Drama Guild Presents

its friends and itself last night
by reaching the peak Of its acting
season in a nice, naughty little Eng
lish comedy, THE Middle Watch"
which was presented at the Ward

to somber robes of the drama, the
Guild for once relaxed and came
down to earth with a sudden and a

rich with inconSequential lines, the
Guild played as it never had played
before. With new faces, an excel

play should be set down as the

viewed as an example CT swift, in

his speech at Madison Square Gar
den yesterday to q listless crowd Of

link of all the parties supporting
Wall Street and opposing revolution
was complete.
The only difference between the

out his promises. That can best be
left to lawyer famous for obtain
