As a result, when the show was ready to be put on, the managers discovered that the excellent company had carried out the instructions to the letter, and that the singing, dancing, comedy, and scenic effects surpassed any previous production of its kind. The cast includes Rosie Quinn, Conroy and Le Maire, the comedians, and the success, "The Elopers" is the head- liner. The musical numbers are up to date and the cast is headed by Miss Jessie Maker and Teddy and Nellie McNamara. The act is staged in an elaborate manner and many changes of costume are made.

With its galaxy of stars, Irving Ber- lin's syncopated melange of music, "Watch Your Step," will be presented at the Whitney theater, Tuesday, Dec. 19. The piece fairly radiates with syncopated life and its music cannotPE be compared with that of any similar p production.
