GRAND OPERA NOW
IN VAUDEVILLE
A New Experiment in "Varie-
ties" Will Be Entertained
This Week

The history of vaudeville has been
one of advance and Improvement. II
is not so long ago when a variety
show was coarse and untidy, and when
good people did not patronize the pro-
auctions which were notable mainly
for their vulgarity.
With the advent of enterprising men
of the stamp of Norris Meyerfeld, and
the adding of sketches and short plays
to the vaudeville bill of fare, variety
mended it's ways and became an institu-
ton of tremendous theatrical impor-
lance.
The latest to be served at the Or
pheum will be a grand opera in one
act. called The Patriot" In another
column the story is reviewed.
The music is by Stanislaus STANCE,
and the book is by Julian Edwards.
Both are said to have acquitted them
selves splendidly in the work.
1t will be of interest to learn that
William Schuster, an old time Tivoli
barytone, will be in the company, which,
headed by Helena Frederick, is said
to be vocally capable and histrionic-
ally excellent.
