Seymour Hess, an extrovert whose business U reviving ailing business linns, ni there for the l.aietli perlormance and his 183rd. Tor tlie benefit of a few folks lately arrived from Slam and for eome more who have learned to read since my lust annual report, "Tho Drunkard" has abounded ev eryone by running no long. It la not Improbable that a play would go on for 21 yoara; it ! impoMlble. But '"Hie Drunkard" haa done it. It palnta in the brondcat melodra matic tenna the evlla of drink. Kurd drink, that la. Beer la aerved tree throughout the performance to ah apectatora over 21, I will not try, again, to explain "The Drunkard." Maybe champion Ilea can: "There la nothing e' like It In tho world.

But "The Drunk delivers his once-spontaneous lines when Hess Isn't In the aui!nce. It occurs to me In writing this that this Innocent fun must aeem aw fully childish. If Hess were young er and Indulged In the same fun at a movie, he'd likely be thrown ard" la different. Added Service to Lakeview!
