POTASH AND PERLMUTTER. =
Next Sunday, Matinee and Night, at
the Rhode Opera House
Not Movie.


Ask almost any playgoer what play
of the last ten years he remembers
most affectionately and he will answer
Potash and Perlmutter.' Since the
two famous characters took New York
by storm two years ago, they have
practically become incorporated into
contemporary history. Their wit and
their wisdom, their joys and their sor-
rows, their quarrels and their peace
makings are so thoroughly human that
one must be hardened beyond redemp-
tion not to feel response to their
emotions.
The story Of "Potash and Perl
mutter'' deals with the fortunes Of
"Abe" and Mawrusso who risk their
all in order to save from Russian pri-
son young man who has fed that
country to avoid persecution. The play
teens with laughs, but there are also
many sweet love passages and touches
of pathos that appeal to the heart
and give to the comedy its lasting
hold on the audience.
"Potash and Perlmutter'' will re-
turn to the Rhode Opera House Thea
ire for an engagement of matinee and
night Sunday, January 9th dwadv
