proposlng to Hannah for over thirty years. Hannah does not be- lieve in hasty weddings, however, and keeps him guessing.

The title role of Dr. Kern wan capaibly portrayed by Mr. Fred L. Macmillan whose characterization of the difficult role was complete. He looked the part of the country doctor from head to foot and did full justice to the part. This was his first appearance on the stage. Freddie Lawson, the most hiun- orous part in the production, vraa handled in a creditable manner by Mr. Connie IECIBII‘. Probably the most difficult role in the play, Connie gave a first rate interpreta- tion of the Doctor's handyman and supplied the laughs for the large audience.

Hannah. the Doctor's house- keeper was interpreted by Miss Dorothy Hughes. Miss Hughes left nothing to be desired her characterization this demanding roie. The actress seemed to be quite at ease in the difficult comedy part.

Miss Betty Mitchell in the pert of Mrs. David Strong. the wife of a wealthy business mail, making her first stage appearance here gave an outstanding performance. This youthful actress. in voice and every gesture, showed a deep study of the requirement of the role.

The part of Glasgo Risser, a banker. was cleverly portrayed by Mr. Henbert Oatway. Iii the rolc of the villain Mr. Oatway did Justice to the part. which called for ru- perb acting. Hie part was one of the highlight: of the delightful play.

The role of Dr. Jack Kern, ‘son

of the family doctor, was Dleflsllifl- ly characterized by Mr. Fzed Coa-dy. The interpretation of the young doctor was cleverly executed by this clever actor, appealing at the Prince Edward or the flzst time. Mr. Howard Mclnriis gave ii cal!- able performance in the roie of David Strong, a wealthy business man. l-lis stage manner was of a high order and a good clear voice accentuated the acting of his char- acter role.
