knowing how to act. Miss Percy Has-

Courtship,” last season has a very good
part In the new play "The Head of the
Family,”-which is to be given at Hoyt’s
Theatre Friday night and she is said to
have made a very,big hit in it. That
tidy little lady, Gladys Wallis, is seen
in the play as a miss just entering her
teens. She is a spoiled and petted
darling crazy to go on the stage. . One
of the best scenes in the play comes in
the third act where her father dissover-
.ing that she has histrionic ambition
gets her to read a scene from “Romeo
and Juliet” At its conclusi n the old
gentleman comes to the concTusion that
she would make a better emotional cook
than an emoticnal actress and straight-
way sends her into the kitchen to
master the intricacies of, boiling pota~
toes.
