The Evening World Daily Magazine, Wednesday, April 22, “The Yankee Prince’ George M,. Cohan’s Crowning Success. N° that he has his father and mother to look after him again and his sister to dance with him, George M. Cohan is as young as he was when “The Governor's Son” was in its vaudeville clothes. Don't believe his gray hairs. Everything else in his head is fresh and gay, and es for his feet, they are filled with new ideas.
