Americanized 10 make IL acceptable
TO an American audience.
The piece. which is the production
OF half dozen English writer's. Is No
better or no worse than other com
positions OF the same character, but
IL is bright and tuneful, trimming
with sweet and catchy airs, with just
enough plot 10 keep up the interest.
Daniels appears as the Marquis De
ST. Gauthier. an impecunlous noble.
and the fun hinges on. his efforts 10
marry his son To his wealthy ward.
OF course the son promptly falls IN
love with the miller's daughter, and.
finally. marries her. but all ends well.
and the Marquis saves mis- castle from
falling into the hands OF his creditors.
Daniels is much In the limelight dur
ing the two acts, and during most OF
the time he keeps the audience con
vulsed with laughter. Some OF his
laugh.producing methods are not new,
but they are funny, nevertheless, IRE
sistibly so at times, and he was forced
10 respond To curtain call On this
occasion he rid himself OF the same
tumble OF big words that has served
him on other occasions. but It seemed
as funny as ever.
The balance of the applause was
shared by Miss Christine Nelson, as
Babette. the Miller's daughter, Miss
Elsa RYAN. as Toinette. maid Of the
Marquis, and Martin Brown, as Bap-
tiste Boubilion. the chef Miss Neil

The chorus. while equal to all de-
mands, is not the handsomest aggre-
Saticn ever seen. but vocally IL is up
10 the standard. carefully trained and
tastefully gowned at all times.
Several tuneful and catchy airs have
been provided, the prettest being
