FRANK RICHARDSON'S VOICE.
Young in years, but a thorough trouper with a background rivall- ing the experience of many of the old timbers in the history of the stage and screen, Frank Richard- son is possessed of a fine tenor voice, He gave promise as a singer from the tender age of eight. From that time on he has steadily risen until to-day he is one of the out) standing performers in Movietone production.
EL
Frank Richardson is to be seen and heard in the "The New Movie tone Follies of 1980,", on the | Queen's Theatre.
Brondel, Marjorie White, William Collier, jun., Noel Francis and Miriam Seegar are also featured under Ben-) jamin Stoloff's direction from the story and dialogue by William K. Wells.
Richardson was born in Philadel phia. He left school and Immedi- ately went in for singing and other musical phases..
His first public appearance was in the Bijou Theatre in Philadel phia. Thereafter, when he had considered his voice aufficiently developed, and being young enough| to delight in novel experiences, he Jolned a medical show, only to a tent show soon after. There- after he responded to a favourable vaudeville offer.
The Dumont's Minstrels soon) made him a flattering offer and vaudeville lost one of its sparkling singers.

She went as a "G.P.R. advertisement" and when you look. at the above photograph you will not be surprised to learn that she was awarded the prize for the most original costuine." Booklets, Jabels, badges, mottoes and C.P.R designs make up a beautiful and effective ensemble. Miss Powell says that the service and kindness ahe received while on the liner inspired her to think of this notion of a masquerade costume.
