THE LEMER-KENNEDy TRIO
and pianist, who were early trained to
do work along the more artistic lines
and after several years of recital and
concert work the trio" found itself
suddenly dissolved by entrance of the
violiniste upon the sea of matrimony
Soon afterwards the balance of the now
broken trio took up their residence in
Harrisburg, and not wishing to give
up their trio work, began to search for
the right one" to take the sisters
place. They Immediately heard of Miss
Lemer and invited her to join them,
and 1t is needless to say that she
proved to be the fright one" and has
since been working increasingly, with
her characteristic eperey to bring this
trio up to Its present high standard.

DALYS MINISTRIES
MAKE A BIG HIT

Before an audience that filled the
evening, Days Ministries presented
an entertainm ent which besides pleas
ing the audience, outshoWs any previ-
Gus appearances on the stage Of this
clever company of artists. From the
rise of the curtain to the finale there
were no dull moments, the excellent
list of up-tO-date numbers selected by
the leader of the troupe, affOrding
many opportunities for generous APP
plause, which was literally distribute
ed. The affair which was arranged
for the benefit of the church of st.
John the Evangelist was also a imam
clal success, and is a tribute to the
efforts Of the committee which has
worked hard for several months ar
ranging the many details in connec-
ton with the affair. Every available
space was filed, members of the
clergy from other churches occupy
ing seats in the main auditorium,
while prominent persons in other
walks of life had the box seats. An
18-piece orchestra furnished accom-
paniment.
The boys were given a big hand
when the curtain arose. After the
usual opening chorus selection the
soloists were called upon for num-.
bers. Andrew Basso, Edward Shee
hey, John Kiniry, John Kilduff and
John O'Brien were never better and
their efforts called for encores. The
double quartet assisted Mr.. Kilduff in
his selection of Dear Rose Marie"
and made a big hit. The end men,
Jack Callahan, Jack Riley, Jimmy
Moore and Jimmy Degnan kept the
crowd in good humor by their funny
stories and song hits. Callahan and
Moore displayed considerable ability
along terpsichorean lines. Degnan
after scoring a hit with his song re-
fused to acknowledge the demand for
an encore, so the chorus had to do it.
In the olio, Mr.. Maranville lived up
to expectations by his singing a
and was one of the bright
features Of the night. The Lynch
Brothers who are always good,
pleased the crowd by their xylophone
selections. The Tommasoni family
rendered mandolin and guitar selec-
lions in their inimitable manner
Johnson and Holden danced their way
TO popularity the work of the boys
formers on the stage. The double
quartet sang severa! songs Of a unique
character, which We're pleasing as we'll
as tuneful.
William j. Farley as interlocutor
was as capable as in the past and his
way of getting the mirth
out Of the jokes Of the end, men added
considerably to the successor the per-
Torrance. The chorus which assisted
the sOloists was as follows:
First tenors, James DAILY, Joseph
O'Brien, George Talbot and Gerald
Cream; second tenors, John Jackson,
John Connolly, Bernard Dougherty
Edward McAvay, Robert Smith, Ed
mund Crowley and Thomas McCue;
first bass William O'Day, Howard
Mortin, Arthur Wasley; second bass,
John r. Burns, Lawrence Cream,
James Root and Joseph Haffey. The
double Quartette consisted Of Messrs
DAILY, L. Cream, G. Cream, O'Day,
Burns, G. Cream and Basso.

Some of the Things People Who Were

When one sees what people who are
handicapped accomplish in the line Of
educating themselves, one almost
wonders if it is not possible to make
the path to education too easy.

time at night to do a little reading
and writing, her stepmother was not

work by (the family was very poor)

DAN SHERMAN is HIT
WITH COMEDY LOVERS

Closing their New Britain engage
ment, Dan Sherman and his company
of entertainers will appear tonight at
Keeneys for the last time in The
Jay Circus" the burlesque specially
in which they have been making a
pronounced hit all week. The act IS
without question one of the most
amusing vaudeville playlets to be
given here in a long time. 1t is rich
in original humOr and unusual S1tua-
lions and it has laugh and a
punch in every line. Sherman is a
comedian of the old school and his
humor Is of infectious quality. He
gets the audience sympathetic at the
start and from that time they are in
his power. There is continuous
mirth while he holds forth with his
associates and the applause during
the act is spontaneous and liberal.
OF an entirely different character
but nevertheless perhaps equally
meritorious is the musical sketch
ole render a number Of selections
from popular operas in delightful
fashion. They also sing some Of the
favorite classical pieces
Frank Wilbur's juggling is a rev.
citation. It differs from that of other
performers of his ilk inasmuch as
his tricks are entirely new and are
different. Wilbur does each Of them
cleverly and his skill is we'll demon
strated during the twenty minutes al
lowed for his act.
Earle Williams in "The Scarlet
Runner Is among the photoplay at
fractions for tonight.
