It will be presented in Jordan Hall on Wednesday and Thursday, December 10 and 11, at 8 o'clock. Tickets at $1.50 may be obtained from C.W. Cheney '15 at Randolph 26 or at Herrick's. Balcony seats at 75 and 50 cents are on sale at the Co-operative Branch and at the Schoenhof Book Company, 128A Tremont street, Boston.
