ADJUSTMENTS
LYRIC.

Robinson Crusoe, Jr,' the Winter
Gardens latest offering, with Al. .Jol-
son and company numbering nearly
POO, including the Winter Garden or
chestra, is announced as a coming at
traction at the Lyric Theatre, starting
on March 1lth. The engagement will
be for one week and will incluA matt
nces on Wednesday and Saturday.
The attraction comes here almost di-
rect from Chicago where it finished a
Sensationally successful engagement af-
ter proving the biggest sensation of New
York Winter Garden.
Jolson is too well known in Cincn-
natl to need special introduction, as he
played here three or four times be-
fore. As usual he will be surrounded
by an excellent company. This time the
Winter Garden management is sending
here the absolutely original New York
cast, including Lawrence D'Orsay,
Claude Fleming Frank Carter Bowers,
Walters and Crocl<er Frank Grace,
Johnnie Berkes Kitty Doner Mabel
Withcc, Isabel Rodriguez, May Poth,
Frank Holmes, Lee Phelps, Alexander
Dagmar, Bert Dunlap, Cline Russell,
George Thornton, Alice Wood Eleanor
Ryley and many others.
"Robinson Crusoc, Jr.' is described
as an original musical extravaganza in
two acts and twelve scenes. The book
is by Edgar Smith and Harold Ate
ridge, the latter author being response
bic for the lyrics as well. The music
is by Sigmund Romberg and James
fIanlcy ]. {. Huffman has staged the
production, while the musical numbers
are the work of Allan X Foster
Mr.. Jolson's opportunities are many,
varied and rich and he takes advantage
of them all. He is first seen as a
"fresh' chauffeur. then as Friday,
leading the wild goat. Unexpectedly he
meets Crusoc, which character is made
particularly striking and handsome by
Mr.. Claude Fleming, remembered for
his fine appearance and wonderful voice.
Crusoe Immediately adopts Friday.
Things look bright for them until a
band of cannibals appear on the scene.
Friday encounters them alone and how
he drives them away is one of the fun
ny episodes OF the play. Eventually a
pirate ship anchors off shore and Crusoe
and Friday leave the island as CaptiveS

finally the Gold Ball Room at the mil

Foremost among these is the con

Indeed it is this remarkable combina-

is the time for labor to speak. Inasmuch

the wage earners among themselves
shall agree upon.

responsible representatives of the labor
element shall consider this entire sub

for metal workers employed in Govern

were then in Washington comforting
