asking people where he could md
the 'Tady who helps children" He
found her in the S. P. c. c. office,

help she gave TO another child.
The boy told a pitiful story Of neg
Iect and brutality, every word OF
which proved to be true upon inves-
hRanon. He was taken into the Gus
tody Of the society and only yester-
day when visited in his new sur
roundings said, II am glad now all
The time"
The society Is planning to raise

with sume, experience In the accumu.
lation of the pleasing details which &c
| to make up musical comedy have drawn
on their considerable resources, and
while there are spots where the music
and the comedy seem to BIO Just Bit
shiny in the seam, the total result is
entirely satisfactory.
Nora Bayes is in It; and that ought
to be enogh for most folks. Her
vibrant personality dominates the
piece, and consequently everybody has
q good time, even the troupers. In
her mushier moments there are better
actresses than Miss Bays; but there
are few wittier condolences and none
friendlier. She has the art Of making
you feel that you've known her all your
life, though you may never have set
eyes on her until the curtain went UP.
In fact you know her so we'll that when
she comes to the pettlng parts, you
just know she's kidding.
There Is nothing in this to take YOUR
mind off the vital matter of being en-
tertained. There Is no elaborate trop-
ical settings with purple moons and
such interferences. Nor la the chorus
so cumbersome that the tired business
man Is going to be haunted by the
fear that he's missing some shapely
gesture in the shuttle. There are ten
girls in this chorus and all of them
eminently satisfactory. 1t is the zip
piest ensemble Of years.
So full of pep Is this chorus that the
sinuous convolutions of one of It's most
enthusiastic members came near to
stopping the show last night. That
was in "Tom Tom" jazz number, which
Harry Richnan sings and dnncas Tho
cordial cooperation of the 1.-the blonde
lady on the extreme right--chorus
girls should be numbered like football
completely bedevilled the upper reaches
of the crowded house, and not until the
energetic Mr.. Richman had danced
himself into a state Of collapse, and
out OF his collar, was the number per-
mitted to pass on.
Miss Bayes has been generously en-
dowed by the authors with good lines.
Literally ample support Is given her by
the voluminous Florence Morrison, and
Arthur Uttry is satisfactorily cast as
the young man with the millions who
is shy about women--what more do you
need to know about the plot?
Franker Woods does his drunk stuff
with aplomb, and beside Mr.. Richman
the cast is fitted with three useful as
we'll as ornamental dance teams in the
persons of Lorin Raker and Edna Hir-
bard, Max Hoffman jr. and Norma Ter
ris, and George Brown and Eva Tay-
lor. Besides "Tom Tom" there are two
sure fire song hits, dreaming Alone"
and "You Need Some One" And the
"Topics of the Day" piece in the first
act is triumph Of sheer insanity.

ample agility combined with smooth

adapted to the Mozart sonata and De.
busy Arabesque while he was able to
command varied expression and suff-
cient force in the weightier Schumann
number. Repetitions and extra numbers
were added for good-sizcd, loud hand

Pushkin; Count Tolstoy's "By the

commended. BE-
