His impractical pride suffers when he learns that Benedict Arnold and not the "father of our country" once slept in the ruins, while his wife impatiently puts up with such inconveniences as lack of water and a bathroom.

Director and ette Marbes performed capably as le uneasy owners of a "lemon." A ood share of the play's as carried off splendidly by Robrt Nelson as the hired man and ina West as the slouchy mair. Notable was the work of Art Kassul the unscrupulous Uncle Stanley, vhose final redeeming action makes 11 end well. Repeat performances are scheduled Thursday, Saturday and evenings. Curtain time is 8:40 p. m.
