Joseph Herbert, after years of toilsome play-doctoring and play carpentering, gets full and individual credit for writing thelbook of Joe Weber's ‘'Honeydew,” the musical comedy which comes to the Murat for one week beginning Monday night. Always with an ambition to do something fanciful and imaginative and artistic. Joseph Herbert has had to grind out • toilsome livelihood, writing “smart” stuff and “sure-fire” comedy at the order of managers, or patching up lame plays so that they would succeed at last and win some gift'ess and inept author a reputation. Possibly never until he began work on the book of "Honeydew" ■was he given an absolutely free .land, on something whole and untouched. Zimhalist. the composer of the music, it is said, saw to that. He was willing to fit his music to the scenario of one man who knew his business, but would not undertake to score managerial "ideas” and box-office suggestions. The result is an ojieretta with a real comedy story, ‘rich in fun lint free from the slightest suggestion of stage "H nkum.” In the cast will be found Ethe’ind Terry. Dorothy Follis. John Goldsworthy John Park. Genii Griffin. Ma lalen Gray. Marie Hall. Jerome Daley. Cansino Brothers. Pppeta and Fred Mannit. On Monday night the Shriners linve purchased the house and will givd one of their big theater parties. The general public of course will tie admitted to ail other performances during the week. After th“ show Monday night, the Shriners will give a dance. “TWIN BEDS” RETI'RNS MONDAY TO ENGLISH’S. ’ “Twin Beds" may or may not be the idea! equipment for a bedroom, but it is certainly a fact that Margaret Mayo and Salisbury Field utilized them to excellent effect in constructing their rollicking comedy of that name. This farce piled up a long run on Broadway when first produced and has been a big money-maker tin the road sea son after season. Joseph Sterling. Joe Burton, faille Van Vliet, Bess Stafford.
