AILS SAYS WHY ARE YOU SO VERY GOOD A Little Journey to Cincinnati Proves ‘The New Moon’ Is an Honest Buy in the Theater Today. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN. “t SAY, if you are good why are you taking my time?” or something to J. that effect, savs Roscoe Ails in ‘‘The New Moon.” I know it is something like that because I was in Cincinnati at the Shubert and saw thi3 thing which causes people to buy seats beyond the capacity of the theater. Before I went to Nelson’s Trowbridge’s theater in Cincinnati I was sick of that song called “Lover, Come back to Me.” The first shot at this national fling at harmony is done by Charlotte Lansing as Marianne.

This about stops the show, butj George Houston does it in the sec- j

ond act with such a wallop that the thing j does become national j harmony. Not saying that Miss Lansing does not put, over the tune to the thing of effect but Houston (with Miss Lansing holding herself nearly out of the window in a distant background) stops the works with showmanship. These two in their love scenes use the old musical melodra-

Lucius Metz

matic hug and struggle with lights, melody, mountains and that sort of thing. And, boys and girls, I am telling you that it gets over with a wow. Not overdone. Just the right showmanship expressed in a mighty wisely constructed show. Roscoe Ails has gone beyond the Pullman days into a dancer with a definitely developed sense ox comedy that connects with the front row as easily as it does the most extreme seat in the theater. He does a whale of a job at dancing as well as personality in “Try Her Out Dancing” with Madeline McMahon in the second act. This tune has dash and a lot of charm and Ails leaves nothing to be desired. I might add that Miss McMahon dees it, too. There are numerous formations which are the berries. And you see what a riot the ‘‘Vagabond King” was with a certain song. Well, this show has one of those patriotic things which makes me want to take up my pick ax or corkscrew and ask for some sort of freedom. There are changes of scenery one after another. The costumes were clean last night in Cincinnati. I should say that the wardrobe was what was to be expected after a cleaning day. In other woi.-s, this show as to scenery and what they wear is right. Lucius Metz has a lot to do and he does it with gestures and satisfaction. I am talking about the same cast and production of "The New Moon," wheih opens at English’s on Monday night for the week. I am taking no press stuff or w’ord by mouth when I tell you that this "New Moon” company is right. It is a big show and unusually well done as to melody, comedy and dancing. From a scenic standpoint it is right and a whale of a big show. There is a reason for this show

doing the business that it is all over the country. It is both theater and box office. And that is saying tons. And this show has a bunch of tunes. That you. Because these melodies are set in your musical memories even before they land in town. I am telling you days in advance that "The New Moon” which you will see at English’s next week is the real article. If it was not the real thing I would tell you it was rotten. Indianapolis theaters today offer: “The Lone Star Ranger,” at the Lyric; “Hot for Paris,” at the Apollo: "The Bishop Murder Case,” at the Palace; “Half Way to Heaven,” at the Ohio; “The Kibitzer,” at the Indiana; "Sally," at the Circle; burlesque at the Mutual and movies at the Colonial. Brookville Woman Dies By Times Special BROOKVILLE, Ind., Jan. 23.— Funeral services were held here for Mrs. Elizabeth Fetterman, 63, who died at the home of her sister. She leaves a brother, William Fetterman and a sister, Mrs. Frank Horning.

Tells How Fat Men Can Lose Half a Pound a Day

Here’s a simple way to get rid of that corporation and quickly feel in both body and mind the joy of living. It’s the safe way, too —for everyday you continue this easy method of losing unwanted and unneeded flesh you'll gain in energy, vigor and endurance. Nine times in ten obesity means inactivity—lt means that your blood is starving for the six vital salts your internal organs need to keep you youthful, active, ambitious and keen in mind. When you take one half teaspoonful of Kruschen Salts every morning in a glass of hot or cold water you get these six vital salts which modern foods and cooking do not supply. Start taking Kruschen Salts—that’s the common-sense way to reduce —but don’t take them with the idea that they possess reducing qualities in themselves.
