Tomorrow night, Miss Ruth Drap-

character sketches in the high school

marks the second of a series being
held under the auspices of the Com

Fresh from new triumphs in London,
she has also brought with her laur-

sought Miss Draper, after hearing
and seeing her in London this past
season. M. Lugne Poe produces
only the original and unusual things
at his theatre Du Louvre, and II
was thus a signal honor for him to
invite Miss Draper to appear there
In London her success of year
ago, was repeated, and her only
real rival for the fayors of London
theatregoers was the Russian bal
let.
The moment Miss Draper comes
upon the stage, she challenges your
interest. She holds 1t until the very
last Of her numbers. She changes
rapidly from one type to another as
her program proceeds swaying her
audience through the entire range of
emotions. Yet one never tires of her
art because it is natural and so free
from mannersims. 1t is a refresh
ing novelty in the theatre. Tickets
for this entertainment alone may be
procured at the door.

offices.
