This is being forceably demonstrated at the j Lyceum theater this week where the Alfred Cross Players have struck their true stride and are playing to packed | houses, packed from pit to top. Ncv- er before in the history of theatricals { in this city have such audiences turned ! out to witness plays running an entire | week, with matinee performances. In licu the great demand that | has been suddenly manifested for | plays of the musical variety the man- | agement of the Lyceum will present | | next week one of the most novel per- | formances of vet to be scen, | “His Dream Girl,” a farce comedy interpolated with musical numbers. This will he a sort of combination be- tween muscial comedy and vaudeville, the individual members of the company have been called upon to do “specialty.” Alfred Cross will render several piano selections.

In all it promises to one of the best weeks the Lyceum has ever | seen. “The Little Millionaire”, with Phil- ip Sheflield in the title role is some- thing that should not be missed by the discerning playgoers. It is one of the funniest musical George M. Cohan cver wrote. ries through it a plot that while, a plot as sustaining as any in the regular line of drama. Then tuere are numerous song hits to fill out evening's entertainment. One drafted from Broadway's latest musi- cal hits is scoring the success of the | week.

The picce offers the little fellow some plendid opportunities to display h eccentricitics and the advance notices of the film indicate that he misses none of them. Topping the bill tonight will be Car- ter DeHaven in the Big Four feature, “A Youth of Fortune.” DeHaven is one of the best known entertainers on the legitimate stage. In the “mov- ies” he Is making a pronounced hit and his debut in New Britain as a screen star should attract extraordin- ary attention. The picture is in five reels.
