to do with the hit this play succeeds
In scoring at each performance.
Young Mr.. Cohan has devised some
exceedingly clever situations. some of
them melodramatic to a degree. ana
the web Of melody which is so deftly
woven throughout the three acts

tertainment par excellence.
The song numbers in Little John.
ny Jones' are one OF its most fascin-
ating features. AS a matter OF fact
Mr.. Cohan has supplied this particu-
lar play with more of his compost
tions than are noticeable in any or
his other productions. The favorites
