Miss Russell, in the role of Anne Brown, a young woman seeking her psyeb'c control as a result of a visit to a clairvoyant, maintains her part consistently throughout the play. Our criticism of tbe production is that it leaves nothing to the imagina- tion, the fun being a little too care- fully labele*' "joke." However to those who enjoy fun in that form, Seven Days" offers ample opporturitv to indulge that taste.
