Gayety Has Good
Show for Current
Week on Boards
Musical burlesque that Is really musi
cal, because good slncers are presenting
it, Is offered at the Gayety for this
week's bill.
At the opening chorus last night, the
large company of principals and chorus
girls ably demonstrated that they can
sing.
Furthermore, the company Includes a
lot ' of "good-lookers,"' creates plenty of
fun, has the sparkle and snap essential
to successful extravaganza, shows some
classy wardrobe and Is also "there"
with tho dancing.
As proof of the taugti-conipelllng quali
ties of the show, it need only be said
that last night a young woman got to
laughing so hard at the fun that the fun
sters themselves had to stop and accept
the compliment until the hilarity
eased tip.
Will J. Kennedy hearts the company.
He will b - remembered-for hi -comic
work In past -seasons as a rube sheriff
tho fellow who says, "I'm a gol durn
br-r-r-ave rnan, I am." The best thing
about his comedy Is that It Is clean cut
and distinctive. Kennedy Is still "com
ing," too; he ha appeared funnier each
season, and during a single performance,
his comedy seems to grow on the audi
ence, so that the longer he Is at it, the
better he becomes. Jack Miller also Is a
capable and popular comedian, and In a
specialty and also with Kennedy and
Harry Kelly, make quite a hit. Harry
Evan la 'a little fellow, who excel at
freak dance.
Lynne Canter has one of the beat female
voice heard at the Gayety this season.
such voice a hers are quite exceptional
In burlesque. Flo Davis Is a regular flash
of lightning a a aoubrette, being both
clever and - gingery In both songs and
dances. Kllly Forsythe and Lottie Black
ford also are pleasing In solos. One of
the big hits of the show Is the Carnival

pulling power, consisting ot Jack Witts

ARTESIAN WELLS FOR THE
PECPLE OF ISLAND OF LEMNOS
I Cot-repp-.ndrnro of The Associated Press.)
IjONPOX. Nov. 10 When the first
British navsl forces landed at Lemnos,
near the entrance of the Dardanelles,
tliev were surprised to find thst the
Islnnd, which has an area of 8no square
I m lea and a population of Sn.WO, was
prai-tlfnlly riV-stltute of drinking water,
exprpt fur uncertain supplies from a few
sum II sprlner. The allied triops were
supplied wllh mineral water sent In shlp
loads through the generosity of a French
woman In Marseilles.
The British aiithorltloa promptly sent to
Canada for engineers, who are now en
gaged In sinking artsslan wells wh'rh
will guarantee the people of Lemnos a
reliable and abundant water supply.
A Scenario Rlakt There.
"The silent drama," sad little sister,
resiling the dramatic notes. "Whst'a th
silent drama?"
"Aw," said brother, "tbst's when pa
is sneaking In from the club at 2 a m.,
n his stocking feet with his shoe in
his hit,d and ma Is waiting In the 1-k
H the top of the stairs resdy to whale
him over the head with a curtain pole."
