beautiful costumes
Billy Kelly and Charles Country,

Mr.. Stafford and a cast including
Marie Stone. Chief White Wing, and
Alec Brady with special mention due

which won applause from opening
to closing scene. The episodes oc-

Stafford full opportunity for a dis
play of his remarkable talent in
whistling, initiating birds, insects
and the noises of articles in every
day use and with which all are
familiar. They also allow for Miss
Stone singing a beautiful Indian

to give a thrilling war dance when
he rescues his daughter from the

the police for weeks, is not known

Startling adventures. daring es-

The Purcella Brothers dominate
the bill with their lively steps;
Kyra does well with her various
dance numbers; Joe Keno and
Rosie Green provide laughter with
their chatter-and Nancy Gibbs, as
sisted by Pierce De Reeder, is a
bright light with well selected
repertoire of vocal numbers.

Raymond Hitchcock, the come
dian, favOrs a revolutions. He an
nounced his idea during the pres
entation of Ziegfeld's 'Follies" at
the National last night. His
speech ELECTED cheers. Having ac-
complished a successful revolution,
Mr. Hitchcock would place all ad-
vocates of sumptuary laws under
strict compulsion TO obey their
own mandates. More cheers fol-
lowed.
Hitchcock is the chief comedian
of the current "Follies," though
Fannie Brice and Ray Dooley have
much the best of the comedy ma
terial. This latest edition of the
"Follies" is not quite up to the
Ziegfeld standard. 1t Is not, for in
stance, so entertaining an affair
as the recent touring model of the
Midnight Frolic," and 1t suffers
from a decided poverty of music
and humor.
On the score of girls. gowns,
color, costumes and settings, the
current "Follies," is thoroughly
Ziegfeldian but there is an un-
fortunate tendency throughout to
reboil the skeletons of past COM
edy scenes and to trust to shift
and change to gloss over an inher-
ent emptiness that is frequently
apparent.
For instance, John Steel's robust
tenor is missing from the lineup
and his work has fallen upon Joe
Schenck and John Clarke, neither
of whom are particularly consoling
as substitutes for the silvery-
voiced Steele. William c. Fields.
the former juggler, is now a COM
edian, minus most of the Jugglery.
The utilization of music by Victor
Herbert and Rudolph !. Friml is
hardly noticea BILE in the score. al
though Gene Buck and Dave
Stamper have given the show two
of its three song hits.
The humorous highlights of the
performance are confined to some
four or f1ve episodes. The first of
these is altogether tame, in which
Fields does a microscopic bit O'
comedy juggling and In which
Hitchcock contributes a parody of
Thurston's magic. The second, "It
Happened in Brooklyn" gives Ray
Dooley an opportunity to offer her
spoiled-chiId selection. with Hitch

Dooley and w. c. Fields in their

Barrymore in The Lotus Eater"
is first seen as a broken old man,

command to save his son from the
sorrows and the disappointments he
has undergone. Then he assumes
