Since musical shows these days nrc
nothing but elaborated vaudeville pro
grams, it seems te be the nim of the
producers te have a ecrtnin proportion
of the "nets" outstanding enough te
bridge ever the dull spots in between.
"Tip-Tep" is wonderfully cxempla
ttvc of that. Few would euro te claim
that It is thc oquel of the Stene shows
of the past, but it has some features
that get thc audience into se laughing
n mood that they don't netice whnt
stupid stuff fellows. First of all, there
are the Duncan Sisters. In many ways
the best "team" here this year; then,
paralleling Ted. Lewis and his saxo
phone artists, there is in "Tip-Tep"
the Six Brown Brethers, and matching
the California Ramblers of the Zieafeld
Frolic nre the Sixteen Jenden Palace

i theatre Thursday- morning for a ie
henrsul with a manuscript in his hand.
Miss' Greenwood was reciting her line
und the author frowned cm he, 'leakid
at his "script." "Xtick te the Hues,
please, he said, and then iMcmy
apologized. "I've get thc wrong manu

news of thc Radie field as THE DIGEST gives of every ether field of human thought and
endeavor. Every interest will be served. Prospective purchasers will be guided and informed ;
these contemplating making their own outfits will be given instructions en what te de and

new development.
In keeping with thc high standard set by every ether department of THE DIGEST,
thc new Radie department will be under thc direct supervision of an expert and high
authority, assuring readers of unbiased, correct, and genuinely helpful service.
Se far as is possible, all articles will be written in clear, non-technical language for
these net familiar with all thc scientific terms or principles of Radie. Yet they will be as
easily understood by the expert as by the layman and beginner, and will be freely illustrated.
Thus THE LITERARY DIGEST inaugurates a new, unique, and helpful service
of pronounced value and almost unlimited scope for which thc phenomenal interest of hun
dreds of thousands of people in Radie has created a positive, ever-increasing demand.
