JOHN BARKY AT GAYETY Is Famous for the Line, “I’ll Kill ’Im!”—.Another Superlatively Good Columbia Burlesk Noah Webster defines the word "bon ton” as follows; ‘‘The style of per sons in high life; good breeding; fash ionable society; height of fashion.” ' Advance reports have it that Jacobs trod Jemion’s big show coming to the popular Gayety theatre next week Is all of these things. Its principal en tertainers are high in the acting pro fession; they display more than or dinary good breeding in their work; they belong to the social elect of the stage and the show itself is the height of fashion and modern in every wav. John Barry, the featured comedian of the piece, comes of a family of thespian aristocrats, none being bet ter known or more highly respected than the famous Barrys. Bernice La Barr, the prima donna, descends from one of the best old Southern families or Tennessee; Lou Barry, is also of a splendid old American family, as are S m Raynor, Louise Wright and Ed die Simmons, while Walter La Foye counts among his ancesters some of the old Bourbon stock of France. So much for the breeding of the cast. As to the show itse f—-every line and situation in it has been writ ten in good taste and refinement. Wliile the comedy is uproarous, it is still wholesome and refined, and the fifteen or more musical numbers are of the type that Is popular in the drawing rooms of the best homes. The dancing is full of dash and grace, but at the same time entirely lacking in suggestiveness. And this carries us to Mr. Webster’s final definition of the word—the "height of fashion” which refers to the scenes and cos tumes of the ‘‘Bon Tons". Here the producers have exerted the greatest care and good taste in equipping their production with an array of stage set tings and gowns that are not only In the height of fashion but which even anticipate the coming modes. As to the ladies of the ensembles the chorus—they too, individually and collectively, show breeding and beauty, while at the same time displaying a pleasing ability in their interpreta t:on of the many Intricate dance steps and' in the cultured singing of the many charming songs of the piece. Nor are they a disappointment as manikins for the display of the gorgeous cos tumes. ■So in every way the "Bon Tons” lives up to its definition in the dic tionary. Its name is no misnomer.

Our financial drive is on to meet our EUROPE’S ARMIES TOTAL 3,917,949 — 2,030,000 Fewer Men Under Arms Than in 1913. RUSSIA LEADS WITH 823,033 Kurope today is less ot an armed camp by nearly 2,000,000 men limn 11 was in 1913, the year before tlie World war, says the New York Times in that year, according to the most relb aide information, there were 4,dii9.2tX) men under arms in the active armies of Kurope. These armies included re serves on active duty, hut the total size of the Kumpean forces given for 1913 does not include organized re serves no, on duty, neither does 1, take into consideration the unorganized reserves that in time of emergency en ter into the military man-power of the nations of Kurope. Tie- total number of men In tne ac tive armies of Kurope on December 31, 1922. according to analysis of reliable reports received in Washington, was 'i.917.949 men. This total is worked our on the same basis of comparison •is thrt for 1913. It takes Into eon uderation the forces known to he in e active armies and includes reserves only where they are on active duty. Comparison of these totals Indicates Mint the active armies of Kurope today -amain 1,751,251 fewer men than these Hue armies totaled in 1913. Cost Has Quadrupled. There is 11 popular impression flint he armies of Europe are larger today '■an they were In the year preeediug he outbreak of the war. It lias eten ■ eon charged that there are 2,000.000 ore men under arms in Europe than ■ as tlie case in 1913. There Is nothing ■ sustain this assumption, say the ex erts in Washington whose business It is to have definite knowledge of the object. Another outstanding fact In the En ropean military situation of today is ■hat the cost of maintaining armies has gone up tremendously. The ar mies of 1922. although generally small er than those of 1913, eosf considerably more than those of the prewar year, even in the United States. Official fig ures covering the military expenditures of the United States and certain other countries show that the 1922 expendi tures are considerably in excess of those of 1913. The increase is largest •i the Italian army, which now costs more than six times what it did ten years ago, despite the fact that Its personnel is 50,000 less than In 1913. Armies Come High. The British and French armies are costing about four times as tnueh as j they did a year ago. The military ex penditures of Great Britain In 1913 amounted to £28.220,000, as compared with £115.870.51 Kl in 1922, so that the j ratio of 1922 expenditures to those of 1913 was 4.10 for Great Britain. The figures given for the British army In • • h Serbia into the new Jugoslav na tion. Czechoslovakia. Esthnnia.
