If they are, 3'hat will be come of you .and your loved ones in the future? All of these questions are strik ingly answered in the great Metro Popular Plays and Players produc tion, "Extravagance," with Mmo. Petrova as the star, which will be seen here at the Sherry Theater for the last time tonight. The play deals with a father and his daughter who fetter themselves by their own extravagance. The father commits forgery. The daughter's uitor ,an estimable man, is dragged into the maelstorm of financial ruin. 'From beginning to end the play is a powerful lesson, and it is filled with At Sherry's Today face. W..?'Sl.1fcl.-- SCENE FROM "EXTRAVAGANCE " dramatic situations.

THE WHAT-yOU-MAif COLUMJV BY "GM" Flats. A flat is a place with no room for expansion, intellectual or chest. It requires thin furniture and a narrow wife. The rooms are so small you have to walk sidewise when you wear your winter clothing. And it's no place for a man with a stomach if you won't want the walls to bulge. Newly initiated flat dwellers have to be carefully trained so they won t walk out in the back yard and fall off the fire escape. When the fellow who said any old place he could hang his hat was home, sweet home to him went to live in a flat he kept his hat on and hung him self instead. Life isn't much without a front porch and a hack yard anyhow. But what's a man with a 1x5 income going to do with an 8x10 disposition in a 2x4 flnt? Jonah.
