PASSING OF THE ENGLISH ACTOR-MANAGERS

The death of Sir George Alexander, following so close upon that ofSir Herbert Tree, brings vividly home to us a fact of which we have been

. vaguely aware for some time—namely, that the period of the actor-man-agera is coming to an end. writes William Archer In The London Nation,and that we are well over the threshold of a new period, in which anotherform of organization Is evidently destined to prevail in the theaters ofLondon. The actor-manager of Alexander's and Tree's type has prac-tically passed away.

There were, of course, aclor-managers, such as Garrick himself, inthe days of the patent theater, but the whole system was then so utterlydifferent that they scarcely come Into the comparison. The modern

America and had made Charles Frohman the Napoleon of the stage. Ishall not attempt here and now to strike a balance between the twosystems, but shall merely say that the big impresario Is now the domi-nant figure in London theatrical life.

"We have our Alfred Butt, our Grossmith and Laurlllard, our CharlesCochrane, and we have no successor to George Alexander or BeerbohmTree. Even stars of some magnitude, like Mr. Gerald du Maurler or MissGladys Cooper, when they go Into management, do so under the wing, soto speak, of a big Impresario. The effects sf this change are very hardto predict, especially while the war Is creating utterly abnormal the-atrical conditions.

> But one plain moral. It seems to me, Is that after the war a greateffort must be made to establish In London at least one real repertorytheater.—CHICAGO POST.

AT THE LAST TURNING

Carnivals have a rightMptlnn, and by virtue of its ..

rt awerve, It must^not

The carnival has a mission, -Its

and entertainInn strata. Pnacles of lewdness, vlclouboard called attention to the graveueBS of thehave, like loyal men wedded to the business, t .

over and havo stepped far ana away from the Impending cloud. To thesewill come the just rewards. To those who can not see, woift listen andcan not be made to hear we weep for their fate. To those who haveasserted themselves and have divined to heed the warnings we predictunprecedented prosperity, contented minds and lat bank accounts whenthe final total is written on the pages of American carnival history.

There is no score that will be recorded honorable or otherwise for thosethat persist In defaming, prostituting and goring the game. We cravethe attention of showmen before It is too late.

Showmen, wake up! Hear the cry of the times! Sidestep thosethat come to your lots and wave the "coin of the realm" as the flag oftruce for your capitulation for such features that suck the life's bloodout of an honorable profession. Gird your loins about you, look thesituation in the face and say: "Not me. My organization shall be clean

and my name shall mean something now and to posterity."—WM. JUD-K1NS HEWITT. .

(Reviewed Monday Matinee, June 10)

New York, Juno IS.—About the best program enjoyed at Oe Palacetor many a month was in evidence today. In spite of the sultry weather thefamous Temple of Vaudeville was crowded with the usual bunch of Mondayafternoon fans. And while this audience is cold at times towards certain

the Palace. New York,- and get away with it, but when you otep out on thestage st the Palace itself you have to step some to get over, believe ma.Jack Wilson ran away with the whole show.

Next week's bill features Blanche Ring.

No. 1—Hearst-Pathe News Weekly, showing- some of the fighting "tanks"in action on the other aide, furnished exceptions] entertainment to theearly comers.

No. 1—Earl Emmy and His Pets, meaning fourteen cleverly traineddogs, which -went thru a routine of tricks thai greatly pleased. This act Is

effect out of his offerings. He works the canines for all the world as tho hehe was exhibiting some pets In a drawing room for the -fceneflt of a fewfriends. The dog that does a "uindlegged" leap over seven of Its companionsis probably the best part of tbe act. Fourteen minutes, full stage; one bow.

No. 3—Donahue and Stewart signaled their return to the Palace bytaking a chance at the "Submarine" (No. 26) position on the bill and escapeevery cleverly the torpedoes and bombs which usually are strewn in the pathof occupants of this spot. Alice Marlon Stewart is a comedienne with orig-inal methods, and Donahue's eccentric dancing gave the artists three bowsafter seventeen minutes. In one. '

No. 4.—Regina Conneltl and Ruby Craven in John Reeds plavlet. MoonDown, which was originally one of the successes of the Washington SquarePlayers, but which has not much appeal to vaudeville, however excellentlyIt may be acted, ran for fifteen minutes and got two bows. The crowd althe Palace did not enthuse very much over this number.

No. S—Herbert Williams and Hilda Wolfus. recognised entertainers, ina corking demonstration of what vaudeville really Is. were a big hit. Wil-liams' antics at the piano, his funny buttoned shoes, and his unctuous comedywith the spotlight, ably assisted by Miss Wolfus. blended into a "nut" offer-ing of genuine meriL Seventeen minute?, -with lour bows.

No. 6—Christie McDonald, late siar of The Spring Maid and other suc-

let called Cupid's Mirror, in which she EriuSlifled'bV fr'(neBRman°and w7

11am Beig. Tbe setting Is very beautiful, with a silver transparency in thecenter, thru which Miss McDonald enters. The sear still retains the silveryvoice with which she has delighted thousands, and after singing four songswas rewarded with many curtain bows.

No. 3—Colombia and Victor, really Barto and Clark, offered a distinctivenovelty. It consists of this clever couple emerging from the cabinet of twomusical instruments after singing apparently from the records. They areclever singers and dancers, and their chatter recounting their various hap-penings is well written. The man says: "The machines had a fight last night,but Columbia was the Victor." This is a specimen of their fast stuff. Four-teen minutes, opening in one and then full stage; three curtains.

No. 4—L. Wolfe Gilbert and Anatole Frledland put over their unsurpassedsinging offering with much pep and ginger. Frledland. at the piano, followsGilbert's singing as only a composer could. One of their new ones. Brotherof the Lily of the Valley, was a big hit. Are You From Heaven.

Grace Da Winter is so different from most ventriloquists that it

would be unfair to call her one and let it go at that. She transmits hersinging voice to one lone dummy, but proves that alt kinds of songs,down to the dialect variety, are alike to her. She first appears In matecostume, bnt later she steps forth as a radiant young girl, which, in con-junction with the splendid quality of her work, evokes considerable ap-plause.

Ward and Van are not the only Italian street musicians In vaudeville,but their work is distinctive, to say the least. The violinist's endeavorsto keep his trousers from falling down and his carelessness of Instru-mentation, producing now and then most discordant music. Ii

Upon the speakers rests the responsibility or brinKing home to thepeople the necessity or their aiding materially such causes as the Amerl-

. cap Red Cross. It la- possible, thru only such men. as- yourself to raisefrom the public In a. limited period, the necessary funds for the RedCross to amtlnue Its good work. ...

_ The Speakers' Bureau is proud to have on Its list such a, man as .

yourself, . who sacrifices business demands and personal pleasures toanswer its requests for speakers to carry the message of the Red Crossto the people. Very truly yours, .

Don't Buy "Rosy Posy"IUNLESS EACH DOLL HAS

I THE ROSE LABEL OF THE

ELEKTRA TOY & NOV. CO.of oar customers working in territory

around Pittsburg ran short of "RosyPosy" and had to order from thenearest jobber. They ordered RceyPosy, which is made only by EHektja,

but when they opened their expressshipment tbey found that'what theyordered was substituted with an in-

ferior imitation. Don'taccept substi-

tutes. Demand the genome RosyPosy. It means 10 turns to 1 againstanything else if your stand is flashed

up with "ROSY POSY". Why?Because it is the biggest (15 inches),

flashiest and finest fur trimmed , silk

dressed baby on the market. It helps

# sell your paddles quicker. Rosy Postappeals to man, woman and child.

Just Returned From Porto Rico and Santo DomingoOB THE STEAMSHIP COAHO====

Phenomenal success attended ail my efforts. Will return on firsfc available steamer. My Amusement Company is

now in full operation in San Juan, Porto Rico, under the, management of Jack Brandon during my absence. Busi-ness being done is beyond all expectations. The new Porto Rican Cantonment just opened with 25,000 soldiers.

Seven days and seven nights a week play. WANT Shows, Concessions aad Riding Devices of all kinds; nothingis too high or too good for the entertainment of these people. Will furnish 50 per cent of the capital and will go inon a 50-50 basis with any showman that can produce the goods and knows what getting big money means. Skill

games are mopping up coin in a manner that is hardly believable, and want plenty more. Man with a Whip canpay for it in three weeks in this territory. Mechanical House, Pit Shows, Platform Shows, get in on this if you candeliver the goods. It is from now on a twelve months in the year proposition for first-class, money-getting show-men. Would like to hear from all the boys at tbe Beaches that are running on an uncertainty. Address, write,

wire or call FREEMAN BERNSTEIN, Pntnam Building, 1493 Broadway, New Tork City, N. T.P. S.—The boys that I advanced a few hundred dollars can come back and get a few more dollars if they need

it. Those that did not show up at the steamer are the losers.

i£od demonstrators by tbe hundredvera busy abowtne bow practicable andeasy tt was to utilise anbatitutea for

wheat, for flour, for ham, (or bacon,for beef and for all the foods whosecunBCrvalEon fust i at this time la amatter of the Bravest Importance.

Otherwise the work win not be use-

ful and the expedient win fall of its

purpose, because the laborer Is worthyof his hire and ha can not be expectedto. nor win he. go on laboring IT he Is

poorly paid or not paid at all.

The most useful work In the world is

Every Hand in the Land!Every Hand a Saving HandEvery Hand a Helping Hand

Lend Your Quarters to Uncle SamEvery One of Us Must Save Here for Victory "Over There"

13VERY one must lend some money to theri Government. And every one can lendB ^ some, if only a little. No matter howslim our purse or how small our earnings, eachand every one of us can spare a little for ourGovernment if we practice a litde thrift.

By investing inWARSAVINGS STAMPS theperson with only a few cents to spare can dohis or her share as well and as nobly as theman with a million to invest. Remember, theGovernment does not ask you to give yourmoney, but to lend it at interest. You makeit work not only for those "over there" butalso for you here, no matter how much orlittle it may be.

You may purchaseWAR SAVINGS THRIFTSTAMPS by paying the small amount of 25cents at a time. Sixteen Thrift Stamps plus afew cents in cash are exchangeable, for a FiveDollar WAR SAVINGS STAMP.The Five Dollar Stamps cost from $4.16 to

$4.23 each, according to the time purchased,and will be redeemed on January 1st, 1923,

at $5.00 each.

The Stamps [will be sold during May, 1918,

at $4.16 each, and the price will increase onecent a month during 1918.

At the average 1918 selling price, WAR SAV-INGS STAMPS will yieldyou on the redemp-tion date four per cent interest compoundedquarterly. In case of necessity they may beredeemed before January 1, 1923, with aboutthree per cent interest.

The investment is the soundeston earth. Theentire wealth and security of the United States

is back of them.

WAR SAVINGS STAMPS are as easy to buyas postage stamps. They are sold at postoffices, banks or trust companies, many rail-

way stations, stores, factories, agencies andother public places.

proved ability and reputation who can appreciate and deliver genuine, legitimate ComedyMaterial.

mm Here are a few of the many leading Vaudeville Stars—successful users of HerbertMoore material:

FOUR MORTONSMULLEN and COOGAN

RAE SAMUELSOLIVE BRISCOE and AL RAUHGRACE DE MAR I

FRANCES KENNEDY

ROONEY and BENT

mm With a salute in passing to two splendid "customers" and "boosters," Charlie King

(Brice and King) and Billie Taylor (Mayhew and Taylor), now doing "Theirs" for Uncle

Sam!

mm Royalty basis only. Will be pleased to hear from well-known Acts I have previously

been forced to decline because of lack of time. MILTON SCHWARTZWALD, Com-poser of "Florabella," is writing corking melodies for many of my Lyrics.

mm Artists! Next season will demand much of you. Be ready to meet that demand.Please note my new location. Call on or address me at

anything else if your stand is flashed
