A Farce in One Act by Gertrude E. Jennings.
Characters:

The housing shortage has driven Vera, Eric and Christine into the house and power of Mrs. Buckle. Her drawing-room, in which the action of the play takes place, is draughty and uncomfortable, crowded with heavy, tasteless, rather shabby furniture. On the summit of an ugly cabinet a large stuffed fox glares out from a glass case. In one corner of the room then-is an imitation Japanese folding screen. Christine, whose speech is muffled by a severe cold, crouches over a tiny fire struggling for existence in the grate. Vera is holding a somewhat heated telephone conversation with their landlady (Mrs. Buckle) who wishes to turn them out of their temporary home.
