SEAT SALE FOR
The PRIVATE
SECRETARY"
TICKETS ARE GOING RAPIDLY AND
IT'S UP TO PUBLIC TO BUY
AT ONCE

Quite a number of people do not
realize that the sale of the tickets for
"The Private Secretary" already has
started. The fact Of the matter is
that tickets have been on tap at Muir
phey's since Friday last and that up
to last night over 200 of the $40 down
stairs seats have been disposed Of
There is no advertising bluff about
this. Those who had planned to pur-
chase their tickets later will be sadly
left unless they get busy now This
unusual sale bespeaKs great inter-
est in the Private Secretary" and
doubtless a large crowd will witness
the production.
The participants in the play are re-
hearsing nightly and will pc ready to
give a first class, high class enter
tainment next Thursday night. While
in the past Edward j. McWenie has
done some splendid work in amateur
productions, it is safe to say that as
the private secretary he will far sur
pass any previous performance To
those who cannot remember sc. j."
without thinking of his contagious
smile it will be a surprise to know
that he gets all his "stuff'-his funny
stuff '-over without the semhlance
OF his famous grin
AS "Cattermole" George B. Morfi-
son is great. Mr.. Morrison will be
remembered for his plendid work in
the Elks' Minstrels. His performance
of the testy old uncle in "The Pri-
vate Secretary" will outshine anything
he has ever done before, because
when he steps on the stage he loses
his own identity and is "Cattermole.
Bert Adams hardly can be imagined
in a serious part, especially by those
who saw him in the minstrels some
time back. The fact remains that as
"Mr. Marsland'' Mr.. Adams will be
an agreeable surprise to his many
friends. His scene with Cattermole
is one Of the richest bits Of the show.
