In Time of Peace Prepare for War was the finale of part one.
 Ten minutes with Neil O'Brien's or chestra followed, and then came part two, devoted to The Brony Yacht club on their annual pilgrimage, staged by James German. The ensemble num- bers were admirably executed by ex- pert dancers and The Old Dominion Line was given by Charles Hillard. as sisted by the company.
 Then jolly, good naturcd, fat Neil presented The Jitney Joy Bus, a bur- lesque on the latest rapid transit pas- senger service. It was ,a continuous scream from beginning to end.
