ed and there is nothing but praise
for Mr.. AIDES book and the tunefuI.
catchy music written by Mr.. Lorraine.
The. opening night proved conclusive
~ that Chicago is going to like Peggy
Immensely. The bright lines and
pretty score. interpreted by an excep-
tionally strong company amid the
gorgeous scenic surroundings sup
Piled by Mr.. Savage, combine to make
a production which is admirable in
every respect. The song hits of the
piece are Lii. / Like You" Email
ieen." The Girl Who Comes In from
the West" and 'tHenny." In the lat
ter song Miss Josie Sadler has made
a distinct hit and has added to her
reputation as delightful German dia-
lect comediienne. Other members of
the cast who scored heavily ON the
opening night are w. T. Hodge, Helen
Bertram, Fred LennoX, Guelma Bak-
er, Helen Hale, Arthur DEACON, Alice
Hagemen, George Beane and John
Park. 1t is quite evident that Peggy
is to succeed even beyond expectation
and that the new musical comedy is
due for long and successful run at
the Studebaker.

the man to wait a moment until he
could go out and get the change,
left the store. Wien he returned
with an officer the stranger had
disappeared.
The note was a 50 certificate and
d naught had been placed to the
right Of the. figure ,, the go APP
