ITO the untutOred in meteorology
the position of observer in the
United States Weather Bureau is
apparently a sinecure. But were
the novice TO follow the observer and
his assistants in days round OF du-
ties he would probably be convinced
that something was really being done
at the Weather Bureau
Observations are taken i'm every bu-
reau twice a day, every day in the year
at precisely the same moment That
moment is a. m. and p. m. seventy

The elements observed, recorded. and
reported to be charted for the use of the
observer I'm preparing the forecasts are:

There are times when am sorry
that money is such power in this
world One OF the times was when /
heard that william Norris. the alto
gether deiectabIe Barry of 4 Country
Girl. had signed with Hamlin &
Mitchell for "Babes in Toyland."
J was quite aware Of the fact that
Norris. whom / remember first as the
English dude some six years ago. at

After creating tho Jester in In the Pal

born in New York CITY. was educated
on the other edge of the continent. in

1850. which by many critics is thought
10 be the direct progenitor of Shake
speare's comedy.
A few years after his death the title
was occasionally changed. The comedy
was acted in 1923 under the name of
'MaIvolio." In Charles rs copy Of the
second folio he has put his pen through
the original heading Of the play and has
written over II "Maivolio.' as IL he him
self had seen it performed under that
name.
For more than two centuries critics
and commentators had conclusiveIv
demonstrated to their own and to one
anothers satisfaction that Twelfth
Night, If not actually the last. was GER
tainiy one Of the last. Of Shakespeare
plays. and that, therefore. II should be
located somewhere about the year 1911.
But in 1928 Collier. deIving among the
musty records Of antiquity or in the
'wormholes OF old time" discovered
stored away IN the British Museum. a
manuscript which proved the play to
have been acted IN 1901. and then GER
tainly not for the first time On return
ing 10 his chambers he made an entry
OK the evenings proceedings in his diary.
and this y what he wrote:
At our feast wee had a play called
Twelfth Night: or, What You Will

'Menechnni in Plautus. but most like

A Master of Dialects.

George Beban. the actor who scored
"a success second only 10 that OF Marie
Cahiu ct tiIe Columbia Theater last
week. proved himself n master Of
French dialect in addition 10 being a
capable comedian. Mr. Beban's success
in mastering the dialect is accredited
by him TO continual study or French
people. and their mode Of speaking the
English language.
Il have studied many dialects said
Mr.. Beban one evening last week, "but
discarded that for stage purposes, as
1 soon learned that. properly used, the
dialect is almost unintclhgible to most
people The French dialect affords the
most opportunities for character work.
and so ] determined to give my at
tention to it exclusively While living
I'm San Francisco some years ago / was
brought into contact with many nation
alities, particularly the French, and /
used TO initiate these interesting
people-often to my sorrow, as they
would frequently fly into rage
at my impertinence. This however,
afforded me good chance 10
study their Compartments, and. with the
dialect, I acquired many of their man
nerisms, often unconsciously, and never
dreaming that the time would come
when l should have usebfor the lesson
learned Since then. when studying a
dialect, l have made il n rule TO ind
some one in real life and initiate him.
In playing the part I would always pic
ture this person in my mind and fig
ure out just how he would act under
similar circumstances.
while playing at the Buffalo EXPOSE
ton, in the summer Of 1901, I boarded
at a little French restaurant In an OBJ
scqre section of the city, and one that
was owned by a Partisan woman who
served about the worst table d hote this
side of Havre. The hostess had a dialect
that, had IL been German, would have
driven Weber and Fields a mile into the
tall timbers. However, 1 stuck II out
for the summer, and succeeded in aC-
curing great deal of atmosphere and.

power Of filthy lUcre- To my mind the
only redeening trait about Babes IN
Toyland is the fact that 1t plays in

There is nothing to it," is the cry
OF those critics who have spoken TO re
about the show. And am fain 10 agree
with than.
But surely Victor Herberts music is
