from anything ever seen here before.
Although this piece has been out

new company this season. The inter-
preting company is of unusual magn1-
tude and importance, including the
leading lights in the amusement
world, while the secondary roles are
in competent keeping, and even those
OF minor Importance are given mark

1.-THE Goddess Of Liberty"
Every dramatic critic who witness
ed Mort H. Singers latest musical tri-
umph were loud in their praise as to
the success of "The Goddess of Lib
erty." Not in. recent years has a mu-
steal comedy received more flattering
criticisms than this musical sensa-
ton. The most enthusiastic critics
even went as far to state that it was
worth the price of admission alone to
hear Sallie Fisher sing IF All Moons
Were Honeymoons," the best song hit
that Joseph Howard ever wrote. The
book is complete story and from
the prolific pens of Hough and Ad-
ans. The original cast and produc-
ton comes here almost direct, with
Sallie Fisher as the prima donna and
George Parsons as the comedian, sup
ported by the original Princess COM
pany, including forty handsome girls.
It is the musical treat of the season
and the best production and cast Mort
H. Singer ever sent here.
