A number of politicians are so grie7- oasIy disappointed at the result of the late primary election that they have protested against Clerk of the Court Dunn eanvassing the vote of the Indian villages of Southeastern Alaska. Elee= tion contests are generally unsatisfae- tory proceedings at best. By the time they are settled yhe term of office is usually over. If the Indians are en- titled to vote, there is no ground for contest. If they are not, 8 contest will not settle the question. Nothing but a court decision will put an end to the controversy, and about now would be as good a tjme to get it as any.-Faldez Miner.

A XMAS TREAT in
EVERY SENSE
OF THE WORD

The current weeks show. at the
Gayety is, in. our humble opinion,
one of the best burlesque produc-
tions Washington has seen, OF
will see, this year. To begin with.
the Come Along Revue for
such is its name, has, in Harry
T. Shannon, Artie Leeming, and
Harry Evanson. three comedians,
who go about the business Of ex-
tracing laughter with the nc
complished ease OF old masters on
larger canvasses than the bur-
lesque stage affords.
Alice Lawlor, Betty Burroughs
and Josephine Les Cells are
the feminine leads. and each one
would rate an individual and
lengthier notice in production
more lacking in other laudable
component parts, They do
very creditable evenings work. and
Furthermore they are, individually

The sncw is renlete with sps-
ciaI numbers OF great excellence.
Gubist Blues, Polish Wedding, Gre.
tonne Days, Birds of Feather.
Vase of Roses end Mysterious
Mirrors are episodes with special
stage settings, and are units Of
rare value for burlesque.
Misses LaWlor and Burroughs
eblige with q ukele turn which
proves very popular.
1t Is only fair to saw that.
while we do not remember having
seen Miss Burroughs before, we
predict that she is a conner. She
has youth, charm, and Il most
winning personality Her sing
ing can be improved, but withal
she is the kind of q pei son that
an audience loves.
The chorus. in this show, which
has so many things deserving
especial notice. also rates a part
graph to itself. In. the first place
ii is, as whole really good
looking and is constructed on
architectural lines of great beauty.
Furthermore, it dances we'll and
sings fairly so.
Les Cells Brothers offer an
acrobatic novelty that would go
well on any good bin. J. w B.

In the three acts required to
imprint this lesson in the minds
of frivolous wives, there is a
constancy of interest ELECTED
from the audience that is amaz-
ing in play presuming to deal
with lighter entertainment.
There is punch in every act
and, literally, knockout in two
of them; the only two women
in the cast being sorely beset
by the battering fists of out
ragged husbands.
These are the people in the
play:
Eve Devant. ......... Ann Andrews
Billings .,......,....,. Bruce Scott
Cora Stearns ....... Frances Carson
James Hunter ......,,. George Gaut
Frank Stearns .........s James Dale
Stearns is suspicious Of his
wife, hostile to Hunters appar-
ent attentions to her. Devant,
the fool in this particular para
disc, is a big honest boy, pity
ing Stearns and advising him.
The Washington times., 1924-12-23

more belligerent hussy than
ever before. Devant's advice
went amiss.
Act three exhibits a darkened
room looking out on moon
f, lit garden that is perfect in ST
Multitude. Clasped in each
others arms are Eve and Hun
ter, while from within the room
Devant looks on. Eve, unaware
that her husband saw this clan
destine business, redeens her
infidelity by beginning to con-
fess when he tells her he was
a witness. Eve wants Hunter
and throws aside Devant's for
giveness. Pleading by Devant.
Determination by Eve to leave
him. Then, gradually but swift
ly, the second climax, where
Wife Number Two is flattened
to such another precise nicely
that she almost blends in with
the floor. In this inktance, De-
wants advice to another proves
successful in his own case.
It must be admitted this
second assault is somewhat
spurious. 1t is too much of a
replica of the first, accom-
plished even on the same spot.
It detracts somewhat from the
classical tragedy of the first
knockout. But l don't know
what can be done about it.
One hesitates to single an in
dividual Of the cast for special
mention. Ann Andrews is i'm
mense, an actress of finished
style who moves with such fin
ished grace that her smallest
gesture is something majestic.
Miss Carson could not, as the
vixenish flirt, be bettered.
Minor Watson, as dependable
for performance as William
Harris is for production, is
noble as an alternating light
comedian and a disillusioned
husband. For Dale, unforget-
table for his De Lewis in
"Loyalties," and for George
Gaul, any encomiums they care
to levy upon.
This show must be seen far
I. as entertaining an evening as
the theater is likely to show
this season.
