'JUST KIDS" AT THE LYRIC,
BIG FEATURE OF PLEASING BILL.

Felix and Cairo, at the Lyric this
week, in Just Kids" with excellent
limitations Of Harry Lauder, Bessie Nc
Coy, Richard Carrie, Trixie Friganza
and the Rogers Brothers, are the hits
of the show. The young lady member
of the team is strikingly better than
the juvenile, but both are more than
worth while. James and Elsie Finney
supply a vaudeville novelty in their
swimming act in a crystal tank. Their
'"under water tricks are decidedly in
teresting. Techow's cats show a range
of intelligence that ought to make some
of the human species of acrobats
ashamed of themselves. Harry Watson
and u company of four present a
sketch, 1.-THE Two Flats" which is a
laugh-supplier. Blanche Baird, the
tailor-made girl sings songs. one OF
which. refers to the I'm Right" Club
as the cause of stage success. She
probably belongs to the I'm Right
Club. Harry Jolson sings b~urlesques of
grand opera. The White City Quartet
is moderately successful. There are
Duo Devene, in a%crobatic novelty. and
the lyriscope to fill out a satisfactory
bill.

her attitude, he breaks down her de-
Tense and succeeds in winning her
heart and hand, while the youngest
learns of the joys of being in love,
with the assistance Of the confidential
clerk.
That's about all there Is to say Of
the play. You see. it's Just real; no
guns, no dramatics. no heroics. Just
a little life story depicted so genuinely
thai one cannot remember that it is q
play. You'll be ever so glad>if you
see ii.
Florence Reed gives a splendid por-
trayal of the Independent, self-confi-
dent young woman, the leader of the
trio who hate men and is proud of the
fact, and who is at a loss what to do
when the love-microbe seizes her. Ruth
Mayciiffe, as Violet, the youngest,
smiled and pouted her way into the
affections of the audience. Occurrences
under which is hidden an unlimited
store of mischief, is Violet's long suit.
A sure-enough charmer is she!
Miss Amy Ricard piays-Kate West,
the actress, and plays her well. Shes
as real and dear a girl as the others.
Miss Purcelle, who "elocutes," gives
many laughs as played by Miss Ger
trude Foster. Charles Cherry, as Ed
gar Holt, gives the character the neces-
sary amount Of light and shade. John
S. Marble does some excellent character
work in the first act, though his part
is small, as the drunken j%anitor.
It's a happy little play, proving that
real life isn't half as bad as some Of
us think. We would like sdme more of
the same kind from Mr.. Fitch's pen.

EVA TANGUAY'S SECOND WEEK
AT PROCTOR'S POPLAR AS EIRST

Eva Tanguay, she of 81 don't care"

appealed to the patrons of Proctor's
Theatre that her term was extended
from n to two weeks, and last night
she delighted a large audience by her
eccentric songs and capers. That her
clever and original work Is thoroughly
appreciated by Newark theatre-goers
was evident from the applause that
greeted her many hits. She wore new
costumes and sang new songs-at least
some of EN- were new.
Albert Sutherland and company in a
grand opera offering, 1.-THE Patriot"
shared honors with Miss Tanguay. The
music of the opera was pretty, and that
it was pleasing to the audience was
manifested by the applause which
greeted both the solos and the chorus.
It was thoroughly serious in purpose,
telling how George Washington was
saved from death by the daughter of a
Tory, who was herself slain by her
father.
Another feature, not on the program,
was the sketch given by Gordon Eldred
and company. 1t dealt with the tribu-

airs her views concerning the other

while the Others watch dolefully the
disappearance of their dainties Miss
Purcelle goes at last, and they proceed
to go to bed, or rather to beds, for n
has the folding bed, the other the couch
and the youngest the Morris CHAIR.
When they have subsidized for the night,
and the little one has wiggled her toes
from under the covers, for the delecta-
ton of interested watchers, the uneX-
pected arrives. Their sanctum is in

Pamela Gordon, rampant man-hater,
lashes him with her tongue, calling him
all of the things that man-haters call
men and exhibits him to the Others
as a fine sample OF masculine perfidity.
He laughs and tries to explain, but
cannot stem the avalanche of words. At
last he that he intends TO

tude. Her husband is watching the hall,
and he dares not go that way Pamela
glares at him, places e shutter across
the space between her window and MISS
Purcelle's and orders him to leave. After
considerable webbing n innumerable
shrieks on the part of the three, he
descends into Miss Purcelle's room, and
the incident is closed. Once more the
girls seek their couches, and the curtain
falls on a darkened room, with three
little feminine warriors sleeping the
sleep of the just, or, rather, the unjust.
Pamela is a -stenographer and secre-
tary. Violet, the youngest, is a stenog-
rapher and illustrator. The other one,
Kate West, goes on the stage and be-

As a holiday attraction for the pa

the old-timers, and has remained popu-

score of ear ago.
The staging is good, particularly In
the second act, revealing a very realis-
tic village IN the distance. The entire
production is above the average and
worth seeing.
