Whether Chase's palatial new theater
is the most beautiful in America" or
not. the fact remains Washington has
never had anything like it. and ii may
be many years before it will see anything
like 1t again. Money has been lavishly
expended to make the structure through
out not only artistically and exquisitely
| beautiful, but absolutely perfect in its
appointments and the many unusual de-
tails that make for the comfort md the
pleasure OF its patrons. The master
hand in art and mechanics is visible a
every point.
1t has always been the well known aim
of Mr.. Chase to get close to his patrons. to
make them feel he had a friendly inter-
est in them. and to impress upon them
his personal interest in giving them the
best possible amusement of the clean
and enjoyable kind under conditions that
could not fall to add to their pleasure.
| While in other cities theaters of the same
rank have charged "up,to-date' prices.
| ChaSe's has steadily adhered to a low
| scale that those who desired might have
the opportunity to enjoy polite and re-
| fined vaudeville of the first rank at prices
within the reach of everybody. 1t is
| these facts. 1t is said, that have built
up for Chase's an enthusiastic clientele.
| loyal and unwavering at all times.
| In the new theater Mr.. Chase presents
| a still further claim to the support OF
the amusement loving public of Wash
| ington. He has not been content to make
his theater alone delightfully."- comfortable
and beautiful, from it's sound-deadening
| "Kompolite" floors to the highly ornate
and artistic dome that caps the audito-
rum, but he has gone two stories below
the surface to provide surprises and even
| luxuries. and all of them free to his
patrons.
A complete description of the mammoth
structure would be next to impossible in
single article. Its beauties and its
luxuries will be their own best press
agent. Time alone will unfold them all
! and do justice to the mind that conceived
and the hand that made them possible.
When the capacity audience--for that is
already assured-enters the new play
house Monday afternoon it will find a
color scheme Of crimson, ivory and bronze
superb in It's artistic development From
the low-set stage that offers complete
view to the holder of every seat in the

ITO be honest he said. 4 keep my

can paste ii over cracks in windows
