Whirl" is one of the greatest anti
dotes to earthly misery revealed dur
ing this theatrical season, and seek
ers after real pleasure will find the
Temple their coverted haven.
The beauty about this show is that
it is not flash in the pan. 1t starts
at high speed and seems to gather
momentum every moment One spark
ling feature follows another SO rapid
ly that the spectator may be pardon
ed if he feels just little lost or con-
fused by the rotary motion.
The "Whirl" goes it's merry way
revealing colorful effects, wrought by
artistic hands, and striking scenes
arranged by expert artists. There is
a chorus of girals that is good to look
upon, collectively or individually, with
costumes that makes the spectator
keep his eye alert and his mind open
for further beauties The scenes
are gorgeous, the many stage pictures
showing fine judgment and artistic
taste.
The girls of the chorus are kindly
and viyacious, and generally ramble
through the aisles, Furnishing the
finger nails of the tickled-to-death
men, and appealing to masculine
hands to button up their backs, meet
ing with no refusafs.
The "Whirr' has cast that makes
of this season, including Blanche
Ring, Charles Winninger, Winona
Winter. Jay Gould and several others
whose ability none can question. Miss
Ring is truly Belle Broadway" and
she is so bright that the city highway
that bears her name might well be
glad to bask in her glory. Winona
Winter does some of the best work
of her stage career in this revue.
Charles Winninger is a comedian
of many activities, enhancing the
reputation he had previously won as
funmaker of distinctive manner and
of varied talents.
Jay Gould is another whose work
has refreshing air of breeziness,
which helps a great deal to help the
"Whirl' go round. The work of Ger
trude Mcdonald is excellent She

lovely opening of the Button Me Up
the Back number, and she also does
sdance excentrique with Inez Courteny,
with whom she was also one of the
1.-Two Little Girls in Blue" There are
dances by Maxson and Brown, who

baseball game with the audience by
eight girls, comedy in the passport
and income tax Office, delightful Baby
