Miss Lockwood to death with his
walking stick. Lady Smith patiently
is not an author to turn squeamish
when dealing with brute in noble
clothing. Nor is Mason an actor to
approach so narrowing an interlude
with anything akin to manifest
relish.
THE Man in Grey" forthrightly
affirms that this is what Miss Lock-
wood asked for, and this is what she
got. Mason's fans apparently are
placed in the same category.
There is soft opening in Gains
borough's production of THE Man
in Grey" but it is brief. Audiences
are not left long in ignorance of the
fact that the Marquis is mad His
fatal weakness is the Rohan family
pride, weakness sharpened by the
circumstance that the Rohans ap-
parently have nothing to be proud
of. The Marquis is introduced just
after he has killed a drunken boy
who dared venture the judgment
that the Marquis was rat.
From that point on, the Marquis
proceeds to prove that his poor vic
tim was quite right in that rat judg-
ment.
He is much too proud ever to fall
in love with even so lovable girl as
Clarissa Richmond. He chooses her
as wife, however, on the ground that
his heir could use her briefly as a
mother. Clarissa Miss Calvert who
Is forced into the marriage, sub
sequently decides she does not like
it. After the child is born, the Mar
quis gives her every reason to feel
that she is an unmarried woman,
sense that eventually leads her to
accept the importuning Of hand
some, foot-looSe aristocrat from the
West Indies.
OF all possible ways of running
afoul of the Roman family motto,
Who dishonors us, dies" that is tine
perfect one.

The role Of the mad Marquis
clearly is cut perfectly to Mason S
measurements as an actor and he
enters into it with what amounts
to downright fervor. But so, on their
Irrespective parts, do Miss Lockwood
as the beautiful, dark and evil other
woman; Granger as the handsome
scapegrace from the Indies, and Miss
Calvert as the lovely, lively, innocent
