,4iU. hf tf t i" PAGE BTXj STORY OF ROSALIND ;TJ BE GIVEN AT PAGE ON MONDAY "Rosalind," a clover little onc 1 net comedy by Harrlo, author of Teter Pan," "Mtllo Minister." etc, In to be Riven nt I ho Page, Momlny ai'il Tuesday evenings, in connection with tho regular program of moving picture. The regular prices will not be advanced, and the bill hldn fplr to be one of tho most nttrnctivo of the Reason, The comedy Is given under the auspices of tho Drama I.caguc. by the League's amateur dramatic com mittee. The object of tho League Is not to make money, but rather to give to.tho playgoers of Mcdford an opportunity of seeing ono of the later high-class plays. Tho cast Is an ex ceptionally good. one. It Includes Mrs. A, Conro Plcro, Mrs. Sooy Smith and Fletcher Pish. I'M Is Unique The plot Is unique, and the comedy la of the refreshing, subtle order that depends for Its humor upon prob able situations, rather than extrava gant burlesque. Mrs. Flcro enacts the part of a famous English actress who was noted for her performance rf $ellnd. The humorous situa tion hinges upon her very youthful appearance, despite tho fact that sho t "ferty and a blttock," as tho Seotch say. While In retirement. she le stepping at a quiet little out- of-the-way place, where she has throWn off the make-believe that Is neeeasary to keep up her girlish ap pearance before the public. Sho Is living the sober, easy-going life of a nl44le-aged woman, wearing the loose, comfortable garments of a contented matron of 40. In order to avoid explanations, she has written across her own photograph & line of endearment to her mother, so that the Innocent English landlady thinks the photograph Is that of tho daugh ter ef Mrs. Page, rather than that of herself. To, add to tho humor of the situa tion, Mr. Roche, a young English gentleman of 23, who had formerly been an admirer of the actress, stops at the little wayside Inn during a hewer, sees the photograph on the Mantel, and Is told by the landlady that Mra. Page, who at tho time, is lying on the sofa, feigning sleep. Is the mother of bis beloved Beatrice. The young man wakes her up, in order te make her acquaintance. Actress that she Is, she plays the part ef the mother for a time, and then discloses her Identity. The young man la heartbroken at the transfor mation of bis Ideal, but when she .leaves the room for a moment, and reappears la her youthful attlr.e, he la as madly In love as ever. should Have Full House Mrs. Plero Is most happily cast in the part of Mrs. Page, tho actress, which Is a part that runs tho entire gamut of the emotions, as well as impersonctlng mother and daughter. Mrs. Sooy-Smlth, as the English land lady, gives a characterization of the part that would be satisfying to oven as critical a stage manager as David Bolaseo. Fletcher Fish Is always Kood la everything In which he ap pears, and he Is particularly well adapted to Mr. Iloche, the young Xagllsh gentleman of leisure. The play would bo well worth a dollar admission, and the fact that Is given without auy advance over the regular photoplay prices should assure a crowded bouse. -t HEmronp matt; trtbuni;, mkdfoud, ortrcaoN, Saturday, may in, iir wsaiiafjU-J.
