The seats on top of the 'buses are narrow enough when two slenderly built people share them. I am slen- der, but Harry Underwood man, tall and massively framed.

If you haven't some of this spirit toward shop girl and crowd and friends and enemies, though you give far more than you can afford, though you wear out your scul and body in shopping tours, you have not Christmas.

To sing this music there is a quartet of superior vocalists, Vin- cent Sullivan, Leola Lucey, Nannette Tlack and Edna Whistler, and a great singing chorus of fifty. Walter Jones, the famous comedian, is the featured member of the cast and Eva Swain, the premiere danseuse from , the Metropolitan Opera House is an- other attraction with “Tit for Tat.” Oresta Vessella, who composed the msuic for the new musical comedy, will conduct the augmented orchestra at tonight’s performance.
