Ohio State Journal—1In the character of 'The Professor,' Mr. Gillette is immense. From beginning to eitd it is one roar of laughter from the audience."

NATURE HAS SO KINDLY ALLOWED TO GROW THERB. THE MOONLIGHT, THE SILENCE, THE DEEP HUSH OF TWILIGHT CONSPIRE TO MAKE THIS A BEAUTIFUL SCBNB. THE YOUNG MAN WHO NEGLECTS TO TAKE HI8 SWEETHEART TO SEE "THE PROFESSOR" WILL PROYE A STINGY HUSBAND, AND HIS CHILDREN WILL BECOME POLITICIANS. THI8 PLAY IS WITTY, THE COSTUMES ARE PICTURESQUE, THK CROQUET PLAYING IS SCIENTIFIC AND THE_COURTSHIP IS OF OLD-FASHION KIND THAT ENDS IN A MARRIAGE. IF YOU WANT TO HEAR A GIRL LAUGH GO TO SEE "THK PROFESSOR." IT HASaWON A REMARKABLE SUCCESS IN THK LITTLE EAST AND IN THE GREAT WEST. ROBERT COLLIER SAYS: "IT LS MOST AMUSING." JOAQUIN MILLER, "LIKE NEVADA SILVER." N. Y. HERALD—'"CONTINUOUS LAUGHTER." N. Y. POST—"WAS WONDERFUL." N. Y. TIMES—"CHARMINGLY SET."

WHY DOES THIS PLAY HOLD ITS AUDIENCES FOR THREE MORTAL. HOURS? BECAUSE IT WARMS AND AWAKENS TOUGH OLD HEART OF MAN.
