New Year’s Attraction at The Davis.| The production of “School Days” which comes to the Davis theatre, on Friday, January lst, matinee and night will be to the majority of the audience like the reading of a well read poet for the first time. In the poetical work, one finds odd phrases which one has often heard but never knew the origin of. In “School Days” you hear the music you have heard whistied on the street, played at parties, moving picture shows and Coney Isiand, but Wwhose parentage was a mystery until you hear they are “It Takes a Cop to Cop a @irl,” “Rag Picker,” “When School Days Comes to Town,” “I Could Love a Little Girl Like You,” “Miss- issippi Cabaret,” “There Ain't No Man in the Moon,” “The Rustic School House Dance,” and the latest novelty, “Carolina and You.” “School Days” contains all the ele- ments implied in the words musical comedy—pretty melodies, beautiful costumes, lovely and picturesque ecenery, brilllant and dazling electrical effects, in fact, one might almost im- agine we were going back to the days of “La Poupee;” the similarity being manifest in the angelic innocence of the twenty-two juvenile artists that make this play such a wonderful suc- cess. There is never a duil minute from curtain rise to curtain fall, but one continual spasm of fun, laughter and follification. Matinee 25¢, 35¢, 50c, and 75c. Bv- ening 25c, 50c, 75c and $1.00.

It is full of ‘oright comedy, amusing situations, lively music and dancing, elegant scenery and beautiful girls wearing exquigite costumes. There are two very . funny Hebrew comedians with the act and they certainly get into a lot-of trouble and keep things going pretty lively all the time. The second act-on the hill is a very neat banjo specialty by Miss Hortense Hunter and she always wins«2 big hand fo her well directed efforts. - On toda; picture " programme the old Luciile Love favorites, Grace Cunard and Francis Ford, will be seen in a three reel detective grama on the My Lady Raffies order which is full of action and: ‘intense excitement throughout.
