The l play has been running for sixteen | months at the Oxford Theater in Ixiti ; don. a success that promises to no j duplicated in New York, where Mr. and Mrs. Coburn are presenting it to crowded houses nightly at the Cort i 1 healer. The authors call their play, which 'is a comedy with music, "a fragment I from r ranee in two explosions, seven splinters and a short gas attack." However. while "The Better 'Ole" treats of the recent war, it makes you forget its horrors in a barrage of ( laughter: every splinter of the seven is s. shaft of fun, and the short gas (attack is made with laughing gas. This unique wartime play with 'music is based on Captain Bnirns -1 father's famous book. "Fragment From France." In it appears the fa miliar trio, "Old Bill." "Bert" and ."Alf." The play takes its name from a picture in the Bairnsfather book, 'where a soldier is squatting in a shell (hole, bombs bursting all around him. IA comrade looks in and criticises the I shell hole. "if you know where there's a better 'ole, go to it!" replies the llrst man. The play has a large ! chorus and there are many musical ! numbers. " ■PKwwMi ■n ■hhH M 9 JIIoREihH ShkLJnß I ~ !

Dnncannon, Marysviile, Newport and Dauphin are certain of rep resentation. The makeup of the remainder of the league is doubtful.

Roth are considered good base- I hall towns, but are located at a \ considerable distance from the others. This is especially true of ! Reedsville. Another important subject that | will receive consideration this I evening is that relative to the ! number of non-resident players j to be permitted on the several i teams and a salary limit. The ; salary limit of previous years was | observed by none, of the towns ] and all of them run wild in tlie ! amount paid to players. These I excessive expenses are held to have been largely responsible for i tiie league to get into action last year. Some towns have instruct ed their delegates to this even ing's meeting to tight for a low limit of non-resident players. Marysviile fans held a get-to gether meeting last evening in the Municipal building. A com l mittee was named to attend this evening's meeting. Paul L. Kllen berger is chairman of the com mittee.

"The Bettei 'Ole" is the comedy of] the war. it shows the men in thol trenched as they were during the big! conflict, and it is not overdrawn in! any particular. There are no heroes, I no forced moments —everything is na tural and unstilted. It is a visualiza tion of the life of the fighters in their lighter 'moments, when they laughed and kidded and loved. The.players appearing in the screen version of "The Better 'Ole" are those j who made such an enormous hit in the original production. They are all; skilP'd players who were chosen be cause of the fact that they were the personification of the author's ideas le garding the various characters. They certainly give a most delightful pre-! sentalion of this most pleasing com- ! edy. The Victoria Theater takes pleasure! in unqualifiedly recommending "Tnef Better 'Ole" to all its patrons, and in) assuring them that when they see this i production they will see a screen I drama which will interest and charm j litem from start to finish.
