A play which is entering a
tenth season of success must
have merit and be wanted by the
public. Such is "a Romance OF
Coon Hollow, which will be seen
at the City Opera house next
Monday evening. It will be a
complete and pretty scenic pro-
duction with a carefully selected
cast, and the additional features
of vocal quartet and a troup of
plantation dancers said to be
'sgreat''. There are over a score
of people used in the production,
each being capable of properly
portraying the role assigned.
The capable company is headed
by the rising young comedienne,
Ruby Erwood.
