Matinee Belief Refuted

Some one once said in the dim
and distant past that Phoenix was
not and never would be a matinee
city. The fact of matinee failures
by the score were cited to convince
that this city did not take kindly
to performances in the afternoon All
this leads to the fact that the dope
was wrong somewhere. Whatever
the cause the Columbia has refuted
the claim that Phoenix is not a
matinee city" Since the Redmond
company took home at the Adams
street house the afternoon shows
have been growing in popularity I'M
til the theater is scarcely able to
hold those who come out for the
matinees. Yesterday afternoon the
new leading people and incidentally
the splendid "A Woman's Way" they
are gracing drew the banner We'd
nesday matinee of the history of the
engagement and thus goes glimmer-
ing another tradition, for matinees
