up as boy.
The play was one of the greatest OF

POLAR P|CTURESAT
BELASC0 THIS WEEK
"Undying Story of Capt. Scott
Will Continue, on Every
Afternoon and Evening.

1t is doubly gratifying to the manage
ment of the theater to have an attrac-
ton which in itself entertains and also
instructs. The pictures of Captain
Scott's expedition to the South Pole. at
the BelasCo Theater, have created In
usual enthusiasm this last week. The
pictures and the lectures have taken
such a hold upon many educators that
parties are being organized from pri-
Vate schools In and near Washington
to attend in a body.
The bravery of Captain Scott and his
companions will in days to come be a
theme for the poet and the novelist.
These men, without blame or censure,
but submitting to the will of Divine
Providence, died the death of true
heroes.
Can anything be more beautiful than
the calm herOism with which the leader
of this little band sat down. and with
death staring him in the face, weighed
in the scales the dOings of himself and
his comrades. The result is that this
simple modest man. who claimed pow
ers neither of speech nor of writing, has
left a message which will outlive the
highest flights OF trained eloquence.
In compliance with the last wish Of
the men who lost their lives in The
cause of science, part of the pro-
ceeds of these pictures goes 10 the
widows and orphans.
The Undying story of Captain Scott
will continue another week. every after

at the Columbia Theater all this week,
beginning tomorrow night. when the
Columbia Players will offer an elab-
crate production of THE Road to Yes
ly. THE Road to Yesterday is In
four acts and is the joint work of Miss

producing a comedy of fantasy in
which they have cleveriy interviewer
daintiness with virility and force. 1t
was originally produced at the Herald
Square Theater. New York. with a no
table cast. including Minnie Dupree.
whose place will be filled in the Column
bia production by Helen Holmes. an
actress well endowed to duplicate Miss
Dupree's success, Carrie Thatcher.
Frances Younge, Willard Robertson.
Everett Butterfield. and Stanley James
will be seen in other roles.
The managers desire especially to
impress upon patrons the advisability OF
being in their seats promptly. as no one
will be shown TO seat during the first
act. This rule is made necessary since
the enjoyment OF the entire perform
ance depends upon thorough under
standing of the early part of the plot
To tell the story OF the plav In ad-
fantasy would be to rob 1t of half its
charm, but suffice II to say that from
first act. laid In 1903, the second and
third carry the audience back 800 years
to the days OF chivalry and romance.
The play will be mounted with the
usual care and staged in a manner that
will set a new standard for the Colum-
