appeal to the popular fancy 1t has
been said that one melody that be-
comes popular can make the success
of the play.
Not to be overlooked is the chorus.

who can sing and dance. The vos-
tunes must be striking and pleasing
to the eye. The cost of some OF
these costumes is no small item in
the expense of fitting up an attrac-
ton. Some of the gowns worn by
the chorus cost more than thos
worn by the principals.
