 In many of the large productions an orcer is issued that either con- pels the members ot the company 10 work that week on half salary or lay off altogether, for the reason that the managers of the shows on the road realize that their patrons arc too busy doing their Christmas shopping to think of sittng through three hours of show, no matter how meritorious the same may be. There are exceptions to all rules, and the additionally proyerbial one in this respect is found in vaudeville. The managers of vaudeville houses make t q rule to provide the keenest, best and most interesting bill the week before Christmas. for the reason that one can run in and be sure of their moneys worth in any act they may have just that much time to look at. so the Princess for the following week has provided five features.
