Rehearsals For Musical Fantasy to Start Monday.

Much interest has been awakened in society circles and especially among the younger set by the announcement that rehearsals for the dainty musical fantasy, “Fi-Fi” are to begin Monday. The director, G. M. Cooper, is due to arrive Monday next and the first rehearsals are called for that afternoon and evening. Starting at 3:45 the paper and china dolls will meet. In the evening the principal characters will assemble at 7:30 o’clock, when parts will be given out and any minor changes made in the cast. Practically all the selecting has already been done by the committee, but of course changes may be necessary when rehearsals are actually under way. Mr. Cooper, who represents the John B. Rogers Producing Co., of Ohio, is an efficient director, and brings with him a host of references and favorable comments regarding his productions in other places. “Fi-Fi of the Toy Shop’.’ is to be staged here under the auspices of the charity board as a benefit for same. \
