...program will be as follows...
...funny how some little thing, irrelevant to the general scheme of the play, catches your fancy and stays in mind long after the rest of the spectacle has vanished. An example of this is one Franker Woods, as the program has him. If we were not dead certain from accounts in the daily press that Fred Stone is at present a broken-legged individual, or at best a golfing convalescent, we would go up to this Mr. Woods, and holding him gently between the thumb and forefinger say "You are Fred Stone!" For never have we seen such a resemblance...
