b 1] ' a +O Pea eR [The Stage BIDE DUDLEY sar was a profitable day for the Broadway theatres. Large | audiences-attended nearly all of them and in many cases hundreds were turned away, The nine new Productions which began their en- Bagements last night all drew ca- pacity crowds. It looks as though therm is an era of prosperity just ahead for the theatrical business in this part of the country. WILLIE WITH HARRIS. For some time we wondered what had become of Willie Newman, the pint-size manager, long in charge of the Empire Theatre. Now comes the announcement that Willie has joined the Sam H. Harris forces, and is in charge of the Margaret Lawrence show ‘‘Secrets."" That's good. Broad- way really wouldn't be the sume without Willie somewhere. “BOOTLEGGERS"” ON TOUR. “The Bootleggers,”” which closed at the 39th Street Theatre Saturday night, is to be presented on tour.

New Parasols for Southern Sunshine Just ns important as the millinery itself are these new parasols—smart black and white effects to contrast dashingly with one’s hat and costume, or flowered and colored styles that will cast a harmohiz- ing glow of soft tints over the summery hat beneath it. And whether furled or tilted over one’s head, they are equally lovely. In black velvet, in velvet and taffeta combined, and in taffeta silks in flowered patterns or in plain colors, with fetchingly odd and unique handles. Pablo Casals ¢ is the greatest ‘cellist that has ever drawn a bow,” so one of the stellar violin virtuosi acclaims Pablo Casals. And so he is unreservedly rated by the critics of every nation. “‘When one speaks of the violoncello, one knows but one - great name—Casals.” The unerring sense and deli- cacy that are given to only the few in any branch of art ate his.” “There is no theme so delicate or so tender that Casals does not grasp its elusive threads with the unerring hand and heart of the true artist.” Tributes such as these crown Casals as the peerless ’cellist of the age. Incomparable, supreme in his art, he is one whom every lover of music should hear. Pablo Casals plays Dec. 28 afternoon and Dec. 29 evening at Carnegie Hall ASALS’ art, too beautiful for the poor ability of words to interpret or describe for those who have not heard him, bears witness for itself and its creator’s genius through the perfect medium of Columbia Records. Go to any Columbia Dealer and listen to these examples of this great master’s playing. Gavotte in D (Popper). 98012 Would God I Were the Tender Apple Blossom. 80159 Salut d’Amour (Love's Greeting) (Elgar). 80158 Evening Star (from Tannhauser) (Wagner). 49813 As you listen to these selections it will require but little imagination to picture Casals, his eyes closed, seemingly oblivious to everything but, the personal presence of the spirit of music. Casals makes records ex- clusively for Columbia. COLUMBIA GRAPHOPHONE COMPANY, New York Real Estate Ads. for The Sunday World Real Estate Section MUST BE IN THE WORLD OFFICE BEFORE FRIDA\.
