MEMOLI AND HIS BAND
WILL BE ATTRACTION
Splendid Concert Programme Ar
ranged for March 16 at Jefferson.
Premier Appearance

Philip Memoli and his new band of
40 Observation-Disclosures will be heard in a
grand concert at the Jefferson theatre
next Sunday afternoon. March 16. This
will be its premier appearance. Many re-
hearsals have been held and those who
have had the privilege of attending one
recently speak in unstinted praise of Mr..
Memolfe organization. Memoli had a
good band before going abroad, but his
three years study in italy has not only
broadened him, it is said, but it has made
q great musician of him,
Among educated musicians acquainted
with Mr. Memoli he is esteemed as a
master who not only possesses strong
elements of leadership, but one who is
1, able to interpret large works with au-
fhority. His band will be a revelation
to the music loving public of Birming-
ham. The south has never had such q
concert band as his. and some of the
well known bands OF the north that go
on concert tours and draw large audi
ences are not equal to il.
The band Will be assisted by Mr.. Mem
oil, harp, and Mrs. Carolyn Lum Cole,
soprano. This will be the programme:
Symphonic March (Chrieo).
William Tell overture (RossinD.
ssMef1stofeIe, Act Sd (Boito).

HARRY LAUDER TO
BE HERE TUESDAY
Famous Comedian VIII Be Strong
Attraction at Jefferson Theatre
Matinee and Night

''PawlSy and pragmatic' was the phrase
used by an eminent man of letters re-
Gently to describe Harry Lauder, who
comes to the Jefferson theatre for Tues
day matinee and night. An English re-
viewer continued the description by writ
ing, after a performance by Lauder In
Leeds: 1T was the pawkiness of Harry
Lauder's humor that ticl1led the audience,
when the great little man served up one
or two of those items that are more
Scotch delineations than songs. First, the
northern trait was seen in a grocer's err
rand boy, in whom humor blended with
a shrewd commercial instinct found eX-
preston, despite the restraining influence
os a giant humbug. There was con-
finuity of the same pawIy element in the
middle aged Scot who followed. and as
Harry Lauder screwed up his left eye, in
a pucker that extended from the nostrll
to eyebrow, the pawkiness seemed to
become concentrated. He has mobility
of feature that changes the tight Tipped
Scotch austerity in a twinkling to
xatuous grin of self complacency. And he
has voice that alone would carry him
through. In Harry Lauder one sees
Scotch comedian who, unlike many who
have followed him, does not reply for his
comedy effects mainly on the skirling OF
his kilt"

LAUDER TRAVELS IN
A LUXURIOUS CAR
Carries Scotch Chef to Prepare
Native Dainties-Big Jumps on
Southern Tour

When Harry Lauder arrives in Birming-
ham he will be housed in luxurious
private car, the Olympia. 1t Is equipped
with brass beds and many other fanciful
concets not customary in transit. 1t
has a dining room, library, smoking
and lounging rooms and servants quar-
ters. Lauder brings with him his own
chef from Scotland, to prepare for him
his native dainties on tour.
Behind the Olympia are two Pullmans,
accommodating the members of the In
ternational Speciality company, secretaries,
II musicians, six Highland bagpipers,
press agents and the other officials and
flunkies incidental to the engagement.

unique departures. Though he has trav-
eled five times across the continent north
of the Mason and Dixon line, this is the
first time that William Morris. his Amer
lean manager, has trusted his high-priced
star to the exigencies of southern travel.
In order to realize Q profit on the ex-
penditures of tour ike this 1t is. neces-
sary to travel fast. a4s-
However, this year the railroads have
entered into.a contract with Morris, giving
him for most of the tour a special en-
gine and guaranteeing the comedians ar
rival everywhere on time. In the event
that any performance Is missed because
of railroading delay or accident, the rail-
roads agree to indemnity Morris to the
full. extent of the capacity of the theatre
where such performance is made impossi-

Through this arrangement Morris has
been able to lay out route In which
long distances are traversed on schedules

Lauder will be. seen in 20 cities in /,

never plays on Sundays even where this
is permitted.

A LONG and successful tour of
y the Gilbert and Sullivan opera

A LONG and successful tour of
"a the Gilbert and Sullivan opera
4 \ company, under the direc-
ton of the Messrs. Shubert. end
ed in Montreal March l. This
organization contains a number of
well known people, among them
De Wolf Hopper. The tour be-
gan July 81, 1912, in San Fran
cisco, more than $50 perform
ances being given. 1t is estimated
that over 100000 persons attended
notable revivals of such favorite
operas as "Pinafore,' "The Pirates
of Penzance" and "The Mikado" Even
when performed indifferently these
standard pieces afford a certain
amount of enjoyment. With such a
capable company as that put out by
the Shuberts, their presentation must
indeed be great pleasure to theatre
goers whose tastes have not been
vitiated by musical comedy. There
will probably always be demand for
the Gilbert and Sullivan successes and
their revival from time to time on an
ambitious scale cannot but prove pop
ular. 1t is announced that the third
annual tour Of the Gilbert and Sulli-
van Opero company, with the same
organization intact, will begin in Au-
gust, 1913 1t is quite likely that the
larger southern cities will be visited.
The management of the jefferson
theatre has made a valiant effort this
season to induce promptness on the
part of patrons who attend the night
performances A curtain that rises at
8:15 D. m. has been insistently adver-
tised and the majority of theatre
goers are beginning to realize that a
theatrical performance can really
start at S:15 o'clock at night. Per-
sons who have been accustomed to
drop into the theatre at quarter OF
8 quite often discover that they have
missed the first act. AS result late
arrivals are not SO numerous as
formerly, although there are times
when about half the audience is
seated after the performance begins.
