CRAFTSMEN’S STRIKE ENDS WITH VICTORY FOR WORKERS

MME. PUBILLONES

Men Returned to Work in Laboratories on Monday

Rec<^gnition of Union and Big¬ ger Pay Agreed Upon

New York, July SO.—^Last night, at a special meeting of the Actors’ Equity Association, held at the Hotel Astor, the members present rejected In its entirety a proposition offered them by the Touring Managers’ Asso- ciataon, by which the latter would be allowed concessions from the Stand¬ ard Form of P. M. A--A. EJ. A. con¬ tract used by the Equity and the Pro¬ ducing Managers’ Association. Th^ vote was practically unanimous.

By the motion the Council was in¬ structed to notify the Touring Mana¬ gers' Assoclatioa that the E^iulty de¬ manded the same form of contract from the T. M. A. as that they are working under with the P. M. A. This notice wa.s served on the managers in an official communication from l-'rank Glllmore, the EJxecutlve Secre¬ tary of the A. E. A., in a letter sent to John Coleman, secretary-treasurer of the T. M. A. today.

The meeting at the hotel was called to order by Tom Wise, who acte4 as presiding ofllcer. After reading the t all for the meeting Mr. Wise read a cablegram from John Emerson, sent from England. In his message the Equity president eald he regretted not l>eing able to be prc5»ent at the mcetlrg, but be was sailing on July 31 for America. He also said that the English and French actors and dramatists were In hearty accord with Equity, and anxious to oo-operate with them.

Following the reading of the cable¬ gram Frank Qlllmore put the propo¬ sition of the Touring Managers’ As.soclation before the meeting In the following speech:

"It will bo my endeavor to place before you a clear and concise ac¬ count of the *conver8ation8' which have taken place between your repre- entatlves and the members of the

committee of the Touring Managers’ Asroclatlon. About three weeks ago We were Inrited to meet them at this

Christmas Festival in Chicago Coliseum Abandoned

Chicago. July 31.—At a special meeting of the Board of Governors of the Showmen’s Leagrue of America this week, called by President Ed¬ ward C. Talbott, who presided, the date of the annual banquet and ball was changed from F’ebruary, during which month It has hitherto been held, to December.

The reason for making the change was thut December is a more con¬ venient month for most of the show¬ men to come to Chicago than FVb- ruar>’. According to Mr. Talbott the demand w'as so widespread, not to say universal, among the show people for a change In the date of the function, that he came to Chicago especially from his summer home in Michigan to call the meeting. At the meeting the sentiment of the members of the Board

New’ York, Aug. 2.—The strike of ■the laboratory w’orkers has ended, with victory for the workers, the Na¬ tional Association of the Motion Pic¬ ture Industry, thru Tom Evans, Chairman of the Laboratory Sec¬ tion of the association, agreeing to recognize the union, and enter Into immediate negotiations. The work¬ ers returned to work this morning with the assurance that representa¬ tives of the manufacturers will meet with officials of the film workers thi.« afternoon at 2:30 for a conference to agree upon a wage scale and other matters.

’The strikers have been out about two weeks, the strike being the re¬ sult of a long controversy between w’orkers and manufacturers The In¬ itial deimands of the workers were made June 5 last, when a prospectus was presented to the manufacturers, which the Craftsmen claim received no attention. An ultimatum was is¬ sued July 19 by the workers to the ef¬ fect that they would walk out If their demands for better hours and bigger pay were not granted. No attention was paid their demands, and on Tues- 'day, July 20, the laboratory workers calmly left their Jobs, tying up about thirty large and small laboratories in and about New York, crippling them to the degree that it was with the greatest difficulty that news releases were gotten out.

It has been agreed by the manufac¬ turers that there w’ould be no dis¬ crimination against Individual mem¬ bers of the film W’orkers’ union on ac¬ count of strike activities, but the asso¬ ciation asserts that it will not re-em¬ ploy workers who have left Its em¬ ployment and whose places have been filled satisfactorily.

In a statement to The Billboard to¬ day George Woodruff, secretary of the Craftsmen, said: ’The associa¬ tion agrees to recognize s as a labor organization and concedes that we

OPENS WITH ‘‘FRECKLES”

Nonda, N. Y.. Jnly 31.—The New Academy,

onder the management of Ckaa. Saxton, will

open the regular season Angnst 27 with

"Frecklea,** management of Joe Rith. Mr.

big star in order to please them, bat when the SECOND-CLASS company comet around he M> coups himself at its expense.

"All wages having gone up company traveling Is undoubtedly very expensive these days. Hie transfer men receive 100 per cent more than they did n few years ago. This additional transfer ex[>ense and the raise in railroad and freight rates makes It especially hard on those companies which play a new town every night. It was also contended that the royalties second-class managers have to pay are considerably in excess of those paid by Hrst-class managers, the reason being that the author gets bis straight per¬ centage and the manager who produced it orig¬ inally and uses It for a season or two gets some¬ thing for himself in addition.

"I have only mentioned a few of the expenses which have to be paid by the small manager.

"Now it Is known to yon that the Acton’ Dqnity Association has several forms of contract, all differing in detail. We have the Firat-Olass PTodnetioDS Contract, the Popular Price or Dol¬ lar Top Contract, the Stock Contract and the Tryout Contract. The Hollar Ti^ or Popular Price Contract differs In the main from the First- Class Productions Contract in that It permits the manager to play ten performances a week. Now the Touring Managers feel that they should come under this contract, and not under the First-Class I’roductions Contract, but at the same time thdy do not wish to be held down to dol- lar-top prices. They say that the cost of theater admission has gone up in some rases nearly 10<> per cent and that there is practically no longer any traveling attraction which can afford to play for a dollar top. Therefore they desire that the new contract, which they wish to make with ns, should be labeled 'two-dollar top.’ but they would agree that if they happened to play for a week In any flrst-clasa theater then sa d contract would be automatically changed to the F^rst-Class Pro- dnetions Contract. In regard to the number of performances per week, they want to be allowed to play ten as in the Popular Price Contract, but that at the end of the season they would be will¬ ing to count up the total number of performances given during said season, to divide same by the number of weeks played, and for all perform¬ ances over an average of eight per week to pay for same at the rate of one-eighth. In that way, presuming that a company had played In a sea¬ son of ten weeks <I make the number small so that the figuring will be easier for you), pre¬ suming that a company had played in a season

DIFFERENCES

Between Musicians and Movies

In Chicago Caused By Misun¬ derstanding Say Federation

Officials—Term It Lock- / out, Not Strike

Ohicago, July 29.—Joseph F. Winkler, presi¬

dent, and Charles G. Haight, business agent,

of the Chicago Federation of Mnslcians, made

n statement to The Billboard regarding the

differences existing between the federation and

the Allied Amusement Association and dne to

which the mnslcians are practically all oat of

the picture bouses at the present time.

"Somebody has circulated the report that we

are asking for a straight 76 per cent increase,”

said Mr. Winkler, "which is nntme. What we

are asking for is an increase of 50 per cent on

the basic scale as follows: llonses charging

15 cents admission are now paying mosiciana

$36 ft week. Each five cents additional that

the bonses charge they are paying the mu- alrlana an additional one dollar a week, so

that musiciana working in bouses charging

fifty cents are drawing $42 a week.”

There are about four hundred movie bonses

in the Chicago Jurisdiction of the Federation.

It la reported that several score bouses, all

members of the Allied Amusement Asaociation,

have secretly signed op with the Federation.

Tbia report cannot be confirmed publicly. Ac¬

cording to Mr. Winkler and Mr. Ilalgbt, who

term the condition n lockout Instead of n etrike, the movie owners have not made a

$1% a week.

itrdinary musicians for snch p«-rfonnan<'es

ask $<>i a week for five boprs' work a day,

while leaders request $00 a week, said John

Ketiler, secretary of the Musi'lans' Association.

The present wages are $30.50 for movie mn-

sirluns fur five hours’ work, $4'.’ for vaudeville

muslrians for five hours, $45 for five and a half

bums, and $.y> for six hours.

A Te;a rt that the Manageta’ Association had

agreot t-> uffer an Increaae of $6 a week bad

reached the mnalciana' hendqnarters, but Mr.

Kessler said the committee bad not yet official¬ ly rci>ortc<l.

A meeting of the mnsiedans will be held

early next week to considrr the employers’

answer. The new scale ia to take effect, tha

mosiciana aay, on Auguat 1.

of ten weeks ninety performances instead of eighty, ten-elghtba additional salary would be dne every member at the rloae, but if the av¬ erage per week be less than eight, of course, there would be no deduction. They, the Tonring Managers, also state that the week before Christ¬ mas and Holy Week are dead losses to them and that if the.v were compelled play same many of them would be forced out of the business, and that those who remained would have to close their seasons the week before Holy Week rather than face the loss, whereas their usual custom Is to continue playing five, six or more weeks after¬ wards. In this way they say that an insistence on payment for Holy Week wonld prove a boom'

proposition of any kind to the Federation.

NEXT 8. L. OF A. BANQUET-BALL WILL BE HELD IN DECEMBER

(Continued from page 5)

of Governors was nnanimonsly in favor of bold¬ ing tbe fnnetion in December.

Therefore tbe annual banquet and ball will be held in Chicago tbe same week that tbe Inter¬ national Live Stock show is held here, and while tbe fair secretar es are in session. Thus gbe dif¬ ferent wings of tbe amusement world interested in the event will ail be here and able to attend in a body. True, the fair secretaries who have held their conventions in December, and an. other meeting in February, have been able in a measure to be present. Rut the Decmber con¬ vention of tbe fair men is tbe big event and a bigger crowd is attracted then.

Another factor intrudes itself also. A nnm. her of the carnival men open in February. These men have no time to come hnndreds of miles to Chicago when they are busy with tbe responsi¬ bilities of a se.'ison'n opening—and they don’t come, either. The December date will relieve this condition.

EXiward P. Neumann, chairman of the execu¬ tive committee of tbe bonquet and ball, who made such a conspicuous succesa of the last two' affairs thru sheer business acumen and sagacious 'tact, will have full cliarge of the vast details of tbe huge function again this season, which makes all speculation useless.

However, tbe big Christmas Festival in the Coliseum, which the league fiisd planned to bold two weeks before Christmas, has been perma¬ nently abandoned for this year, and the proposed function has been called off. The reason is that there is nobody with sufficient time to give to the undertaking. Thomas P. Convey, head of the committee having tbe event in charge, is so t.ed up with his own business affairs that it ia impossible for him to assume the added re- •pons.bility.

These plans will in no way affect or change the plans of the Ladies’ Auxiliary of the League with respect to their bazaar to be held in the Loop the first or second week in December, iu cooiidiance with plans already laid.

Tlte coiiunittee of the 'Pouring Managers also stated that it was tme that the salaries of the aetosrs they employed were not as high as those paid by the first-class manugers, but the'r receipts were much less, and the ixTcenfage they recelvt-d from the local managers was smaller. Of course, we know that when I'lg allrnctions go to little towns they re¬ ceive eighty-five and even ninety per cent of the gross receipts and that this leaves a very small margin of pn»flt to the loesi theater manager in¬ deed, frisiimtly none at ail.

and arrived with bells on In “Wsicome, Stran-

*er," will round out twenty-five years on the

■tage September 6,

Bert Levy plays the King’s heater, Sonthsea. August 2, and !■ understood to be actively engaged is writing a detailed article for publication here and In America answering pertinent QueatloDa relating to the whole constitution of the N. Y. A. Club, Its workings and Its con¬ nection with K. F. Alhee. The motto of the Variety Artistes’ Federation In this affair is cantion, and while granting that each person haa his own angle of thought the Variety Artistes’ Federation's only Interest Is that of the world c«insolldatlon of artists’ organizations. The Variety Artistes’ Federation Committee always remembers that it has never had to fight an overlaiiping society in England, and that conBe<iuently, apart from bonds of afflliatinn with the American .Artistes’ Federation, it appreciates the fight put up by the apparently under dog. Nevertheless It ia the aincere hope and aim of the Variety Artistes’ Federation officials that a beneficial understanding be arrived at If aecreoy be the life aim of the powers that be, so that, as in England, an Industrial council of the whole industry can he formed at which both artist and prorpietor can have e<iaal representation and a square deal.

REFERENCE TO VAUDEVILLE AVOIDED John Emerson, president of the Actors' Equity Aseociation, altbo meeting the Actora* Aa-

aoclatlon committee, made no attempt to Interview the Variety Artistes’ Federation offlciala. There have lieen many prominent folk this side connected with American vandevllle, hut all have avoided, either from preference or InstmctionB, any reference to matters concendng B. F. Alhee, American Artistes’ Federation or the N. V. A.

LAURA GUERITE REJOINS V. A. P. Despite the 'bard thing* said and written by Laura Onerite in 1816, penning the Variety

Artistes’ Federation in “Veracity," that lady has recently rejoined the English organisation. Consequently one must opine that the influence at work In America then may havb had reason to have altered their Ttewpoint today.

EDICT AGAINST TIPS TO RESIDENT STAGE CREWS The Association of Touring Managers has Issued a decree that on and after August 2 no

Hpt are to be given to any uiemhers of resident stage crews of the A. T. M. The association atates that MacDonald and Y'oung'a tiiia last year amounted to ten thonsand dollars.

COMEDIANS MUST PAY FOR BREACH OF CONTRACT WiUlam Hensbull, otherwise known as Leo Frits, at one time a ten percenter in Tande-

viUe, but now debarred by the London County Ouuncll, aned Scott and Whaley, colored come¬ dians. for damages for breach of contract. 'The team was to have played thru In his revue. “Me and My Oal.” receiving Jointly gMO weekly. Scott alleged that revue work waa too hard and Injurtous to his health, so be and Whaley refused to work fur Henshall. The team then hooked up their vaudeville act for ll.OOO weekly.

Medical experts offered evidence pro and con. the trial lasting three days, ending In a verdict against the team and awarding Henshall $30,000 and costs, which will probably be an¬ other $2,000.

EXPERIMENTS AND EXPERIENCES OF C.'B. COCHRAN Yhe one and only live manager, to-wlt, C. B. C., thinks that theaters become more and

more expensive to operate, and he feels very strongly that onr prl< es are too cheap. He 1* strongly in favor of the $3.75 stall, and that no seats should be procurable under 62 cents. C. B. C. once experimented with a $5.25 stag, and, altho he dhairged his policy afterwards, he think* the experiment was meet Interesting. He blames the play for the failure, and not because of the high rate of seatage, as be admits, and he is most candid In these matters. The particular play In question did not even attract with a etallsge at half the price.

COCHRAN AGAINST THE WORKS OF EX-ENEMY ALIENS Months ago, when De Oonrvllle flew bis “kite" letter In The Times as to what the British

public thought of his Ides of Introducing plays by enemy aliens, Cochran came out with the right-handed punch against any such Idea, -tgaln, even at thla date, he notices a tendency among certain managers to produce German and .Yustrlan plays. He alleges that certain of these shows are now In active preparation. He further makes the startling announcement that when the ex-enemy-anthor emissaries offere<l these same goods to him they stated that the authors were willing to hide thelp Identity under some ©"ier name, and he waa told that ar¬ rangements had been made so that the authorship should be fathered—by consent—on American writera and cumposera.

WHERE STANDS THE A. A.7 On this question there Is dleiwnslon on the Council of the Actors’ Association. Jlorman

McKlnnell. J. I'Yeher White and Ben Webster express the oplnhin that this ex-enemy question docs not concern them and they see no reason for excluding works of the modem author, be he of enemy or friendly extraction. The rank and file of the -Y. A. Connell differ, and ao also do the majority of the provincial section, it Is underitandable. but not excusable, for the West End section to adopt this attitude, as the.v are. no donht, the more Interested in HIGH ART. The solution of the presentation of these plays In this country lies entirely with the actors, and If they were firm and refused to perform therein the answer would be certain.

THE AMERICAN INVASION C. B. C. has something to say on this matter. The American market clamors for good

Bngllsli plays, and the traffic Is not all one-sided. C. B. C. haa an Interest In no less than eight plays In the States during the forthcoming season. He admits England does not want bad .Vmerican plays any more than America wants ba<l English plays, but he thinks It only right that we abould get all the good American plays and as maiy good American performers a* -Ymerica can igiare. He pins his belief to the fact that reel,': .city In the matter of plays and actora rendera the greatest possible service In maintaining cordial relations between Allied countries.

FRANK CURZON AND DENNIS EADIE “My Lady’s Dress” will continue at the Royalty Theater until the time comet when Gladys

Cooper has to leave to produce ’’Wedding Bells" at the Playhouse, where she will he associated with Owen Nates. Dennis Kadle promises then to hive a short holiday, and early In September to reopen the Royalty with a new play, entitled ‘‘The Romantic Y'onng Lady,” translated fmm the Hpanlkh of G. Martinez Slerre. It la a comedy of the light romantic order, and contaisa ahaolutely nothing In the nature of tense drama. Dennis Eadte will play the lead, and the occasion will mark the return to the English “producing’’ department of G. H. Granville Barker.

VIOLA TREE AND THE ALDWYCH When the Guitry season flnlshe.1 ila hrlUlant five weeks’ run It was understood that the

Aldwych would be reopened under Mies Tree’s management with Bdyth Goodall. This falling thru, the Ismte has been dark—like many others lately—but announcement la now made that she has made arrangements with W. Someret Maughan to produce a new play there, entitled ’■Billy." The theme It of the problem kind, being the struggle In the mind of a man wounded in the late war between the rival claims of agnosticism and religion.

MORE COCHRAN The Oxford Theater has passed Into the control of Cochran for a long period on the con¬

dition that he make eome badly needed struotural alterations. This he Is about to do. and therefore “The Man Who Came Back” will he transferred shortly to the Princese Theater, and the hnUdera will get to work on the comer of Tottenham Court Road. So that be may get ahead of bis trade rival* here with bit stage lighting be haa borrowed one of Belasco’s elec¬ tricians to aui>ervlae the existing electric Inatallation. By the way. George Dellaway at the Ktrand Theater is very proud of Ills half-watt lamp#, w'bich do away with the necesalty of jierch or other limes. “Our George" Is always enlarging on their merits, and, as Sherdlan la the head elei'trii’lan there, no donbt thla la why Cochran has gotten to hear of It. Well, to get back to the Oxford. It will be altered Interiorally so that none will remember that It waa*ever A vaudeville house!

cmaa-examined sa to his stage hahii of never telling the truth (In the case of litigation over plaglariim re "Nothing But the Truth’-,, srles haa had a worrying time.

out to discover the wheieaboutn of this famous book.

It develops that Julius Cahn is publishing the

new book, which wUl make Its appearance

sbo.-tl/ nnder the name of Jnllas Cabn’s Guide

and Motion Picture Directory. It U cou-

■olldated with Gus Hill’s National Directory

and Judging from appearances the new guide will be a whopper. Hgures that Mr. Cahn has

compiled form Interesting data relative to the

theatrical Industry. For instance, he says that

he flods there are over 6.600 one-nlght-stand

theatera In the United States, there ire 12,000 theaters devoted exclusively to motion plctares

SDd In New York City and Tlclnlty there are 1,600 motion picture 'bouses. There are 700

theatera in this country devoted to vsudevllle

exclusively and 2.000 combination vaudeville

and picture houses. The census snows an

average Increase of 20 per cent la the num¬

ber of theaters since the last publication of

the directory in 1915. The new directory

gives full particulars of theaters seating

700 or more, which will be of Interest to pro¬ ducing managers, house managers and vaade-

TlUe managers and agents, also of valns to

the motion picture people. Mr. Cahn la re¬

ceiving very good response from the blank*

BOOKS

Reviews and News

Hie Tlaar Seat Company haa abepberded Into EngUsb two ono-act play* which would bare

commanded wide attention a dozen years ago.

Both are as old as that or older, and altbo one

ia the product of Vemer von Beldenstam, the

Swedish Nobel Prize winner of 1916, and th-

other was first published la Vienna by Hugo von

Hofmannsthal, they bavn qnalltlea In common.

Both are pictorial and poetic. Von Hofmann¬

sthal’s "Death of Titian" la really a poem, an<i

la the poorer play of the two. It was written

In 1892. when the antbor was 18, and was pn

duced in honor of Bockitn, with a pmiog, in

1901. This group of nooologa of the old mas¬

ter's pupils gathered about hie death bed pos¬

sessed tbs ecstatla phrasing and the compar¬

ative almleaanesB of youthfu! genius. Over

all tbera ia a blne-bronse attnospbero which

John Heard baa not completely lost in bN

English version. Moonlit Kamak and its ani¬

mated idols give more startling color to von

Heldenstam’s "Birth of God.” Tho dialog Is

not ineffective, and von Heldenstam punctuates

it adequately with stage effects. Yet Its rather oratorical progress is not entirely convincing.

The answer to the yearning for a god on which

the whole piece turns is a piece of verbal hocus-

pocus; "Nevertheless thou hast a God to honor

from that momeot in which thou belleveat

that he, some day, shall be bom." It is Dun-

sany diluted with Swedenborg. Von Helden-

stam abows In “’The Birth of God” more capac¬

ity for action than von Hofmannsthal, but llko

him be la too fond of col5r and sound. He

neither builds up a character nor ovolvee a

haunting idea—indfspensahle desiderata today

in poetic drama.—iF. E. H.

out well Him tmN play, without seeming ef¬ fort.

It is rather odd that with the music im¬

portant a factor In Dixon’s "Birth of a Na'tioa"

he should not have given It more attention here.

A large orchestra should bo used In the pit,

and the music program carefully aelected to

create a eympatbetic atmosphere with the ideas

and ideals of Civil War days. The music of

that period is so dlstlnctiva that a seTlou<

oversight is apparent in faillag to utili/c it

Proper musical setting would repay the < r

and cost splendidly.

noteworthy achievement of the new season

and should bo viewed by every red-bloo,le<l

"MYRA 8T. MAUER"

Ig Arretted, Charged With Minor Theft ~la She the Peraon Who “Bor¬

rowed” From Profegaionala?

New York, July 30.—Charged with the theft

of fifty cent*, a woman who gave the name of

Mrs. Myra Rtevens and claimed to be related

to the late Justice Van Btiren of the Circuit

Court of Louisiana, was yesterday committed

to Kinga County Hospital for mental oboerva-

tlon by Magistrate Miller in Jamaica Court.

The woman's arrest and the *ub*e<iuent sen¬

tence brought to light eome interesting facts

that were not published in the newspapers.

Accoriling to i>e«ple interviewed today by

The Billboard reporter, tbia woman may be the

same persiin who for years haunted stage dO'>n>

and vletlmized actors and actresses out of varl-

oua aums of money, representing herself to l>e

a professk'oal woman in distress. Kind-hearted

professional people, touched by her story and

evident need, generally gave her sums varying

In amounts.

The woman ia reported to have pi>sed under

three different names, at one time ann<>nn<ing

herself to l>e Mra. Myra 8t. Mauer. at another

time telling people she was Mrs. Dwight

Rockmeyer, and •« still another oc-ation she

laid that her name was Mrs. John T. Stevens.

The latter name i# the one by wbleb she was

known In court, where sbe confessed that she

was the widi>w of a wunltby Msoliattan pro,l-

uce merhaut. 8he aitpeared In court haod- *<>mrly guwne<I.

Many professional people will doubtleo* re¬

call the occaaton on ‘February 10. 1U18. when a

double-column atory wta carried by The Morn¬

ing Telegraph revealing her operations. It

seems that she la said to bare gone to the

atage entrance of tbe KnlrkerlxM-ker, where

Arnold Daly and Virginia llarned were playing

In “Josephine.” and plaintively informed Mla-

llarned that obe was a friend of a dead rela¬

tive of Miss llarned's, and on tbe strength of

this asked for a “loan.” Tbe Telegraph bad

a writer who waa In pretty close touch with theatrical events, and this gentleman nroe

tbs story with fs<-tt that be was able to dig

up concerning the woman's actlvltlet. Bnt

In the following day's Issue The Telegraph

iinbllabed at "Mrs. Rtevena* ” request a story

to tbe effect that she was Dot a "pani>er.''

but that the potaetsed Liberty B<'Od* and considerable pn>perty. She claimed ahe merely

wished to “borrow” the sums wbleb she

was alleged to have requested from pntfesalonal

people. Thli seems to coincide with the story

In Tbe World. Sbe I* said to own considerable

pro{>erty and ba* an Interest la a manufactur¬

ing coneern in this rity.

Tbe story in The Telegratib bad at leaat one

good result. Tbe president of tbe Actors'

Ikind of America. Daniel FYobnan, took note

of tbe affair and Immediately caused to bare blue cards printed on which he warne<l pro¬

fessional people to beware of ai>pllcanti for

charity and requested that such people be re¬

ferred to the Actora’ Fund, where proper

farllittes are available to bamlle these cases

and give them tbe Investigation that they

may warrant. The Actora* Fund, Indeed, had

lent aid to the woman, who first came to it*

offices In 1013, asking for financial assistance.

Hbe claimed at that time to be a resident of

Richmond Hill, L. I. One charitable organiza¬

THTNOS THEATRICAL IN BERLIN

Despite rumors to the contrary things theat¬ rical in the Hun capital are not so bad as the

folk at Spa would have us believe. Herr Leo

Blech has gotten into hot water with the high

brows. Blech is the musical director of the

State Opera House there, and. Incidentally,

conducts "Tristan” and “The Woman Without

a Stain,” the new work of Stransa. But Blech

has fallen Into disgrace because he has composed

a musical comedy, the lightness of which vies

with anything ever yet offered the Berliners In

what is rightly their "off season.'’ And to add

further to it he even conducts this frothy stuff

himself and that In the Schausplelhans, which

has been rented for the season. It la entitled

“The Grass Widow”—Is acclaimed as exceeding¬

ly amusing, and the leading woman is of the

State Opera itself. Such desecration!

WHAT TOLEDO BLADE SAYS:

"K.VRKWKfX snow .\T P.tLACE.—Miss Madge Kinsey was fairly sntothertHl with flowers, and erery menit>er of the Kinsey Komedy Konipaiiy reieleed something of an ovation. Sun>lay night. lJut ■mlilst the slemts of merriment over the mlxups of the siTeamlng farce comedy. 'The Whole Dam Fam¬ ily.' there was a shade of sadness, for It was the farewell iK-rformance by the Kinseys, and flnls was wiltttsi tor tile historic old Palace Theatre. Un Monday the hulldlng was turned over to the wreck¬ ers. and soon the way will t>e cleared for the new Empire Theatre which, u.hder presctit plans, will be completed by August 1. Thus the Kinsr-y Komedy Kompany has closed two successful seasons In To¬ ll do. tlie first In the old .Arcade. The members of the company will ^ke a montli's rest, after which they will go on the road for the summer, as has lieen their custom. *'1 don't kiH>w whether we shall ever come back to Tolrito. hut 1 Ikoie so, for Toledo playgoers have treated us flne.' said Managor Fraiik Miller. As the situation now exists, there Is no place in Toleilo for popular-priced dramatic attractions, hut there are numerous rumors of new bouses to be built, and It may be a way will be opened for tbe return of tlie Kinseys next season."

ALLAX ROGERS, the tenor, who has made .'-•uch a substantial hit and generally good Impression in high- class vaudeville, must have been a choir singer prior to his entry Into this field. His voice leads to the organ tone.s if our ears do not de¬ ceive.

Arthur Denying wa.« with a mln- .«trel company playing the small towns in Ohio some years ago. Just before the car was to be moved the porter would open the end door and holler: "Is all you white folks In,” slan toe door, the engine would hit the car. It would roll for five minutes and stop. The porter would again open the door and this time would say: "You white folks can get out now. we are in the next town.” We don’t believe

New VOWK— /lM£/f/CA5 F0RB105T THEffTER DEVOTED TDVmEVILLE

MaTWc 2:00—Two PerformAnces OAily—8.-00

(Reviewed Monday Matinee, August 2)

It was a most snthuslastlc audience thle afternoon that packed the house by the time the third act was over. A keen example of vaudeville showman¬ ship was put over by the booking of the Harry Carroll act in competition with the Rooney and Bent offering, this trick doubtless being responsible for the standees in large numbers, despite the heat.

The bill seemed all mixed up. The Kinograms did not show In the open¬ ing, and Bert Fltzglbbon appeared as the fourth act in the position pro¬ grammed for Clifford and Willis. Had tbe running been in sequence the latter would have fared far b«‘tter.

On time the orchestra opened with "The Handicap,” by G. Rosey. 2:01—The Four Lamy Brothers took the stage with their trampoline

high-bar casfing display. Three dressed In bespangled tights and the clown attired In a Scottish regalia, they put over their exceptional routine to a great finish. The straight flyer Introduces several new twisters, fashioned after the style of the Clarkonians. The effectiveness of the funny man is lost only when he becomes part of the acrobatic work.

2:08—Frank I’arish an<l Steven I*eru, the versatile vaudevilllans, work In one all thru an<l dance to everything they do. such as riding a unicycle, chair and barrel Jumping, playing concertinas and balancing. They worked as if this was their last show any place on earth, and it was by sheer vitality that they got it over. The team got several bows. These boys are entitled to a better spot, and, had the house been fully seated, they would have cleaned up one of the biggest hits of the bilL

2:20-tEXTRA AUDKD ATTItACTION—Mme. Doree pointed her operalog in five stage scenes, with herself at the piano. The meat of the vocalizations is termed "Operatic Sweethearts,” and included excerpts from "Tales of Hoff¬ man,” “Bidi I'agliaccl." "Rlgoletto.” aria from "La Traviata,” "Romeo and Juliet,” "Carmen.” "Toreador,” "Lucia,” "Eduardo,” "Faust” and "Mar¬ guerite.” The company appeared in excellent ■voice, and included in toto Mme. I>oree. Friscllla I'arker, Clay Inman, Sig. Pompeo, Lorn Aslni, Diana Walters, Allxe Pelletier, Clifford Pollard. Sig. Adamo Adami, Mme. Alline Verdikt, Lillian Ha.N-ward and Miami Campbell. Preceding each offering Mme. Doree gave a straight and humorous word explanatory. This act took bow after bow at the fini-sh. As an encore they sang a medley of popular airs while gathered around the piano. Judging by the reception given this tabloid company of operatic stars it would not be amiss if they were held over for next ■week.

2:48—EXTRA FEATURE!—Bert Fltzglbbon. assisted by Lew Fitzglbbon and a male singer in the box. cleaned up a screaming hit, in one, with a piano and xylophone, on which both played alternately during the greatest conglom¬ eration of laughter, producing “nut stuff.” this comedian has ever put be¬ fore an audience at this house. He is billed as ‘“The Original Daffy Dill,” and he is certainly that, for when all his work Is summed up, he has done really nothing but get laughter and applause.

3:0?»—Pat Rooney and Marion Bent and Company again presented "Rings of Smoke,” minus the Spanish number, and with a new dance number by Marie Kavanagh and Paul Everett. Same old story of a big hit and a speech. This is their last week of the present run.

3:54—Intermission music. "Orlentella,” by Frederick F. Daab, the orchestra leader.

4:01—“Topics of the Day” to "Valse Pathetique." by Onias, got several good laugh responses, and is noticeablv Improving each week.

4:06—ENGAGEMENT EXTRAORDINARY—Carlton Hoagland presented Harry Carroll and Company in “Varieties of 1920,” with Grace E'isher, Harry Miller and Higgins and Bates. It ran in perfect time and time to a wralloplng hit. calling for curtains and a 8i>eech. There seem to be some new' faces in the chorus of lively steppers and good lookers. This act has been here several times iH'fore and completely described on previous occasions, and can stay several more weeks or return, as is its inclination. We are sorry that Mr. Carroll said he was writing a “E-ollies,” thereby making it sound as if his ap¬ pearance here was onlv Incidental to his theatrical achievements.

4:47—ADDED ATTRACTION—Jack Clifford and Miriam Wills, in their rural comedy drama. "At Jasper Junction.” In one and then to two. with si>ecial drop and platform props. This act got a ver>* slow start, and it was Miss Wills’ personality and refined bearing that held them, nearly all of them, in their seats.

E'EATURE DE LUXE!—Maria Lo, the poseuse. In “Art Studies," was billed to close, and Kinograms not yet shown after five.

Exit March. "Venetian Moon." a Remlck number. Programmed for next week: Charles King and Company and Harriet and

Marie McConnell. Tile waits and badly cued orchestra and curtain slowed up the speed of

this day’s running, and the operator ran off the “Topics” as if he was in a hurry to get to something else besides his Job. Elmer Rogers is manager here. He must not he chided for things back stage.—WM. JUDKINS HEWITT.

Keith’s Ck>lonial, N. Y. (Beviewed Thursday, Jnly 29)

VandevUle hasn't aeemed to tire of the in-

evltaUe girla acts featured as "revues” in

tbe programa. At tbs Colonial thla ■week

the "Shoe Shop,” featurlag Mias La Tour,

Foley and George Leonard, Is In tbe feature spot.

We have to admit tbe atory ia better than ordi¬

nary, but it atarta off la very mediocre fashion

and doean't speed up ontU late In the action.

There are aome charming girls in the chorus, an^

they are well dresad.

Just before intermission Billie Shaw and Cktm-

pany had another "revue.” In their act they

even carry a bed, and this A. H. Woods’ touch

whs evidently appreciated, altho due to the

fact that Miss Shaw's enunclatloa was not

distinct many of tbe audience failed to catch

her part of tbe dialog between her and tbe Jazz¬

ing saxophonist. The dancing ia vary good,

especially by Miss Shaw, wbo has a certain blonde

beauty that goes well with tbe various costumes

she has selected.

Opening tbe bill are Anderson and Yvel. They

are clever young people (man and woman), who

perform s<jme difilcult and hair-raising fea*s

on skates. Vaudeville audiences always

enthuse over an apparently daring piece of busl-

ness, and tbe pair haven't omitted anything that

would make It appear they were doomed to cer¬

tain death. Both good looking, they make a

fine appearance and work bard.

Parish and Peru, in their well-known act of

dancing, talking, singing, barrel Jumping, etc.,

get the bouse warmed np. I’nriah seems to be

the harder worker of the two, altho both of them

do plenty and keep things moving.

Bert Fltzgibbon, the original “nut,” strolls

forth on tbe stage In bis nonchalant make-up-less

manner. He has added his brother Leu to the

act. Lon plays the piano well, also tbe xylo¬

phone. But Bert also demonstrates he knows a

thing or two about music and pounds the ivories

and slams rag out of tbs xylophone with an

abandon that gets tbe crowd tied up in knots.

Be has his usual good line of chatter with a

few gags, and If it hadn't been for a song plug

ger in one of the boxes the act would hare been

most enJoyaWe In every way.

Tbe De Wolf Girls have an act and then some.

Apparently they have discovered a gold mine

somewhere, and are spending some of the dig

Rings in clothes. No limit to duds tor these two

One costume after another and the stage drop

are all new and dazzling in their beauty an*

artistic quality.

Whiting and Burt ting some of tbe lates:

songs, including ’’Pvt Got a Bimbo,” "Alimony

Bines,” "What Did She Say” and "Pretty Little

Cinoerella.” Tbe Fantlmo Troope, on late, play

to a bouse that has grown tired and nonrecep-

DENIES COLLINS' STATEMENTS 6t. Louis, Mo.. July 22. 1920.

To the Kdltor: In your Issue of July 24 you printed an

article by Olillle J. Collins In repard to my cipar box trick, in which he takes a preat many thlnps for granted. He has been lis- teninp to others pire their Tendons of my act, as he has never sec-n it as it is. Mr. Collins should not be so egotistical and be more truth¬ ful. He wishes to give the impression that it was bis act, and that he was the owner, width I stamp as false. I have had plenty tif trouble with ^fr. Collins before, and be thinks he has a personal gruilpe against me, or¬ iginating from family affairs, which I do not tare to air, unless he wishes. If be does not stop slandering me behind my liack 1 will force him to acknowledge the real canse, or I will do at* myself, end he knows what the result of that will be. I had considerable eorresiiondelice with him when I was discharged from the army, tiut not to my satisfaction.

Collins claims to be the originator of the Cigar Box Trick, which is not the truth. He was a contortionist and comedian in an acro¬ batic act. It would be better for him to see my act personally before writing articles for the public on what I do or do not do.

The originator of the trick is Ed iJi Moss, who Is no longer in the business. 1 performeil the trick wdth our act, known as Collins, El¬ liott A. Lindsay, and while playing the Academy Theater. Chicago, cecnred Mr. I-a Moss’ permis¬ sion to claim this trick as my own. as I was the only one in the world (to our knowletlge) doing the trick at that time. I also securt'd all performing rights for same, which Collins is not aware of.

As his partner I was In a position to know vrbo was the first to do the trick, and to whom it belonged. I now claim the cigar box trick as mine. I have Improved it und established a good reputation with it and have it protected.

Ciollins evidently desired to injure me in every way possible by printing his permission to others t« jterform this trick. I give notice to Paul I»renr,, or anyone attempting to jier- form It. that I will protect It to the full ex¬ tent of the law. regardless of what Mr. Col¬ lins may tell them. He is evidently jealous of my success since we split partnership.

He is wrong when he says I claim to have been In hYrince a few months over two years and displays his ignorance and again is wrong when he says I wear two Croix He tiuerre med¬ als. which shows bow badly he has been in¬ formed.

I have one Croix He Guerre medal and my service record shows my jiart in the world war.

If Bi'lte J. Collins thinks he has o grievance 1 would murti rather have him see me person¬ ally. whieb so far he has failed to do. altho he has bad the opportunity.

I thank you for your valued space. Tours truly,

GATES ANSWERS MINTEN Creston, la., July 22, 1920.

To the Editor: In your issue of July 10th I was snrprlsi-d

to find a letter signed by J. G. Minten. wlio claims to be a concessioner, making an attack on the veracity of statements made by the iii.inagement of the Gold Medal Shows.

I'nder ordinary circumstances we wotiM igie>re his letter, as we believe that it is 1m- nenth the dignity of any legitimate bnsine«H >rganization to become entangled in any con-

Irover-sy of this kind and the legitimate car¬ nival manager and concessioner are too bu-y during the season attending to their own busi¬ ness to eng.age in "Gpen I^etter" cc.nfests. However, ns Mr. Minten seems to think that if an answer is not forthcoming tbe parties at¬ tacked by him in his letter stand convicted. We wish to make a statement of facts, which should tnd the controversy.

By referring to the ad In question yon will find that there Is no mention of playing the streets of Council Bluffs or of it being the first time that .a carnival has played there in four vears. However, we did play the uptown lot, waii-L is considered the b<“t )•. tbm in the

As regards Creston, m., we find that

thru a mistake in telegraphing the copy of the ad to your p;iper it read; •'Crestou. la., on the streets, first time in four years,” for which we humbly beg Mr. Minlen's pardon. The ad should have read "first time in three years.” We find by the city rws.rds that the last time a carnival |>layed Creston was week of Augnst 28, 1917. And we are not playing Mr. Min- ten's much touted lot. hut on Main and Wal¬ nut streets, right in the heart of the city’s busim-ss district under the auspices of the Volunteer (I’ire Department, wlii<li we think is the best auspices that It is possible to secure in any city of tlie size of Crcst<*n.

We have over fifty concessions that started the season with ns and with but two excep¬ tions they are "with it and for it.” and if Mr. Minton would like to know whether the Gold Medal Shows misrepresent an.vthing to any concessioner at any time all he has to do is to dr'>p a line to an.T of the well satisfied concessioners with the shows or to any other legitimate concessioner who has ever hsd any desliiigt with Manager Billkk or tbe Gold Me<ial Shows.

Trusting that you may find space to publish the above 1 remain Yours very truly.

THE AMATEUR SONG WRITER Lock Haven, Pa., July 20, 1920.

To the Editor:

Will you please publish this letter In your ‘■Open la'tters” department? I have he«‘n trying the_ song game as a writer and I sent a mauu- Bcr'.pt to a well-known publislier, wnose name I will not met tion. This puldisher was well pleased with the cumber and wrote me if I would get my com{sist‘r to make all arrange¬ ments he would publish th- numtier. >!y com- p<«er m.tde the arnngen.ints and sent* tliem to the publisher. This was si.me time in Mareh. I watched tor tbe song but failed to .>ce any- f‘”T «f it on the market. 1 waited until about the first of July, and failing to 8«'o I r hear anything of the song, wrote to the pub¬ lisher asking why he didn’t publish it and re¬ ceived an answer dated July 7 stating that ow¬ ing to the dullness of the seamnn he was not tak;ng any further material, ami that as tbe msrkct is flooded with Dixie songs (mine was that) he conld not give any definite informa¬ tion concerning the number Just now ; further¬ more, stating that if I was desirous of placing tile nnmbcr in anotlier iHili'.isher's hands be would return it upon instructions.

Now what I want to know is if this finn was so pleased with the numU-r why didn't they imblish it or tell me they could n"t use it? The song is a goM jazz nunitier. and I cannot see why the puldisher had it lying on his shelf so long and not use it.

.\iK'ther thing. I have a great eoon shouting nnniber, one of tliose old HeaiNtn numbers, which was given a trial on Coney Island, sung by a eolorixl artist, and it went great, as the comjioser wrote and told me it creati-d a riot. Yet I have sent It to a eoiiple of .\ew York pulOisliers asking them to publish it on a royal- t.v basis, tint the same old n-ply comes back fiMim eai h und every one stating that they have given it their careful consideration, lint an

their catalog is full for the season they regret that they must return it,

I have often tiear^ if you ba've the goods a publisher will aivept your work. Then why is it I must let mine lie urmnd when It eonb] tie made a big numlu-r? The IVa<-on song will create a laugh anywhere and 1 will st.iiid by what I say.' Is there a chance f-r an amateur or is there not? 1 Is-Iong to one of the .**.ine Writers’ Associations, so 1 am sure my work is good or I would n-t have been admitted.

I liope this will fin<I s.-ai e in The BilHsiard, as it is the best frieiui i« ilie s,iiig writer.

tempt to get pnblh'lty for a 'previously un-

hoardi'f JaiKinesc actress, some of whose cloth¬

ing was place<l hy a lake In Central Park. Tlie

police were notified and the lake dnigged for

two da.vs. liitcr, aeeording to the complaint

to Judge Swann. It turned out that this was

an attempt to get the public Interested in a film

which was to appear.

A new law passed by the last Legislature

makes It a misdemeanor to furnish a “false

and untrue statement of a fact” to a n.-wspaper

with the purpose of having it published. Under

this law a man who attempts to get a newspa¬

per to public a Me is guilty, whether he ‘-ans-

mlts It by telephone, in writing, orally , in

any other manner.

There were two auto partiea tliat drove I.IO

niilea to attend the c.oaing featiritlea.

'Ilie uiauiigeuient announced that the Board

of llirectom hae de<-idecl that tbie will be the

laai I'hiintauqua that the preseut Board of Di>

rectora will preaent. A more la on foot to

bare the County Coniiulavionera buy tbla beauty

a|i and dedicate It aa a memorial to the

«.<ddieih. and make it a i>ert>ctual playground,

park and chautau<|iia, to lie owned and con-

rlucted by the people of Caaaelton Ctuinty.

The State iKmigratiou Department had Its

liioviiig picture and educational experta on the

grounda kaiking over the proaiua ta for making

a county educationaul moving picture, to be

alaiwn all over the eountry. A pniiawltion was

ulao tliraahed out whereby the Community I’ro-

uiotioii Aaaix'iatiou of Cliicago will proliably go

to North Dakota and make a atory picture of

tbla wonderful n-aort.

By actual raiunt there were IS.' tiah caught

there on Satiinlay, July 24, weighing from one

to live taiilllda. with moat of them weighing

about two and one-half to three iiounda. The

writer, who on general priuciplea ia t<ai laxy to

hunt and not lazy enough to fish, a<> ia gener¬

ally out out of lioth of theae aiairta, was

inveigled into a fishing ouUit and initiated aa

an boDorary member of the Izaak Walton Club,

of which one Ananias waa once a charter mem-

lier. By actual count we caught aiz big

pickerel that bulked large and totaleil thirteeu

pounds. They were weighed on their own scales.

But the big story is not a fish story. What

we were delighted to see and Lear was the

Ihivies Light Oiiera Comtiany and to etudy the

way It put over the Chautawiua song. Will

tiet all of next year's excess i>roflts against

your income tax that there is no organization

on the Chautauqua platform that can get at

mwL real interekt. enthusiasm and appreciation

out of that I. L. C. A. ««ing. C-'H-A-U-

T-.\.-l'-y-C-.\. as the Davies aggregation does.

We sat hehlod the acenet and watched the animateil faces, the sparkling eyes, the «mll- t!ig. applauding multitude as this company ren-

ered this song. It Was one of the most worth-

ihlle numliers this company presented. It was

entliusiaKtii'ally received and vociferoualy ap¬

plauded. If it bad been done in a vaudeville

theater and we bad been reviewing thia act

we would have said that It #<x,red a tremenduna

hit. It stopped the show. Bat since it is a

■ liautaiHjiia wmg. wTltten by Chautauqua iieople

and sung for Chautauqua patruua. the beat we

can say ia that it was very well done. We

wouki even Pe glad to say the committee re¬

ported tliat tide audience waa delighted, if we

were not afraid that some ivory-domed individ¬

ual wouki rise up and prove that do Chautauqua

iinnmittee is honest or capable enough to re¬

port on such an event. As It Is we will say

tliat It'irry Davies takes our own Chautauqua

song ■ d makes a killing with It.

'I ill evening performance waa given by the

Dat ici C 'em Company, which presented the

comic oiiera, ‘‘Oirofle-Cirofls,*’ by Charles I<ecocq.

This was staged in three acts, with their own

ape<-lal wenery and with the following east of

.Xnswering an inquiry In The Billboard, ask¬

.\lexand<T. in the second century, a reader

writes:

f»n June UiOS, A. !>., the following program was given li.v .Musa, a vSpanish inagiciau. at the cit.v of Alepiio, two days before the city of Ariti<z<ti w.is tiesiegeil by the Christians. He carried all his apparatus uimu his back. In a bag. Drawing forth a long iron 'iiike from tlie hag, he plunged it down liU tlirviat. A puff of simike came from hi- montli. f'dlowed by a I'j'h of lire. Taking a number of lirazen liowls from the sa-k lie blew a spark from his mouth, then the howls gave forth an aromatic smoke. 'I’lien bltiwiiig upon a tiny reed all £he birds of the forest were heard. .Now borrowing a cup he filled it with water, and. giving it to a servant to drink, the water had become sugar 'berhet. Then he started to Juggling with balls until he had eight 'nails Hying in the air. Me then drew from his teeth a st'ire of disks as large as silver coins, followed by reels of cotton ribl*in littering the tioor. Finall.v blowing from his lips a small earthen bowl, into which was pound water and upon cafvsizing the Isiwl the water was not to be seen, lie finished his performance by pulling a live rab¬ bit from one of the smoking bowls. His pay for this performance was a basket of dates and figs.

Musa was also a noted swordsman, and died on the battlefield when Jerusalem fell into the hands of the Christians.

By Clinton Burgess

I’iiuy states that Julius Caesar could employ

at the same time his ears to listen, bia eyes

to read, his hand to write and his mind to dic¬

tate, and, as he was considered some pumpkins

as an orator, and had some original patter of

bis own, often wondered if he’d been nK>re suc¬

cessful as u magician oz a Juggler,

Tlie numerous locals of the National Con¬

jurer*’ -Yssoiiation, Inc., are now appointing

iiicmhers of that assoi-iation to represent them

To those interesteil in spiritualism and

Calie. published in England, "Is Spiritualism

Editorial Comment CAUTIOUS and conservative show¬

men sat up with alacrity when the Pennsylvania Railroad Company’s decision to lay oft 12,000 men was given out, and, despite the fact that one city alone—I’ittsburg—promptly bid for the vvlmle number and rushed agents Elast to snap them up, began to bombard The liilllioanl with letters and telegrams.

What did we think,, they vTinted to know.

We told them one and all that there was little or no significance in the move, nor in the shutdown of the woolen mills, the report of the Comp¬ troller of the Currency, the midsummer business decline, etc.

The crops are good, we are sure of enough coal, transivortation problems are being solved, slowly, it is true, but surcl.v, and foreign trade, as we con- lldenlly predicted, has continued to ex¬ pand. The record for the fi.scal year ended June 30 shows clearly enough that Imports grew to a tremendous total, but the figures failed to show that the process contained factors working for Improvement of the foreign ex¬

changes. The reason was that, while Imi>ortb exi>undt-d rapidly, exi>ort* also grew to a new high r<-cord of $8,111.- 170,000. The t-xjyjrl balance of $2,872,- 000 000 was 30 i>er cent less than in U*10, but WHS, nevertheless, more than four times as great as in any year prior to 1010.

business in genera! Is all right and the demand for tntertainm<'nt will con¬ tinue to be steady and insistent.

Elbert 11. Cary, chairman and chl*-f executive officer of the United Stal'-s Steel Corjkoratlon, who never spoofs, sailed two weeks since for a European varation, voicing belief that the busi¬ ness outlook is the best In six years.

Judge Gary does not stand as a prophet, but he has a habit of telling what he sees and be¬ lieves. And It ia evident, both from his recent Interview and from opinions privately expressed, that he expects prosperous times to go hand In band with prices lower than those current.

Censorship and the Kbg’s Fool (The Freeman)

Is there not something significant about the fact that censorship of books and plays, as practiced in English-speaking countries, had its origin In the king’s fool? The office of ma.«ter of the revels evolved from the function of the jester, and, under Elizabeth, this master became the dramatic censor. Finally, the abuses that arose prompted the demand for statutory regulation. E-arly in the eighteenth century Lord Chester¬ field said: “If the players are to be punished, let it be by the laws of their country, and not by the will of an irresponsible despot." Since that time, in England, plays require a license from the Lord Chamber- lain, or, at least, a play may not be produced if that person makes ob¬ jection within seven days of the submission of a manuscript. The vagaries of tlie modern I7nglish censorship are Illustrated by the banning of such plays as Oscar Wilde’s “Salome” and Maeterlinck’s “Monna Vanna,” on the one hand, and Gilbert and Sullivan's “Mikado" on the otlier. Laurence Housman, well known to Freeman readers, some ten years ago wrote a i>lay dealing with George IV, which was accorded the iionor of being forbidden. There is no record of plays about George V. but newspaper readers may remember that the British Government found other means than the Lord Chamberlain’s office In dealing with fiction by one Mylius regarding that monarch. In America we are not even abreast of the P:nglHnd of 1545, for we still piously refuse to concede the ex¬ istence of a censorship while we cheerfully submit to the unregulated exercise and abuse of the iKJwer that accompanies it. The jester of 1545 functions today in these United States as a police lieutenant or a post- office inspector.—JOURNEYMAN.

The wealth of summer music in New

York has become amazing, to say

the least, and this, in the main. Is at¬ tributed to prohibition, which has proven itself a boon to every branch of the amusement profession, both outdoor and indoor.

Furthermore, the “Summer Garden” today shows a great improvement over the ’‘Summer Garden” when John Bar¬ leycorn reignevl supreme. As The New Y’ork Times points out:

“ ‘Summer Garden* does not mean what it once did, but it means some¬ thing more. Two series of open-air concerts are in full swing and are nightly thronged by people to whom beer and light wines are only a mem¬ ory or possibly an inspiration.

SUCH IS FAME IN ADVERTISING As Applied By P. T. Barnum, the Yankee Showman Who Put the ‘^Ad in Advertising

By ELMER J. WALTERS

IN* thf'so (lays of advanr(-«l a<l-

v»'rtlsinK methods anil with the ex¬ tensive |>ui)iicity promotions evi¬ dent on e V e r y hand, many of the old school princi- l>les can not be recommended for everyday usage to every showman of this generation, but, nevertheless, (juite a few ad¬ vertising “stunts” incorporated by Anterica’* great¬ est showman and past master in ad¬ vertising—his was

a rare skiil and an inventive genius- make inter¬ esting data to anyone who can recall some of the bright i<leas used by tlie former king of curio col- le< tors in his determination to invite public atten¬

tion. The late 1’. T. I'.arnum’s experiences as iiro-

prietor and manager of the old American Museum in New York for many years jirior to his successful “white tot>” career cover many chaitters of bril- iiani tlioiights, which, properly adjusted, may again I'e of servKM" to some men t«*day.

Kegardle.ss of what has oft been repeated con¬ cerning tlie late showman’s methods in advertis¬ ing. his one hip Iniast s«*ems to have been that “no one could visit his museum and go away without f< eliiig they had received the full worth of their money.” This point is of the greatest imi>ortance toilay, for on every tiand we hear of exorbitant charges and -

inf» rior goods. .. !<ensation.al as were his many ndver- -

tisinp caiiipaigns, Mr. Itarnum always heliev»*d in giving a “liig show”—value was his hobby

with a Japan-made mermaid, Mr. Harnum would not either have succeeded l)ut for his unusual ac¬ tivity and liberal application of printer’s ink.

From the writer’s personal contact with the ad¬ vertising world, Mr. IJarnum’s arguments of long sigo would seem to fit today, in a commercial way, the same as they applied to his business during the earliest years of his prosperity. Mr. liarnuni’s strongest point with reference to the science of ad¬ vertising refers specifically to “Constant Applica¬ tion.” I’. T. liarnum, during his period of com¬ mercial and real estate activities—he was responsi¬ ble in a large measure for the early upbuilding of Hridgeport, Conn., and the financing of a large New Kngland clock factory—believed one’s wares could best be sold by nursing the reader thru a certain period of advertising activity. The world’s great¬ est showman, so-called, maintained that advertis¬ ing thru the medium of the press could only bring results by perpetual application, claiming that a great percentage of readers overl(K>k an advertise¬ ment on the first day of its appearance, give it only

of the cornerstones of our civilization and upon which art frequently depends, success or failure in business, advertising, too, is a mighty pillar that supports a business enterprise. Indeed advertis¬ ing may be said to be the concrete foundation that supplies the demand for correspondence forces. For first one reads an advertisement and then he corresponds concerning it.

TirE ballyhoo band, remembered as an outdoor feature of the Dime Museum, was, according

to reports, conceived by the astute .showman during his mu.seum heyday. Mr. Barnum announced “Free Music for the Million,” and people flocked to his main entrance to get “something for nothing.” He t(*ok pains to select and maintain the poorest band he could put together—one whose discordant notes would drive the crowd into his museum. The standard of his “free concerts.” as it is recalled, having been applied to other similar institutions, never seemed to rise. Barnum is said to have argued that when i)eople expected “something for nothing” they were sure to be cheated, and usually deserved to be, and, no doubt, some of his patrons who expected to hear a select concert, gratis, w'ere disappointed, but he took special care to give full

value on the inside. One of the many clever bits of smooth adver¬

tising the American amu.sement impresario had pleaded guilty to was building opposition for his pet institution merely to show probable opponents his strength as a fighter. After killing off opposi-* tion existing in the operation of the old Peale’s Museum, he later is said to have backed his finan¬ cially embarrassed opponent to secretly combat

him. The advertising Barnum’s .\merioan Museum re¬

ceived during this “frameup,” it has been claimed, more than offset what the ex- periment cost him. Later, when the curios and contents of Peale’s Museum

purchased by Mr. Barnum—prac- tically for a song—he was able to hill :he American Museum as a “Double At¬ traction” and “Two Museums in One”

^ without extra charge. ^ , . Should the appetite of the fickle

public crave that the pendulum of time turn back to some former ideas that may he recooked a la Barnuna, re* dressed and served anew to future gen- eratlons, while it may not be the psy- chological moment for gnomes, per- haps it. will again be the age in which to exploit giants.

A story now moldy with age has gone the rounds of two giants who were exhibiting side by side on the same platform at the .\merican Museum. Kach man was jealous of the other, both desiring the lion’s share of public attention. Finally this envy provoked a quarrel that terminated in a chal- lenge to a duel, one seizing a toma- hawk and the other an ancient sword. These were curios taken from their fastenings. The two angry specimens

- ' of extraordinary hulk now rejiaired to an ohscurt' corner of the curio hall to

settle their supremacy. When Mr. Barnum was summoned by an employee he is quoted as having shouted; “Here, here! 1 don’t mind you Goliaths fighting out your grudge against each other, but both of you are under contract to me. Advertising is the life of this establishment, and if you warriors must arrange a combat to the death such an event should be duly heralded for the good of my busi¬ ness. I want time to advertise.” ^

The humorous side of the situation and the showman’s tact soon struck the two would-be con¬ testants, and they quickly buried their differences.

It will be seen how ever and alert was the mu¬ seum boss to the need of constant application in advertising.

ELMER J. WALTERS

and with this end In ^ ^ y

view he was constantly in search of novelties — something to advertise. Year after year he sought genuine curiosities, regardless of cost, wherever he could fltul them in Europe or

That it was the world’s way then, as it is now. to court favor and to excite curiosity via the advertising route, is certain, for Mr. Barnum never took his fiixer off the advertising trigger. He became a sure advertising shot, rarely ever mi.ssing the bull’s-eye. The pub- lie was uptiermost in his mind. Ho studied to give his (latrons a big sup- ply. In creating only words of iiralse for the magnitude of his offerings, tho tile genuimmess of some of his f(>aturea ; ' i Was sonu't lines «iuestioned. he had the ~ jig ixrsonal satisfaction of frequ(‘ntl.%’ T.- bearing exclamations of wonder regard- ■ lag the size of his exhibitions.

Des|dt«‘ his vigorous i>r»'ss and imster campaigns, he knew value was the best medium of advertising he could have, and for which he coul.l a.'b.rd to pay.

•Now being fully aware that a visit to his curio balls and other attractions was w< II worth to any¬ one their time and the admittance fee he asked. .Mr. Lainum did not hesitate to blow his horn to advise tlie public of tlu'lr presence. His on<* aim a|»i>ears to liave bi>en to make nnm and women think and

and talk and wonder, and, as a natural result, paiionize his offerings.

a passing glance on the second day, read it me- chanicall.v on the third, digest it on the fourth day, and pt'rhaps may decide to make a purchase on Jhe fifth or sixth day that their eye might meet the ad.

\Ye have known of many advertisers to place an ad either in a daily or a weekly publication and Ix'come discouraged because the first issue in which the ad appeared had failed to produce the re¬ sults expected. The fatal error seems to be made daily, even in the placing of Want .-Xds. One in¬ sertion has ofttlmes Ix'en InsutTlcient to yield re¬ sults. while a second would meet all requirements.

The object of advertising is to attract the at¬ tention of the public to salable commodities or to services and to create .a demand for these. It is not any more reasonable to expect satisfactory re¬ sults from ONE insertion of an ad than it is rea¬ sonable to expect one dose of medicine to break up a neglected cold. Like correspondence, which is one

I be showman after he had been accost<‘d by a hun- l-'i’y man seeking a |H>siiion at almost any salary, riirowtng to th«‘ unemploy«-d individual a quarter pf a dollar (one admission to his temtile of won- deis) and instructing him to get a meal and then f'luin. Mr. Barnum hit u|>on the “brick Idea” that ba.'^ lit en heralded .about the counti y, merely to help out the inner man of u fellow creature less fortu- nate than himself.

Willie it, iterhaps, is not feasible today to at¬ tract public excitement and world-wldo attention

A GIANT story brought over from England is to

the effect that while Mr. Barnum visited War¬

wick during the races held there he also paid a visit to the various show tents pitched near the course. Tlie wily Yankee was attracted to a pair of giantesses, twins, apparently of unusual height. If they were legitimate he desired to negotiate for their appearance in America. Suddenly he is

INSIST ON GEHING IT WHEN YOU ASK FOR THE BILLBOARD AT THE NEWS STANDS

N’f'.irly all the small fry theatrl('al papers have pone to 20 cents. As a result the news dealers are pushinn them.

The de.aler makes five cents clear on the sale of a twenty-rent paper. He hardly makes three rents (on account of the heavier weipht and

consequently hlpher postape he has to pay) on The Hillboard.' Y’ou can not blame him for preferriiip to sell the former.

Hut he is not always sold out when he claims to he, and, rather than miss a sale, he will dip you up a copy of Hillyhoy, so your cue Is to in¬

sist firmly on the paper you ask for and accept nothing in its place until you have tried at least a second dealer.

YVe have made a pame fight to hold the price of The Hlllboard at fifteen cents.

It has not been easy to do.

As a matter of fact It has been very costly.

Also it looked almost silly for a while—especially about a month since — for. with paper still advancing, a raise in price seemed inevitatde. in wliich event all of our efforts and the losses we took we should have In¬ curred in vain, and we would have gotten no credit for holding off as long as we did.

Hut it begins to look now aH If wo will pet away with it.

The price of paper has not yet commenced to full, but there arc strong indications that the peak has been reaclied.

If it has there will be no advance in Tlie HilllKyard price per copy.

HUT YOU HAVK TO STAND HAT WITH THK NKWSS*r.\N'I) MAN. IF YOU ALLOW HLM TO SI.IH YOU A TWKNTY-UKNTKH INSTEAD OF THE HILLHOAKD WE HOTH LOSE TO THE I’KOF- ITEEHS.

GEORGE BROADHURST PresenU The Blackface Comedy Novel* v

COME SEVEN By OCTAVTTS HOT COHEB

(KoitndiHi nn Afr. Cohen’s Plnriea of Negro Life Pttblished in The Pattirdar Ereninp

I’ov* and with Colored Charanfers Onl.r Portrft.red.) Pla.r Staged K. .MRS.

Ml.T IAN TRIMBLE BRADLEY.

••Cntne Siren" is interenting aa an experiment In negro eomed.v minus anv relief fitmishml h.v white iharaefers Played h.v eolnred ai fors it might take on an appearapie of reality. A east made t,p of eiperiemed hlackfaee variety performer'* might ^ bet¬ ter than the eotnpany at the Bruadliiirst. whose dialects and mannerisms may he Y iddish, Irish or .Aleutian Indian, hut witli two exceptions are rertainl.v not Ethiopian. It eouid lint he wor-e. Eallure to a-'Ume even a imssahle imitation of the real negro peeii- llarities tif spw'eeb is not the only shortisiming the east obviously displays. There is no penetration of the i liarai lers thimselves. Few aetors are capable of it In the variety theater and fewer still in the legitimate ranks now that Willis P. Sweatnam h.is re¬ tired and John P. Wade has gone into pictures. 'Hie broad comedy touches are eom- paratlvely ea-y to stn-ure, but the manifold suhtleties <»f the negro character are a closed book t.; white actors. It is not that the company at the Broadhurst is not capable. It Is, hut the trick Itself cannot be done.

It Is doubtful if in the play itself there Is sufficient body to sustain an evening’s entertainment. More than two hours of constant negroisms is a pretty stiT dose for an audience to swallow, a white audience at any rate. While there is unnuestionably a virgin field for dramatic exidoitation in the conditions and aspirations of the negro race In .Amerii-a, It 1“ onlv In the serious field that a play entirely made up of black char¬ acters «an lie successful. .V ctmieily in which white actors are exclusively engaged is hopeless if there Is no background of seriousness for the humorous elements to play against Iii "fome Seven" there is nothing hut lightness, because whatever seriousness there would actuallv Iw in the situations of the play to a real negro the inahilify of the while players to get "under the 'kin” of the iiart makes it negative. The result is one long laugh without time to rest one s jawbones in between.

Mr » ohen has made capital use of a funny situation and he> has crammed it full of g’.nuiiiily amii'ing dialog, tot that is all. Boiled down to the running time of an oidtinte afleri*iei'»* it W'tcld be a riot.

Lucille laiVerne Is the nearest approach to reality a« Elzevir Nesbit. Eleanor Afon- tell as Mrs. Chew, the wife of the oleaginous I.awyer Chew, has little to do, but what she does is stattii<si with the mark of genuineness. Arthur .Aylsworth as T'rias Nesbit, the imluiky isoso-mt of a i'ussion for the frolicsome "hones" and a wife with a dia¬ mond ring, is funny at times, hut lacks sincerity. Earle Foxe as the nimble-minded fashion plate. Florian Slappiy. Is altogether eveellent and gives the most sustained and elear cut < liarai terizution in the play. Gail Kane, "high yallah'* niakimp and all, is mightily attractive and Illustrates the belief in certain midnight blonde circles that "a brown skinned gul would make a bull dog break his chain.” What Vistar Goins Would do at a negro picnic if “he looked half as allurin’ aa Miss Kane is nothing at all but break all reivrds for semling (latrons to the morgue.

P. S. There is a -eat in the Bnsufliurst Theater which has a large, round, rolling cobble stone for a cushion, which maketh not for comfort or enjoyment.

1’. P. S. Young men escorting ladies should not be iwnnitti'd to go out between the acts and come ba>k carrying icspicr-niache containers of ice cream soda, which they throw under the scat when the ismtents have lieeu noisily devoiirist.

P P P S. Washing-up time l>ack stage at the Broadhurst should he preserved to posterity by the indestructible film as an example of the trials of an actor’s life.— I’-ATTERSOX JAMES.

MR. J. J. SHUBERT

Tn the nights when New York whh wet the fashion arose of giving entertainments for those who had no place to go after the saliMu.s and cafes ehwieil. (iriginally tlio

shows wen liiiilt along lines lo suit the mental capacity of people whose i>en‘eptions

were slightly dulled liy want of sle<-p and whose tastes were highly exhilaratisl by won'e-

thing else, which came In bottles and was nut Z'silak. These tuulnight diversions were

fai-etlotisly lalsdcd ’’revues” ts-esuse that word lisikisl a little smarter than ’’review"

and N'ing French presupjstsed something of Parisian night life gaiety. Tlie shows con- sistiid uf gills, noise, girls, vulgarity, girls, noise, noise, noise and girls! I'nder aleo- liolic stimulation the defieiencies of the entertainment passi-d oliscured In the winey

fog. No one was very bright, except the lights, and things went with a whisip. It

was all high priced bunk, a very bad imitation of continental wick*-dnesa and aadly

Btupid entirtaliiment.

Now that New Y'ork is dry. In one or two Isolated place* at least, tlie midnifdbt

shows still iMTslst. hut with a difference. Whereas in the gissl old dais no one thought niiich about the show or the size of the check or anything except '’luaipla,” the Eight¬

eenth Atuendnieut has made all-night audiences more soIht. and hence more critical. Everrone seems to realise that fact except the pnslueers. They still remain under the

impresslfin that i>e<ii>Ie who do not know enough to go to Is-d at anything hut nighr

watchmen’s hours have not enough wit to resent what is In-lng shov«-d off on them as amusenieiit at eonsiderahly tilted, prices. They still rely on the noise, girls, etc., and

vulgarity, with the loud iK-dal nailed down on the latter.

Since "The Yliduight Bounders” ©i>ened at the Century Roof there has been a

gnat to do over its lavishuess, gorgeousness, novelty, beaut.v, etc., etc., etc. Lavish

it is in places, but for all the other thinga It Is not. Someone Is announced as the

utitlior of the hiHik, someone else as the maker of the lyrics and all the other rcsponslhles

for the *itlier irresi>onslhilities are named. This announcement Is the only trace of

humor eonne<-ted with "The Ylidnight Bounders." The tssik is by Joe Miller, Burdisk

Bitt*Ts .Annual Almanac and the Cave Dwebera* Treasury of Stone Tleaded Comi-dy.

There are any nunilwr of antl<iuat<-d bits from long deceas«*d burlesque shows, most prominent of wihich Is the cafe si-ene on the Bue de la I’aix, with Harry Kelly and Lew

Ileum wandering drearily thru the "btsik." .A fiercely decadent "novelty" called "A

Fantastic Conception of Tweuty-Four nmirs.” whh-h is a riot of feather plumes, is the

grand finale of the first section. It would please the late Oscar YVilde after his sojotim

in Beading Caol. There is a slimine«s trailing viver the entire mess, which culminates In a s«ing and

dance, "Shimmy Nods," done hy Tot Qnalt«Ts nml sev*Tal sliimmyless Indies. Tlil« niini-

la-r. whleh (Uiiiiut he adisjuately described because of its untrainmel'sl «’<>arseness, kti>|>*>

the show. TiKTe are two real attractions on the Cciiinry Boof. One is the ex'iulsltoly lov<dy

view from tlie oiM-n-air promeiiude of Central Park after iniiliiight, and the other is the

fact that the show ends at two o'clock in the uiortilng.—I’.ATTKHSON J.AMES.

To the many other crimp mysteries of New York there was ad<l<*d a week ago a

rlr. iiiii-tantial aei-oiint of the apparent suicide in the large lake in Central Park of a

Jaiuinese wi.iiinn. who had reglsterisl at the Pennsylvania Hotel. .A hlaek silk hand-bag

anti a l.lack hat presiimml to have Ivebinged to the woman were hrinight to the .Arsenal

Slathin h.v an imiividiiul. who represented that he 'niid found them on the shore of the

lake ‘after hearing a splash in the water.’ On this eviden<-e |M)li<-e in a r.iwboat dragged

th.. lake more than twenty-fotir hours without finding the Isal.v. Now the imblie is

duly iclvisi-d that the adventures of the young woman may be seen in a photoplay at a Broadway theater.

••p<-rhaps this is up-to-date press.agent piihlleity, hut to most people It will appear

to deserve a harsher oharavterizatlon. The .American piihlie, of eotirse, submits iheer-

fiilly to be hiimbuggcsl. But a hoax at the e\|Mnse of its s.'mpathies ami involving the

aitivlties of the isdit-e in a fake mystery at a time when detective skill la batlled by serious crime is a ilifferent matter.

“Promoters of niovp. tu-n-ations neeil to he reminded that good taste no less than a

respect f<.r luiblic order demands the i-tirhing of raw publicity metho<|s of this nature.

Ibe manxgers bold their ar.dieiioea to a strict line of gisal Iwhavior and they should

reilprisate with a little raon- regard for public jiropricty on tbeir own part.”

Distnet .Attorney Swann Is rather more beetle in his expression than the editorial

writer on Th<- New York AVorld, who is resiamsihle for the atHive iiuotation. Mr. Swann is <iiiote<l as saying:

“The isilhv should he prote<-te<l against such t>ersons. Their time is too valnahle to

he wasted In this wa.v, and the whole coinmnnity which they are paid to protect should

he Justly indignant at sti< h press agent nietb<Hls. 1 am anxious, however, to aid thia

pres* agent a little. I want to give him a little more puWieity than he bargained for

— 1 want to put h.m in a cell, and let him see that in big beudlines, it he cures to read

it from inside.”

THE RIGHT TO STRIKE (The Nation)

Are GoTomment employee*, wbowe petltionw have gone itnheeded by tbowe trhowe bnwl-

re*» It wnw to attend to them, to be denied, tinder pain of being eh.irged with dis- loyaity, the right of organized, forcible ppdewt, whieh brlcklwyerw, earpenten* and elixmliermHidK claim and eierclwe as a prerogative of eitlzenshlp? And if Government employee* strike, and the normal life of a community aiilfers in eonseijuence, are the

workers to be aoctiaed of treason when it is the Government which 1* really at fault?

We hope tliat organized labor will accept with spirit the challenge of “take It or leave It,” which the Repiibileans have thrown down, not only because we believe that tlie Republican doctrine ought to be repudiated as mlschlevhus, but also because the fiuestlon is likely to become in the near future one of serious Importance. With the

atping trend toward the nationalization or the thorogoing Government control of railways, mines and other great industries or natural resources, the time is not distant when the number of Government employees in thia country may be very greatly increased. Wliat is quite clear now is that neither railway men nor miners—to take two llluatra- thins only—are likely to give up a weafion which has stood them in good stead In the past merely beeauae the Government becomea their employer. Tlirr will assuredly strike if they want to, whatever the Government may think about It, and that which is going

to happen anyway may aa well be accepted in advanee. It will be the part or wisdom for the Government, which la notoriously lax when questions of ordinary, everyday Jus¬ tice are concerned, to insure. In the management of its piihllc service*, an honest method of demotratle control, to set Its house in order and provide some suitable machinery for

the voluntary settlement of disputes before labor puts Government to the teat.

FIXING THE REASON CommentinE «>n the collapse <.f the Intcrolmrch World Movement, "Tlie Xiti-'n” Jias

its own explanation, one phase of xvhich follows:

"More ImiKirtant, there was little contact between the big business men P in '^h'" rellBious exei'utlves, enKiiieerinK the Interehurch, and the rank and file. It w'ls n

nn-venient of iniposinR front, but xvith a needed eonstitueney that had not been eoi.sulted. So the hiatus widened between the ‘big’ ideas of the ‘big’ men and the humbler do- nomiiiationul leaders and church people. All that the mass could sense was some new

and vaRiie ohjei-t, toward xvliich they were to be speeded up. The people never backed

the Intereliiinh, for they never attended its eoiinclls and never knew its purpose. "John D. Itoi'kifellin', Jr., once made a classic speech on Christian unity. Some such

V'plen! idea as his coalesced with the taiiKible Methodist triumph in money-raising, iidibsl to itself the ecclesiastical maehinery of tlie higher executives. e<>nx-erted big busi¬ ness men, and annexted famous fund-raisers. The amalgam resulted in puhlioity as

amazing us lls'se early Ifritish advertisements with xvliich Sir. Itarnum plastered the

countryside and dP've away the English from attendance. Tliere is a fundamental docency in our people, too, wlilch has silently resented selling Jesus in the language of

the I'irctis. On the day xvhen John K. Mott gis-s to prison for defending Dchs because of tlieir common humanit.v—on that day a Christian unity will be begun.

"The lesson of the Iiiterihurch is that a soviet cannot be imposed by a tiny minority

at the top. Neither I^-iiin m'r John P. Rockefeller, Jr., ean as yet iireate a new eisinomlc instrument of government in these United States; not even a Cbristian soviet

in tH'cleslastical government.”

MAGIC AND MAGICIANS (Continued from page 37)

telle has something really new and a laiigU- proyoker at stags.

Robert 11. ElRoy has at last perfected his

beautiful mechanical bntterfly, which, after its

production, will fly to the d.-me of a theater,

then turn and slowly fly back, moving grai eftil-

ly thruout the performance. This butterlly has

wings of the finest silk, the wings measuring

28 inches from Up to tip and the body, coiii-

paratively small, (Mntains the mechanism. El¬

Roy has been experimenting on this butterlly

effect for the past eight or ten years, and at

last success has crowned his efforts.

Mystics, according to Webster’s unabridged,

are: “A class of pdlglons people who profess

to have direct Intercourse with the Spirit of

God in calm and holy contemplation, an.i to

receive such inipi-esslons as are true religious

knowledge.” Ho, unless a magician be a mem¬

ber of this religious order, no magician can

proiierly call himself a "mystic.”

Harry ll<>udinl, the King of Handcuff Kings,

and the king-pin of all pscape artists, will be

the feature entertainer on the police field days

at Eheeiisliead Bay Speedway from ^^aturdaiT. August 21. to Saturday, August 2H, for the

benefit of ’the New York Police Hospital Fund.

He will make liis seusatkinul ‘cstNipes in full

view of tlie thousands assembled.

It is said 'I'exas xviuild make 210 States of

the .size of Itliode Island. Now. let us suppose

that giant State was cut up and ni.ade Into “lit¬

tle Rhodles.’’ and that E.Yt'H of these had

JX'.ST ONE live magical organization like Hie

Rhode Island *SocIely of Magicians, which, as

yon know, is L<sal No. 2, of the National Con¬

jurers’ Asso iatiou, Inc., and only ONE of this

great Assoeialion's enterprising locals, do you

think, if tliis should haiqiL'ii, magic would nee<l

any boost THEN? Say, Texas, please wake

up!!! You’ve got a big buueU of ^-lever men—

why not organize them?

Warden EIKoy, of the N'. C. A., is not only

a great novelty artist, but can handle the

weirdest instruments imaginable. For Instance;

At a recent entertainment he demonstrated’how¬

to handle a one-string Chinese fiddle, how to

play on strips of broken glasa and how to pro¬

duce excellent music from an ordinary hand

eaw. He ie Indeed the “King of Novelty Art¬ ists.’*

LYCEUM AND CHAUTAUQUA NOTES

(Continued from page 3(I>

Ing East. Three thousand people beard Mm ac

Wilmette Talley.

Mrs. Helen Beard, for years a chautatuiiia lecturer and the widow of the late Frank Beard, father of the present generation of chalk talkers, died at Chautamiua, N. Y. Her body

was buried at the family home In Painesville, Ohio.

Fred Dale Wood is chairman of the I. L. O. A. Program Committee. That is for the convention program. What should tlie (xinventlon discuss? Here is one question that should be thoixdy dis¬

cussed: ".Should Talent Organize?” Will we discuss It? Wla> says yes?

Alturas, Cal., raised .81.300 on the last day

of their Chautauqua for permanent playgrounds.

At Y'rcka the City Council immetliately took

action after tlie Junior Playgtxiund work had

been demonstrated, and tlie eity dads bought a

playground site, 'riiit* is gH>d work.

Ikj you know that the Cndmean •Chautauqua

Bureau has twice as many libautauquas this

summer as Vawter, and approximately as man.v

as ElUson YVhite have in the L'niteil States?

Their total volume of Imsiness is exi'eedetl ’by

only /our or five organizations in this country.

Tlie following news Item from the Laurel (Mont.) Outlook, tells a great story: "Over

one-half of tlie signaturi-s on the guarantee are progressive farmers of this vb-inlty, who have demonstrated that tliey desire this class of en¬ tertainment, BO it is up to the business men of this city to lend every possible energy In mak¬

ing the 1020 Chautauqua a success.’’

Get ready for a real suri'rlse, all ye who

have dabbled in music siiSicient to get a letter

from M. Witmark & Hons and who have an¬

swered by saying. "My Dear Mr. Jo'-epli,”

Don’t be suri'risetl when you find that your

corrtxspondent has been a business wonutn. You

can tell that as soon as you see her. Y'es. %;ie

•Y chaiitaiHiua leeturer i.s said to have ex¬

claimed as he switchtHl his disconrse from the

'crime of the profiteers, wlio charge a dollar

and a half for a half sole, to the beauty of the

idea that the b'xnil is Immortal: “! l<x>ked at

‘Beautiful as you are you will be destroyed,

of the statuf-*aiHe lailiei. and discnvereil that

slie was standing on a block of wimhI six inches

thick. The fair giantess not being accustomed

to such undue ruiiiiliarlty by a spectator, the

arhuwuian was given a nvue-too-gcutle slap

across his head.

One of the most ludicrous and yet effective

advertising schemes said to have been u>e<l for

the tienefit of the American Museum was the

transiiortation of an elephant to Ur’dgeiMjrt to

draw a plow on Barnum's estate. The keeper

was supplied with time tables of train move¬

ments, with instnictions to be sure to work the

elephant industriously as trains moveil by the

estate. It wus,sakl so many agricultural secre¬

taries from different sections, reading of the

innovation In the press, appliisl to Mr. Barnum

for data on his experiment that the showman

found it necessary to have a form letter printed,

“letting farmers in on the secret,” saying:

“The only way an elepluint was a success at

farming was for its owner to conduct a mu¬ seum,**

Again tc illustrate the great need of delibera¬

tion and not too sanguine hopes for “precious

thoughts in the art of advertising,*’ an Ad Club

luncheon tale might here be related with “real¬

ization** for its backgtvMind. And a story which

truly bears out Mr. Barnum's early views on

constant application in advertising.

In the writer’s early years he found occai>a-

High, 3,*S .H. DeurlHim street, (Chicago. Tbo lyeeum and Chautauqua committeemen. Study

lUlIbonrd will b« glad to mall any committee- that repm. It ia frco for tho asking, man a completo 84-pago iMoklct, In which It

my duty to exploit my attraction by means of

using billboards and the press. -Many small

towns were included in my route and regardless

of the number of date lines ii.sed in bill[smting

to anmiunce the day and date, the rural ob¬

server would, alter familiarizing -himself with

the name of the k1s>w, invariably ask: “When

is this show cornin'?”

Tlie regulation onc-shect theatrical poster is

28x42 inches, and the customary date lines

used with oiic-night-st.-ind attractions at ^hat

period were rarely larger than a one-sheet.

One day the writer observed a circus billlKkinl which contained a four-sheet date. Theatrical

litliography averaged seven cents per sheet, type

work—such us a four-sheet date, sold at 2'i cents.

Tire circus catered to the masses, as dhl my

attraction, and by adopting the cinus metho<i

of announcing the “day and date” I he<-ame en¬

thused over the -saving of money in printing

besides the “impression” in large type the

‘ date” would have on prospe< tlve theatergviers.

In Kalamawsv, MIeli., the first assortment of

four-shet't dates was received. After the bill¬ poster bung a stand for my perusal we both

sauntered to the edge of the sidewalk. The

four-sheet date read: “Monda.v, Aug|ist 2,’>”—

the figure, "25,” covered two sheets.

“Will they ask us when the sliow is eoin-

jng witli that date In front of them?” I in¬

quired of the billjHtster.

“They shotddn't,” he returned.

At this |>oint a father and his son happene-l

by. The youngster was naturally attracte<I

by the coloring and the subject matter of the

display. “.Vnother show cornin’, pap,” he said,

as they stopiH'd. “Yep.” returned the father,

glancing at the four-sheet date which the bill-

is)ster and I thought so attractive, “a 26-cent

show. When Is this show goin’ to be here?”

.4fter recovering our composure the billposter

suggested that I double the four-sheet date

and make It an eight-sheet. Similar Illustrations of the public’s careless¬

ness In reading at a glance are evidencol every

day. Down South, when a certain new circus

entered territory, for years covered by an or¬

ganization more familiarly known to the natives

of that section, advertised “Greatest Show on

Eartlt,” September 1, two darkies, with the

older circus in mind, read the i»osters thus: “Greatest Show on Earth, Cept one (Sept. 1).

das John Robinson’s.”

We believe street car advertising anil bill¬

board displays spasmodically advertising any

given article have much the same effect upon

the general public as did the constant applica¬

tion system of tlie John Robinson Circus have

on the darkles, who ref use*! ti> recognize a sub¬ stitute of much greater proportion and conse-

que-ntly one giving more value.

We have known street car advertising con¬

cerns to turn down contracts for large sums

of money for short period advertising, con¬

tracts upon which solicitors had worked In¬ dustriously for weeks, the Street Car Advertis¬

ing Company manager claiming advertisers could

expect no direct remits from short-time pub¬

licity.

By relating a recent experience of one of otrr

principal railroads in booming for two years

a certain excursion tonr, spending thousands of

dollars to inform the public of the sights to be

seen in certain section of our gloricms scenic

country and meeting with fallnre for their

trouble and outlay during the two years of their

progressive advertising campaign, only to be

rushed beyond reason during the third year,

illustrates in a fair measure the Judgment dis-

playeil by advertising firms In desiring to

promote long-time omtracts.

Small «s>mmnnitie8 have developed into

thriving cities thru consistent advertising.

Wars are advertised. Big loan drives are made

X>ossible only by publicity. The most widely

advertised Insect powder unihMibtedly Las the

largest number of calls. The man in business who treats advertising

lightly, feeling that his oommodlty will stand

on its merits witliout daily soliciting the pub¬

lic’s attention thni some advertising medium

or other. Is an individual who rarely if ever

grows In business.

’ The Motion Picture Industry has shown to the

conservative legitimate sliowman the results of

"Barnum methods.” The Motion Picture has

taken leaps and bounds in the Industrial world

and can be found on the curb or exchange. Mo¬

tion Picture advertising experts have done what

Bantam advtwated, what ho practiced, as well

as prencheil—they have made men and women

think and talk and wonder with substantial

success as their natural reward.

Omstant application enters into out daily

lives as It does In advertising. Efflclenoy and

success is brought about by constant applica¬

tion to one’s duties. .\ New York theatrical

ifirm once impressed the writer with the fol¬

lowing sign hanging on Its wallt ‘Tlnergy

and hours will bring success.” Doesn’t this as¬

A nieinb<»r of The Billboard ataff visited the park to get a line on the various nttraitlona that are proving ench a ma^inet to tbousauda. nnd he found plenty to iutercat. entertain and amuse. While it was an opiK^rtune time to in- epeet the T>arfc ^or pleasure it was not an g<«Hl for securing the mimes of everyone connected with the park, as It was some busy loinch, so It was with reluctance that the rejeirter passco ui> the big dance ball and refreshment i>avillon, bathing t>afiUoii, club house and offices nntll u time when there was less d-lng.

The first attraction encountered on entering the tiark Is the Silvery Snbway, a dellKhtful water ride that Is an especial favorite of the juungsters. Allas Alabel Clancy, • charming and affable young lady. Is acting as cashier while Joseph Wilson is away on his vacation. B. K. Atkins is on the gate, and the Inside is bindled by three brothers, Dewey, William and Itoy Heller. On to the right, past the vaudeville theater, one comes to the Honey¬ moon Kipress, the mildest of the coaster ridea, with TTank Albert in charge; Joim llankson, caitbier, and John Berger and John Both. On anmnd the lake to the Bine Streak, in charge of U. Mnrken. The cashier, M. Arnold, was busy banding ont tickets, and th<*re was a con¬ tinuous stream of pleasure-seekers waiting for a ebanee to enjoy this, the longest ride in the park. Inside were B. EulenlH-rg and "Burk** twe didn’t catch his last name), who, with bis wife, is spending the summer at the park.

‘Next, the Whip, in charge of Jolin J. Shan- tioo, with K. C. t<(iiBfer in the ticket box, and the Kick, H. T. Herr In cimrge and H. Per¬ kins. Bssistant. Then the biggest fun-maker In the park, Illlarity Hall. Hero ah ne one can find an entire evening's entertainment. This feature is in charge of .liminy Itae, who. in- lideatally, handles The Billboard at the park. Jimmy is on the Job every minute, looking af¬ ter the patrons and seeing that ever.vthing runs siiSKdhly. Back in the year of 'W* Jimmy itae was handling programs at the old Casino in 4'<diinil>iis, O., and later put in Pair years at tilentaugy Park in that city, so he is somctliing of an oldtimcr in the game, tbo as far as tp- is-anincp goisi one would not tlilnk so. John Knipp is chief mechanician, nnd « tliosnly ef¬ ficient one, and Win, J. KapiM-n is the cour¬ teous hi'Use officer, Walter Russell is in cliarge of the Twisters, one of Hilarity Hall’s fiin- mskers; John Clancy is at the Alpine Slide; td-orge Marsh, one of .Timmy’s most efficient a hies, was In tlio cashier's box Monday; others who help to make tlie hall a favorite for pveryliody are Charles Edmonds, Joe Owens, P. Kinith, Albert Ihirner ami Charles Wheeler. At the Hilarity Hail randy stand Mrs. hlora Kendall Is cashier and Mrs. .tmelia Flick, Cor¬ delia IBums and Viola Burns are tlie clerks, ail courteous nnd oliliging—and ail busy.

liverj'one at the Penny An'ade was working so hard that the reporter deemisl It inadvisable to stop there, so next in line was the Blue Ftresk. b'Ved I-. Harris, the man in charge, la also repairman, and his duties keep him pretty much on the go. Nevertheless he found time to chat a moment, and Tory courteously gave ail the Information requested. Mr. Harris has been wiOi the attmetion since lOlC. which is ample evidence of bis efficiency. ' lie baa an able corps of assistants; Heinic Keid>1er, cashier; Oeorge Koons, t^arlcs rorbus, Jim January end Carl Welnholx.

I’n.tiahly the greatest favorit? amcoig the Tides is the Derby Racer, ami it has Insm get¬ ting its share of business, according to C. B. Potter, the affable gentleman In ciiarge. M. ItMwn Is the cashier, and others employed on file ride are “Curly” Anderson. John Forsythe, Harry Ilockland and Delores Geyer. On the Gyroplane the writer found an old trouper. Just in off the road—Bert Geyer. Bert expects to siK-nd some time at the park, but eventually it'a iiack to the road. Louis Lauck la on the turn¬ stile.

UeSwigan, presi¬ dent of the Ketinywond Park Companies, and who Is also president of the National Assneiatioo of Amusement PsrVs. has Just had an amnsinc experience which helps to eorrohorat# bis belief that the old world Is growing better. Some days ago he received a letter reading:

“Enclosed Is a'dime which I neglected to pay while at your park the other day. It belongs to the stand where you throw three bolls and if they all go into the boles .von get a doll and if only two go in you get a N>x of candy.”

Mr. Mcifwigan is sorry that the srriter did not give any name or address, .os suck honesty, be thinks, should be handsomely and snitahly rewarded.

Austin C. Wilson’s Auto-races and Auto-polo- THE SUPERSENSATiON OF THE OUTDOOR SHOW WORLD,

AMERICA’S GREATEST DRAWING CARD.

Aiito-polo a.s a froo attraction each day and night! Auto-races the final day—are magnets which will directly attract thousands to your Fair—and the greatest builder for otherwise poor da\'S in the American fair worlcl. We have never yet failed to draw the largest crowds in the history of any fair Inioking these attractions—in many instances, the last thiy’s attendance surpassing previous greatest days.

Either Auto-polo or Auto-racing booked together or independently for one or more days. A'our opportunity of making a splendid suc- ctss of an otherwise' poor cUiy may be within your reach—special litho, cuts and other publicity furnished free—every co-operation given.

Itookc^l soliil to August the twenty-eighth. A few desirable open dates in September and October.

LalK)r Day opt'n. If you want a real attraction which will draw thousands instead of hundreds to your Labor Day celebration, here your opportunity.

We solicit corres|X)ndence with Southern Fairs.

Beats All Other Rides and Shows In the Carnival A Simple, Beautiful, High Speed Thriller of the First Class

Erects easier than a Carousell in four to six hours, earns double the money and coats less to build. Rides on its own wheels. Entire outfit goes on one 60-ft. flat car. Wheels are 6 ft., 6 in tread, with 6 in. wide tires. Furnished complete, with fence, entrance, exit, signs, ticket booth, 15 H. P. Cushman gasoline engine, complete erecting outfits, and trucks for hauling. •

This wonderful new Seaplane Ride will positively earn more money than any other Ride or Show with a Carnival. It carries 24 passengers. It is making 20 to 28 trips per hour. It is getting 20c a ride. It is creating a sensation wherever it is shown.

Stationary Seaplane Rides for Park use are operated with an elec¬ tric motor and have a stationary tower, set in concrete. This ride at Luna Park, Cleveland; Summit Beach, Akron; Luna Park, Coney Island, and elsewhere is earning from $600.00 to $1,500.00 per week. The Sea¬ plane is the last word in Rides, like the Circle Swing, which was invented by H. G. Traver in 1902, and built by him all over the world in 146 re¬ sorts. Park Managers should make reservations now for the next season. We also make Seaplane Cars for Old Circle Swings.

COMPLETE REPORT OF THE . CONVENTION AT BOSTON

New Hampshire and Vermont Exhibitors RcJly

at Hotel Arlington—Overflow Attendance—De¬ tails of Plans and Resolutions Adopted—Ex-'

Sen. Bean Presides—Sydney Cohen Speaks

A convention of the motion picture exhibitor*

of the State* of New llampithire anil Vermont

«'■* held at the Hotel Atiinstun, lloatun, Tue«>

Ur, July 27. Kx-Henator Cbarlea II. Kean of

Franklin, N. 11., acted a* cb.iirman. An invi¬

tation had iH'en extended to every exhibitor In

the«e State* to be present, and a verj- large

attemlance was had of independent, unutUUated exhibitors.

Sydney S. Cohen, president of the Motion Pic¬

ture Tlieater Owners of America, adilresaed the

convention. Mr. Cohen reporte<l the activities of

the Motion d’icture Tbeater Owners of America

since the national convention at Cleveland, and

a generil discussion was had by all of the ex¬

hibitors present relative to the abases existing

in the indnstry, and the deair* and necessity for

the changing of same at the earliest iioaslble

moment.

The quotas for the fftates of New Hampshire

and Vermont towards the national fund were

overanbscrlbed in cash at the convention.

The following resolutions were unanimously

adopted:

TVHERE.AR, The New Hampshire ExhlMtors*

I-eague in coaveation at Boaton has been Informed

r f the recent evenU at OeveUad. O., which have

W to the formatioD of a national body of ex-

bibltora now kxosm as the Motion Picture Own-

(Ts of .America; and,

WHERCA8, This Convention approves of the

(liana and parpssea of the Motion Picture Thea¬

ter Owners of America as expressed in the acts

and resointloas of the said Cleveland conven¬

tion; and.

WHERAS, We have fall confidence in the abll-

ity and integrity of the officials elected at said

convention; therefore, be it RESiILVED, Tbat the New iHampshire State

Exhibitors* League declare its allegiance to the

said Motion Plcturo Theater Owners of America.

ON PEKOENTAGB

That the New Hampabire Motion Picture 'niea-

ter Owner* decUro their firm opposition to every

form of percentage booklBg. We look upon per¬

centage booking as a deliberate step of the

producing interests to gain poeseasion of our

* theater and to put the independent exhibitor out

of boaineas. We appeal and ask aid for this policy, not only to onr fellow exhibitora, but to

the great hosts of the public who are regular

patrons of motion picture theaters. If the

same intereata control production and exhibitor

there ran be but one result, higher prices of

admission and poorer pirtorea.

ADT’ANCK PATMENTS

That this organisation is opposed to paying In

foil for any picture as a deposit or an advance

payment. Tbat we condemn the elTorta of any

flUtributing organization attempting to enforce

such (wyment on signing of a contract, and that

the member* of this organiz.ation hereby pleilge

themselves not to enter into any contract re¬

quiring (Miyment in full for any picture more

than aeven daya before play date.

PRODUCER-EXHIBITOR WHERE.AS, This committee, after carefully

deliberating on the data placed before It and

after Interviewing indlvidnally and collectively

many Independent exhibitors who are accredited delegates from all i>oints of New Hamjishire to

this convention, unanimously reports to this

convention that they condemn the practice of any

mannfartnrer or prodocer or distributor of mo¬

tion picture film of buying or bnilding theater*

in coninetttiiin with Indeiiendent exhibitors, and

they further denounce as being unfair and

vicious the practice of these companies or their

agents and representatives in threatening es-

hibitora with competition or ruination if they

do not accede to their an warranted demands;

therefore be it

KE.'^LVED, That it ts the sense of yonr com¬

mittee tbat this organization in convention as¬

sembled urge every independent exhibitor to

nse every lawful means to prevent the continna-

tion of the activities of theae producer-exhibitor

companies; and, be it further

RI-^SOIA'ED, That the Motion Picture Theater

Owner* of New Hampshire pledge their full ani>-

port and co-operation to the Motion Picture

Theater Owners of America in their effort to

kee|> the acreens and theaters of America free

and independent.

CONTRACTa It is the sense of this committee that the

contract! now entered into by and between the

exhibitor and the producer are inequitable, and

this committee recommends that a contract

lie drafted and snbmltted to the producer and

distributor whereby the exhibitor will at ail times

have e<iual right* and be equally protected

therein with the distributor and producer. We

further recommend tliat a uniform form of con¬

tract be used by a# distributors and producer*.

It I* further recommended tbat the law and

Iegi*latlve committee cause such a contract to

be drafted and submitted to the distributor and

proilucer and a reiwrt returned forthwith as

to their attitndc regsrdlng same.

CBNs6r.<!HIP

RF.J30LVED, 'Tliat we realize that the screen aa

a channel fur the transmission of thought excels

all other meillums of expression heretofore

known. We arc fully eognlzant of the reaponsl-

blllty which this fact entails upon ua, and tbat

national organization was funned. In part at

least, for the purpose of a united and Intelli¬

gent use of the screen. We, and the public, are

the sole Juiige* of what goes on our screen, and

there are aiiihcient local pobc^ powers to keep

from the screen cbweene Him*. We are, there¬

fore, nnalterab^ opposed to all forms of cen-

aorship. Censorship has proven a failure in the

three Htatea where it baa been tried, and no

one will seriously maintain tbat five or six years

of motion picture censorship has established high¬

er standards of morality In Pennsylvania, Kan¬

sas* and Maryland than in any other portion of

the country.

We reiterate our opposition to local. State

nr federal ren*or*hip, as censorship Is viclons in

principle and wholly alien tu the spirit and

gennlneness of our institutions. The great factor

in the control and management of all forms of

public amusement is public opinion. Public

opinion keeps a careful watch over every form

of amusement, and no form of amusement can

exist without public approval.

Tbat this organization take all proper means

and lawful steiw to prevent the enactment of

any such viclons laws.

MUSIC TAX

RESOLVED, Tbat it be the sense of this com¬

mittee that inasmneb as the success of the

members of the So<iefy of Authors, Composers

and IbiMishera, and the soccea* of their prodne.

tions. is based almost exclusively upon tbe popu¬

larizing of such productions by tbe playing of

them in the motion picture theaters, that we

rondentn as unjust, inequitable and an ingrati¬

tude on their part that they should insist upon

tbe additional collection from onr theaters after

they have been paid a sulHolent sum for each

piece of music to yield them a just and fair

profit.

RE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That inasranrh

as we have (lopularUed by permitting tbe music

publishers' singers to Uirow slides on our screens

and use onr stage, that from this time forth ws

will deny to all members of the Society of Com¬

posers, Autliors and I*ul>llsliers the use of tbe

screen and the use of tint stage until they dis¬

continue tbeir present ineiiultable and unjust

demands.

RE IT FURTHER RESOLVED. That the said

society and ail Its Individual members be official¬

ly notified of this action.

INDEPENDENT PRODUCER

This convention looks upon tbe motion picture

ait as one of limitless (lossiblltties and will al¬

ways reject the Idea that this motion picture

art esn fall into the hands of a few to the ex¬

clusion of tbe many. Tbia coovention pledges

its h««rty and practical support to tbe Independ¬

ent producer and dlatributur and declares ita

Intention of aas sting both the independent pro-

dneev and dlatributor in marketing their prod-

net*. We believe thst there can be no end to

competition in producing pictures of quality.

P.I.UM. CLUBS

RESOLVED, That this convention protests

against the activity of the ao-called F.LL.M.

clubs or similar organizationa tbruout the couo-

try. These club* or organizations pretend to act

in place of the lawfully constituted court*

of the country in all disputes between producer*

or exchanges on tbe one hand and exb.bitors on

the other band. They presume to enforce ob«>dl-

enre to their decisions by demanding unressunabln

deixislts or denying film service to the exhibitor

who refuses to abide by them and who seeks

redress for h'.s grievance* in the court* of law.

RESOLVED, That a certified copy of this reso¬

lution be sent to the Attorney tleneral of the

United State*, with the request that he take

.notion In th* premises, because the presumed

jur sdictlon of tharfe F.I.UM. clubs uniformly

claims to extend from State to Stote.

STUEEN OWNERSHIP

(The use of the screens for publicity, advertis¬

ing purposes, etc., for which exhibitor receive*

DO remuneration or benefit.) The motion picture theater owners in conven¬

tion assembled now make a public declaration

of the fart tbat tbe screen* of this country be¬

long to them snd to the public which they serve.

This convention condemns the practice of cer¬

tain producers' organisations to pledge tbe

s< reens of this country to any purisise wnatever.

It unnot be poaslble that you are an ntterly

Irreepoiialble person and hold the Important

IKjittion you occupy In the I'nited Artlata' Oor-

puration. tio that el cannot avo d the deter¬

mination, If the exigencies ever again require

my convetsing with you, that I cannot afford

to ,10 KO wltlio'it the presence of a stenographer.

Of course, I assume that you have been quote,!

curreetly. This Is not wrttten with a view to protecting

any dlacneslon that I might ha\ e had w ith you,

for neither my time nor my taste will permit

It. It may be It Is your memory that la faulty;

your heart may be In the right place. So let

me review for you exactly what bapiiened:

I aaked you to mod fy the provlelona of the

rontraet issued by the I’nltd .Yrtista* Corpora¬

tion for the playing of tbeir productions, which

ritcted the entire amount uf the rental price

In edvence on the elgning of the contracts by

the exb.bltor. ! advised you that If yon were

. .11 this It weuld (in my oplnioo) be of great

he.p and aHlatance to the organization you

rei'retent, because the opiH>rtnnlty Is presented

at this time of some producer or diatrlbuter

nwbillxlng the good will of the exhibitor, particu¬

larly so in view of the retentment and an¬

tagonism that baa developed amonget exhibitor*

against certain rrodnrere and dlatributere.

Your intimation that I was seeking a per-

s.aial advantage i* entirely unwarranted *■ well at a bare-faced misrepresentation. Onr eorre-

,?.'ndence will abow that I personally notified

r-aj In wTitlng In advance of our conference

that I weiild refuse to do buelneea with yonr

crganlsatlon at long as yon peralated In exact¬

ing the entire amoant of the film rental more

thin seven day* *1n advance Of the actual pley

dates at my theaters.

As lar as the State of New York Is concerned,

I beg to assure yon that the New York State

organliation will make yen Uve up to both the

letter and the aplrlt of the law which impoec*

OB you the duty of keep'ng the advance pey-

ment mnneye eeparate and distinct from yonr

other asaeta, and Impoeea a trnst upon the**

noneya.

If yon had attended the National Cnoventlon

at Oveltnd yon would have been struck with

tk' determination of the exhibitor* from other

^tatee in attendance to emulate the example

of Nes- Tnrk|and to pat all advance payments

nodcr the tu^rvition of each State authority.

Ton, no doubt, realize that the legialatieu

which 1* now on the etatete books of this State

(and will soon be on the statute book* of every

other Stats in this Tnion) has met with general

approval In and oot of the industry, because It

does two things; it assures the exhibitor against

misappropriation of bis money and It has a

wholesome tendency to stamp out the wildest

promoter from this Industry, wbicb has suffered

alh'gether too long.

T 'U may look upon explanations of the law

aa sup, rflnoni, because, doubtleaa, no man

knows the llmitatinn* of the law better than

TOO do; but thi* is an age of mutual helpful-

In conclusion, let me say that your attitude

towards the exhibitor is In striking contrast

srlth the courteous censldaratlon ehown to na

by Mr. D. W. Orifflth In a personal conference

had with him. It once more accentuates a dif¬

ference too long and too mildly endured—the

difference between the creator and the pro¬

moter.

they may have with other producing concerns,

will always have time to meet problem* aoch

P. S.—In view of your statement In reply to

my letter to Mr. D. W. Orifflth that the

coresspendence between your organization and

Mr. Tom Boland, of Oklahoma City, speaks

for Itself, and the atatement that yonr bands

are clean, carrying the intimation that Mr.

Boland’s are nut, 1 am herewith enclosing copy

of letter sent by Mr. Boland to Mr. Ralph Tal¬

bot, member of the Executive Committee of the

Motion ITctore Theater Owners of America, and

I srant you to know I resent the Intimation on

your pert relative to Mr. Boland.

Oklahoma City. Okla., Jnty S. 1920.

Mr. Ralph Talbot, Preoident Oklahomn Theater

Owners' and Manager*' Association, TiRsa,

Okla.

Ifnr Mr. Talbot;

Aa a member of the Execntlve Board I wish

to call yonr attention to a recent act of the

United Artists in this territory.

1, ae yon know, have always need their eerr-

ire, and price ha* never been entered Into, ae

they have always been fair to me and It waa

Jnet a question of dates.

Four weeks ago. while In Dellas, tbetr mana¬

ger, Mr. Lockett, celled me to his office and

booked me "Mollycoddle and Buds,’* glrtag me

datee and forwarding me aU paper.

He advised me that be would forward me

rontrarts at a later date, wbioh he ha* done

on other occasions.

A* you know, I was railed East, and when 1

retomed, three days before showing of picture,

I learned that eontrerts bad not airiTed, but

that all paper had been pot oot and advertleing

man had billed it heavily. I called op the

Dallas office, and they Informed me they bad

contracts from New Yorh Omt were signed by

another maa that waa boUdlBg in Oklahoma City.

Now, Ralph, my point 1* this: The fact of

losing a picture to a aecond consideration, aa

the party they aold It to cannot get open this

year; bnt I felt that aomeune abonld bare ad¬

vised me that I was not going to get the plc-

tnre, and not allow me to go on and advertise

It and never say a word. The fact Is, If we

hadn't called up about It, they would never

have mentioned It and allowed me to have a

dark bouae on July Fonrth.

Pox. a* you know, tried thla aamc thing on

one of our boy* three year* ago, and pon know

the reanlt*.

I am asking that you call a meeting ae aoon

aa possible that we may take some aetton, aa I

expect to see this thru.

Again. I have some iefftolaUTt matters to take

up with the Board.

Hoping your tnulness is good, and with beat

wMhes, 1 am Very ti^Iy yoora. (Sdgned) TOM H. BOl,AM».

CONCESSIONS TO THE T.M.A.ARE VOTED DOWN BY ACTORS’

EQUITY

(Continued from page 7)

figure*, they allege, are conaervaMve and we r*n well believe It. If their organization and the Actor*’ EXiulty Association agree on a contract, then these figures will donhtlesa grow much larger.

"The tenna. as stated above, are the final ones and were only arrived at after several long and argumentative meetingr*.

"Now the questions you have to ask yonmelve* are these; .Are you prepared to recognize that this particular class of manager ahonid receive special consideration? Do you believe that If Iw were not granted aame that many of them would be driven ont of the business, snd that In consequence some of our members would have to go without workf

"TTier# la another ami more Important ques¬ tion which yon abould think over—whether at the present moment It la advisable to consider as e baais of negotiationa the granting by the Bonager of the so-called Equity Bhop in ex¬ change for an agreement as to a change in con¬ ditions. The r-ounc'l of the Actors’ Equity has atway* rxmsidered that there are many advantages attached to the Equity Shop.

It hat always seemed to me unfair that actors who do not pay dnes to the A. E. A. should receive the advantages for which we all fought and paid for In money and In travail. I must confess, however, that when the sutje* t of the Elqulty Shop was broache<l to the TVurlng Managers they came out firmly against it, tsit tliat does not necessarily mean that they would not have to accept it ahonid we. ths .issociation, decide to make It an issue. Yon may, if you choose, turn down this entire proposition which has been made by the Tonring .Managers; you may say that you desire the standard con<lition>i in ALL traveling companies; that what is ac¬ cepted aa ‘enstom* by the big and auccessfnl managers shall alto IM accepted as enstom by the smaller cues; or you may say to the Touring Managers, ‘Y’es, we will accept yonr new con¬ ditions If you will grant ns the Equity Shoi>,’ or a third plan might be for you to instruct your Council to put the whole matter op to a referen¬ dum vote, and the very last po. dlity of which 1 < an think at the present momeni Is that yon may turn the whole thing back to your Council with recommendations and appoint from your own iiiciiiliers a committee of twenty-five to confer with tile Council and advise It.

"A giKsI many anxious hours have been spent in i-on'*idering this matter, and whatever aid those of you who have played In the one-nigbt- stand and number two companies can give ns will be gratefully received. 1 myself have er deavoretl to learn the feeling of our members, but hare found almost as many against it aa for It.

In this address I have tried to present the matter without partiality so us not to influence you one way or the other, but in case I have not been clear on every p< lnt 1 beg of yon to ask me questioca.”

Following this speech the members discussed the proposition, and after quest.on* hud been asked and answered and the scheme made clear tlie momhers one after another arose and volce«l •trong opposition to the plan. The stand taken l>.v u.ost uf the speakers was that they bad fought shoulder to shoulder with the actors playing in first-class attractions for the obtaining of the Equity contract and considered themselves as much entitled to its benefits as tbs rest of the membership. The opinion was also expressol thst if any concessions were to be made they should not be made by the actor.

A motion reading that the Council of the A. E. A. I)e authorized to demand from the Touring Managers’ Association the same contract as that issued by the Producing Managers' Asso¬ ciation was then made, seconded from all over the hall, an<l passed with but few dissenting voices.

The Billboard reporter asked Frank Gillmore today what the course of the EXjnity wonhi be if the T. M. A. reffisetl to Issue the A. E. A.- I*. M. A. form of contract. Mr. Gillmore said that in this event the Equity would take what¬ ever steps were necessary to carry out the man¬ date of the members as expressed at last night’s meeting. Asked If this might mean a strike Mr. Gillmore repeated bis statement that the ne<'essary steps would be taken tw enforce the decision of the meeting.

New York, .Aug. 2.—Cp to the hour of going to press no reply had b^n received at Equity headquarters from the Touring Managers’ Asso¬ ciation to Frank Gillmore's letter notifying them of Equity’s action.

John J, Coleman, secretary-treasurer of the Touring Managers’ .Association, was asked thi* afternoon by a Billboard representative If be wished to make any statement regarding tbe action of Eqnity, ami be replied that be did not rare to say anything.

who elect to make their permanent addreaa in eare of The Billboard may, of course, choose any of our branch ofRcea, i. a,. New York, Chicago, 8L Louie or San Francisco, but are advised, if they are cn route, to consider the home office carefully.

CINCINNATI IS BUT THIRTY-ONE MILES FROM THE GEOGRAPH. ICAL CENTER OF POPULATION OF THE UNITED STATES AND CAN- ADA, and it follows naturally that lass delay will anaua in the handling and forwarding of your mail.

Ws want our aarvica to continue to be, as it always haa bean, the vary bast and promptest, and. therefore, wa recommend “PERMANENT ADDRESS, CARE OF THE BILLBOARD, CINCINNATI.”

It ia unnecessary in writing for mail to uea a salf-addraasad and stamped envelope—A POSTAL CARD WILL DO. Give your route far enough ahead to permit your mail to reach you. Write namaa of towns, dates and signature plainly.

LETTERS ARE HELD THIRTY DAYS ONLY,

after which, if no address has bean obtained, they are sent to the Dead Latter Office. It ia desirable to write for mail whan your nama FIRST appears in the lisL Address yoqr postal to "Mail Forwarding Service, The Billboard.”
