cellent comedy work, and furnished
much of the evenings amusement.
Leo Adde was Gee Whiz," a sher-
ifs officer, and he played it Ito the
limit" 1t is dull part, indeed, that
Adde can't get some fun out of, and
the character of "Whiz" gives him a
wide scope, of which he takes full
advantage
d. B. Meede, the tenor, was in very
good voice, his interpolated solo mer-
iting prolonged applause.
As Sherwood, Orvey Post, the bari
tone of the company, comes to the
front quite conspicuously for his
clever rendition of a most exacting
role.
Joe Alexander, one of the valued
members of the organization, does a
neat bit of character work as Squire
Bantam.
Altogether the Adde company is a
decided success and deserves the ap-
probation and patronage of the pub
lie, which it is receiving.
