As usual, 
NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
Mr. Davies has devised one capti- 
vating scene that always touches 
the hearts of the spectators to a 
very genuine degree. 
‘““The Single Man’’ is Robin 
Worthington. What with the influ- 
ence of Spring and the sight of his 
brother and _ sister-in-law’s happi- 
ness with their baby, he determines 
that matrimony is just what he 
wants. The sister-in-law, Mrs. 
Worthington, thinks the same and 
brings down-a friend of hers, Louise 
Parker, who is also desirous—very 
—of attaining wedded bliss. Robin, 
however, has been inconsiderate 
enough to get engaged to Maggie 
Cottrell, a high-spirited, tomboyish 
young lady, who is obviously the 
very last person in the world he 
ought to marry. Maggie and her 
riotous young friend give the bride- 
groom-elect the time of his life. 
They make him play tennis in the 
broiling sun. They racquet most 
outrageously at tea and insist on 
playing hide-and-seek immediately 
after; and poor Robin who has been 
vainly trying to turn a man of forty 
odd into a frolicsome youth, finds 
he has made a mistake. Suddenly 
he realizes that the real wife for him 
is his secretary, Miss Hazeltine, a 
little woman of rare tact and char- 
acter, and, above all, a woman who 
loves him devotedly. It is an awk- 
ward situation and one which 
sparkles with comedy and an ex- 
cellent opportunity for Mr. Drew’s 
distinguished company. 
The part of the secretary is 
played by Mary Boland, well known 
as Mr. Drew’s leading woman. 
Louise Drew, his daughter, is the 
youthful sister-in-law, who wanted 
the hero married to a woman of 
suitable age. Thais Lawton is the 
designing spinster, and Carroll Mc- 
Comas the youthful fiancee whose _al- 
luring prettiness is designed to eap- 
ture middle age just as it would in 
life. 
AUTOMOBILISTS’ NOTICE 
A long felt want in Manchester 
is finally taken care of as Perkins & 
Corliss have put on a large rein- 
forced cement addition to their 
garage, equipped with hot water 
heat, hot and cold water, new toi- 
lets, and all the latest improvements 
found in a modern garage. This 
garage is strictly fireproof, and the 
only one in Manchester; also fur- 
nished with a mercury rectifier for 
charging storage batteries and elee- 
trie .cars. 2-3-4, 
The mop is very frequently floored, 
but not in a household argument.
