It will repeat its performance tomor-" row afternoon and again id the evening and anyone who misses It will be a sorrowful loser. * It has been some time since the stage at the Town Hall has had such a gorgeous setting as that provided at the performance of the Broadway Flashes. Opening with the full drop curtain, an ev- ening cabaret scene {is presented, which is enhanced by a dance by the four members of the girl's troupe. These dances are far from being amateurish as expected at performances in a town of this size, since the company here now have just come off the Leow eir- cuit, where they played blg time vaudevillle. One of the main characters in the show and one of the best to be seen on the modern stage, is the female impersonator. He is a "hit" if ever thede was one, and until the latter part of the enter tainment is unknown in his true person, As a singer, his work is ranked splendidly, and as an in- rr Sp-ingtime is an answer to Faith--Faith that makes work blessed and attainment possible.

He was missing all day and his disapeparance roused not only the anxiety of his parents but also neighbors who united in scouring the coutnryside. Chief of Police Gun- son, of Whithy, was informed and the chicf assisted hy telephoning des- cription of the lad to Oshawa, Bow- manville, Port Hope and neighboring towns, Late in the afternoon when Wesley was found in the ditch, appargntly the victim of assault, the chief was summoned to inyestigate the circum- stances, He did not, however, notice any indication of rough handling on the boy and after close questioning the lad admitted that he had played hookey and his story ahout the blue car and the two kidnappers was but an alibi, PF) certainly a treat to difficult routine, Edna Miller who was advertis- ed as the girl with the golden voice, was all that the audience looked for." Her volce is an at- traction alone worth the price of admission, and her. songs are put over in splendid style, The musical part of the show was handled under the direction of Rae McKay, who put it across famously. Altogether the show is fine. Unlike most of the travelling en- tertalnments, it is clean through- out, and anyone seelng it will agree to the letter that it is an attraction worth witnessing.
