Miss Ruth Doyle, John Walker, Mervin Severance, Bert Morrison, Hugh Whipple,. Henry Bur nett, and Charles Palnmer.. and tbey formed'a notable cast. The orkwassincere, interesting and stirring. S6nie very clever and reall.y humorous actin9g w*as done b'v Mr. Palmer and Miss Hoffmnan in the roles of Nick and Susan Potter-and deserves special- menti on. Their dia- log was sparkling and their teani work sbowed excellent, training. Miss Peggy ]Pavis not only gave a very sincere*portrayal of the lead- ing parti, "Linda Seton" but she séemed to look the part, a rollickin.g. straightforward girl eager to kiloW life in its realtity,: frank and. honlest, unhappy in, the shamn:,surroundings, which ber fathers wealtb had hujît for her. The part of Ned Seton was taken by a 34oung man wlio gives evidence o_' decidecl dramatic talent, Bert Morri- son. He has a výery fine and expres- sive speaking voice in excellent con- trol, and splendid poise. It is. hoped. that he will work diigently at the, rudiments of acting and not be early spoiled by too much praise, which lie is bound to have. He bas the qualities to go far in this profession and these comibinedby earnest work and avoid- ance of mannerismns should carry hinîi far. Another character who stood out espécially in the cast was .taken by Hugh Whipple as the. father. He bad a very good makçe-up and appeared a prosperous gentleman in the early fifties. He is in reality quite a youingý man. His voice is remar-kable, of great depth and beauty. He broulght to the-,play an exçce llent performance. Miss Melita Skillen, who, directed the play,, deserves great . praise.. The play ivas most enjoyable and the- final climax of tbe last act carried' with it a decided thrill., <CENTRAL.WiLM6TTE AVENUES PHONES: WIUWIETTE 28 end 29. and STORM DOO1US Phne Wuuimtt. 131 or 190 HOFFMANN BRO8. 1$08 central Ave. Jack and Hôro Kaufman, who are attending Lehigh universitY, ffethlehem, Penn., are arriving homle this week to pass the Christmlas holidays with thieir parents, Mr. and Mr».
