the EAT Err.
The Columbia.

The eishth week Of the Columbia Stock
Companyss most successful season opened
last night. with the presentation before 9
large and distinguished audience OF Henry
Arthur Jones' delightful comedy. Joseph
Entangled." It was the benefit night Of
the Washington Choral Society, and the
house was crowded from pit to dome with
the members OF the organization and their
friends. who repeatedly manifested their
warm appreciation Of the play. Mr.. Jones
is one of the best-known English play
wrights, being the author Of Mrs Danes
Defense" s'The Case of Rebellious Susan"
1.-THE Liars and other comedies that have
achieved wide success. Joseph Entangied
Is not the least attractive OF the produc-
lions of his pen. He has cleverly mag
most terrific scandal. the SNOWFALL progress
of an initial white lie being hedged about
by most iimusing situations.
AS Sir Joseph, the society man and lady
killer who labors manfully to save the rep
utation of the woman he loves, Mr.. Stand
ing was at his best. John Mason made the
comparatively small part OF Jermyn Pye-
croft, blase London clubman, very inter-
esting, indeed the character standing out
most distinctly, sketched In. as 1t were, by
the art of which Mr.. Mason Is a master
Miss Hammond was convincing as Lady
Verona, an insoucfant and lovable young
woman, who, through no fault OF her own,
finds herself in most compromising stu
alton. George Castor. as Prof. Tof1eid,
made a decided hit in comedy vein, his lu-
dicrous eccentricity keeping the audience
in high good humor every moment he was
visible. Malcolm Duncan and Anne john
son as Mr. and Mrs. Lavender, Mr. Cromp-
ton and Jeffreys Lewis as Mr.. and Mrs.
and Dorothy Hammack as Lady Fanmere
were excellent in their respective roles.

s'No Admittance" Invitations.

To the Editor OF The star:
Are we of the present century instead OF
ascending the scale of advanced civilization
as regards mans courtesy to man. rapidly
degenerating into Indifference leading to
an inexcusable lack of consideration for
others? This reflection is suggested by
personal experience Monday evening. A
young lady of my acquaintance sent me an
invitation which stated that The grad
uating class of Washington Business High
School requests your presence at its COM
mencement exercises" When I presented
the card at the door l was informed that
l must have seat tickets or keep out.
Imagine my embarrassment, much more
that of the young lady who sent me the
invitation when I made known to her the
circumstances. 1t appears that. each mem
Der of the class was given greater num-
Der of invitations than tickets, which Is
usual, but that adnittance permitted
by ticket only which is most unusual !
have been to many commandments, but
never before to one where, though my
presence was requested / was shown the
street when l presented my card. Tickets,
as l have always understood the arrange
ment, are for specified floor seats, whereas
invitations are permits to standing room
and gallery seats.
1t was not the young lady's fault by any
means that I was shown such inexcusable
disceurtesy. The graduates were not in
formed that admission was by ticket only
until after they had sent out all their In
vitations. 1t was then explained that the
invitations were to be sent to friends and
relatives "out of toWn''-that is, so far
away that 1t would be almost impossible for
them to accept if they wished. Suppose,
however, some of these "out of town"
friends should accept the request for their
presence" and go to Inconvenience and ex-
pense to be present at the exercises only
to be told they must have tickets get
out.
The writer has no definite idea as to who
Is to blame for such an absence of ordi-
nary courtesy, whether the principal of the
school, the faculty or the class officers. but
surely there is most deplorable condition
In the management of affairs which ought
to be remedied before another class Is
given the unfortunate opportunity to COM
NIT such grave mistake.

certainty whether the craft was in Mary
land or District waters. The authorities
ascertained that the boat was in Maryland
waters. SO the deputy marshal went there
and arrested her. She was placed aboard
the police boat and brought to the city, the
deputy marshal not desiring to land her
on Virginia soil.

Not "Christians."

To the Editor Of The Star:
In The Stars outdoor bulletin Monday in
referring to the Jewish massacres occurred
the phrase "only six Christians were
killed. II this referred to those who at
tackled the Jews. I protest against the use
Of the word Christian" No matter what
name such murderers give themselves. they
do not deserve the name Christian. A
Christian is, to say the very least. one who
tries to follow Christ. Nothing is further
from the example OF Christ than the ac-
items of that Russian mob.
