Every horse has a check, and every ditch has two banks; even our streets are flushed and the lawns get a rake-off. Every cloud has a silver lining, and every flower has a scent. W'hen you put a five dollar bill in your pocket, you double it, and when you take it out, it is in creases. Can you afford not to live here? —Town Board Page Twenty-nine

Satisfied, eagerly anticipating audiences were alternately swept from high glee to serious contemplation as the full pathos of first-love was amusingly revealed during the unraveling of the lengthy, five-act play. It was a saga of American every-day living. All too soon were the curtains folded down on the ingenious, hilarious grand finale of a first-rate performance. THE CAST Elliott Hartman .
