Prominent in Miss Victor's support are Albert Bruning, Edward Emery, A. G. Andrews, Herbert Yost and a large and capable cast.

And in "Thank they do happen. "Thank is rich in human characters, and they are ably portrayed by the members of the original New York 'cast, including Harry Davenport, Edith King, Phyllis Rankin, Helen Judson, Joan Shaw, Conway Sawyer, Frank Monroe, Donald Foster, Phil Bishop, George A. Schiller, Frederic Malcolm, Herbert Saunders and their associates.
