ton setting aside Wednesday. July

IL tha; every resident become well

tic advertiser for his home town fac
tories.
The manufacturing committee have
addressed letter to every manufac-
tgrer in Rutland asking that the idea
be carried out In this city. The letter
states: This association is in full
accord with the movement and be-
lieyes ii will be Of material benefit
for Rutland industries, as well as Rut-
land, ii We can arrange with you so
that all who may desire TO visit your
plant Wednesday, July Is, may be
shown through, and in this manner be-
come familiar with what We are do
ing in Rutland. We trust that you

DAINTY; NOT NOVEL
New Comic Opera Opens at Ca
sino-HerOine in UncOm-
m0uly Pretty FrOcks.
INA CLAIRE AS HEROINE
Lady Lurury"-At the Casino.

Tho Casino Theatre Is now occupied by
Fred whitney's comic opera company pre-
senting Lady Luxury" which Is in two
acts. Its music was composed by william
Schroeder. while the libretto is the work
of Rida Johnson Young. The composer
is altogether unknown TO fame. Mrs.
Young is. on the other hand. the author
Of several plays and lIbrettos. But in
Lady Luxury" one is unfortunately quite
az amateur!sh as the other Mr..
Schroeder's music Is composed of alto
gether conventional echoes OF other and
earlier operetta scores. and Mrs. Young's
text departs at no point from the most
familiar material of the libretto writer.
Nothing has been done by the author. to
add distinction to this well worn stun
Tho has used.
There are some popular personalities
revealed in the two acts. Ina Claire slim
and graceful. Is the heroine. and Alan
Nude who grows more incorrigibly Brit
ssh tho longer he remains here. Is her
brother in the play. lie is an interchangeable
dancer. Then Harry Conor has some OPP
portunities to display his amusingly petu-
liant manner Emile Lea, slender and
graceful danced as Russian ballerna,
Forrest Hun sang often. and there were
dainty backgrounds for all the scenes.
Arthur Albro is the explosive tenor. The
whole production was dainty in tone. with
some uncommonly pretty frocks for the
heroine.
Whether Lady Luxury is OF sufr-
GENTLY sturdy material to survive now
adays is by no means assured.
