SADORA Duncan, Americas high
fad. Not content with setting Eu-
rope on edge with her bare-legged ex-
positions of Terpsichore's art, she now
proposes to take up the teaching If
children to dance a la Duncan, after
they have renounced every other ca
reer.
when I am rich 1 shall rebuild the
Temple of Pastum and open college
Of priestesses, a school of the dance.
shall teach an army of young girls
who will renounce, as I have, every
other career. The dance is a religion
and should have its worshipers," she
announces.
Perhaps it is to amass the wealth
to realize this dream that the American
priestess of "the poetry of motion" has
opened school in Grunewald, su-
burb of Berlin, to teach the German
"madcap" the graces of manner, the
natural freedom of limb and muscle
and the rythmic Interpretation of
poetry and song that made the old
Greek choral dancing the golden ago
of the art.
Situated in dense piny forest, this
school which is built on the noble
lines of Greek temple, breathes the
very spirit of antiquity, though here
and there are traces of italian art.
From the rising bell at 1880 a. m. to
retiring time at the early hour of 8,
the titled and aristocratic pupils Of
1sadore Duncan are given a training
that will fit them to shine in society,"
physically as we'll as mentally.
The curriculum is much the same as
that of the ordinary German boarding
school, though never for an instant is
forgotten the desire Of the principal to
realize the grace of motion of the an
clent Greeks.

Ct1O IGO-SllidAAoi SAAA SN
EW YORK has passed through the
M opening of another theatrical sea-
/ Y son, and judging from reliable re-
ports the most ardent Los Angeles de-
votee of the drama need feel no disap-
pointment over missing the latest offer
ings of his favorite art. Apparently 1t
IL the most dismal outlook for years.
Many things have failed utterly. Nat
Goodwin's play, 1.-THE Beauty and the
Barge" Of which SO much was expected,
has been withdrawn from the boards.
Scarcely a spark Of genius is discov-
erable in the mass of material thrown
upon the market. Managers are heroic
ally striving to create a false interest
in their wares through the medium of
the press agent. Every week every
dramatic editor receives through the
mail an enormous batch of correspon-
dence 'boosting" plays and actors
Every star in the country and every
manager is represented by some person
whose duty 1t Is to get just as much
''hot air" as possible into print. There
is an army of press agents and they fire
their stories hot and heavy upon every
newspaper in the country even though
the people they represent do not ex-
pect to leave New York city for years.
That is the manner in which geniuses
are made in these days. And these
''geniuses" strive to live up to their
regulations so conscientiously and sin
cerely and take themselves SO seriously
that 1t seems uncharitable that the Lord
should withhold from them the "divine
fire" which once or twice in genera
tion makes an artist truly great
But to return to the present season in
the metropolis, the New York papers
have found many occasions for severe
remarks. AS an example Of healthy,
well constructed "roast" here is the
manner of leading off a criticism
printed in the Evening Post concerning
a play called MARY and john:
"In such a hopeless case as that of
the unlucky Mary and John,' q, three
act COMEDY offered in the Manhattan
theater last evening, the least said the
better. AS a matter Of fact, there is
nothing in particular to say. A more
vacuous entertainment it would be diff
cult to imagine. 1t contained nothing
to excite interest, indignation or ap-
proval, but most monotonously on
plane Of innocent but deadly dullness
and of Stiffness unutterable Briefly, it
may be described as kindergarten
drama by novice. Manifestly, there
fore, it is not subject for serious con-
sideration."
That is a sample of the existing
phrases in the New York dramatic
columns this fall. Hall Gaines newest,
1.-THE Prodigal Son." was treated very
roughly in the reviews. and George
Ade's bad Samaritan. an innocent
gleeful affair, alleged by the press
agents dope to be in 1.-THE authors
happiest vein," was handled as though
It were a thing accurst. John Drew in
"De Lancey" and Miss Maxine Elliott
in "Her Great Match" were passed
over lightly, although it was limited
that these two popular players were
wasting their personal charms in, to
say the least, extremely conventional
plays.
Altogether the geographical position
of Los Angeles in the theatrical world
may not be so unfortunate as 1t at first
appears.

Teaching Little Princesses TO Dance

swaying limb or joyous. unrestrained
motion of arm and hand and body.
These children frequently illustrate
the ancient descriptive dances of
Greece. Though Miss Duncan does
not sing herself, she Is training them
in the old tragedies and chorals which
she studied at their fountain head
Athens.
This is new departure for Miss
Duncan. She has hitherto held 10
monopoly of the dance interpretive,
and has made much money therefrom.
She started in this, her native land.
and though each Interpretation" had
to be diagnosed and explained, the
rich took her up and she was in great
demand. Then she went abroad, and
London and Paris bowed before the
bare feet and graceful tunic-olad form
of the young American. Isadora Dull
cans dancing was the topic Of the
studios rather than-of the streets, and
her interpretations of Ovid and Omar
Khayyam were said to be poetry per-
sonified.
A Hit in Germany
Then she went to Germany From
the kaiser down society became in
terested in her beauty and grace. Wo-
men of the high nobility postured
barefooted and tunic clad, striving to
live up to Miss Duncan's theory that
the perfect dance must be learned of
the winds and waves and trees. Russia
succumbed and her popularity knew
no bounds.
Then, in an evil hour, Miss Duncan
took her Greek dances to Athens
itself-and met her first rebuff. 1t is
evident that the modern Grecian needs
someone to instruct him in this once
national glory. When she visited the
capital and appeared on the streets
clad in the costume Of the Greek maid
en- of old she excited most unpleasant
attention. Now that she is back in
Germany, however, all is well again.
