 Gales of laughter swept thru the audience during the entire show for there were many situa- tionS which brought out successive sallies of wit and "wise-crackS." :" all delivered by the young hiStrio- nic artists, with talented dramat- ic representation. It was one of the cleverest of dramatic traveSty'S to have been presented locally, was the comment heard as the spectators passed out at the con- clusion of the show.
 It appeared as if Director Tal- bert had cast the players perfect fly and the dialogue was carried on with little hesitation.
