A N U S EN- e Mt s..
Belasco.

Those whose taste harks back to the old
English comedies may find much to point
to for the benefit of the twentieth CEN
fury theatergoer In Goldsmith's five-act
comedy, ''She Stops to Conquer" as
presented by the Ben Greet players at the
Beias.o Theater last night. True, just
appreciation Of its merits as we'll as o.
Its portrayal neceSsitates some concept, on
OF the atmosphere and spirit of the days
when the man was the peacock and the
woman basked in gentler mOdesty and
charm. But even with a lack Of this
conception one fees grateful. when the
performances closes, that there was q
time and in 1t there were accomplished
authors who found plots of interest and
pleasant Amusement IN otner phases Oh
numan experience than the everlasting
problems Of vice and such like SO fire.
quently offered to deprave the taste of
me present day.
That there are those, and many of them
too, who find satisfied amusement in
those English comedies, with their pom
poslty of speech and their graceful chlv-
airy and gentfli.y. IS proved by the
audiences that invariably greet good pres
entations of them. Such was the audience
at the Belasco last night.
She StOOps to Conquer is one of the
theatrical Classics of the days gone by.
SO smooth was the performance
throughout last evening that only the
histrionic vivisectionist would be apt to
PICK out the pre-eminently good features
of the play, or lay bare what his acute
Judgment might declare a shortcoming.
The careful training of the players for

ton was evident in every role.

pc arance than in reality. Mr.. Greet him.
self preserved the traditions of the role.
even though denied the youthful build
that might seem more consistent with the
part. Violet Vivian made a charming
Kate Hardcastle, and no less good to look
upon was Grace Halsey Mills as Con-
stance. Both were natural and con-
vincing. Dallas Anderson was quite ade
quate to the role of Charles, as was
Charles Hopkins to the role of George.
AS Mr.. Hardcastle the man who was
taken for and treated as an innkeeper
in his own home, j. Sayer Crawley was
all that could be desired. Percival Sey
mour was Diggory not to be forgotten,
and Ruth Vivian's presentation of the
eccentric old Mrs. Hardcastle gave a
character impersonation that won its
rank in the appreciation of the audience
by the laughter and applause bestowed
from time to time. The remaining play
ers each deserve commentator for care

At the conclusion of the regular business
President James ". Dyre, introduced
Charles c. Lancaster, president of the
Citizens Northwest Improvement Asso-
citation, who was guest of the as
ISOLATION. He delivered a short address
complimenting the association on the ac-
ton it had taken with reference to the
playground appropriation and called at
tention to the great necessity for q ma
tional convention hall, which had recent
ly been indors-d by several of the as

appropriate S3COO,0DO for the construction
of the building, which would be for the
American people from every state in the
Union. to be used for holding large con-
ventions. He spoke Of the advantages
to be gained by the formation of a
central organization, composed of the
various associations throughout the Dis
trict, which could discuss matters con-
Iernlng the entire city.
The association took a summer recess

Provision for Driveway.

BY following out these plans, a drive
way and sidewalk would be provided on the
north side of Cedar street. but in order
to do this it would be necessary to re-
move the buildings and condemn the
land on the south side of Cedar street
from the terminus Of the Brightwood
electric cars to the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad tracks. 1t would also be neces-
sary to set the B. and o. waiting sta
ton back a considerable distance. This
scheme would provide suitable opening
for the passage Of two teams at the same
time in the subway. The report was
adopted.
The association Endorsed the efforts
now being made by the board OF education
to eliminate ostenta.fon and promote
