No doubt would have been satisfied with
that explanation. for white rattlesnake was
surely far from my thoughts that afternoon:

struggle through the stunted oak and briars

NATIONAL GETS
AS THOUSANDS
CHEER DATES

SO SUCCESSFUL has "As Thousands
Cheer" proven as a road attrac-
tion, according to the advance agent,
John Montague, who is here to ar
range for the visit of the Berlin-Hart
revue at the National the week of
February 10, that Sam H. Harris, the
producer, has decided to keep it tour
ing as long as he can find cities to
book it in this season.
The original plan to play it only
II weeks, and then put the same
cast in another revue, was abandoned
when it was found necessary to in
crease its time in many places to take
care of the customers. An extra week
had to be added in Boston, making
four in all; two weeks had to be al
lotted to Detroit, and the scheduled
four weeks in Chicago had to be ex-
tended to eight before the big revue
could 60 on its way.
The engagement in Washington,
however, will be limited to one week
only, with the show opening here on
Sunday night. 1t had been thought
that Sunday audiences would not give
the subtle satires of the sketches their
best chance until it was decided to be-
gin the St. Louis engagement last week
on Sunday evening.
The success of GAS Thousands
Cheer" induced the same producer,
Sam H. Harris (who sent us "Of Thee
Sing" two years ago) to tour "Mer-
rily We Roll Along" the Kaufman
Hart drama with something like 80
players in the cast, to include Wash
ington in its itinerary.
