Ifcpr.are you the husband in the case? ^ In either event, you should go to see w "Parlor, Bedroom and Bath," the F screaming funny farce comedy which fcwill be presented at the Opera House Hpn Wednesday direct from the ReVpublic Theatre, New York, where it was one of the conspicuous hits of last season. "Paylor, Bedroom and Bath" is described as a fresh, flipi.vmt, farcical frolic in three acts by Wr W. Bell and Mark Swan and has ^Uie rare distinction of having scored ^^Msational hits in Chicago and New H:k in the same season, on the ^ Kision of its first presentation in ^^Rh cities. ^B<4Parlor, Bedroom and Bath" is ^Kid to contain one of the most Bngenious plots ever embodied in a 'Tcomedy. As much of it as has been divulged concerns the adventures of > an innocuous young husband who is compelled to live up to his wife's conC ception of him as a gay Lothario, r Modest and innocent as he is,, she still believes him irresistible to ; \?g|nen, arid glories in his imaginary Ljpst. To ^lstain the illusion he prospeeds to pose as a dare iievil, and quite unwittingly becomes involved J in a desperate situation in a private suite in a lonely wayside inn. A carnival of laughter follows in the wake of his predicament, and a wealth of hilariously amusing lines and situations. I x "I Love You" \ In. theme, construction and funi^^king methods, "I Love You," HKlliam Le Baron's smart farce which o+ +V10 Dnctra Wr?ns#? is W ill uc Siiumi Ok vuv Kn vivid contrast to the great majority Fof farces produced in the past five L ye-fs. It is different in methods because it dispenses with all the tricks gitfd suggestive strategies which are ^Bf>mmonly supposed to be essential to Msuccessful farce weaving. Its audiV ences laugh constantly for over two 5 hours without seeing anyone look - through a keyhole; without seeing an > intoxicated fat man hiss a smaller man's wife; without seeing a pair of - ? I.j. ?J. ?ki;? pajamas orougnt out iur ^uutu inspection; without hearing a furious husband berate an unfaithful wife. ? NC attempt is made to add to the laughing qualities of the performance ( with episodes that breed more t,{lushes than chuckles. William Le K Baron's deftly drawn satirical farce I succeeds in charming its bearers J through the. sheer merit of its humorously drawn characters, the ingenuk ity of its plot, and its smart, crisp, I clean dialogue. r - Ml Love You" enjoyed long successful runs in both New York and loot ooacnn whprp it won Viliwagu, IUJV UV.UUVU, _? approval of the most discriminating critics and audiences.

' j Debate on the Wisconsin senator's' > motion, which may last for several i days, was started by Senator Thorn-1 as, Democrat, Colorado, who attacked the labor section as creating "a j supernation for the benefit of a particular class." He called attention to a clause in the treaty declaring the well-being of wage^ earners to be "of supreme international importance," and quoted Samuel Gompers as saying tne laDor provisions wwc | written "by labor- men for labor." Agreement to such a program, Senator Thomas asserted, would not be in the interest of thfe world's peacfe. The section not only isv unconstitutional in' several respects, he continued, but its proposal for uniform labor standards is "grotesque," and can result only in a leveling to the standards of China and India. He estimated that the international labor body would cost the United States ; "fully as much as the expenses of our j j own government." Senator Penrose, republican, Pennsylvania, suggested that the peace conference agreed to the labor section without understanding it, and declared if it were understood now, every trade union in the United States would condemn it. Senator Thomas will continue his speech tomorrow, and no vote is expected before next week. Several other senators expect to put up a I stubborn fight for the La Follette i * / motion, though they concede there is ! little hope for its adoption. I Textually the treaty today was ' just where it was when it was laid jbefore the senate on July 10, the ! last of the amendments attached by | the foreign relations committee afj ter weeks of deliberation having j been thrown out by the senate yesterday.
