 "ouo vadis" at McDonald's
 A production of "Quo vadis'' comes to McDonald's Theatre Tuesday for matinee and night performances The famous hook has been so universally read that the dramatization of it Is welcomed. The version of the play follows the book closely and deals with the subject in a reverent spirit, thereby earning the plaudits, not only of the press and gen. eral public, but of the clergy and the conservative element
 The stage settings are said to be elaborate and present the extrayagantly furnished Roman palaces In remarka- bly, realistic manner. The scenic effects are said to form a fitting back ground for some very capable acting, the com pany presenting Quo Vadis" being an exceptionally strong one. That "all the world loves lover,'' was never more Bconclusively proven than in the case of vinicius and Lygia, whose pretty love story of the play while sombre, is lighted up by good comedy and a happy termina- ton. "Qou Vadis' is one of the most popular productions on the road. The burning of Rome is subject which has inspired both painters and moralists.
 The one for the artistic opportunities it affords magnificent views and colorings; the other, for the lessons 1t conveye to humanity. The power of the Gods of Rome, disappeared with its flames and the beginning of the Christian era, be- came more marked upon the death of the tyrant, Nero. The absorbing interest of the many stirring incidents which led up | to the great connagration. and the beau tiful story of the Dawn of Christianity
 have been fttingiy embodied in the great | novel, Quo Vadis." The book has at- l tained an unprecedented popularity. and | its dramatization was only natural
 sequence of its reception by the reading
 public.
 I The play is built along the lines of the book. and is full of stirring scenes and l intense situations, naturally the interest | of the story is immeasurably enhanced | by the correctness and beauty of elabo- | rate surroundings. B. J. Carpenter, who presents this scenic spectacle of "Quo 1 Vadis" here claims that he has spared l neither time nor expense in equipping his | production with the most complete and
 realistic furnishings.

Archie Boyd's new piay Vermont" Is being produced in the New England States and receiving strong approbation from the people whose manners and cus- toms are reproduced in this rural story of New England. Archie Boyd's charac- terization is said to place him as higf in public favor as the late James A. Herne, who enjoyed a great vogue In New England. There is much similarity in their methods and appearance, and RoXd'a new play Is well suited to him.
