George M. Cohan's international
comedy, "So This Is London," one of
the stage classics of the day, will be
presented at the Hunt's Craterian
theater Friday night. May 22.
This Is a Henry Duffy production
and that alone is considered a guar
antee of Its merit. The play is deli
ciously original in theme and its fun is
of the sparkling, effervescent kind
that never fails to captivate and charm
an audience. . . ... . -
The situations are described as
said to he a certain iresnness auoui
them and a droll humor permeating
the whole that has served to mkae the
piece one of the most populnr come
dies ever presented on the American
stage.
"Ho This Is London," comes hore
after a lung run in New York, Chicago
and London with a capable company
headed by Lawrence D'Orsay, the or
iglnal star and a production In vpry
way the equal of that seen in the ma
jor cities and on a par with that orig
luughable in the extreme and there is finally introduced to Broadway.

SYD CHAPLIN'S COMEDY
AT
Proof of tho paraphrased adage
that ,;thero Is no piece of foollshnHS
like an old piece of foolishness" Is be
ing had at the Hunt's Craterian thea
ter this week, where it is roughly es
timated upwards of 3000 persons
writhed in various forms of joyous
hysterics yesterday and tho day be
fore as tho silver screen exhibited the
cavortlngs and cnperlngs of Syd
Chaplin in Charley's Aunt."
From the looks and sound of things
the Craterian will exceed this record
by several thousands before tomorrow
midnight; for it was apparent that
.those who walked -out of the play
house Wednesday and yesterday were
! going to lose no time in urging their
I friends, relatives andthe wide, wide
world to "Go see 'Charlie's Aunt."
j And who shall question their Judg
ment? Not this reviewer, most cer
,tainly. In view of the fact that he roll
