HIS MAJESTY' THEATRE.
A bright holiday programme for bright holiday people—-or better still, for dull ones—is the rule at His Majesty's Theatre this week. The theatre was filled last evening when the change of bill was presented, and the audience was plainly well pleased with the rollicking spirit of the entertainment as a whole ilr AL . Bruce and Company were even uuft'e successful in their second revue, "Hello, Papa !" than they were in last week's nonsensical musical farce '-'Hello, Papa .'" centres round the unexpected visits of Izzy Cohen and Patrick Murphy to Paris where their respective son and daughter have blossomed out in the society world into Maurice Cohnette and Lizzette Cohnette, nee Lizzette Murpheweha Cohen' and Murphy are persuaded to change their names accordingly, but they far from enjoy the change or the society life, but everything ends ns it should. The Rosebuds, a bright team, of ballet dancers and sfagers, supply colour and dash to tue farce. The vaudeville section of the programme is equally enjoyable. Some of the most popular turns are contributed by the Homaz Trio, the Gilberts, Ethel Vaugn, a talented comedienne whose forte is original, and unexpected recitations of a topical character Violet Trevenyon, who is always welcome on a vaudeville - programme, James and Selma, and the Scotch comedian Hughie Ogilvie.
