The successes of the past month at tn
Academy of Music were made longe
chain by the presentation last night Q
'Two Little Migrants" Everythin,
was sold out downstairs, several hun

s attraction at popular prices. The com
pany this year is fully as good if no
better than that of last. A noticeable
change from last years presentation i
that the part of .sFan Fan" is now tn,
character about which the whole play i
built. This is due entirely to the pow
erful acting of Miss Mildred Holland
who has brought new ideas and new
business into part once a minor one
She is one OF the very few women wht
can completely bury her own identity il
that OF her character when doing boy
parts. Intelligent and energetic, hel
acting makes the part stand out If
