We do not hesitate to say Hi t if you have not seen this "trail. 5 pt of life." during its New York or Philadelphia. runs. do so before it leaves your city. This advice has been‘given theatregocrs by practlo cully every dramatic commentator ill New York. .Chicago and Boston. .ln which cities the play has been presented. . Perhaps one of the principal rea. sons for the success of “The Show \gff" is the infectious laugh of its ‘ J .rlnclpnl character. It is not a ' lrthful laugh, but rather the re. . ‘ stilt of empty-hoadedness. and yet it arouses mirth in those who hear it. Audiences have laughed until they cried; in fact, more laughter will not be heard ill our theatre all season. and for the most part it has its origin in the guffaw of the show- ua. Louis John Bartels. in the title . 331e, plays Aubrey Piper to the min~ ute. He parades himself in the .3 «mom of a typical American family. , us when necessary on his ,hv, ‘ -to-do bl'cther-in-law, grasping we ideas of others. and almost per- uhdlng those who knew him best that he is a man of mortance. ‘ Helen Lowell. as Mrs. Fisher. his mother-ln-law. makes an able foil for the blatant husband of her daughter. and the brilliant repartee between these two characters is carried on to the final curtain.

O O O What “Certified” On Oysters Signifiesg . . . lily State Dept. of Health). . .. liven among oyster dealers them— misconceptlon arises occasionally as to what is meant by selves. some certified oysters, i. e.. oysters which are shipped by u. dealer possessing' a certificate from the Slate Depart- ment of Health. This certification in Connecticut has means (i) that the dealer agreed to ship oysters only from areas which have been inspected and analyzed by the State Depart- ment of Health and which have been found to .be satisfactorily lo- cated. (2) that the chucking and packing establishment has been In- pectéd by the State Department of Health and found to be in a nitary and satisfactory condition. (I (I) that all persons in the establishment engaged in the chucking of oysters or the handling and packing of chucked oysters havo been examined and found to be free from typhoid fever bacilli. Obviously. certification is not a guarantee of each particular ship. ment nor does it protect shipments from seizure by federal or other ag- thorlsed agents for examination for sdulteration or other purposes. The best analogy to certified oysteu is ' certified milk. in other words. to the best of the knowledge of the.
