MISS ROBERTS TO
PLAY LIVELY ROLE
Actress Drops Mantle of Woe to
Assume Hoydensh Part
of Gloria

The Transformation. which has
been attracting large houses at the
Novelty theater. will be taken off after
the performance tonight, and Gloria .
will be Miss Florence Roberts next
Offering beginning tomorrow evening
at the Shubert house.
use every man after his deserts and
who shall escape a whipping" is the
Shakespearean text which James Ber-
nard Fagan, the clever Irish dramatist,
has chosen as the. theme for his play
Gloria"
Gloria is an Italian girl living near
Florence in the sixteenth century,
and she has a trio of suitors She
laughs at all of them and her greatest
concern is to play hoydenish pranks
upon the luckless fellows Captain
Bambazone. one of her lovers, is made
TO believe he has been poisoned. The
jest is carried to extreme length, and
Sir Phillip Lilley, the Englishman in
love with Gloria, is persuaded by her
that Bambazone is dead. Sir Phillip,
because of his great affection for Clio
ria, does all he can TO save her from
the consequences of her supposed
crime, but when he discovers he has
been hoaxed and that he has not buried
Bambazone but a boar thrust in a
sack, out of which the captains boots
protruded, there follows recourse to
the Shakespearean text. Gloria is
chastised by her deceived suitor. who
leaves at once. intending never to re-
turn. However, he does come back and
Gloria plans revenge. Sir Phillip is
tied to a post to be beaten by her, but
she relents before the blow is struck
and love thereafter holds sway.
Miss Roberts will play Gloria. and
as she is an unusually clever come
dienne. it viii be a pleasure to see her
in a part which is reminiscent of Kath
crime in The Tanning of the Shrew'
She has an excellent supporting COM
pany and her leading man, White Whit
tlesey, has an excellent opportunity for
a remarkable characterization as an
Elizabethan gentleman. The Shuberts
have given the play a beautiful pro-
duction

BRUNETTE PLAYERS
AT THE VAN NESS
Mcintyre and Heath Return in
New Musical Comedy
in Hayti'

Mcintyre and Heath, manufacturers
of brunette comedy" and the best
known fun makers before the public,
come to the Van Ness theater tomor-
row night in their newest musical
play, In Hayti"
The Ham Tree has been deserted
by the comedians in favor of their
later vehicle, which is said to be the
very best work they have ever had.
There has never been a more per-
feet appreciation of negro humor than
that of James Mcintyre, and leading
critics of the east have ranked it's
artistry with that of the best known
dramatic and tragic stars of the stage.
There is the shading in his work
which comes only after years of close
study and observation. Thomas Heath
has always proved himself as humor-
Gus along broadly contrasting lines.
The chorus is very highly spoken of as
to appearance and intelligence The
solid phalanX of olden days has been
broken up and has given place to more
individuality of action, which is a gain
all around
There are many clever people in
the cast besides the two great black
faced comedians Foremost among
these is Julian Rose, whose artistic
Hebrew of the comedy type should be
well known here for it's popularity;
Marian Stanley. prima donna of wide
eastern reputation; Carrie Reynolds.
sprightly player of lively roles; Jane
Burby, Fletcher Norton, Otto Johnson
and many others.

"RIGHTOf WAYE
SAVOY OFFERING
Presbrey's DramatizatiOn of
Parker's Novel to Be
Presented

The Right of Way will be the at
traction at the Savoy theater for one
week, starting with a matinee today,
with other matinees on Tuesday.
Thursday and Saturday. the first being
q special holiday performance This
engagement will be the second. of this
great play in San Francisco.
To preserve the fullness and richness
OF color and atmosphere of a novel
so replete in these qualities as The
Right of Way" in a dramatization is
an impossible task, and one which
Presbrey has not undertaken The
well made book play is the result of
a selective process, which eliminates
all the explanation and description
and omits much of the action and in
cident which the printed pages make
possible. Description is substituted
by scenery. and an explanation is fur
nished, though not so artisticaIly, by
dialogue. If these are well proDor-
toned and rightly adjusted to the un-
broken central theme the essay NAV
be said to be successful. 1t is so in
The Right of Way" which takes sa
lient scenes from the novel, arranges
them with consecutiveness and cohe-
sion, supplies the mental action which
animates the character and the physi-
cal action in which the figures of the
drama work out their story. In pro-
duction which is truly dramatic, Pres
brey has connectedly presented the
life history of desolate, brilliant ag-
nostic Charley steele, the Montreal
lawyer.
The present production is the orig
inal Klaw & Erlanger equipment. and
the cast, headed by Hallett Thomp-
son. includes P. August Anderson and

Many of the hats have velvet fac
ings.
In the new hats many round crowns
are seen.
Colored embroideries are quite
fashionable.
Tiny velvet buttons are seen on
some of the prettiest foulard gowns
shown.
Colored sashes and colored hair
ribbons will be worn with the little
white dresses.
Raincoats are worn several inches
shorter than the skirt, no matter how
short the skirt may be.
Large sailor hats, with more or
less of a rolling, upturned brim, are
shown in many styles.
With all the richness and beauty
Of the seasons materials, there is a
fad for expensive simplicity.
Instead Of a single fancy button as
finish to the front of a coat, tassel
more or less elaborate is often used.
The return of the blouse and sep
arate skirt restores the sash and belt
to favor, and they are found in at
tractive styles in leather and silk.
While sleeves are short, it is still
considered better taste to cover the
lower part of the arm with tight I'M
dersleeves Of transparent material.
While sleeves are short, It is still
considered better taste to cover the
lower part Of the arm with a tight
undersleeve of transparent material.
The yoke is seen on many of the
new wash skirts. 1t fits snugly over
the hips, while the lower part is box
pleated, and consequently quite full.
Surplice effects are rather promi-
nent in dress styles. Usually there is
little chemisette or plastron or
tucked net or chiffon and a jabot
finish
The latest fancy Tor the hair is a
band of Byzantine embroidery or a
ribbon rich with crusted colored
stones. 1t bands the hair closely, its
joining being hidden.
Old, rich gold and silver brocades,
copied from old world patterns and
colorings, are being made up by some
of the leading dressmakers on both
sides Of the water for entire gowns.
Evening gowns are agleam with
gold and silver, usually the olU, fine
tarnish shades. The metals are used

Lots of men are as truthful as the

There's no hope for men who

Too many peoples idea of a friend

It's easier to stand your conscience

Many a candidate has spoiled his

The fool is still seeking a position

her a silk hat bag, and win her heart
