the one who invites him to come tc

he has to sell, and if his advertisement

THE DINGBATS" AT THE VAL
ENTINE NEXT SUNDAY.

The tales of matrimonial and do
mestic crafts that have foundered on
the rocks of the present day life have
furnished the stage with most of its
popular amusements, but new twist
has been discovered by Frank M.
Stammers in the characters invented
by HERMAN, of "The Ding-Bats" and
the family upstairs, that brings to
life the everyday topic of the family
who lives above US, and from which
he has constructed the basis of what
is proclaimed as the funniest musical
comedy of today. The plot is a real
necessity and not to be forgotten ele-
ment of this musical show and both
the action of the play itself and of
the musical trimmings are rapid and
the cast of comedians, including the
radium comedian, Bobby Barry, and
vocalists are said to be entirely ade-
quate.
The management has great deal
to say as to the production, calling
particular attention to the setting for
the first act, which depicts full
grown restaurant of the popular type
at which Mr.. Dingbat is employed and
which is elaborately constructed in de-
tail from the actual cooking to the
serving of the real food. This has
never been attempted on the stage.
The setting for the second act is also
unique showing Metropolitan roof
garden. During the action of the
comedy number of the most tuneful
song hits will be heard.
"The Dingbats" will be presented at
popular prices, with 25c matinees Sun
day, Wednesday and Saturday.
