The greatest and most powerful sex problem play of the age, "Are You Fit to Marry," will be shown at the Opera House Monday. This pro duction deals with a, subject which is of vital importance to all humanity and shows fully and clearly the re sults of unclean living and the con. sequences of lack of'discretion be tween the sexes. The picture was produced by Dr. H. J. HaiseldenJ of Chicago, who shocked the medical profession and scientific worldswhen he refused to operatexon the famous Bollinger baby and save its hopeless, ly defective life. The plot presents an argument for national eugenic marriage laws, and the healthy nation that would result from healthy babies in a foreword, and then it brings out in a drama form in a story written by the maga zine writer, Jack Lait. The story is very; interesting, 'dignified and one tha will make those who view it think, especially after they have seen the pathetically subnormal children that the doctor uses for his argu ments. The leading roles are taken by Dr. Haiselden and a cast of fa miliar supporting people, including Hamilton Revelle, Elsie Desmond, Henry Bergman and Jane Fernley. Every , man and woman who is inters ested in the progress of the human race should make it his or her busi ness to see it . The performances will be as fol lows: Women only admitted Monday matinee at 3 and 4.30; men only ad mitted Monday night, from 7.30 $o 11 o'clock. adv. QUITE A SOCIAL AFFAIR.
