STOCK COMPANY IN VERY FUNNY COMEDY "And 8he Turned Up" De- lighted Audience at.the ? Qrand Opera House. -- "A langh from start to finish," was the verdict of thosp who had the privilege of attending the first performance of *"'And She Turned Up," which was presented at the Grand Opera ' House by the Rex Stock Company on Thursday even- ing! It is without doubt one of the funniest comedies which this popu- lar company has presented for thy approval of Kingston audiences dur- Ing its second year's stay in King. ston. "Bill" Yule, who plays the part of Caraway Bones, the under taker, is a scream in himself, and kept the audience in roars of laugh- ter. To marry a charming widow, with a grown up son and daughter, and later find that the widow's hus- band was not lost at sea, as was supposed, is the experience of "Bones." When the undertaker first paid a visit to his newly-acquired family, he met with a very cool re- ception, which terminated in his be. ing thrown into the pond, and it is beyond the power of description to say what "Bill" looked like when hLe was fished out, and his clothes be- gan to dry, and likewise shrink | "Father Medway" (Howard Brown), finally turns up from the sea, after being lost for ten months, and he is followed by a dark shadow in the {person of a native of Africa (Hazel | Williams), whom he 1s bequiled into marrying. The : fun them comes faster, but as the riddle unravels, it reveals the fact that the Captain was not legally married and the shadows begin to get brighter. Rex Snelgrove and Zana Vaughn, who play the parts of the son and daughter, George Medway and Sa- bina Medway, as usual fill their FOUR KINGSTON GIRLS GAVE UNIQUE CONCERT Big Audience Enjoyed Every Moment of Programme at Grant Hall. The concert given in Grant Hall on Thursday evening under the aus- pices of Queen's Alumnae Assocla- tion was unique, for the programme was given entirely by four Kingston girls, three of whom have travelled far afield 'to perfect their{great mus- ical talents, and have brought home to our quiet city the splendid result of their labors. The large audience gave these young girls a hearty re- ception and enjoyed every moment of the delightful programme. The two bright daughters of Principal Taylor, who Kingston now clajms as her own. played the opening group for violin and plano. Miss Leslie Taylor who Re Repairing; Repairing 4,143 illustrations. PHONE 919, has studied in New York, has twice played with a Chatauqua company teuring the Western States and is! now first violin in- the Grand Opera House orchestra, was accompanied cleverly by her sister, Miss Lois Taylor, an undergraduate of Queen's, The slsters play beautifully together and Miss Leslie Taylor needs no - ments on her success as a violinist her satisfying technique, her fire and brilliance having captivated King- ston music lovers long ago. Of the nine violin and piano numbers per- haps those which gave most pleas- ure to the audience were the *'Suite in A Minor," (Sinding) "Nocturne," (Chopin-Wilhelmj,) and "Zigenner- welsen," (Sarasate) the Misses Tay- lor kindly responded to the applause. Miss Phyllis Knight, who has stud- ied the plang abroad bas been little heard by the Kingston public since her return and her exquisite music was listened to with delight, a per- fect tecnique, Sympathy and charm characterize her music, her numbers were well chosen and as Miss Jean roles perfectly. "Billy" Seymour as "General Batic" {is exceptionally good. The role of "Mary Medway," the unfortunate Captaiy'e wife, is | cleverly portrayed by orence Win. | ters. Gloria Machan as "Ada Baltic," and Joe Kelly as "Nod Stedam" play their parts well. Hazel Williams plays every part she is assigned to in a remarkabe manner, and to see her as the '"'darkey" is a treat. Howard and Hazel Brown furnish- ed a vaudeville number between tho second and third acts which was loudly applauded. Those' wishing a good laugh should witness "And She Turned Up," which will be repeated at the Grand tonight, Saturday mati. nee and night. FIRST KINGSTON VOICE" TO BE SENT BY RADIO Jack Elder, Scotch Entertain er, 8ang on Wednesday Evening. The distinction of being the first Kingstonian to have his voice broad- casted goes to Jack Elder, the well- known local tobacconist, who is bet- ter known outside the city and in some circles within it as a very able singer and Scotch entertainer. On Wednesday evening the Canada Radio Stores tried out their broad- casting apparatus, much to the de- (light of many amateurs in the dis- trict and the first voice to carry over the air was that of Mr. Elder, singing some of Als favorite Scotch songs. } Reports from the district indicate that this first concert was a great success. A telephone message from Clayton, N.Y., on the following \lay to the Canada Radio Stores, said that they heard Mr. Elder wonder- fully well and that they wanted to hear some more in the near future. "Jack" Elder's services as an en- tertainer are so much in demand that he hardly knows how to keep up with invitations. The latest one is from down in Glengarry County ana is for New Year's eve. He may be forced to refuse some but those who know him rather think that this in | vitation will not go unheeded. | IN MARINE OIROLES There was a heavy sea on Thura- day evenim; and Friday morning, and there has been little movement among the vessels. Many of the boats were forced to take shelter during the night. The tug Oswegatchle, which.clear- ed from the Davis drydock on Thurs- day morning, was unable to make Oswego, and is now here for shelter.
