The “critica” broke even; about half boosted, ind half mildly “knocked.” BOTH OF WHICH WERE DESERVE! But TWO BIG TMINGS EVERYBODY WAS ENTHUSIARTIC ABOUT: THE MUSIC, AND THE LAUGHS! _ It was generally admitted that no show ever came to Broadway with so many BEAU- TIFUL TUNES and SO MANY LAUGHS! The management’s CONFIDENCE was absolute; the public LIKED it; they kept coming; the first week was substantial; and EACH WEEK THERE WAS A STEADY, GRADUAL INCREASE. All the time the management WORKED. Encouraged by your Ad-man that the public would bhy the goods IF you had the goods, they kept BETTERING the production: America’s foremost leading man was put in the title role: CHARLES PURCELL, Miss Maxine Brown, in the leading feminine role, IDEAL FOR THE PART. Then, dear old TOM LEWIS! These oe! charming personalities and talented artists added | to. f ROBERT conan. and DOLLY CONNOLLY who had already registered “hits” make THE RIGHT GIRL one of the best cast musical shows New York has seen for many seasons. And, MORE GIRLS and MORE GOWNS! (That, the show-men tell me, I must never leave out, NEVER!) Now, Good People, I’ve told you about GOODS for years; and Jong ago I found out all the talk in the world was VALUELESS unless the goods were what we SAID they were: AND, IF THEY WERE WHAT WE SAID THEY WERE, YOU WANTED THEM, AND YOU WANTED THEM BADLY. If they weren't, you didn’t! And that is the way it should be. Now, you have the “superstition” AND THE FACTS.
