 Comedy Success
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1919-10-04

Don't have your new winter ward robe designed until you have seen 'tOh. My Dear F. Ray Comstocll's sixth New York Princess theatre musical comedy success. which will come to the Park theatre next Mon day, Oct. 6, one night engagement, direct from seven months at the Prin- cess theatre, New York, and four months at the Wilbur uneart, Boston. Th.s is a bit of real inside advice to the fair sex, and 1t should be needed, { 3r never before has there been so m ny and varied exquisite designs and creations for morning, afternoon and evening wear. There is a. de- sign for everyone from the most con servative to the most bizarre, and they are most certainly worthy of copying.
 It has often been said that men go to the theatre to look at the pretty girls, and that women go to see the styles If this be true, the playgo- CTS of the Park have quite a, treat in store for them. for the gowns in ''Oh My Dear!'' are the very latest and sularsGs1 or -'arisian creations, while the girls arc the dainJiest and pret- tiest of New York society's debutantes They are truly a cure for tired eyes.
