WASHINGTON STOCK In presenting "Up in Mabel's Room" for the enjoyment of the theatre going public of Richmond at the theater all m'xt week. Manager Gruenewald has secured one of the most famous laugh hits of the past decade; a farce comedy at which thousands have rocked with laughter. The plot of the play ia developed around a harmless gift that Garry, in his bachelor days, has made to Mabel. As soon as he becomes married, Garry finds that, with a jealous wife, the discovery of the present may mean the collapse of his happiness. In order older to prevent this catastrophe, he

- goes to Mabel and. begs her to return

the gift

Mabel is obdurate. Garry decides

mat, 11 sue win 1101 give 11 10 iuui, ne j must secure it by other means. So ; he goes to Mabel's room. j Then the trouble starts. There fol- j lows one ludicrous side-splitting situation after another, until it seems as I

it all the fun in the world had been jammed into a single evenng's merriment. "Up in Mabel's Room," with John Cumberland in the role of the tortured Garry, enjoyed one of the longest runs a farce comedy has espcr-

if'ineu in years on isroaaway. 11 s

yuccess was caused by an irresistably

and sparkling dialogue. As the Jack Bessey stock players will play it; it will be a faithful attempt to duplicate th Broadway version and promises to bo a fun carnival extraordinary.

(By Apsn'.'iatofl Prpss) INDIANAPOLIS. Dec. G Recognition has been made of the increasingly important part women are taking in the business world by the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce. A membership drive, no- in progress, has been extended to t:ike in women members. Officials of the Chariben believe this is the first time that any organization like this has made a concerted effort to gain woman members.

Mahpl rofiinpi o.-irrv n'p.itU Throughout the country many women

aic iiuvir tuiuiieu hi inese civic ciuus but their entrance into Chamber of commerce affairs has been of their own volition, and has not been the result of any importunate invitations on the part oMhe male members. The feminine membership of the local chamber is now ino. Mrs. Felix T. McWhirter, in charge of the campaign for women members, believes that this number will be doubled before the close of the campaign. The board of directors has set aside a room for the women in the Chamber of Commerce building. This will be

fitted up as a lounge. Tables in the club dining room vill be reserved for the exclusive use of women.
