"SIR" OSCAR TELLS SECRET
Advises Theatre Managers Here
TO Emulate His Modesty.

Oscar Hammerstein told the Association
of Theatre Managers last night at their
animal dinner, at the KniCkerbocker, the
true secret of his success in London. II
was due to his modesty he said. He de-
murely shut himself up, he said, from
newspaper men and would not talk. This
won their respect Cthey being English
newspaper men)-in fact, won so great an
amount Of their respect that they made
him a member Of their club, an honor
which he modestly admitted had never be-
fore been accorded to an American After
this it was only a matter Of every ones
admitting that his was the greatest opera
house in the world.
And I became the favorite Of the hour,
he declared. He went on TO ADVISE the
assembled managers that If they wanted to
repeat his success they must first emulate
his modesty He was introduced as Sir
Oscar Hammerstc!n by the POSTMASTER
Charles Durham.
Robert II. Davis, OF THE Munsey' mag
azine, declared there was not a manager
there who had not rejected one or two of
his plays. and there were at least a hun
dred present He hailed them as the great
est rejectors of all time and trust to
oppose the development OF the human in
tellect."
Percy G. Williams raised the question Of
the inroads of the moving pictures on the
business Of the managers. After the NOV
ing picture, what ncXt?' he OTatorically
asked. Arthur Brisbane answered this by
saying that there would be more and better
moving pictures, and he left small hope in
their managerial breasts proving, 10 his
own satisfaction, at least that moving
pictures are one of the greatest ciyilizing
and educating devices ever invented and
greatly TO be desired.
Augustus Thomas spoke Of the necessity
Of a national theatre company with a
Shakespeare TcpertOTy company as an
academy to train school Of all around
actors II could not support itself. he said
but would need the financial support OF the
managers. This suggestion received no APP
