iiocse ti esimy mghi
A musical comedy three acts, to
be given at life Opera Hou.-.c Too-dry
night of next week, is without a doubt
one of the mu;t delightful home talent
production; ever staged in this pari
of the country. Williamstou people
bought "The Microbe (if Low" and
"Mr. :>.nd Mrs. Polly TicKk ' were
wonderful and could not l> • «|u;il l.
but ' Th* Flapper Grandmother" fjir
sttipas?os them both Every one h;>s
rare tr«>:.t in store r.nd r'in or
'hilt", you just afford to miss
it.
Tha plot deals wi«h an old grand
ait who invested Tier littTi "Savin-;.' Th"
oil, from which rhe h c:>nie a million
aire and wrt to Europe in search of
voutS and beauty. In the offlc- of
'Or. I. Skinnum har old f;.ce was
mail* new and .-he returned ,o Ameri
ca a real flapper grandmother. I» is
* riot of fun and laughter—in fact
tn audience ju t laughs until it is

The song hits arf right up to the
minu'e. The whole comedy is a classy
production— in fact it is a whale of
a hit from beginning to end, the au
dience recovering from one convusion
>f laughter only to go into another.
The ridiculou* matrons attending
'he bargain sale, good looking "Jelly
Means," pretty chorus girls, the pre
r;ous little children, rag dolls and lit
-le grandmas, to say nothing of nil
'he main jeading characters, will si i*
ty appeal to all
llring your handkerchiefs along be
cause you will laugh until you try.
Check your critical faculties at the
rxj* office when you come in the door,
so you may relax your face and give
it a genuine treat in the way of-a
-rood laugh.
Word-* simply fail us when we try
lo describe the beauty, grace and ir
resistable charm of the 16 lovely girls
who compose the chorus in "The Flap
per Grandmother". When it comes to
honest to goodness charm and down
right good-lookingness this chorus
can actually make the Follies look
like a ladies aid society on a hot Au
