 'seThe Man Who Stood still'' aims to produce the effect of photographic if delity to the life that it undertakes to depict. That life, in the play, is the life of New York City's East Side Dis trict; and the theme is the process of that is constantly going on and which is making the foreign born a part of the vast community that we call the republic. MT. Mann's own role is that of a typical Bourbon-an old Swiss jeweler who refuses to float with the tide of progress, and is left behind in busi- ness, in thought, in social life, and at length, even in his domestic relation ships. The role is described as offering this well-liked actor ample opportunity for the display of the versatility that has long been asserted in his behalf by himself and his many warm friends. The seat sale for MT. Mann's engagement starts Tuesday morning.
 THE CLANSMAN A Word From Colonel Watterson. The attraction at Jeckson's next Saturday matinee and evening will be years past, the press of the entire 1 country has published more about this play than has probably ever been writ l ten before about any other drama. l The play does it's own advertising. | The appeal of ."The Clansman" is so great that nothing can stop it's full | tide of success. Even those who do 1 not agree with it's sentiments are com l pelled to acknowledge it's tremendous power. The Louisville Courier-JournalI 1 had a neat little comment on the at | titude of some papers that are not | published in the South. Some of the 1 Fla stern papers have seen fit to say caustic and scurrilous things about | The CIansman.' May it not be true | that MT Dixon's play gets under the hide and stings?" The seat sale com Wednesday morning.
