,HIpp's Mid-week Bill Holds Up

The mid.week bill introduced by
Dave Newman's Tabarin Girls at the
Hippodrome yesterday is equally as
good as the first and in some of the
featured numbers it is even better.
The quartette and sextette OF mixed
voices both performed excellently and
rendered several popular, numbers
that received greater applause than
the near classics, but this was likely
due to the original twists given to
the "old familiars." AS has been the
case all week the Interpretation of
every song number on the program
created genuine delight and not one
number got by without being several
times encored. The opening intro.
duces the chorus in its best number,
being set to enhancing Hawaiian
music and appropriate costuming.
Miss Carrie Hawley again charmed
her audience in splendid voice and
striking gowns. The scenic and light.
ing effects contributed much TO the
huge success of the show. Happy
Freyer was conspicuous all the time,
either for his magnificent bass voice
or his droll comedy. Dave Newman
does not get into the spot light as
much as in the previous bill. his time
being nearly all taken up with the
emusic Tor the speciality numbers
which he accompanies with a piano
placed on the stage. The Harmony
