"Otorisna" la an English comedy, but
It I* safe to cay that the author would
hardly recognise hit own In the merry
musical melange which le being ot

clever lot of performers have a way
ot Introducing new and up-to-date ma
terial, topical songs; big musical num
ben. and original stage business which
would make a success out of the dull
est comedy. It Is thla skillful handling
of th* raw 'material which has made
ths n-ondsrtul success of this organisa
tion. "Gloriana" tn lets skillful hands
might not far* so wetl, but as u Is
presented now It makes a moat enjoy
able entertainment and every person
who has seen the performance this
week at ths Casino Is delighted with
ths show.
Next week we are to have th* same
company In "The Night of the Fourth."
It is bp far the best thing the Wella-
Dunne-llarhm Company ha* ever done
and Little Chip and Mary Marble, aa
well aa tbe chorus, will have splendid
opportunities to do their best work.
The sale of sente for next week will
commence Friday morning at the
Grand box office.
