KISS ME- AGAIN"
AT THE JEFFERSON
Comedy Stimulant and Mu-
steal Tone Features of
Offering Saturday

One of the most successful musical
comedies in which Frederick NJ. Bow
ers is starring will be seen at the JEFF
ferson next Saturday, matinee and
night.
In this production especial stress has
been laid upon two factors-the COM
edy stimulant and the musical tone.
AS to the first it may be said that the
vehicle affords a more convulsingly
funny plot than any other that this ia
nous comedian-star has ever before
been privileged to appear in 1t is
comedy which is out of the beaten
track and which is devoid of the hack
neyed situations which mar SO many
musical shows. You never can Inn
agine just what is coming next, and
the fun interest keeps tense to the
very close of the show. As for the mu-
sic, it may be said that it is Of the
tuneful catchy sort. which is an audi
ence finds itself humming and whist
ing as it picks its way out of the the
atre after the show. Among the num-.
bers which have proved especially
popular are kiss Me Again." IF Ever
Get YOU" Someone" "There's a Dear
Little Girl in a Dear Little Town." my
Vampire Girl" Sahara" Love Me
All the Time Il Love That Tune" eff
You Knew What I Know" etc Mr..
Bowers will be remembered for his
great success in His Bridal Night"
Kiss Me Again already gives promise
not only of duplicating that success
but of exceeding it. The best Of rl1u-
steal comedy talent surrounds Mr.
Bowers. There is a beautiful pea
cock Alley" chorus and everything that
the lovers of the artistic might desire
in the way of gorgeous costuming and
brilliant scenic effects.
