V " THB TOP O' TH WORLD." The Top "-the World" to bo seen at the Towle Opera House next Sunday matinee, and night we are told is filled with clever people and with rollicking, legitimate fun, to say nothing of a bevy of famous Casino girls. This musical extravaganze has , just finished a run of four and one-half months at the Studebaker theater, Chicago, and had a previous run of six months on Broadway. It Is safe to say
that the big show has qualities that
appeal. There are twenty-four songs
and dances and among them are noted.
"The Busy Mr. Bee," "The Collie Ballet,'
"How'd You Like to be My Bow-Wow-
Wow?" "Why Don't You?" "Yankee
Doodle Yarns" and "Cupid and You
and I."
The comedy is said to be refined and.
appealing and Is in the hands of a clever combination of men and women the full New York and Chicago cast There is little of horse play and much of genuine humor depicted. Bailey and Austin and the principal comedians
have been in the past, vaudevillians.
