This evening at the Opera House, E. J. Carroll will present the World's Greatest Entertainer, Sir Harry Lauder and his new company of International vaudeville artists. The famous comedian will include in his programme this evening a budget of new numbers i:i song, sketch and story from his enormous repertoire and, if time will permit, some of the old favourites for which dozens of written requests have been received by the Sir Harry has never been in better form and he is assured of a hearty welcome when he steps on the stage tonight. He has no equal in the world of entertainment and he has been aptly described as "ever new." The supporting company as chosen by E. J. Carroll, is a particularly strong one, and every artist is of international repute and worthy 1o support the star. Tho following is the personnel of the company: "Tiki" Carpenter, the surprise packet, direct from London where he had a most successful season in a most novel and artistic presentation; Miss Beryl Wentworth is a singer of catchy chorus songs which she has featured in many countries; Rtiperl Hazel and Elsie Day, known as I ho harm.onylarit.y duo, are sure laughter getters, and their offering is the essence of originality; the Eredo Bros., comedyacrobatic violinists present an exciting and thrilling act and come direct from tho Orphcum Circuit, U.5.A.,; what is described as one of the cleverest acts in vaudeville is provided by Don Julian continental cartoonist and lightening sketch artist, he has not quite mastered the English language but this rather adds than detracts from his clever patter. A fine orchestra under the conductorship of the distinguished musician, Haydn Bock completes a bill that would indeed be hard to beat. The Box Plan is at the Majestic Buildings, Broadway, 'phone 7178, and patrons are recommended to reserve their scats.
