Makes Hit.

In the opinion of John Hyams, of
Hayms and Mcintyre. who present
MY Home Town Girl' at the Grand

best selection for ballet.

composed entirely of red haired girls.
1t would be a marvellous hit.
"Our light and dark haired damsels
get by very nicely. We have a beau
tifully selected chorus and 1 have no
kick on blondes and brunettes. But
once while 1 was in Paris 1 saw a large
group of ballet dancers and the curly
locks of all the women were of auburn
hue''
