NATIONAL.
"Going Up" Is Here
On Return Engagement.

"Going Up is to play a return en-
gagement at the National Theater for
the week commencing tonight.
Otto Harbach always writes clever
lyrics. He has had hand in the
making OF fully a dozen clever musi-
cal comedy books and comedy dramas.
Louis Hirsch, who wrote the music
for Going Up" has probably as
many big song hits to his credit as
any other composer in the country.
Going Up" is known as the song
hit show" The "Tickle Toe" dance
number has made the biggest success
OF its kind since "The Merry Widow"
waltz. And so, with the excellent
cast and production finished by the
producers, Going Up" has developed
nto a whirlwind success.
"Going UP" has been the biggest
musical success of the last Ave sea-
sons. This Is a matter OF record, sup
ported by capacity house figures for
first engagements and by the inces-
SAINT demand for return engagements
wherever this banner Cohan and Har-
ris show has been seen. The splendid
cast remains virtually unchanged,
but there are new costumes and set
tings to keep the show up to its for
mer high standard.

FAIR SEX PATRONIzES
SMOKELESS GAYETY

That the profile n that has long con-
'ronted Manager Harry Jarboe, of tn"
iayety Theater-that OF attracting
!ady patronage-appears to be COM
'letely solved. seems proved by the
onstantly Increasing attendance on
he part OF the fair sex. This victory
is due, II is believed. to the anti
moking policy that was inaugurated
the beginning of the season. re-
noving the last of the prejudices
against attendance by women. At
matinees, particularly. It is not at all
unusual to find half the orchestrs
hairs occupied by ladies and at night
many accompany their husbands to
the theater.
Manager Jarboe's elation at his sue
.ess in this particular is not due to
my prospect of Increased revenue.
ut rather because he has proved to
he ladies of Washington that tn"
'erage burlesque performance Is
ust as free from offcnse as the aver
,ge big time" musical review.
