NEW YORK SUCCESS
COMES TO NATIONAL

Messrs Klaw & Erlanger announce
for this week at the National Theater
the play extraordinary, entitled The
Poor Little Rich Girl
Miss Eleanor Gates has very aptly
called her stage work "a play of fact
and fancy" For the sake of clearness,
1t will be convenient first of all to sum-
Marie that section of the narrative
which really happened in the realm of
fact 10 one of her childhood chums,
and eventually became THE Poor Little
Rich Girl of theatrical fame.
Miss Gates play, from all account is
the result of much deep thought and
psychological study, guided and guarded
by the important facts that subcon-
scious mind is complete record of every
pcture and happening, and that a de
lirium is the distorted, fanciful wander
ings of a subconscious mind. and IN
dreamland fashion the audience rs
toured from the real to an unreal world
and back again.
For its engagement at the National
Messrs. Klaw & Erlanger announce the
original production in its entirety,
which is not only fantastical TO a
degree, but is stupendous as their
scenic splendor presented IN Ben Hur."

COMEDY BY FITCH
IS POLL SELECTION

Clyde Fitch's first big success, Cap
tain Jinks of the Horse Marines" is
this weeks attraction at Polls Theater.
The comedy was produced thitreen years
ago in Philadelphia, and in one-night
established Ethel Barrymore as star.
The story of the comedy concerns a
beautiful young American girl. who is
sent abroad to study music. and who
returns to New York a few years later
the most famous singer on the opera
stage of London. The big scene of the
play occurs just after her triumphant
FIRST appearance in her native land. The
behind -the-sceneS story connected with
this first American appearance proves
q more appealing romance than any IN
which the young singer has appSa red
on the operate stage. The COMEDY Is
laid in a period when The Last Rose
Of Summer" was the reigning song nit
Of the day in England and the United
States. Miss Izetta Jewel will be seen
