SSD ERKELEY SQUARE" is a

its audiences believe them

lectual, people of substance and deep
understanding. 1t Is the EinStein
theory in fancy dress. mysticism re-
duced to the simple language of the
drawing room. all the sure-fire ele-
ments Of romantic drama prodded
into spiritual highland fling.
In palmer words, the film revived
at the Little Theater is the story of
q modern young man who becomes so
infatuated with reading the diaries
Of his ancestors that he yearns to
return to the eighteenth century, be-
lieving that the people he knows so
well in his own mind must exist some
where in time His wish fulfilled, he
discovers, like many another man in
history, that the gift of prophecy is
not always comfortable one, that
to know too much is not always to
be propotionately the happier.
Peter Standish's excursion into the
past is indeed trying journey, one
in which he seeks unwarily to change
the course of history as it is written
and thereby ruins his chances of
reasonable contentment in the modern
world. For in the diaries he loves so
well, it is written that the Peter
Standish of the 1780s married a
certain Kate Pettigrew, whilst the
Standish gone backward over times
chaSm wishes no such union, finds
himself enamored of Kate Petit
Crews sister. Returning again to the
twentieth century, he discovers the
memory of this infatuation so colors
his emotions that he cannot bring
himself to accept the world or the
loves Of today, must renounce both
to live in what promises to be sus-
piciously like the state of vapors so
assiduously cultivated by some of Mr..
Will Shakespeare's Cupid smitten
swains.
Theatrical in the last degree, in so
far as it depends upon psychological
trickery and illusion to satisfy its
beholders. Berkeley Square" is by the
same token exceedingly satisfactory
theater The cozy delusions of gran
deur, the politely provoked emotions
of pity and sympathy and nostalgia,

able properties show houses have for
sale.

which at other times of the year are
not available to the public, and many
of which have not hitherto been open.
Approximately forty more places will

the places to be visited on the north
and west are included within thirty
miles. Thus it is possible to cover the
whole area with comfort during the
period of the pilgrimage, planning a
tour for each day and returning at
night to Baltimore. However, over
night accommodations have been ar
ranged in different sections, some of
them being clubs only open to the
public during the pilgrimage. Tickets
for different sections and descriptive
booklets may be purchased from the
