After seeing Miss Kathleen Math- ew,s pictorial review of Beautiful Ireland" recently in Waterbury, the editor of the American of that city in a stirring editorial endorsement of the entertainment said among other things:
 Miss Mathew showed pictures of Ireland, the castles old and new of the country the ruins, the picturesque scenery, the quaint villages a market day scene in a small town and many cottage homes. She did not pick out the most squa1id cottage and present it as the typ@she said those she showed were the ordinary cottage homesethere wasn't a. pig to be seen, and in showing her pictures she talked of them as the things to which she was accustomed She showed an Irish colleen. but she didn't look like the girls of Synge's plays. She showed Rory O'Moore, and he looked like what the grandfa thers-Sterling char actered men-of a large part of the audience must have looked like. Ire

land, as Miss Mathew shows it-every little while she recdtes the sWestest of Irish songs-ds the Ireland Of song and poetry, the Ireland that the young Irdsh-Ameriean dreams of as the home Of his ancestors. And Miss Matthew has the map of Ireland on her face and the musfc of it in her voice, so she knows whereof she speaks. If there is an Ireland of The Playboy Of the Western World why discover it, when there is so beautiful a. one as that shown by Miss MatheW?',
 It may be seen, therefore, what a treat is in store for those who go to see and hear Miss Mathew at Poli' s Plaza. theatre tomorrow evening
