The Play "Three Wise Fools," wue t opens the program tonight, was written by Austin Armstrong, author of “Seventh Heaven.” It comes to the Chautauqua program after successful runs in New York, t hit-ago, Philadelphia, Poston, and other larger titles. The story is of three mon, a judge of the supreme court, a celebrated doctor, and a financier of great wealth, who live together as a remainder of their once vaunted desire to emulate the Three Musketeers. They had all three loved the same girl and lost her, but were friends to the last. They had, for many years, passed through the same tiresome routine dally until the doctor decided that something must happen to get them out of the rut. And something does happen. It Is a play that Is strong and capable of holding the audience breath--1 >ss until the final curtain. It has no moral but presents a strong purpose.

That Betty was really the cause for the Pewter Bowl's new-found prosperity none knew better than Charlie Bridges, Its proprietor. Hl« favorite post was behind the wire enge of the cashier's desk, where he would beam genlully and admire the high color that bushed Betty's cheeks us she tiew about her duties. In time Charlie, good business man that he was, sought to make the arrangement permanent. There were other arrangements besides business for Charlie’s wanting to murry Betty. She planned, In time, to have a career, and Charlie was given the small congelation of knowing that she was serving as a waitress only us a preliminary to great things. Just what definite form these high ambitions of Betty's took she had never confided to Charlie. But anybody with half an eye could see that she wus extremely solicitous about the needs of the stage folk that came to the Pewter Bowl, and might have concluded that Betty was stage-struck. Which was true. For her the romance of the day began shortly after mam. when the profession begins to bestir Itself abroad. Chorus ladles, frankly made up for a matinee, would drift in then for a combination brenkfast-lunch, and Betty would serve It much as a Greek handmaiden might have offered sacrifice to the gods. There wus theater gossip tossed from table to table, and Betty would listen breathlessly. And sometimes, In lieu of a tip. a customer might leave a complimentary ticket to a performance at Ids theater. And once—the thought of It still thrilled her unspeakably—once Joy Barry sneaked her behind scenes to a corner where she could watch things unnoticed. Joy was a “super" nt the theater across from the Pewter Bowl. She was blond, pretty and, Betty privately thought, deserving of more recognition than an undlscernfng public had yet nceonled her. She was possessed of the mercurial temt>erament common to the successful and unsuccessful of her profession, which, as It happened, vyas of vital Importance to Betty, whose whole career had been altered because one day Miss Barry entered the tearoom completely out of sorts. Stage life, It appeared, was everything that was detestable, she was through for good: she was going to cut toilay’s performance; she would get a go h| Job with easy hours, waiting on tables of selling toilet articles. Betty listened to this high treason with a heart that l>eat In painful excitement. She knew .Tny Barry's part | —she had tn skip lightly across the stage with a group of village girls fti the third act. and to decorate the background. smiling naturally, in the fourth act. Easy emaigh 1 Would she—would Joy. dear Joy. let her take her place Just this once. Joy smiled . cynically at Betty’s excitement, but I she agreed willingly enough. Rhe would write a note to one of the girls In the aet. so that there wouldn’t t* any trouble about It. Nobody else would notice her. And so It happened that Betty Best found herself, for one night at least, a |mrt of the life she had so long dreamed almut In the pigtails and abbreviated skirts of a village girl «he wnltrd In the wings for the eue Her 1 throat was distressingly dry and her tongue clove to the roof of her mouth. Rhe was terrifled, fdr no reason nt all. Her knees trembled and she smiled a 1 sickly response to the girl who tried tn cheer her up. All t>« quh-kly came the cue for the i entrance. Ttie other village girls skipped by her and left her behind In her hesitation Rhe copied their motions as beat ate could and forced her-a,-|f upon the stage. The audience, that vast sea of faces out theie. rose and receded dUzily before her, She swung her anus stiffly beside her *nd hurried as fast as she could to the ‘ haven of tlie wings. I The other girls were aympsthetlc. Everyleaiy felt that way—why. s-me IMsiple never g>K over It! In that mo mint Betty's career was seulvd. and Fharlle ndglil take heart. The fourth act came all too soon. In tights and ballet skirt that made her feel more miserably self conscious than evur, Betty welted In th* wings as though for her doom Her cuelt was time to go on again! She set l,er stiff Ups Into a determined smile and walked upon the stage. The same dlsflnrsa. the name freeging of all her pmserg! She managed to get l„,o her place In the background and then fainted dead away. Joy Barry had played the part for months with nut being able to attract notice. Not an Betty Best! We don’t have to say much about the furore It caused, because Betty wasn’t there to bear 11, either. She slipped into the pewter Bowl a little shamefacedly, her natural color putting her grease paint to ahame tTmrlle greeted her reproachhilly. “I aay. why didn't you aay you wantrd to go on the stager’ he demanded. “J could have pulled some trtringa tn get you a real part." Betty shook her head at him, her expression one of ttenevoleol wisdom: hut • trace of mischief showed througli her smile. “1 don’t believe In careera for women.” site announced. "Woman's place la tn the h<»tne." 1• • •

It was past dusk when Maughan's record flight came to an end at Crlsaey field, but airmen pointed out he had delayed at dawn, that the sun was up 37 minutes before the little plane hummed off into the west and that the flyer actually arrived IS minutes ahead of schedule. Maughan wus "air sick” a couple of dosen times dur ng his flight. He ate little, he said, between the time he left New York and his arrival here. Face wind-burnt, eyes flaming, red rimmed, sunken und blood shot., hands trembling with sheer fatigue, the airman was bundled off to bed after he had sketched a brief, unromantlc word picture of his epoqh-making flight.
