New York, Sept lS.-John Drew in
a new play and new show at the Hip
podrome are theatrical ANIMALS here in
September. We have them this week.
Drew might well be nicknamed Glass

that's too long for glib use, cut ii down
10 initials and call him G-o-f-m-o-f;
and no joke intended. either: for the
point l would make is that. while he is
a model for modisn gentlemen in poise
and toilet. he stands for sufficient pro-
fessional dignity TO be an appropriate
successor OF Edwin Booth as president
of the Players club. His variations in
aspect from year 10 year have been no
fnore than the changes in tailors fash
ION plates demanded. except that he has
shaved off his moustache or let it grow
out. thus making his upper lip topic
of keen conjecture. This time he wears
a mOuStache not only, but a beard, too.
In the comedy of Jack Straw" he is
one of the many unendowed princes of
Pomerania. and his Guest of fortune
IN America has sent him back across
the Atlantic 10 England with no moss
gathered on his rolling stone except
beard. John Drew with whiskers, Peo-
pie accustomed 10 his quite or almost
bare face are amazed TO see a plainly
false beard on him. That is necessity
of the plot. for he is & restaurant waiter
with his royal identity concealed. That's
the singularity of Jack Straw" by w.
Somerset Vaughan.
One OF the severe tests of social cul-
trre In New York hotels and restaur-
ants comes of that confusing fashion of
dressing walters exactly like many of
the eating and drinking men whom they
serve. The calm reserve of the mental
in his frontage of white linen, and his
cutaway backing of black wooden, is
just what the patron would like 10
achieve. but can't take the time and
thought away from his business to mas
ter; and so the man who gives the tips
is shamed often by the man who takes
them. Now. John Drew Is frequenter
of New York's fashionable places of
gastric pleasure. and l watched his de-
pertinent as waiter TO detect points
Of difference between the man presum-
ably a gentleman and the man who pre-
sumably is not. OF course, Drew might
exaggerate the mannerisms of a waiter.
az is done laughably in "Divorcons,"
but he chooses not to. and his demean-
or at the dinner in Jack Straw is a
variant os the diners in the upward
direction of sedative poise instead of
downward toward neuritic uneasness.
That is TO say. his waiter is veritable
Sir Charles Coldstream in stage pro-
traiture. while the men he serves. al
though not American but English, make
you dread that, next minute. they'll lay
down forks and spoons to take up
knives. Drew might be funnier Il he
caricatured his bogus waiter. but l
won't say that he ought to. BY and
by. though when this play gets TO the
stock companies. 1 shall expect the
leading actors 10 become low comedians
in the starting act of this play.
The hard-up Jack Straw is no shirk
of work. He takes the clothes and job
of a London restaurant waiter, and is
