Almost anybody would have said that Tommy Fox would never, never be pble to catech Mr. Grouse. Though Tommy was quick, it seemed as if Mr. Grouse was even quicker. He could leave the ground like a shot | out of A Bun.

Mrs. I"ox was pleased when he said that. “Perhaps you’d better try a young Grouse,” she suggested. “The young- stes aren't quite so wary as our Mr. Grouse. He's a sharp old bird,wor he: wouldn’'t be living right hcre in these woods year after year.” The Fox family had fallen into the habit of saying “our Mr. Grouse,” be- cause they all hoped to catch him off his guard some day and have him for their own. g‘r roulg knew it him- self, And he always made quite a joke of it among his friends. ‘‘The Fox family’s Mr. Grouse will now do this or that,”” he used to say.

This first half of the week program is.a corker, rich in song, dance, comedy and comical hokum, while the big picture, “Enter Madame,” featuring Clar.. Kimball Young is excellent. “The Spider and the Fly,” the opening vaudevifie number, presents a variety of stunts. Littie Dolly is an unusually good: juvenile, singing snappy songs and impersonating sev- eral stage stars, including thé late George Primrose. The Five Melody Girls are all good lookers and each a specialist in singing or dancing. ~The number: billed “Hallowe’en” is’a fine one t#. draw Jaughs, the singing of the character song “For Crying Out TLoud” being the hit. Number five is one of the funnist hokum skits on the stage, being a pseudo magician stunt. The sixth act is the Crouch Richards Four, another snappy bunch of jazzy musicians, ‘strumming a mean -banjo and doing Wunlly cleverly on other instruments.
