Mummy and the Humming Bird"
at the Frazer This Evening.
Edward Everett Hale once said,
Det on the country, because one of
its mottoes Is 'Get the Best.'" This
get tho best" principle is just as
applicable to a play as to a senator
or a president. American people
know and understand this innately,
and therein lies tho answer to the
phonomenal popular success and
popular means at once financial and
artistic of "Tho Mummy and the
Humming Bird," the attraction to bo
seen at tho Krazer tonight with
Paul Gllmoro In tho leading role of
Lord Jack Lumley,
It Is a good play because its com
ponent parts for the four cardinal
principles which make greatness In
play: laughter, tears, thrills, ap
plause. To continue with Mr.
Hale: "We must see that the
country has good water, good air.
good wood, good coal, good men,
good women, good newspapers,
good books and good plays."
The good Lord and many enter
prising men have seen to it that we
have all these; and Mr. Jules jiur
ry In particular has seen to It that
wo liavo good plays: for In present
Ing Mr. Paul Gllmore as tho dear
Mnmmv In "The Mummy and tho
Humming Bird," ho is presenting
one of the best heroic comedy
actors on the American stage in
tho best modern comedy of the
present day. "The Mummy and the
Humming Bird" is as full of wit as
an egg Is of meat.
