senger from the planet Mare to teach
the nuiii of the earth a lesson In self-
indulgence. and to forcefully convey to
him the necessity of being considerate

Mr. Goodwin Comes to the Grand For Two Plays, "The Geniue” and "What
Would a Gentleman Do?"
BUSIER BROWN AND TIGE
ARE 7HE REAL, REAL THING
Resolved:
That Burner Brown In an awfully
good flhow and Master Jimmie Rosen
Is an an fully good "Buster.”
When the clever little pee-wee, Mas
ter Gabriel, held forth In all his glory
last year as the ideal stage personlflcn-
ttou of Outcault'a, famous creation,
theatergoers opined there would never
be another actor who was at once small
enough nnd clever enough to portray
the character as he did. And the same
was thought true of George All, as
"Tlge."
It’s just another Instance of theatri
cal "dope” gone wrong. If Master
Rosen could huve been stuck tn the
colored supplement of a newspaper, he
would have been aa "Busterlsh" as
(Jutcault'a own Buster.
"I am glad to see su many boys and
girls In the' audience,” said Rosen, In
response to repeated curtain calls Fri
day night, "and 1 am glad that so many
of you brought your parents along.
That's right, be kind to your parents,
children. They are hard to get along
with soihetlmes, but then they don't
know any better. Overlook their
faults. When they spank you, as they
will do on occasions, don't forget that
It hurts them worse than It does you—
only, not tn the game place”
Jack Bell, as "Tlge,*' Buster s dog,
crowded the little star for flrst honors.
Bell Is about an "doggish” as a man
can get to be. Add little Miss Leila
N'autna. as "Mary Jane," and there's
"threes” that ought to beat a full house.
The chorus Isn’t pretty. The chorus,
numerically speaking. Isn't large. But
then Buster Isn't large, either, so there.
Buster will "resolve” some more at
the Grand Saturday matinee and night,
and to think what ths Uttlo folks have
coming tn them at that matinee
