At the Ditmas

Johnny on the Spot" to be seen
at the Ditmas today and tomorrow,
in which Hale Hamilton. the brilliant
young actor, will be seen, is a play
which cannot be equalled for its
spontaneous and infectious humor
and irresistible romance.
The story is that of a young man
who has an aversion to rushing,
through life in a frenzied manner, Gas
he puts it, but who. on the contrary,
believes that by waiting for what he
desires it will. in the course of time.
come to him. Love, however. is the
only thing that ONE and with it a.
train of demands-including that he
rescue the girl he loves from the
hands of schemers and villains. That
this cannot be done in the SLOW and
lax manner in which he has been in
the habit of conducting his affairs
suddenly dawns on him and. like a
flash of lightning, he changes from a
siaw, easy-going dreamer into a gal
vanic and red-blooded young dynamo
who believes that he is capable of
cramming into two minutes what the
average man gets into W days.
Kitty Gordon in The Unwilling
Hand is the added attraction.
