Of n century ago. The first roof gar

fruitful mind of Rudolph Aronson

atrical men To look To the roofs uf their
thcaters, and it was not long after that
the Casino roof garden had rivals. Half
dozen big roof gardens are doing
rushing business every summer nisht
IN che metropolis. In addition to the
regular shows the majority of them
provide dancing and cabaret entertain
ment, Some of them are highly at
tractivc places and the performances
are of the best. The greatest magnet
for the out-oft town visitors is the
Madison Square roof garden. doubtless

old, came down stairs in her night

climbed up, got some matches, and
thought she would try to relight the

caught fire. She ran up stairs and
