Some Funny Figurss.-AccOrding to
the dramatic editor of the Los Angeles
Herald, Who sat through no less than
four of Ezra Kendan's performances
during his engagement in that CRY and
had an expert mathematician compute
the number of laughs created during
each performance, the average was no
less than 2G7. These were cea, gen
uine, hearty outbursts of laughter. not
mere chuckles, though experts of
laughter declare that a deep-seated
chuckle is often provocative of more
amusement than louder burst of
laughter. Be that as it may. however.
and figuring 267 laughs 10 a perform
ance, enjoyed by each auditor. we find
that Mr.. Kendall produces 100000
laughs at every performance for mis-
audiences during each of the 500 per-
formances that he plays a year would
average at least 1900 persons to an
audience. Multiply 800. 400 laughs Ly
