have your husband go to the

S. The phrase that you sug-
gest cannot be improved upon
for a hostess and host to say to
their guests. The point is that
the hosts should thank the
guests for coming, just as the
guests thank the hosts for in
viting them to come. You show
that you have the instinct Of
the real hostess!

Though it was the middle OF

With immoble face but blaZ-

through the arrivals at the inn, the
match becomes a center of semi-pub-
lie activity. Drastic measures f.
nally bring satisfaction to all per-
sons involved, but the humor is
maintained throughout.
Acting by an exceptional company
gives charm to the production. Most
impressive Is the character that rep
resents the obstinacy of tradition,
as contrasted with the demands of
youth-that of Thomas Greenleaf,
the innkeeper, played by Walter
Edwin. Eliot Makeham as MFR. Blan-
uuet, the sardine salesman, gives as
fine a piece of character acting as
the stage affords, while Miss Daphne
Warren Wilson as Miss Greenleaf,
and Miss Olga Slade as her mother,
contribute to the action from the
serious side. Frank Petley as AM
brose Godolphin, K c.. and John
Warburton as Cyril Beverley, the
wealthy labor man, show skill in
their efforts to sink their own inter
estS in desire to aid the romance
of the younger persons. Ronald
Dare as Gerald Arnwood, the lover,
and Arthur Ridley as his father,
contribute their part to the action.
The settings are admirable.

"Bird in Hand"
Provides Rare Comedy.

"Bird in Hand"
Provides Rare Comedy.
~ OKING fun at all kinds OF
conventional people without
destroying their rightful dig
nifty, John Drinkwater, in his
comedy, BIRD in Hand"
which opened its washington en-R
Qagement at the Shubert- BelaSco,
last evening, treated the town to
draught of stimulating stage elixir.
AS might be expected from a man OF
his keenness in studying the traits
that make up one of his characters
describes as the circus of life, he
presents his types in ludicrous set
tings.
Most effective, fro mthe stand
point of comedy, is that second act,
in a bed room of an inn, which Is
shared by a distinguished barriSter
of the most precise characteristics
and an effervescent young scion OF
wealth, who has joined the British
Labor party, and, in his desire to
right the wrongs of the world, In
SistS on converSing with his ROOM
mate while that person Is trying to
obtain his customary allotment OF
slumber. His subject is the innkeep-
er's violent attitude toward his
daughters romance. In the midst OF
their fragmentary discussions, sea
soned with pompouS protests from
the barriSter, a sardine salesman,
who occupies the adjoining room,
comes in to rebuke them for their
noise and stays to join in the debate.
Then comes the anxious lover, who
is invited to enter by the window,
and finally the father and daughter,
who have had an encounter in an
other room, transfer hostilities and
become part of the scene.
"Why be obStinate" is a query
which is suggested by this concoc-
ton in the line of stage entertain
ment. Nine characters are brought
forth by the playwright. In the
first act, the bar parlor of the inn,
Mr.. Drinkwater has so timed their
respective arrivals that each imme-
diately becomes q necessary part
of the story. An expert observer of
human nature, he has employed his
knowledge with the sole object OF
creating comic effect and his sue
cess is apparent. The several per-
sons involved speak in epigrams, but
each in the language Of his own
occupation.
The trouble arises from the par
ent's refusing to consent to his
daughters acceptance of an invita-
ton from an aristocrat's son, for
a ride. She defies the father and
trouble develops In his anger the
parent threatents both of the young
persons. With the interest edeveloped
