Lois Ann Wiegman At the opening of the play the affairs of the Beverly household have reached a critical stage. Mr. Beverly, a man of large affairs in New York City, is surrounded by two extravagant, luxury loving daughters, a reckless, spendthrift son ancl a wnife who, improvident herself, has spoiled her children from the time they were born. The Beverly family has been spending money faster than the head of the house can earn it. Beverly is beset with creditors who even follow him out to his sumptuous Long Island home and threat- en proceedings. He tries to make his famiily see the necessity of economy and warns them of the inevi- table crash impending. lnstead of heeding him however, his warning is greeted with sneers andcriti- cism and they decuide that he is an old grouch. into this clouded atmosphere of selfishness, deceit and false show comes Polly Perkins, llVlr. Beverly's ward and a modest heiress. The Beverly mode of living on Long Island is in decided con- trast to the simple New England village life to which she has been accustomed and for a moment she loses her bearings. But her heart and understanding are as brig as all out of -:loors and her eternal optimism and good will soon assert themselves. She brings with her the freedom an.d fragrance of the New England Berkshires, and instead of adapting herself to her new surroundings, she sets out to make them conform to her own standards of simplicity and happiness. I-ler very presence clarifies the at- mosphere. Not content with reforming the Beverly houzehold, she goes into the poor districts of the village and even there her winning personality works miracles. Through her kindness of heart two ragged, unwashecl children are introduced into high society, causing joy, consternation and condemnation among the various members of the 400. Beverly returns from tse city a ruined man and his family faces the prospect of moving into a Harlem flat, which to their way of thinking is worse than death. At this juncture Polly comes to the rescue and with sublime faithfulness places her legacy, which represents every penn.y she has in the world, into the hands of her guardian to help him stem the tide. ln the meantime Beverly's son Baldwin, who makes love to every pretty vface he meets, has fallen desperately in love with Polly. lt proves the making of him. He actually goes to work for the first time in hiis life. Through Polly's influence we see the better instincts of thes Beverly family and their friend come to the surface. They realize that money is not everything, that social position and false friends do not constitute happiness and that Polly Perkins is a wonderful little person. Her guardian is saved from ruin and she finds her ovsm happiness in the good she has wrought and the true love of Baldwin Beverly. GULF SCHRODER FLORAL CO.
