Richard Carrie, in "Furs and
Frills," is announced as the attrac-
ton for the Brandeis theater for
four nights, starting tomorrow, with
a special matinee on Christmas day.
This is a production which can be
especially recommended for theater
parties. The name of Garlic is al
ways guarantee for the fitness of
a production and in "Furs and
Frills" there is no exception. There
is plenty of good, sparkling Garlic
comedy, there is a typical Garlic
beauty chorus, there is tuneful
music, attractive costumes, pretty
stage pictures and all that goes to
make a musical show of the high
est order. Mr.. Carrie has a role
which shows him in slightly diff
ferent lines from any heretofore es-
sayed by him and is proving an
even greater laughing success than
ever before.
"The Smarter Set" with Salem
Tut Whitney and J. Homer Tut
will open weeks stay at the Boyd

their new musical comedy, with a
full force of the old favorites and a
number of new ones. This organi-
cation is growing in strength and
popularity with each return to the
city, and the engagement already
looks like huge success.
