...After two minutes of Mr. Murphy, no one in the house was able to take as anything but a joke the murder of a financier, the hysterics of his wife, or the calm plot of the hero to have himself killed so that his life insurance might save his bank from ruin. Yet somehow, there is no hint of burlesque in this rendering of the "detective" theme; it is not that the play "makes fun" of anybody or anything; it simply is very funny to see. The skilled finger of Guy Bolton is evident...
...acting is even and not in the least forced or conventional; the absence of a "star" has led Mr. Marcin to put several of the parts into the hands of capable farceux.

After an apprenticeship in a Canadian Bank of some seven or eight years, a man is eligible for assignment as manager to a branch bank at a salary of about $8000 a year. Unattractive? Financially, yes, if you place against that the $10,000 a year you may expect to make selling, say shoe-strings...
