Ha1'tley Manners. The scene was laid in the English home of the Chichester family , sophisti- cated and conventional. The part of Mrs, Chichester, a cold, stern matron, was excelently portrayed by Margaret Conlon. Haughty, laconic Ethel, her daughter, was taken by Winifred Shores, who gave an admirable performance. Gregory Rogerson played with no mean ability the part of the foppish son, Hi-Xl2ll'iC,,y and provided a gen- erous measure of comedy. Priscilla Houston, as Bennett, the maid, and Anthony Forti, as Jarvis, the butler, both showed talent in their rolls. At the beginning of the play, the bank in which all the Chichester fortune was kept, failed, but the family was preserved by the timely arrival of Hawkes, the lawyer. This gentlen1an's character was ex- cellently portrayed by Earl Rubens. YVith Hawkes came Peg 0't'onnell to live with her aunt, Mrs Chichester, for a stipulated period as requested in her late uncle's will. The role of this charm- ing, mirthful, mischevious 11'ish girl was played by Elizabeth Fergulson. The Chichester household was thoroughly shocked and disgusted by the entrance of this imp into their once peaceful home. However, Jerry, the hero, admirably presented by John Lapp, found her ab- solutely adorable. Peg and the family struggled somehow through a month at the end of which t'Peg, hungry for excitement, stole away with Jerry to a dance against her aunt's wishes. Upon returning home, she discovered Ethel ready to elope with Chris Brent, the villain. John Broughton, in this character, gave a line pe1'formance, exhibiting exceptional talent. In preventing this elopement, Peg created a scene and aroused the family. She got into great entangle- ments by attempting to shield Ethel and planned to leave the next day. Luckily affairs were pretty well settled by the lawyer and Jerry at that time. t'Peg refused two well-meant proposals from Alaric and Hawkes but with maidenly hesitancy accepted that of Sir Gerald Adair, better known as Jerry, TXVENTY-TYVU
