New York. "Girls" gives a description
tf the struggles or three- young women
to earn a living, their brave beginning
and their ultimate willingness to iei
mere man work.ut the problem for
tbem. .
( The . whole play is pure comedy of
the first raiiK.- it pictures tne aiscom
fnrtK and makeshifts of studio life.
One -- large room in-a studio building
is the home 'of three young women, all
out .of employment, deeply in debt and
looking for work. ' The eldest of the
trio is an avowed man hater, and talks
loudly . of man's inhumanity to woman
and the injustice of the Inequality of
wages. Her two companions, tor me
akt of Karmonv tn the family. Dre-
tend to aarree with her. Because of
Ylkt vouth. her utterances are extreme'
Mv ImisrhahleA At the end of the first
act when they all prepare to retire for
the night, the ract is aisciosea mat
they-are sadly .In need of certain ar
tlcles xf furniture known as beds, and
are forced to sleep (in turns) on a
fnldine bed. couch and Morris chair.
Suddenly a young man rushes into
the room, slams the door behind him
.and locks It. Consternation reigns and
an explanation is demanded; but this
rm.llr la the funniest situation in the
play and It cannot be described in a
lew woraa; it must oe seen 10 m ap

; . family proves her Inconsistency : and
lack of conviction by falling in love
with the Intruder at first sight Af

situations the play ends in good old
orthodox fashion with all the girls
