Fred Jackson' s three act farce “The
Naughty Wits" which will be given
first local performance at the Regent
Theatre. Norwalk. on Thursday night.
September 12th; for an engagement of
the one performance only by Slwyn
and company, is a diverting' ‘iittle
piece based upon martial complica-
tions familiar in so-called French
' plays. but in this instance presented
with a somewhat novel side to the;
triangle.
Silly women who listen to a male
philnndsrer, because hubby is trio
busy to satisfy all of,wifey’s whims
and neglects to play the part of a con-

tions have’ not been models: of prop-
riety. neither have some of: the stage
personages.

was originally produced under the
title of "Losing Eloise." Mr Jackson
