CHILDREN OF JAZZ.

Arc morals and manners better or worse to-day than they were in 1850 l What effect would 1850 customs have upon the modern jazz existence. Is the present day fiapper overdoing it t See all these problems silted out at the Town Hall Cabaret to morrow evening, when

How the children of jazz after many dramatic occurrences, come to a realisation that too rnuny of the frivolities ol life are harmful, makes a decidedly interesting story. Among the big scenes are colourful jazz parties, a snow party, an airplane escapade followed by the wreck of the plane at sea, and the exciting rescue of the pilot who has been pinned under the water. The line cast is headed by Eileen Percy, Robert Cain and Theodore Koslolf. Also comedy “His Naughty Night.” Usual Cabaret prices. See “Romance Laud” on Saturday night.
