The husbhand, losing his temper, proceeds to invent a story, which he succeeds in convincing her of a half truth. The wife in turn undertakes to verify his statements by the sending of a teleâ€" gram to the supposed name and adâ€" dress of the friend with whom he has declared he spent the night. A friend in need turns up in the person of Mr. Fuller (Douglas Master), He and the husband (Bert Lacey) work out a scheme of making the lie a truth, by Mr. Fuller taking the name of Brown and posing as the supposed friend. All works out beautifully, the wife (Georgâ€" ie Burgess) after listening to friend Brown‘s explanation, is profuse in her apologies to her husband for having doubted his word and peace and har mony is once more restored to the Temple home, when, unfortunately, the real Mrs. Brown (Eleanor Morrison) she having found the telegram sent by Mrs, Temple, the tradegy of the story being that Mr. Jolhin Brown does hapâ€" pen to exist and lives at Pickleton, the imaginary name and address of Mr Temple‘s invented friend. Weston High School auditorium was crowded on Thursday and Friday of last week when the O.K. players preâ€" sented their pleasing comedy, "Mrs. Temple‘s Telegram." The performers who were all local people are to be highly congratulated on the success achieved, the entire sketch being preâ€" sented in a most pleasing manner and was a delightful mixture of wit and humor and also showed the serious side of life and the entanglements likely to occur if deciet in any form be resorted to, especially so in the case of a maâ€" trimonial quarrel. ‘The truth, however improbable it may seem is always the safest course for even the self sacrificâ€" ing efforts of a, friend will not avail if wifie decides to find out the truth. Mrs. Brown having found the teleâ€" gram sent to her husband is naturally very indignant and carries her anger into the enemy‘s camp in a very conâ€" vincing manner, another complication. 0. K.

The self assurance of _ Wigson, the butler (Archibald Cunningham) and his complacany in his own ability to control his temper at all times and upon all occasions was most refreshing throughout the entire comedy. }it would be impossible to explain his possession of these to his wife, being upbraided by her in his selfishness in forgetting his sister‘s birthday» he hits ‘upon the happy idea of serving two _purposes, that of getting rid of the glasses and of giving his sister, Doroâ€" thy, a present.. She, having no use for the same, hands them over to her lover, Captain Sharps (Wm. Newsome), on the eve of his leaving with his regiment for the east. Jean Master played the part of an injured sister, and also the part of the sweetheart in an admirable manner. Here again fate intervenes as to the success of the erstwhile husâ€" band‘s plans carried out, and the lady of the car calls for her‘glasses and unâ€" fortunately places another tangle in the web of deception, she being the wife of Mr. Fuller and knowing nothing of the situation greets the supposed Mrâ€" Brown as Mr. Fuller, Vera Farr taking this part. At last the husband finding they are but getting deeper and deeper into the tangle decided to make a clean breast of the situation, and with the newspaper to support him as to the acâ€" tual occurrence of the ferris wheel misâ€" hap» tells his wife the plain facts, spicâ€" ing his remarks with a few suggestions as to the harm of jealosuly and after these explanations are made the united couples go out to dinner in a most hapâ€" py frame of mind.
