"Gool I laughed so nwich that my
fnco fools all dried up and twisted
out of shape tiB It It wouldn't evor
go back," snickered an olovon-ycai-old
boy aa ho wiped hla eyes with
tho Bldu of his hand when ho camo
down tho utulrH from tho balcony
of tho Grand opera house last night
after tho production of tho farco,
"Mrs. Tomplo's Tologrnm."
Tho boy's expression quote,! above
would havo exprosjed tho thoughts
of a great many people who saw tho
show. It was ono big laugh all tbo
way through with Just enough ln
tcrmlttnnccs to let ono realize tho
amount of fun ho wa? having. Tho
play was one- of thoso whero pcopln
nro always in a predicament, the
husband having to explain his pres
ence for tho night boforu, whllo his
wife hns nlso an answer to mako na
to whore she was nt tho same time.
Put tho piny wouldn't hnvo been
worth anything if tho actors had not
porformed woll, ns tho IJca Is roally
so silly and tho lies nnd situation
tho chnractora find themsolves In,
so imbeci'o, that to befuJdlo it In
any part wquld havo spoiled the
wholo.
William Hornard, as "Frank Pul
ler," waa probably tho beat of tho
ovonlng, telling tho most redlculoun
of Ilea to "Mrs. Tomplo," to pro
tect his friend, "Jack Tomplo,"
who had a night out to explain, with
a phlcgematlc expression, but, ut tho
saino (lino keeping In perfect toucn
with tho audlonco so that when tho
Joke nrrJvod, which It dlcl very fre
quently during tho performance, tho
Idea wag aubtloy convoyed to tho uu-dlence.
Margarot Snow, as "Mrs. JacK
Tomplo," was as sweet and vivacious
as eho was when sho played "Tho
Collego Widow," and tho3o who re
members hor thon will appreciate
her without further explanation,
Tho hofuso was well-filled and tho
npp'auso generous.
