Mistaken identity has been the
prolific underlying theme of the
French and German school of farce
and farce comedy for more years
than one cares 10 remember and yet
IL permits of sufficient variations to
establish and establish firmly at
that great number of American
and English farce comedies both
musical and dramatic. Success has
perched upon the box office of many
of these attractions. One of the
most conspicuous examples of this is
the musical melange Of Rudolph 4
Adolph. by Mr.. Chas. Newman.
which, under the direction of Messrs.
Broodhurst and Currie. has had an
unprecedented success during the
past few seasons. Its humor Is
broad and clean. the dialogue bright
and scintillating, the various scenes
delightfully."- grotesque, while the
accompanying musical numbers have
been particularly catchy and
whistly." OF course. as il is 10 be
expected. dialect German, when in
corporated in such "a musical farce
comedy. adds much very much to
the fun of the situations. This show,
in entirety. as endorsed by the press
and public. will be seen at the La
Junta Theatre on Wednesday even
ing. February 18th. and ought to
prove a treat for theatre goers.

dainty little books on the cover Of
which a spray of Columbine. the
Club flower was beautifully painted
by Mrs. Hart. The books contained
the names of a number of objects of
art To be found on the tables. They
were found but the brain work in
