“Shunshine Molly," a Bosworth,

ed, tellsthe story of a young woman
who gossip anoil town in search of
work «am! in fiudlns it there, also
finds many good hearts and faithful
ldriends among the rough and honest
men of the wells. YetsthIere is one
who is. different—so , different, in
.fact. that through an insulting act to
hér, he is ostraelsed by his fellow
workmen, and only her intercession
saver; him from bodily harm. As dine
goes on, her sunny smile and helpful
ways endear her to all and he. out-
side the pale, bitterly regrets the act-
ion he was committed in a moment of
bravado. He worries so that his ner-
ves become affected and his queer act.
ions cause him to be shunned all the
more by his companions. One night
he is stricken. falls unconcious and is
later found by Molly, who takes him
to his but and tenderly cares for
him. From that time on it is as if a
new man has awakened in his stead
and he becomes a man, in fact and
action as well as in name. it is a
strong part and played as .only Phil-
lips Smulley can play it. Lois Weber
is also fitted for the title role of

STAMFORD THEATRE
At last Stamford can boast a dra-
matic stock company of the bightest
class. This is something we have
wanted for years but never have had,
and the. Cook Stock Players which
opened in “Baby Mine" Monday night
at the Stamford Theatre are so im-
measurably superior to other so-call-
ed stock organizations that have play:
d here that they are literally above
comparison. No longer need we
go to New York to enjoy high
class theatrical entertainment. The
company secured by 'Mrs. Hartley.
true to her progressivepolicy of the
entire season, is made up of players
who have been conspicuously con-
nected with the leading Broadway
managers. while Mr. Charles Epicr
son Cook was himself for many
years David Belasco’s righpbnpd
man. Sb we may look 1for "claps" in
every detail, and this is what will
mail! the season of thb Cook Stock
Players a success in Stamford. Every
theatrcgoer should patronize them re-
gularly and'should tell. their friends
in order that this organization may
become a fixture among us.
“Baby Mine", which is being play-
ed this week. is a rollicking farce by
the author of "Twin Beds". and its
claim to be the funniest play ever writ-
ten, was well justified by the roars
of laughter which resounded through
the theatre Monday night. No com
pany has given a finer performance
here this season, so don't miss it.
Next week ‘The Blindness of Virt-
ue" will be played. This is one of the
greatest sell dramas ever written and
should be witnessed by every parent
whose children have been grought
up in ignorance of the vital problems
of life. Written by Cosmos Hamilton,
it is a powerful arralngnment of all
who allow their children to face the
problems of the world unprepared, on
the false theory that ignorance lathe
greatest safeguard against wrongdo-
ing. That daughters verging into
womanhood should be instructed by
their mothers, in all matters that
pertain to their future welfare and
moral rectitude,
great play, which will. have its first
presentation in Stamford at the
Stamford Theatre next Monday
night. “The Blindnessof Virtue” has
been the most sensational success in
stock in this country and has been
played to capacity wherever pre-
sented.
Subscription books are now open
for the entire season and Mrs Hart-
ley hopes that her patrons will call
early and' select their locations in
order that they may occupy the
same seats on the same night every
week.
