At the Shubert

The way in which Lulu treated her hus- band in the amusing farce 'Lulu's Hus7 bands" is not unlike the treatment ac- corded young Astor Chanler by his wife, the bewitching prima donna Lima Cava- lieri.

broke every house record previously
established, and even through the
Lenten season, the worst in all the
year in New York, packed and jam
med the big Hudson Theatre when
many of the other houses had closed
for this period.
1t is no more than fitting that the
man who wrote THE Lion and the
Mouse" should come back and write
another play that Is even greater
than its famous preuecessor--the
story of how a young girl, unaided
and alone, with nothing to assist
her but a woman's wit and ingenuity,
fights single handed against the pow
erful influence of the police and
wins.
Marion kerby, in the role of the
girl, illustrates the highest reach of
emotional acting, and that the select
ing of Miss kerby for this part was a
master-stroke for Mr. Harris, the
producer, was best shown by the ex-
cellent criticisms accorded her work.
Alfred Moore, about whom little
can be said that is not already known,
in the part of Captain Clinton, who,
with tireless energy for seven long
hours, subjects his victim to a tor
ture that can only be compared with
those of the Spanish Inquisition,
again demonstrates his value as an
actor of unusual ability.

ONE OR MORE NORMALS
Judge Burnett Says Good Word for
the School at Monmouth.

Judge George H. Burnett, of Sa-
lem, now serving temporarily in the
circuit Court for Multnomah County,
IS much interested in the campaign
Delhg made under the initiative to re-
store Monmouth to its former status
as a state normal school with fixed
appropriation. Judge Burnett said
yesterday:
II goes without saying that the
state will maintain the public school
system. The question is, shall it be
allowed to stagnate or degenerate,
shall we revert to the old-time type Of
schoolmaster, whose sole equipment
was the three Rs and the prowess to
whlp the big boys, or shall we have
framed teachers and keep abreast of
the times i'll progress and improve
mentY The state may with profit in
more ways than one train its teachers,
not IN the sense of instructing them in
an occupation pursued solely for pri-
vate gain, but with the end in view
that they directly serve the public and
that the public has a right to secure
the best service. Hence public senti-
ment is favorable to some normal
school.
" AS to which one or what ones of
such schools are to be chosen, if any,
the issue is before the people and will
probably be solved in way that will
most likely divorce the question from
politics and logrolling.
Considering its accessibility from
all parts OF the state, its traditions
and surroundings as a school town
and the fact that the state has already
invested there large amount of mon
ey more than in any other normal
school, and that, too, in permanent
brick buildings, it is fair to presume,
without disparagement to any other
school, that motives of economy as
well as the desire to improve public
education will induce the tax-paying
voter to give his preference to Mon
mouth if he wants only one normal
school,
"But the whole question, to have
one or none or many is before the peo-
pie and they must decide for them
selves. '-Oregonian.
