Is more of a. ps) etiological and sociological study than melodrama Its author, Roy Fos ter, has endeaored to show how a beau tiful stenographer leads her wealthy em ployer away from the straight and nar row path, which all employers are sup posed to and should follow. The in genious manner In which the author has solved the ancient problem keeps the spectators In a state of tenseness tnroughout its unfolding. Charles IL Steens Is seen as the business man and victim of the vles of the stenographer, which role Is capably taken by Dorothea Howard, a comely girl whose acting Is quite natural.
