The FAMILY THEATER.

The bill at the Family theatre for
the early week will be a novelty en-
tertainment as well as novel one.
Comedy has not been neglected in
the selection, as Manager Wallis first
and foremost mission is to make
folks laugh. -
DE Velda and Zelda are artistic
equilibrists, presenting their work
with view to pleasing pantomine
effects rarely cultivated by this class
Of performers.
Lane and Fay are singing a duo
with a trunk full of laurear wreaths,
collected from the various high class
vaudeville houses throughout the
country. 49,
Harry Lake has an unusual nov
city act In which he collaborates
with a dummy, and manages the
mimic man so well one can scarcely
realize he is inanimate. The action
is equally divided between the real
man, and the make+bellsge, in the
slSit.
Bla, k-faced comedy Is put across
the plate by Eddie Boyd, and Eddie
has fashion OF making a home run
calculated to place Ihim with the
big leaguers If he followed base ball
instead OF the boards.
High and Phantom games will be
an innovation to DE tried out by the
Vailoptograph, and the illustrated
song will be handled by the clever
soprano OF the Family theatre staff.

TO eliminate all danger of the
sort, he is tracking the classy pro-
ductions to their lair right now,
and already on the pages or the '09-
10 season loom up such names as
Ro-- sh- we have promised TO
keep them locked in the innermost
recesses of cur heart, but anyhow,
they looked almost too good TO be
true. One thing is certain, if
dreams do come true, the Grand
will be the hub of the social wheel
in Marion, next winter, and will
keep II whirring apart from its pink
tea and lavender luncheon phases;
with this commendable feature, that
the drama gives food for thought,
serious and problematic thought,
which is what the prescribed and
prescribed social function does not
do. An evening OF kaleidoscope life
wherein the vital incidents are
flashed across the minds eye in ae-
centuated form, affords less time TO
dwell upon the clothes and clatter
of ones neighbors, and more time
for the drawing together and focus
ing OF the big threads that go to
make up the life fabric of the world
about us. Manager Sullivan IS to
be congratulated upon his creditable
handing of an almost impossible
suituation, out OF which he carved
a goodly slice OF ''tastely" theatrical
pie.
AL the Family theatre, NIarion's
popular little home of vaudeville,
there have been some very good acts,
some very bad acts, and some acts
right up on the fence ready to top
pie either way as the wind llsteth.
The patrons of popular priced at
traction are invariably good-natured,
prone to acceptance rather than re-
lection, and when Manager Vail
was unfortunate enough 10 draw the
acid fruit OF the profession, they
carefully concealed their hammers,
smiled optimistically, and came to
get laugh from the next bill. And
they Invariably found what they
were looking for. The management

weighed in the balance, we are
confident the good would send the
bad soaring, locally at least, espe-
cialiy when one considers the tram
mels foisted upon Manager Sullivan
at the onset OF his hareer as presid-
ing genius of the Grand box office.
Getting into the theatrical game,
when all the booking offices have
given their choicest bits to clamoring
young robin managers across coun-
try, and only the fag end of the
drama remains, is not conducive to
bursts of popular applause, nor piled
mp heaps of gold in the house till.

crumbs from beneath the more for
tunate managers table is entirely
too "gamey" for comfort, much less
profit, and next season, Mr.. Sullivan
doesn't propose TO impair his eye

with the impetus in the matter of
increased finance, lately added to
the National Vaudeville Managers
Association, and the acquiring of
hosts of real artists aud artistic
timbre by the Sun circuit, the COM
ing season should be a real live
one. Manager Vail says, swatch

1t is an incongruous but infallibe
fact that those who see show on
I-paper." are the headers of the
anvil chorus against 1t, it's most
severe, most implacable critics.
Whether or not this applies TO the
press may better be referred to the
managers. but certainly 1t should be
the policy of the press at all times
to boost rather than lwield the
hammer, where boosting can be ac-
complished with integrity of state
ment. wherefore with perfect in
tegrity, as a composite entertainment
1T has been good season.

the troupers for whom they spell
"home," and the basement ones are
donning cement floors and walls of
steel screen plastered with more Of
the fireproof stuff.
When one considers that the real
player, Is an artist, the wonder Is
they can come from sucn sordid sur
roundings as characterize the aver
age dressing room, into an atmos-
phere demanding the most sensitive
of temperaments for convincing por-
trnyals. Comfort is one of the big
words in the Grand vocabulary dur
ing the big spring house-cleaning-
comfort and FIREPRooF, with the
accent on the fireproof.
A pleasing effect has been OBJ
tanned for the motion pictures at the
Family theatre by placing the white
screen toward the center OF the stage
and giving it a frame of artistic
scenery, "woodsy" in theme, with
graceful draperies cutting off the
sharp edges. The realism of the
pictured motion is immeasureably
heightened by the pretty setting.
No people on earth love TO laugh,
or fDd SO many excuses for so doing,
as the Americans. Perhaps this has
drawn down upon as the criticism
often offered that we are given to
buffoonery and blare, when in truth
we are only having innocent fun and
allowing our natural tendency to
laugh to run It's course. Thus 1t
comes about that America is the
home OF minstrelsy. We like It all,
from the brass band and gaily uni
formed rank, which parades our main
street on minstrel day, to the pow
dered wig and blackfaced comedy OF
the show itself. We are responsive
to the swing of the snappy up-to-
now music, and conyulsed over the
quick wit and repartee. Even the
elaborate electric and spectacular ef-
fets are spurs to our general buoy
ancy of spirit.

In this connection it is interest
ing to relate that Joseph Pulitzer
the owner of the newspaper, The New
York World, which offered the $l0-
900 prize for the Fulton Flight air
ship contest, male only one request
in connection with the execution OF
the plans. He pointed ont that this
event would be OF such an epochaA
nature that an opportunity should be
provided for people of all ranks and
kinds to witness tho f.ght OF the
aerial armada.
He suggested that IL the race course
was laid out to begin at the very
northernmost extremity OF the city
1t would mean an expense to many
who ought to see II; and it would
involve needless crowdlng and conse
quent discomfort and disappoint-
ment
Therefore he asked that the course
of the race be planned 80 that the
ships be Obliged 10 traverse as much
OF the length of Manhattan Island
as possible. In this manner he deem
ed 1t possible that the people In all
