Not liking the stern methods of his stepfather, Johnny goes to the city with jars of jam. Ho climbs aboard a Pullman car, and while disguised a,s a negro porter he'meets Dorothy Teuton. In the city ho seeks a job in a hotel, and becomes a waiter and a young man in love at tho same time, but he does not forget his mother's jam. The story is laughter-provoking from start to finish. At one time Johnny finds he is included 'in a group of waiters at a fashionable party, and lie decides to become a waiter and guest at the same time. He confides to Dorothy that ho will amuse the guests by pretending to be -a waiter. The fun becomes furious, and' the story lias a happy ending. The programme includes excellent supports, and the orchestra supplies appropriate music in finished style.
