Adhering to its policy of present.
ing new plays by Indiana authors,

Dalton of Indianapolis. entitled For
Brides Only"
The performance is announced for
the evening Of Thursday, Feb. TO-
at the Masonic Temple, North and
Illinois SITS.
Advance notices of this play de.
scribe it as a hilarious comedy filled
with the typical satric Dalton cpl
grams. In it the author, ignoring
the usual causes for divorce such as
drunkenness, nonsupport, unfaith-
fulness, etc, claims that 80 per
cent of all divorces are caused by
the one attribute which he says is
selfishness.
In this farcical comedy the an.
thor seeks to laugh out OF court the.
primary cause for divorce which !
thinks is the fact that each bridw
and groom who appears for dissolu.
tidon of his vows, is really but ia.
king himself or herself too Sc.
riously.
The scene is laid in that dis.
trict known as the East Side

teeming life springs to lead even.
