen on the screen.
They are sheer delight.

Padding Madaline Home" was the
first end song sung by Wallace Ston-
Ter, and after Wally had responded to
his encore several times Irwin John
son was heard in THAT Certain
Party" and right then and there es-
tablished his reputation on the stage.
A pleasing Finterlude to the snappy
minstrel numbers was the rendition
of pal of My Cradle Days" sung by
Simon Baitler. Jim Staples went OVER
big singing Five Foot Two, Eyes of
Blue" and this was followed by Are
You Sorry" sung by another favorite,
George Copeland, Henry Heselton al
so made good on his first appearance
on the Gardiner stage when he sang
"Show Me the Way to Go Home"
with unique parodies hitting at local
celebrities. Jerry Desmond, a singer
who is one of Gardeners favorites
sang Alone at Last" in his usual
pleasing style. Kenneth Groder was
heard i'll That's All There is to 1t,
There Isn't Any More" and added to
the good impression he made in his
last appearance. Jimmy Philbrick,
the last of the ends rendered, Eyes
Sir That's My Baby" In a style that
was well received. The ever enjoy
able Steve Monaghan in Down By
the Vinegar Woiks' proved himself
a real Hard Guy and was up to
his usual high standard. The finale
feature was chorus rendition of
Just a Sailors Sweetheart" and
made pleasing close to an enjoyable
evening.
An orchestra composed of Johnny
Curry, Francis Monaghan. George
Manson and George Standish fur
nished music for the production. The
work of the chorus was especially
pleasing, as it had both volume ana
harmony. Their efforts showed that
considerable work had been done to
bring the assembled whole to perfec-
ton, and the payment of hearty ap-
preparation by the capacity audience
more than made up for the weeks
of efforts.
The chorus was composed of Simon
Eaitler. George Copeland. Fred Con-
nors. Jerry Desmond. Tom Bowling,
Paul Fitzpatrick, Paul Demerse,
James Doland. steve Monaghan.
John Spear. Joseph Bell. Eldred
