The Colds" will be the feature
attraction at the Columbia tomorrow.
The act employees the services of some
nine or more cOmely young women and
agile and comic males in kaleido-
scope series Of song, dance and Jest.
The music was written by Joe Good
win and was manufactured especially
for this attraction. The leading COM
edy role is that of a boob" college
boy, who is seized upon by a merry
party OF college girls and impressed
into their show A veracious press de-
en- members Of the aggregation are ex-
ceedingly good to look upon and that
their proficiency in singing and dane
ing is in full keeping with their indi-
vidual and collective beauty. One Of
the most pleasing sketches of the sea-
son will be presented tomorrow by
Miss Leila Shaw and company. 1t Is
"a Truthful Liar" The subject gives
Miss Shaw an opportunity to display
her remarkable dramatic powers, as
the part of the Vampire which she
takes is one that only a polished per-
former can handle. Correlli and Gill
lette, THE Odd Pair" were at the
Columbia two seasons ago and scored
one Of the biggest hits of that year.
Haviland and Thornton, another very
popular act to Columbia patrons, will
appear tomorrow. They have been
seen here twice, each time in a new
act much admired. This year they will
be seen In Insurance" as vehicle built

ture tomorrow. They employ both

alike as comedians and instrumental

sion being the biggest musical comedy
