COHAN'S MARY
AT JEFFERSON
MONDAY, FEB. a

Mary" at the Jefferson thea
February IA. George NJ. Conan will
present the greatest musical success,
in the history of the stage, Mary"
a sweet story, wonderfully told. with
vein of humor that Is Irresistible,
melodies that you will not easily for
get, and dancing that will make you
gasp with delight.
The story of the play has to do with
a young man with an inventive turn
Of mind, who, in an effort to make
secure, the financial standing of his
mother, who is a leader in the social
world, hits upon the happy idea of a
portable house, the selling point of
which is the sure elimination of the
prevailing evil, the high cost of liv-
ing. The well laid plans of our ener-
getic young hero come to grief, but
accidentally, he becomes a millionaire
over night through the discovery of
oil on the land where he had erected
a number of his portable houses; of
course the inevitable happens, our news
ly rich young man returns from the
west and marries the girl of his
dreams, Mary"
The book and lyrics of Mary are
by OTTO HarDach and, Frank Mandcl,
and the music by Lou Hrsch. Mr..
Conan has assembled a distinctive
cast of principals, and a chorus of
girls who are an outstanding feature
because of their beauty and grace
their excellent singing and captivat-
ing and bewildering dancing. The cos
tuning is rare treat to the eye, and
the scenic embellishments all that
could be desired. The ensembles are
the most striking stage pictures ever
seen in musical comedy and reflect the
genius of the postmaster of this art,
Julian Mitchell.
