+ Direct from the country and with
no stops between, the "rube" inn
personated by Ralph Hunnewell en-
tered upon the lively cabaret scene.
He was all that could be anticipated,
every detail of his costume giving
evidence Of the farm. And without
being escorted he marched to the.
head table and took seat beside
the interlocutor. He then gave his
order to the waiter, ordering the reg
ular cabaret dinner. In three in
stallments This dinner was served to
him, first a bottle of carbonated
water, then a bunch of celery and
then broiled live lobster. When
the latter was served to the rural
visitor, he announced with indigna-
ton that that was the limit, he had
drank the water, he had smelled
the flowers. but he would be hanged
if he would eat the bug. Mr.. Hun
newell then sang the song. when

Square. was the title of the song
given in a pleasing manner by Marie
Simpson. this being followed by the
duet number, "All She'd Say Was
Umh hum" sung by Holway and
Bangs. A very pretty song with
senic effect was that sung by Miss
Dorothy Gray and Theodore Tschal-
mer and entitled EVERY TIME L See
You Dear" In the chorus Miss Gray
sang from the gallery, and in the
second chorus, she sang from the
rear of the hail. This song was given
most effectively and won rounds of
applause.
Henry Bangs then put across the
selection, 1--WE Got the Blues for My
Kentucky Home" being assisted by
William Holway. and a much appre-
ciated feature of the chorus was the
singing of "My Old Kentucky Home"
by. the entire company, while the
endmen artists sang the chorus num-

most charmingly given:
Look For the Silver Lining" was
the song given by Miss Margaret
Cunningham and Kenneth Merrill

sung by Miss Cunningham and the
entire company. Miss Cunningham
has a pleasing voice and personality
and at the curtainfall the hall echoed
with the applause.
The jokes which were put over by
the endmen between the various
songs, were too numerous to mention,
but suffice to say they were new and
snappy and were surely winners as
mirth producers. In particular the
ouija board scene where the spirits
were called upon by the endmen to
reveal deep mysteris,' and the jump
ing cootie joke where the wrong
,'"cootie" was found in the audience
were high for real fun.
The members of the dancing cho-
rus were as follows: Misses Fife
Clough, Gray, Hendee,. Lewis, Stone,
Nelson, Folsom, Rideout, Glidden,
Messer, Purinton, Hayes, Simpson,
Bangs. Holway, J Hopkins; Messrs.
