NEW YORK TO HAVE FIVE NEW SHUBERT THEATERS

Half Million Dollars To Be Expended on Small Houses for Dramatic Productions—To Be

Located in Lonagacre Square Section

New York, Dec. 6.—The unpre-cedented shortage of playhouses here and the likelihood that there will be an ever-increasing demand for thee-tent have resulted in the Messrs. Shu-bert planning live new theaters which they hope to have ready for occupancy at the opening of the 1920 fall season.

Plans for these playhouses, which will be erected in the Longacre Square section, were filed this week by Ed-ward Margolies, builder for the Shu-berts. Lee Shubert stated that work on the new buildings would be started early next spring and that they would be completed by next fall. Ile added that the houses will be small and suited for dramatic productions. They will be located in Forty-eighth and Forty-ninth streets and the estimated cost of the live is $500.000. H. J. Krapp is the architect.

"Plays run longer now than they used to," said Mr. Shubert. "This is elpecially true of dramatic produc-tions. Because of these protracted runs I have no theaters for some of the producers who book their attrac-tions in our houses." Such a shortage of playhouses as

now faces New York was never before known in theatrical history, and the erection of new theaters seems to be

Theaters Restricted

In Indiana Because of Seercity of Coal

Indianapolis, Dec.. 6.—While thea-ters of Indianapolis are running as tartlet during the coal shortage, those in other cities of the State a-e not so fortunate. The local authorities take the attitude that a theater audience is better off at its amusement than it wn.ild otherwise, and that the con-sumption of coal is less. Different views are taken elsewhere and many theaters thruout the State are closed down. One show a day is the ulti-matum at Knightstown, Ind. Thea-ters of Kokomo must close at 9 o'clock daily, except Saturday, when they may remain open until 10 o'clock. At Terre Haute Sunday shows are being al-eed, but no heat is being provided. Vincennes theaters have been or-ed to suspend altogether.

New Athens (Ga.) House

Athens, Ga., Dee. 6.—Construction work has started on the new $200,000 Palace Theater to be erected here by James F. Shehane. Plans provide for one of the most modern theatrical houses in the entire South. Due to the fact that the University of Georgia is located here, and has an enrollment of more than 2,000, an up-to-date theater of this kind was badly needed in Athens and should prove a success-ful venture. Work has been delayed because of the scarcity of material and the labor situation, but Mr. Shehane stated that he expected to have the theater completed and ready for oc-cupancy by June 1, 1920.

The McOwen Company, which takes possession of the Pershing Theater

December 15, comes from Erie, Pa.

The seriousness of the coal situation confronting the country is evidenced by the drastic measures which are be-ing taken in virtually the entire cGun-try to conserve the fuel supply. Move-ment of show trains has been curtailed in some sections and entirely discon-tinued in others. Theaters have been closed in a number of towns, the num-ber of performances cut and electric displays prohibited in others, and un-iese the output of crust is speedily in-creased further restrictions may be made necessary.

In New York City many of the thea-ters have voluntarily darkened their signs after 8:30 at night in an effort to save coal, .lotion picture theaters cf New York City and of New Jersey have agreed to use electric signs only an hour each night, from 7:20 to 8:30, The Shuberts announce that their theaters thruout the country have adopted that plan.

In Chicago the authorities have de-cided that until the coal shortage la checked theaters will be restricted to six performances a week. The Pal-ace and Majestic theaters, vaudeville, were closed the first half of thls week. The situation was so bad In St. Paul

that it was said all theaters probably would have to close.

In Des Moines all the theaters were closed for one day last week and at Sioux City all theaters are closed for an indefinite period. The same is true of most of the smaller towns thruout Iowa. Kansas and other Middle West-ern States. On December 1 the Coal Committee

at St. Louis announced that no more coal mulct be furnished to the thea-ters; until the output of coal was great-ly increased.

Waahlnarton, D. C., Dee. 6.—The spirit back of all theatrical enterprises in Washington is best manifested by the meeting which has just been held here for the purpose of taking steps to meet situations already arising and certain to arise from the coal situa-tion. The meeting was called by Harry Crandall at his office and Mr. Crandall was elected chairman. It was the sense of this meeting, which was composed of representatives of all theatrical houses here—dramatic, vaudeville, motion picture and others —that the thing to do was to conserve coal voluntarily rather than wait go have the detailed plan suegeeted by Federal departments. The program agreed upon, which has already been put Into effect, was elected by the elimination of all signs and outside lights except those necessary for the protection of the public. Back of this movement was the idea that if all of the theatrical concerns of Washington got together and commenced the con-servation of coal down to the last pos-sible lump all would be affected equally and that the aim of those pres-ent at the conference to aid the public would be accomplished.

Pittsburg, Pa., Dec. R.—The Thea-ter Managers' Protective Association of Pittsburg by unanimous action has volunteered to help in the conserva-tion of coal by eliminating the use of electric sign:, except for one hour in each twenty-four. This hour has been fixed at from 7:30 to 3:30, the time the audiences, as a rule, are entering the theaters.

(Reviewed Monday Matinee, December 8)

NO CHICAGO REVIEWS

There are no reviews of the Poi so, and Majestic theaters, Chicago, this week. On account of the coal shortage both houses closed Satur-day night, to remain closed until Wednesday, December 10,

New York, Dec. 8.—Much shimmy and jazz on the Palace bill this week, but the audience liked LL The chow lot essentially the modern type of bill with lots of naoh and only a thin spreading of talent In the feature turns.

The Mangean Troupe gave the show a fast start with z, straight acrobatic act. Seven people who do a routine of tip-top stunts dexterously and surely. The "tandem eomernault," which they feature, is a wonderful trick. One of the men turns the nomertUtult with a boy sitting on hie shoulder% from the teeter board to the shoulders of the underatander. A great trick performed in a ma_sterful manner. Only six minutes, but something doing all the time and a corking opener.

McMahon and Diamond were next and made a hit frights spot. Maurice Diamond is a splendid performer. lie sings well and dances better. For a b:g man it he amazing how he doe.. the Russian steps go welL Nobody does more In this line than he, and few as much. lielen McMahon in the rag doll bit scored strongly. The couple are assisted by Ethel Roeevere, and the three put on a couple of harmony numbers that are very pleasing. Fourteen min-ute..

"The Little Cottage" followed. This is one of George Choos' acts. Three principals and ten girls, with special scenery. There is an attempt at a story, bit it is soon lost In the shuffle and the entertainment is mostly in the num-bers. The turn is costumed and mounted beautifully. There are quite a few laughs, but the oh:rnnly is the main attraction. Everybody does it, and at one time there were on even dozen on the stage shimmying the very shimmy ou', of the shimmy. The audience liked it, tho, so evidently they have the right Ideals. The featured principals are Frank G. Sinclair. Cliff Dixon and Goldie Collins Thirty-six manites.

Iteatrice ,lerfori filled the number four spot with her interesting charac-ter!zations. She opened with "The Hat Shop," a study of the milliner's sales-lady. Next came "The Matinee Girl," and she finished with "The Ten-Cent Store Girl." Each of these le admirable. They are all delicious takeoffe, and It Is hard to say which i s the best. Miss Herford 14 at all times enjoyable and the way she heightens a point with a deft, sure touch is the fruit of much

entertaining experience. Many a vaudeartiet could sit at her feet and learn much from this lady, whose vaudeville career has been only a short one. May

she be long with us. Fourteen minutes.

"Me" Quinn. with Frank Farnum, George Kreer and the Memphis Flee. followed with what the program states is "The last word In jazz art." We don't doubt that it is, and, as tar as that goes, wish that the billing was literally correct. The Memphis Five blared and brayed a lot of noise that goes by the na-me of jazz music. The dancers shook their bodies a lot and their feet a little, and that goes by the name of jazz dancing. It certainly is jazz, and It may be art—we don't know. In any event, the audience liked it. for the act was the hit of the bill., Thirty-four minutes.

Topics or the Day followed intermission with a few aphorisms and much humor. Everybody liked that, too.

Bkineom Seeley, in "Seeley's Syncopated Studio," came next. :'.11ea Seeley is assisted by Field,, Grossman, Lynch and Loper She sang a tot of rag songs and snapped, her lingers vigorously during the rendition of one of them. This raises an interesting point. Is Blossom Seeley the last of the finger-nnappers or is she the tiret of a new lot? We leave that to the vaudeville pundits to mull over. For twenty-nlne. minutes the "Studio" worked hard, and at the finish a bunch of flowers was handed over the footlights, thus fulfilling the best traditiont of Palace opening day.

Williama and Wolfus then made their appearance. A big reception greeted

Herbert Williams, and then he rolled up his sleeves and got to his task. This only consisted of making the audience howl with glee for twenty-five minute» He did it, too, but didn't get any flowers. Poor Herbert! Hilda Woifus helped out on the laugh-getting, and, as a further aid, Williams has put in a couple of new ones as good as any of the old. If Williams and Wolfue ever considered changing their billing they might well substitute "A Real Vaudeville Act." This would be novel, deiscriptive and the truth.

Bothwell Browne and his bathing beauties closed the show. Thiel act is a big flash, with lote of ergs in various stages of undress, and Lothwell doing one of those dances. A story goes with the dance and the dancer interprets it. The Program matter is of great aid in finding out what the dance is all about. At the finish Bothwell took off his wig. This was very exciting. Then we all went home.—GORDON WHITE.

PRESIDENT WILSON'S MESSAGE TO CONGRESS

MESSAGE T(I'ND k MANAGERS (It is a relief sometimes to use other people's words,

and, therefore, I reprint here portions of President Wilson's Message to Congress on December 2, 1919, which can be read with interest by both Managers and Actors and are worthy of the deepest and the most earnest consideration of Vaudeville Managers of this Country and the members of the V. M. P. A.)

"The only way to keep men from agitating against grievances is to remove the grievances. An unwillingness even to discuss these matters produces only dissatisfaction and gives comfort to the extreme elements in our country, which endeavor to stir up disturbances in order to provoke Governments to embark upon a course of retaliation and re-pression.

"The seed of revolution is repression. The remedy for these things must not be negative in character. It must be constructive. It must comprehend the general interest. The real antidote for the unrest which manifests itself is not sup-pression, but a deep consideration of the wrongs that beset our national life and the application of a remedy.

"Congress must now help in the difficult task of finding a method that will bring about a genuine democratization of industry, based on the full recognition of the right of those who work, in whatever rank, ta participate in some organic way in every decision which directly affects their welfare.

"Frankly there can be no permanent and lasting settle-ments between capital and labor which do not recognize the fundamental concepts for which labor has been strug-gling thnugh the yt:ars_

"It is, therefore, the task of the statesmen of this new day of change and readjustment to recognize world condi-tions and to seek to bring about, through legislation, condi-tions that will mean the ending of age-1-mg antagonisms be-tween capital and labor and that will hopefully lead to the building up of a comradeship which will result not only in greater contentment among the mass of workmen, but also bring about a greater production and a greater prosperity to business itself.

"To analyze the particulars in the demands of labor is to admit the justice of their complaint in many matters that lie at their basis.

"This offers us the way to industrial peace and concilia-tion. No other road lies open to us. Not to pursue this one is longer to invite enmities, bitterness and antagonisms which in the end only lead to industrial and social disaster.

"The unwilling workman is not a profitable servant. An employee whose industrial life is hedged about by hard and unjust conditions, which he did not create and over which he had no control, lacks that fine spirit of enthusiasm and volunteer effort which are the necessary ingredients of a great producing entity.

"Governments must recognize the right of men col-lectively to bargain for humane objects that have at their base the mutual protection and welfare of those engaged in all industries. Labor must not be longer treated as a com-modity. It must be regarded as the activity of human be-ings, possessed of deep yearnings and desires.

"In the matter of international disputes which have led to war statesmen have sought to set up as a remedy arbi-tration for war. Does this not point the way for the set-tlement of industrial disputes, by the establishment of a tribunal, fair and just alike to all, which will settle indus-trial disputes which in the past have led to war and dis-aster?

"Surely there must be some method of bringing to-gether in a council of peace and amity these two great in-terests, out of which will come a happier day of peace and co-operation, a day that will make for more comfort and happiness in living and a mr.re tolerable condition among all classes of men."

At Vac "Old Friends' Club" a potter game scene, w'th Ted Burns as a semi-drunk down and ont member, bordered on the dramatic, due

to Ted's recitation, followed by a, eeng, "I Mast Say Good by," and then by an accompaniment by Drees Mack with "Some Days." It was well worked up; not for laughs, but Manama sentiment

Comic Monhy, in a specialty, put over a

parody "Momentn." and followed It with a pichont, in which the choristers received turner

Carl lee Angelo, in an Italian chararterisitkrn.

furnished none sentimental emotionalism with his conception of George Beban's "Ify Little Rosa." and in his songs and action Carl was

eery acceptable to the patrons of burlesque. Drena Mack and Itaymond Paine, singing

"Preacher Makes Ton Mine." were recalled pee-

eral woes. Paine, at a hotel clerk, bad a fanny session

with senri-drant guest. Ted, and then exited

men who naine coal. Business, mantis facturing, commerce, amusements, education, religion, health, comfort, life itself, are all at the mercy of the man in the pit. At this hour It may be vieil for us to look back over the road that labor has traveled. We can better appreciate the struggles of our own time If we understand the long, bloody battles that have been tonight that we might arrive at our present position.

II:nerson says: "The whole inter-ests of history lie in the fortunes of the poor." What has been the laborer:. reward?

Ilas the workingman been given a square deal? From the beginning to the present time every advance in the condition of the working man has been by the force of his own pow-ers against the determined opposition of those who have chiefly benefitted by Als toll. One by one the fetters have fallen as the laborer has toiled upward thru the centuries. At the dawn of history we find the labor of the world being performed by slaves. In Greece and Rome the fields were tilled and menial household duties were performed by slaves. One reads

There was a labor question then. It usas not a question of wages, for there were few freemen who worked for wages, and thesie were utterly despised even by tile slaves. There was no question as to hours of labor or the right of the minorer to organize. The mastere queetIoned: ''I lose can we compel these chattels of ours to serve our needs and our whine?" The slaves questioned:"Ilow can me safe-ly evade the toll that springs from no impulse and brings no recompense?" The wonder deepens that sane man could believe that fetters forged in the heat of such deadly hatred and welded by blows of oppression could hold so-ciety together. Slavery in Europe was doomed, but it took the masters sev-eral centuries to find it out. Gradual-ly it dawned upon them that an Indus-trial sestem which makes your work-man your natural enemy Is economic-ally unsound.

T1IEN serfdom followed. As Prometheus was chained to the

rock these serfs were chained to the soil, enjoying, however, a much larger measure of liberty than the slaves. But.

ILL T. HAYS, chairman of the

BACK TO THE HOME

National Republican Committee, in a speech at a banquet in New York given by the Republican Women's Ex-ecutive Committee of the Empire State, pledged the Republican Party to the plan of equal distribution of the honors, control and direction of the party, making no distinction between men and women.

This alone Is an epochmaking decla-ration. It means more than its face s•alue would Indicate. It means much more, too, when we consider his next great declaration.

In regard to labor Mr. Hays declared that the economic situation was simply a matter of Roosevelt's "square deal."

"To that end," he said, "we must develop a reasonable method for hon-est and efficient labor to acquire an interest in the business to wh.ch la-bor is expected to give Its best efforts. Pending this development an equi-librium between production and wages must be established."

This principle of labor's right to a VO .CP in the control of business, its right to a part In She management and direction of theehusIneens which it helps to create, lean epoch-creating declare-lion. At this very hour we see how neees-

tarritAs for capital and labor to unite, iee how dependent we are upon the

The strength of any people lies in their love of home. When the home spirit dies or weakens the nation is doomed. The elements which make for the destruction of that spirit are far more deadly than the radical-ism which is so incessantly harped on today. One of the first things to be dont- ia creating contentment le to help people to have decent homes, with such measure of comfort in them as to permit the enjoy-ment of other essential and rational pleasures to which they are en-titled by the mere fact of living. That the love of home and the culti-vation of the home spirit is a rapidly disappearing American charac-teristic is apparent.

A boy pays attention to a girl. Instead of entertaining him in her own house, In the atmosphere where they belong, they go either to a dare,-hall or a neighborhood movie or any place away from the family lite. This fever to get away from the proper restrictions of home poisons their courtship, and, when they ar.• marriod, nover having developed the home spirit, they are unable to create it in the marital establish-ment. So they continue to do as married people what they did as sweethearts. The virus is passed on from father to eon and from mother to daughter until before long the home gets to be nothing more than a place to eat and sleep.

There Is an excuse for this in homes which by reason of economic servitude are made uninhabitable. There is perfect propriety in occa-sional enjoyment outside the home environment, but the constant ex-position of the holier that "any old place but home, sweet home, is good enough for me" is a most dangerous symptom in the national character.

The underlying blame is to be placed on the shoulders of those who pay insufficient wages to their workers to make and keep a habitable and attractiv:- place for children. There is no hope for remedying con-ditions until that fundamental evil is removed. The rest is a matter of education and effort. The wk:cly heralded "conimunity service" is

another potent factor in weaning US away from home by furnishing at-tractions to pull us away from it. True community service lies not in en-couraging people to get away from borne. but in helping to make homes possible for them and then educating them to enjoy and appreciate them. When the apostles of "AmericanIzation"—that undefined, over-worked, utterly uncomprehended phrase—start out to preach their gospel their first slogan should not be "Back to the land." but "Back to the home."

asIth astonishment of Plato, Aristotle, Cicero and Cato that "A slave is a slave by nature, that he is born to thls destin)'; that slavery is a pollt:cal necessity, since no man who works for a livelihood could be fit for citi-zenship—that would be fatal to the state, and in order that there may he free citizens to rule the state there must be sieves to support them in idleness." Cicero wrote his daughter. Terentia, that "No gentleman ever made a copy of his own speeches or would fill Ws own cup with fragrant wine cooled with snow, because work Is for slaves, not for politicians."

These arguments, put forth by the most enlightened men of the time, in-dicate the deplorable condition of the workingman at the beginning of the Christian era. Dr. Schmidt exclaims: "What a society was this of Rome, tol-erating orgies where the blood of :drives mingled with the wine of their flower-crowned masters, where mortal comhat mingled with impure panto-mime, where the guests were offered in turn the grimaces of actors, the carnage of gladiators and the kisses of courtezans—where. Indeed, the most monstrous cruelty watt ailled with the most shameless llbertInisml"

evade the burdens laid upon hini and reduce the amount of his compulsery labor. Centuries wore on. Th.-workman began to inquire why the laborer should not have the right to choose his own employer and hies own employment, why the men who do the world's work should not he free men.

Then England was shaken to her center by a great religioue movemenu. which finally ended in the Reforms. tion. The preaching et' John W:rk• lif WIIS the largest influence in break. Mg the fetters of serfdom in England. When Wicklit Proclaimed that priest and king and proprietor get their rights from God and are responsible to Iltm It swept away the found:it:en of serfdom and eacramentalism as

There are other fetters to be broken. The ancient tyrant ordered one of his subjects, who was a blacksmith, to make

a chain of a given length. The chile was completed, when the tyrant order. cd that 14 length should be doubled. This was done, and the tyrant then ordered that the blacksmah be bouni with the chain he had made and cast into the flames. The brain of the la-borer conceived and h's hands wrousht many labor-savine t'eviee., hut the machinery. which is the expression of his powers of intellect, has been used to bind him remorselessly to his toll. "When steam arid the machine pro-duced the mill he %yes us-erse off than serfs, or even the slaves. hi ancestors." The stationary steam engine gathered the workmen emu* it and the factory system took the place of the dontestle system. The strength of the laborer was indefinitely multiplied. and Im-provements and Industr!al changes have taken place with bee imer,ne rapidity during the past century. The factory system changed the workman from a cherished dependent to siinpiy the living tool, of whom the emp:mer knows less than of his steam enzine and cares sit little as he knows. ta many instances the machine could be watched and tended by women an1 children.

the serf was only hit:f free. It seemed to be natural for the workingman to be dependent upon and subject to someone above him. The whole In-dustrial system was built upon the idea of the subjection of the many to the few. There carne a time when little groups of workingmen bound them-selves together for mutual aid and protection. Fugitives from their mas-ters swelled their number. T:teir rights were confirmed by the king, who round it to his advantage to strengthen these unions of free working men. They In-creased his revenue and strengthened authority. Graduainy the fetters of serfdom weakened and broke ne kings sought the support of the oommon people for their thrones, and mas,ers came to see that a freeman is vastly more likely to be a better servant than a bondman.

Th. n the labor question was, on the part of the master, mainly, hew th? workman could be kept in hla place as the member of an inferior clans, how the restrictions upon his liberty could he maintained and enforced, how he could he coerced into rendering service to those above him In the so-cial scale. On the part ot the work-man It was the question how he oould

"If the Government did what it ought to do it would appoint a com-mission to investigate the labor troubles, fix wages and let the United States Army say to the men: "You g, to work! If you don't you'll get neither coal nor food.'

"This is no time for pussyfoot poll-t'zlans."

MAILING THE (CHRISTMAS) BILLBOARD The Tilliboard has taken a definite and important position in the

profession.

It functions usefully.

It renders indispensable service which no other publication can-or

would if it could.

It has a mission.

It is forward looking, but not radical.

It Is liberal, hut not revolutionary.

It is candid. 'plain and outspoken without being incendiary.

lts editors -tell the truth as they Pee IL

Any member of the profession with a plaint or a grievance can have

it printed in The Billboard if he is honest and writes sincerely.

It stands for the best interests of the profession as a whole and

never Molds a brief for any special branch, class or division In it.

It Is the organ of no political party and advocates no fads, cults

or ismS, hut each week g!res a frank, open and honest presentation of

news, views and facts, together with comments that bring out and empha-

size their significance, and thus is instrumental In helping its readers to

form intelligent opinion.

Every thinking man and woman in the profession should read The

Billboard regularly

You, reader, can help to get them to reading it.

Send us 15 cents and the name of some member of the profession

(in America or abroad) and we will mall him a copy of our next imetle-

The Christmas Number. We will also mall him a beautiful Christmas

card stating that the paper is sent him at your instance with the compli-ments of the season from you. I

Also,

When you have finished reading your own copy of the Christmas

Issue, do not throw It away-mail it, too.

"IRENE" A Musical Comedy. By James Moe.,:orriery. Music by harry Tierney.

Lyrics by Joe McCarthy. Staged by Edward Royce

"Irene" is like a white clover field in full bloom under a hot sun, or like a field of wild, pink roses wet with an early morning spring rain, so different is it from the dreary waste of smelly trivialities of the current musical comedy stage, Let it be announced in the beginning that "Irene" is no relation to the lady with the same name who was the village queen and played on the "a-eordeen."

She is a shop girl combination of King Copehtua's beggar maid and Cinderella. the ash pile in this instance being situated over on Ninth-or maybe Tenth-avenyah. She goes on an errand for the boss down to a summer home on Long Island inet Freeport), and there meets with a fairy book adventure which will not be spoiled for anyone who will see It by be:ng retold here. But dear oll Tenth aven-jah will not be crowded out of lbs pizture by any Long Island estate, because "Irene" has an Irish mother, who tells bet-- out on the fisc escape to "be a good girl," and. when her suspicions are aroused that her daughter is lying to her about certain important questions of the "What time (Ed you get in?" order. Mrs. O'llare pails forth in a French gown to do police duty, only to find that her pride and joy is engaged to a millionaire in Long Island Instead of leading n double life in the chap suey belt in Manhattan. There are songs and dances. of course, interspersed in the action of the story, but the songs are tuneful and the dancing graceful, and the scenes sashay between Long Wand and Tenth avenyah with democratic impartiality.

1:cIP.h Day, in the title role, duplicates the success she made in "Go-ing Up," or rather doubles it. since she has twice as Watch to do in the current Montgomery piece. In fact she is on the stage almost all the time, with the result that the only criticism t...) rnale is that even too much et M:tts Itav Irlo much. She daaczs vosll. singo sweetly, and

• ocrasionaliy t itourb I rive the lyries a chance; is undeniably • prvtty, end. as the pritL, of Tenth avetr.,•ah, givco a cl-ar-eut, well studied • and exectitt d characterization. She is altogether charming, but a wee

bit ublquitoum. There in only oma man I co-sr heard of who lived ex-; elusively on honey and stood it. Eva rue': aal Gladys Milbr, as Irene's e. two friends and sister conspirators, are ala yery attractive, and. with • Bobbie Wallon, do the best dam:: number of the piece. Mr. Watson. a • clever, capable boy, pia)n the most nau '.'oui of all roles to a regular • man, a demi-niaie dressmal:er, and manages ti make it entirely unof-• • fensIve. Ile shares unquestionably in the success "Irene" is sure to • have, as does Walter 1‘....‘gan, who talks and acts like a real human being, • an extraordinary phenomenon in musical plays. Harry Tierney, who • wrote die music, is a former vaudeville actor. Bath tunes and lyrics, the

latter by Joe McCarthy, a writer of popular songs, are well done. and • core more one wonders how it is that the vaudeville magnates permit • every I'll of talent that looms up on the variety stage to be taken away • from them. • It Mims Day would only play the "ii -cortleen" everything would be • tine. But she won't, because it isn't being done thin season.- PATTElt-• • tN J A NI ES. •

F. RAY COMSTOCK AND MORRIS GEST Present

THE ROSE OF CHINA • A MUSICAL COMEDY •

By Guy Bolton Lyrics by P, Wodehouse. Music by Armand Vecsey.

Staged by Robert Milton and Julian Mitchell Scenes Designed and Painted by Joseph Urban

If scenery by Joseph Urban made a play "The Bose of China" WOIlld he a good on", because the ›etthngs th:s musical piece at the Eyrie are

charmingly- done. Unfortunately something else is required. and the

book of "The Rose of China" is as interesting as a semi-gelid river of

very thick molasses flowing hetween banks of primroses in heavy, full bloom. (Inc sits and waits for something to be borne along on the sur-

face of the eminently respectable bosont of the treacle that will distract

the mind from the appalling fact that it is treacle, but nothing a!,pear.:. Tleost• who possess what is highly valued in very small provincial com•

munities under the name of "innate refinement" will enjoy the produc-

tion thoroly, but those who like entertainment that ha.: fun and clever-ness as well as "niceness" will come away hungry and bored. To be

sure there are at least two pleasant bits of musle-described by the gen-

tleman behind me as "slick"-and the lyrics when they are intelligible

are bright. But the rest of it is as commonplace as tax bill:.

Jane Richardson, as Ling Tao, the Chinese maiden, sings sweetly. but her "pidgin" English is a more irritating counterfeit than Miss Pity

ltrilntrert original Impossible mannerisms of speech in "East Is West."

whieh have been obviously copied. In plays with a foreign atmosphere

charactr.s the players hould either speak the language of the coun-

try where t scenes are laid or the language of the country where tbe

piece is shown. Speaking with an Italian dialect in Italy or with a

Itainter:sh "pidgin" in China Is neither pleasant, artistic nor real.

Frank McIntyre, who made a fat hit in a fat part for a fat man in

"The Travelling Salesman." is just as fat as ever, but not nearly so te funny as then, but, perhaps, that is the tok's fault. There are au(hors

who hogtie a eomedian with restrictions on his initiative and demand

that he be funny in spite of them. It can not be done. A fun maker must have some scope for his activities.

Cecil Cunningham, from the vaudeville stage, has a certain crude

attractiveness, and. In her number with Mr. McIntyre, "On the Itanks of the Subway," shows her variety training. Vaudeville artists have

faults, but lack of vitality is not one of them, and Miss Cunningham is

at least alive. Oscar Shaw plays Tommy Tilton' acceptablv, and the rest of the company is good enough, but to quote the succinct criticism

of a very well known, intelligent and able comedian, now retired because of physical disability to (Let, and who aecompanied me to the show. "The Rose of China" is a "bloomer." However, it will i'lease those who adored the Eden Musee and who still enjoy a visit to tlie Aquarium--

THE PRINCIPLES OF PLAYMAKING By BRANDER MATTHEWS

•-•-•••-•-111-41-.0-0-41-414e•••-•1

The word "professor" is always reminiscent of the man who sits be-

hind a little table on a street corner writing with a fine Spencerian

hand calling cards, twenty-five cents for fifty, samples of chirographic

art. But since Dr. Matthews uses it himself. constantly, in referring to othor

men who lecture and write on the drama, surely he will not object if it

is applied to himself in this review of his book, recently published by

Charles Scribner's Sons. The essay on the principles of playmaking

occupy only a small portion of the hook, which contains papers on

• "Putting Literature Into the Drama," "Shaksperian Stage Traditions,"

• "The Pleasant Land of Scribia." "Hamlet Without Hamlet." "The Play-* wright and the Player." "The Simplification of Scenery," "The Conven-• • thins of the Music Drama.""The Vocabulary of the Show Business."

• "Matthew Arnold and the Theattr," and, the most interesting and read-

• able of all, some "Memories of Edwin Booth." All have a value, as has

• anything Professor Matthews writes. tho that value is more professrial

• than usual. When Professor Matthews gets down to brass tacks, leaves • Voltaire. Corneille, Sarcey. Lessing and all the others in the noble shades

• of erudition and says something of his own the aspirant to stage writ-

• ing finds some sound advice and sane suggestion.

• He says: "A good play must be well written, no doubt, hut before it

is written it must be well conceived and well developed; it must have a

• theme, it must have a story which reveals itself in a sequence of situa-• tions, and this plot must he peopled with human beings who look like hu-

• man beings, who talk like human beings and who act like human beings."

• One way to do this is to go to current theatrical successes again and • • again and again, study them analytically and synthetically, apply what

• you learn to your own brain child and you have made a beginning. The

• other steps to he followed are outlined and are worth reading, because

they are set forth as suggestions by a man who has great familiarity

-e with certain phases of the theater, who loves it and who gives his ail-

• vice kindly without the offensive dogmatism professors acquire from

• classroom domination. • (Inc wonders why Professor Matthews says nothing about the variety

• and the burlesque stage. For, whether they be the hunchback, crippled.

t illegitimate • brats of the stage or not, they are none the less its children

anti deserve attention on scientific and historical grounds. Besides, what è a palier Professor Matthews could write on Matthew Arnold's "Analysis

• of the Burlesque Theater," as made from observation of the contrasted • productions of the Beef Trust Watson School and the creations of the

Al Reeves type. • Charles Warren Stoddard once said that writers, like other men,

• died when their work was done, that there was no such thing as "pre-

. mature" takings off, and that the lament that if they had lived what • • wunilers they would have worked was simple bosh. It is the niore ten-

• able stand than Professor Matthews' when he decides that the riper

development of the American drama in the final years of the Nineteenth

Century was retarded by the premature deaths of Clyde Fitch and Wm.

Vaughan Moody. 110th died because, in the vocabulary of the show busincies-which, by the way, deserves a more thoro exposition than

Professor Matthews gives it-"they we're all washed tip."-PATTEItSoN

ONE REMEDY TO REMOVE THE UNREST Under the above head The Missouri Trades Unionist, of Joplin, Mo.,

November 26 issue, says:

"Unrest thruout the nation might be alleviated greatly by giving the

people more and better amusements at less cost than at present pre-

vails, a thing that Congress can eesily do. Remove the taxation from

the people's amusement, from show houses, from actors. and f"om other

luxuries of the roor people and the middle classes. Congress can re-

move this tax and lessen the burden on the show houses, which could

then give better shows for less money than at present. Remove the tax

on amusements and thus help furnish amusement and recreation for the working people at once."

SINGING DISTINCTLY The recent revival of the Gilbert & Sullivan operas suggests anew

two thoughts. One is the unfailing charm of their scores and librettos.

It Is a truism to say that no one nowadays wrUes such music, music that aticks in one's memory pleasantly and permanently. It has grace, charm

anti aimplicity, and it requires no elaborate musical education in order

to b.• appreciated. Perham, the term is inapplicable, bot there is a quality

in it which can be described only by the word "human," and that, per-

haps, in the secret of its longevity. Of the lyrics there is nothing to be

said. It has all been said lung ago. The phenomenal and almost rie-

ternatural dexterity of the rhyme is only surpassed by the fact that every

verse makes sen•te, has a point an-1 is sound idiomatic 1:nglish. Like the humor of Dickens, the fun of the Gilbert Jingles is undying not only be-

cause they bear the stamp of genuine genius, but also because the situa-

tions and conditions they so successfully satirized when they were writ-

ten still exist and will always exist.

There is one difficulty about their appreciation, and it lies in the

fact that they have to be sung articulateiy and heard intelligibly. One of

the most disappointing features of modern inusual camedy is that no

one ever pretends to actually articulate tho words of the lyrics. The actors

mouth them, anti if they do creep across the footlights at ail are instantly

drowned by vociferous orchestras, l'evers from the variety stage are

not so apt to offend in this particular as their fellows v:ho h: -.ve not had the training of the vaudeville theater, where distinctness of utterance

is an absolute essential to "getting over." It would be excellent training

for everyone who sings songs in musical productions to take a g ..aduate

course in (lilht.rt & Sullivan. If they can get out the full \•alue of songs

from "Pinafore" and "The Mikado" a diploma should be issued them.

There is some consolation, however, in the delciencv of clear pro-

nunciation ti, far as the lyrics of the contemporary musical shows go. Pew, if any, of them are worth either singing distinctly or listening to

patiently.-FINN MacCUMILIILE.

CONVERSION OF WAR RISK INSURANCE

From the' records, of the Treasury Department Bureau of War Risk

insurance it appears that only about twenty-five per cent of the men who

had insurance during the war are continuing to keep up their insurance.

This is largely due to the fact that the men were unfamiliar with the

act which made provision for the policien written on service men during

the w:-r to he continued as permanent Government insurance. or that

they have not felt financially aide to carry their Insurance at this time.

To avail themselves of the otlyertlInIti to convert their war risk in-

surance into permanent Uniteti States Government insurance It is nec-

essary that the men discharged from service. continue to pay their

monthly premiums, and at. some time during the live years following the

formal declaration of Y.eace that they convert into a is‘rtnanent

To guard against any man losing his right to Government Insurance

the Secretary of the Treasury recently issued a ruling allowing every

man eighteen months in which he has the opportunity to reinstate his

Insurance after lie has allowed it to lapse because of nonpayment of premiums.

This reinstatement privilege should be clearly understood. Fo long

as a man is not paying his premiums he is not insured. Ills reinstate-

ment privilege merely gives him the right to again have Government

Insurance without undergoing physical examination and upon payment of two months' premiums.

There are six forms of Government Insurance, as follows: 20-year endowment, 30-year t•ralownient, 2.0-payment life, 30-payment life, en-

dowment at age of 62, end ord!nary life. Whatever one of these forms

is chosen, there are many features which prominently- stand out in the

Government policy, and every former service man will do well to acquaint

himself with these features, full information of whlch may be obtained

by writing the Bureau of War Risk Insurance, Treasury Department. Washington, D. C.

THE EDITOR'S SAY

ON THE DOINGS OF THE DAY

PUBLIC AND REVIEWERS DIS-AGREE

How at times the public w Iii vio. lently (Bement even from the beat of r.-vie-worst has once more beea demon-strated by the fate of the big f •atures that have been running in the motion picture hOttiacti on Broadway for th. laet two weeks. Reviewers who ha.i seen "Male and Female" before its pub-lic exhibition condemned it and pre-dicted itts failure. (When I may "re. viewcre" I. (lo not mean the mon who' have to puff every picture because their salarier depend on It.) One well-known reviewer, with a reputation for candor, watt especially fwvere in his. condemnation and eapeeially cock-sure in his prophecy. Well, we all known what happened. "Male and Female," tho it aniply desso-ved ail the adverse criticism it brought down up-on itself, proved a bor-orice attrac-tion of the fleet clase.

AN l'NEXPECTF:D VERDICT

Now take on the other hand th, feature called "Eye"( of Youth." which ran last week at the Itivoll. At the private or sorni-pitlhlIC showing in the Astor Hotel all critics agroed, both privately and for publication. that it was a first-class attraction. Predic-tions as to its tremendous Lox-office value weir, freely made and ardor ex' tremely fancleul rentals were asked of exhibitors. (One of the latter faintest %glen he heard the rental price for - three days.) Now Dr. Itlesenfeld gave this play

a most gorgeous inuateal setting, pro-'s Id( 4 a brilliant preludo, with excellent singing, and advertised heavily. In niite of all the crowds persisted in staying away. The week's record must have been a keen disappointment, for the play lost conetantly'. Wedneoulay matinee, for instance, In volts of most favorable weather conditions, the house was alms et empty. The reason? I am sure I do not know. Spoolllation In post-mortems is idle. We must be Is:Attuned as faithful reporters with r•-• cording the verdict of the ouhn, F.,•ervono tote t draw his own conclu-sion.

WE CERTAINLY VIEW Truni ALARM

We are quite unable to underetand our Canadian exhibitors who are plead-ing for Federal (Canadian) eerie-m-11Np. These mob are much harassed by the provincial board", which they denounce. Justly no doubt, as narrow and In-tolerant. Censorehip is not a (lunation of geography, but etrictly a question of prinelple, find yott can not com-¡wombs'. with a principle. All forme of rensorship arm vielotiet and unworthy of the traditiona of a freedom-loving rare. If centiorebip is bad in the Prov• ince it can not be good in the Domin-

ion. 'Me Canadian laws, like those of England and our own country, provide 'dent y of ponlahnlerit for all who trans-gress the bounds of dereney, whether in word or In pirture or on the stage. Let 'quell tranegreimions be punished and puniehed with *II the severity the' law permit.. That is the American was.

PICKED UP ItY WAYSIDE

There are mighty few superfeatures

which will stand up as a complete pro-gram to the exclusion of weeklies, com-

edies and scenics. The people do like

und demand variety, especially in a

motion picture show.

¡'he idea that motion picture studios

are no better than cheese factories In

not quite correct, despite the fact that

many pieces of cheese are turned out

of such studios. The \Vall.Street ma-

nipulators who imagine there Is no art

In pictures, and that directors can be

hired like sandwich men, are a bit mis-

taken. Ince, Sennett, Marshall Sedan

and a few others will furnish the evi-

dence.

WE LEAD IN ACHIEVEMENTS

THE BILLBOARD was the first and only publication to protest against smuggled "ads" in features and comedies. We have been fighting this abuse single-handed for the last year.

RESULT: Exhibitors have waked up and formed an organization to protect their screens against this form of trespass on their property.

THE BILLBOARD has for the past year stood alone in giving active aid to exhibitors fighting for Sunday opening.

RESULTS: More motion picture houses open on Sunday than ever before.

LETTERS, Free, prompt and far-famed. the Mail

Forwarding Service of The Billboard stands alone as a safe and sure medium through which professional people may have their mail addressed. Thousands af performers and showfolk now receive their mail through this highly efficient department.

Mail is sometimes lost and mix-ups result because performers do not write plainly, do not give correct address or forget to give an address at all when writing for advertised mail. Others send letters and write address and name so near postage stamp that it is obliterated in eancelation by the post-office stamping machines. In such cases and where such letters bear no return address the letter can only be for-warded to Dead Letter Office. Help The Billboard handle your mail by corn; plying with the following: Write for mail when it is FIRST

advertised. The following is the key to the letter list:

Cincinnati (No Stars) New York One Star (•) Chicago Two Stars (••) St. Louis....Three Scars ('-•*) San Francisco (S)

If your name appears in the letter list with stars before it write ta the office holding the mail, which you win know by the method outlined -.bove. Keep the Mail Forwarding Depa ,tmant supplied with your route and mail will be forwarded without the necersity of advertising it. Postage is required only for packages—letter service is abso-lutely free.

Mail is heu i but thirty days, and can not be recovered after It goes to the Dead Letter Office.

Mail advertised in this issue was un-called for up to last Sunday noon. All requests for mail must be signed by the party to whom mail is addressed.
