At REHlEARSALS.

When David Belasco rehearses
one of his companions in a play
that part of the work in which
he takes most interest Is the light
ing. At rehearsals of ga Grand
Army Man, he spent a great deal
more time and attention upon an
electrician known as "Louis the
Light Man" than be did upon
David Warfield. or course, it might
be said by friends of Warfield,
that the light man needed more
instruction than Warfield did but
other managers have been known to
try to reach the rudiments of act
ing to good actors.
Augustus Thomas is dramatist
whose rehearsals are things of
beauty and joys forever. No actor
or actress who have ever served
in Thomas play and has re.
ceived the Thomas instructions ever
will forget them No matter how
many times the scene has beer run
discouraged any of the members
of the company are Thomas' op-
timism clears away the clouds.
Glen MacDOnough says in private
life many things that are much
funnier than those which he puts
into the libretti of the musical
comedies and the extravaganZas
which he writes At rehearsals he
is funny. To an actor, who in try
ing to light cigaret, was so awk
ward with his fingers that he
burned himself. MacDonoueh said
politely: "What are you wearing
your knuckles for today?"
Weber and Fields furnished an
example Of another sort. In that
organization everybody was friendly
until the advent of Charles Bige-
low. Peter Daley started the trou-
BILE by referring to Bigelow as the
"hairless comedian He asked
Bigelow If there was anything he
could do for him in the theater.
''You can attend to your own work
and I'll attend to mineo Bigelow
answered. and then DALEY began
to sDread story which was TO the
effect that Bigelow, actuated by
motives OF economy, used to carry
y dog with him en- tour so that
he would be refused admission to
hieh class and high priced hotels
Few dramatists have the sway
lat rehearsals which is enjoved by
CLYDE Fitch He not only rehearses
the comDanies which appear in his
plays. but he often insists upon
being permitted to select the men,
hers of those companies.
Henry w. Savage rules rehearsals
with n stenoerapher at his side
During the intervals between the
times that he Is actually engaged
in directing the work which is
beng done upon the stage he is die
tating letters and kilograms which
relate to his theatrical or real es-
tate enterprises. Savage has habit
OF calling all his employees by
| their first names. This popularity
1 has led some of them into think
ing that they were stronger with
him than they really were.
Actors and actresses who are en-.
gagged by Amelia Bingham have the
advantage of rehearsing society
plays in society environment and
with society atmosphere Miss

The first showing of the mllli.
merry lmportatlons for the spring
demonstrates two important facts
the mber and variety of
shapes and the practical absence
of the much overdone mushroom
type. A few dropping brims are
seen, but ever these are not of
the aggressive type that we pro-
badly all felt growing a bit mono.
tonous a change from which the
newer models are practically free.
Broadly speaking, the descrip-
tion may read, "higher crowns
aud narrower brims." The so.
called large hats have not the
great brlm width of many of the
winter models, though it is pre-
dicted that by midsummer the
brims will have again extended.
1t is one thing, to proclaim that
small hats are the thing, and it is
another u persuade the woman of

that certain sweeping orim line

shown, some of them in the mod
erately small box.turban shape,
but the wider Spanish turban is
more generally becoming, parti.
cularly to face that has attained
the dignity of expression of mid
dle-age. Oace upon time, when
a woman's gownlng was suppos

the fourth ten mile stone bad

ally accepted fact that, except IN
rate cases, a small hat Is less
kind to the face than is a larger
model. 1t seems that only posi-
tive and aggressive youth mey

less hat and dare glaring light
and the gaze of critical eyes. II

There is still but one best, and
the difference is ten gallons De.

A new word has come up in
pant; 1t is strong. Strong paint
goes further and wears longer;
weak paint takes more gallons
and wears.out sooner.
The proper cost of a 10 gallon
job is $50. Paint that takes IL
gallons makes 1T $50. Paint that
takes II gallons makes 1t 500.
PANT that takes 13 gallons makes
it 500. PANT that takes 20 gal
