The comedy was »iften by Paul Armstrong and Rex Beech, the latter being the author of * The Ber- rier," which Theodore Roberts played through here only a few weeks ago. The two plays are widely _ difierent, "The Barner," a powerful story of Fie: in the Canadian woods, and *Go- ing Some" a rollicking comedy, that carries the audience away with it from curtain to curtain. The play 'chronicles the doings certain bunch of college fellows girls who go out to a ranch to mer.

He was ably as sisted by - James Spotswood, as "Jam-s Wallinaford Speed," the would be runner,. and Audrey Beattie, as *Perkly Frashe,"" the tenor singer of his college.

On Monday, Jan. 3rd, at the Grand, May Robson. will be seen kn her great success, "lhe Rejuvenation of Aunt Mary." Miss kobson has played this delightful comedy for the past two seasons from coast to coast. In this quaint role of Aunt Mary Miss Rob- son hae a part that {s fitted to her like a glove. Her expressions of the yearning tenderness of the childless old lady rise at time® to a height that is almost tragic. The play is full of bright comedy linés, novel sitnations and that wholesome sweet- ness that appeals to every one: ; *1he Rejuvenation of Aunt Mary" tolls the story of a rich old maiden lady who once had a love story of hir own, but whose heart is bound up in a nephew in college, who 'is a little wild, but not more so than the average young man. He is unfortun- ate enough, howéver, to get involvgd in a number of strapes, one of whith' vs. a breach of promise case, fn which the nephew i really not to blame. expdsife causes the aunt to dis- inherit. Wim, and he hurties off to New York, where he falls in love with a beautiful girl, and where finally the aunt follows him.

The sport completaly wins he Ra her country lie, and recon ¥- "her to the marrigge of her nephew to his sweet- heart." The piece is elaborately and artistically staged: 2 'A Timely Topic For A Play.
