 The "Follies" has some very tune tul songs. They might be better sung, but no fault could be found with the manner in which they are staged. Some beautiful and elabor- ate effects are achieved. with the aid or artistic scenery and costumes, of which there Is the greatest variety and not all scant as a summer girls bathing suit. although some of them could be placed in that category Most of the song numbers were led by George Dale and Judy Carson. who has a winsome smile. Sweet Sixteen" Is one of the haunting meio- lies already familiar to lovers of popular music. This song and I'll Be Your Valentine" were both ad- mirably staged. The Song of the Samovar," a Russian conception, gave opportunities for handsome cos tuning and stage effects and intro duced the ablest dancers of the com pany, Antonio Nellie and Anna Nu- rova. whose dancing was one of the most enjoyable features of the, per- formance. Miss Nurova. In particu- lar, is an artist of unusual merit, whose skill and grace added a great deal to the more spectacular scenes. "Parfum d Amour" was striking for It's pictorial beauty. There was plenty of good dancing, however, X char acteristic of most of the revues.
 In addition to the principals al ready mentioned, Kathryn Richmond. George Schiller and Abbott Adams showed ability in the various comedy skits in which they took part.
 "The Follies" will be repeated at a matinee this afternoon and again tonight, ending the engagement.

SPLENDID AUDIENCE TO
 GREET REINALD WERRENRATH

When Reinald werrenrath, the great American baritone makes his premier bow tomorrow evening at the Jefferson in the Opening Con- cert of the season of 1s27-23, of the -All Star Concert (Mrs. Richard F. Johnston and Mrs. Orline Ship man) a splendid audience will greet this distinguished artist.
 The seat sale indicates one of the most representative audiences ever assembled to hear an artist in this city and the beautiful program which MT. Werrenrath will present, his ac- companist. Harry Speir, being one of the most notable in this line in America. will charm his hearers and prove to Birmingham that his talents have not been exaggerated, nor his art too highly praised.
 There are still some desirable seats left for the Rcinald Werrenrath concert for Wednesday evening.

tertaining. Lou Powers Is by far the best co median of the company. He appeared in several laughaple skitB, in all of which he displayed his skill in droll character impersona- tions. He is most amusing In his tipsy moments, but for any comedian to do as much as he did in a single per formance without becoming tiresome, is in itself all achievement worth while. Lynn and Lockwood in
 Friendly Enemies presented their we'll known vaudeville sketch in which they portray two old men. Their impersonations are better than their comedy, but yodeling special ty at the conclusion of their act won them several eneores. Arthur G. Hadley did some rapid-fire cartoe n- ing that was real novelty. The various types of the comic sheets were sketched during a song on boards held by members of the chorus. The Hon. Andy Gump and
 MT. Giggs were greeted with an out burst of applause. Stanley Rogers and Ralph Coleman were another vaudeville team who appeared in several specialties. MT. Rogers is

 When Mir. Doodle had taken off his shoes with the nails in the bottom, the Dragon said: Il will never permit you to take Marggy home with you to chop your wood"
 And Mir. Doodle replied: And will never permit you to net permit nes to take Marggy home with me to chop my wood!' and with this MT. Doodle stuck out his tongue at the Dragon and the Dragon growled very loud at Mir. Doodle.
 Then Mir. Doodle pushed upon the Dragon and the Dragon pushed upon MT. Doodle and back and forth they tussled until finally the Dragon pushed the hardest and pushed MT. Doodle over upon his back
 Of course. you have guessed by this time that MT. Doodle was losing the fight with the Dragon, and it made him so angry he lost his temper, and, before anyone could say "seatw MT.

THE CIRCLE" WITH. STAR CAST COMING.
Smartest Comedy in Recent Years Is Verdict of
 Critics

There Is a real treat in store Tor those who love good plays we'll acted, when, the Selwyns' offering the Somerset Maugham's celebrated comedy The Circle" appears at the Jefferson for special matinee Thanksgiving. Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights, with jubilee cast of stars including Wilton Lackaye, Henry l.. Dixey, Amelia Bingham. Charlotte Walker and Norman Hack ett.
 It is the Selwyns' desire to present Mir Maugham's comedy here on an elaborate scale and no expense has been spared to make the engagement of The Circle" the foremost theat- rical event in years. It is doubtful, if ever a comedy came to us moro highly recommended. The critics both of Europe and America have been unanimous in proclaiming The Circle one of the smartest, plays written in years and many of the New York reviewers went on record by saying that 1t was the best writ ten and constructed play that Broadway had seen for soms time.
 The Circle" ran for one year at the Haymarket theatre. in London. repeated it's success for the same length of time in Paris and ran the entire season at the Selwyn theatre in New York.

 And when Marggys Mamma had finished paddywhacklng MT. Doodle, Mir. Doodle ran as hard as he could and never once looked behind him. "Ha! ha! hal" the Dragon laughed in spite of the hole in his aide, "Marggys Mamma was the one who won the great fight after allf'

There may be times when it's quality is open to argument, but so far as quantity is concerned the Greenwich Village Fo.lies," at the efferson last night, gave full measure. There is a long list of vaudeville specia1ties, song numbers and numerous dancing spectacles. A few of the jokes were coarse with out any particular element of humor tc redeem them. but for the most part. the show is typical "Follies' offering, handsomely staged and cos- tuned and presented by a company in which there are at least half dozen talented principals drawn from the vaudeville stage.
