MISS CLARA EVELYN AS THE “MERRY WIDOW” WHICH PART SHE IS NOW PLAYING ON TOUR.
It will be remembered that a few months back she made quite a sensation at Daly’s Theatre by her admirable playing of this role at a few hours notice owing to the sudden indisposition of the principal, Miss Lily Elsie.

The well known Gaiety smile is rampant in “Peggy,” perhaps because the new production boasts three leading ladies, Miss Olive May, Miss Phyllis Dare and Miss Gabrielle Ray.

Eleanor to Her Friends
A charming couple that we encountered in New York were Mr. and Mrs. Eric Loder, who have been for months in Canada settling up the affairs of Mrs. Loder’s late husband, the Canadian millionaire, Sir Mortimer Davis.
It is good news that they are coming over to London this spring, if only for a visit. Mrs. Loder – “Eleanor” to her friends – is a beautiful woman, with a tall, graceful figure, a flashing smile, and about the best collection of rubies we have ever seen.
