GAYETY.

the Gayety theater this week. can
zeal hits and light line of painless
comedy. A remarkable thing about
the show is that the leading lady
and her companion do not appear in
tights once during the entire produc-
ton.
George b. Scanlon, Mark Adams
and Eddie Nelson handle the comedy
and Scanlon, as Peter Potts, an avia-
tor, seems TO be the lightweight
member OF the trio Adams Is a
German comedian with a delightful
gurgle. and Nelson has n good sing

Dick Knowles acts as the marriage
broker and plays an important part

Unfortunately the comedians drag
