With Charlotte Walker, a former

d stirring appeal, and is a true picture
4 the lives Of the feudists in the Blue
mountains of Virginia.
Three beautiful settings contribute to
the charm of the play. Miss Walker
presents a finished portrayed of the
mountain girls love for the young en-
SINGER.
The story, written by John Fox. $r.,

mirers, it IS a distinct success, even
IN its third season.

MARRIAGE MARKET"
RECEIVES APPROVAL

It's dancing organization, that
which accompanies Donald Bridn and
his Marriage Market" to the New Ma
tional this week. It's all that, end
more: it is an organization capable Of
furnishing an evening Of amusement of
subtle. though high, grade. which
received the stamp Cf approval from
packed house last night.
The Marriage Market" is a musical
comedy, in which the chorus takes an
active part in the plot, rather than
merely marching on to the stage now
and then. singing a song, giving a
dance or two and then marching away.
In fact. the chorus is just about as es-
sentihl to the conduct of the show as
many of the so-callcd more important
parts.
The Marriage Market Is built on an
old Spanish custom. in vogue in
southern California until a few years
ago. Where cowboys ran rampant, and
femininity was rarely seen. some one
devised the plan of having an annual
sale Of the few remaining unattached
young women in that section. The cow
''punchers' were the bidders. and TO the
highest bidder went the spoils. A
pseudo minister performed the mock
marriage ceremony.
IT so happened. however, that there
was a person qualified to perform the
Wedding ceremony in The Marriage
Market" Hence the extreme embaT>
rassment of real marriage OF Mari
posa Gilroy. daughter of the millionaire
California Senator, to Edward Fleet
wood. othCrwise known as "Tulare
Teddy. himself cow puncher for the
time beiLg.
Donald Brian. as Tulare Teddy, is
Civ en- an opportunity TO take one of
those parts which have made his name
known at least throughout America.
The plot leads up to a point where
he. as Tulare Teddy. must be able 10
dC nee. to dance gracefully, and to dance
well, IL he hopes TO win the hand of the
woman of his choice. IT is needless to
say that ne does all that is expected OF
him.

With Arthur Reynolds, he kept the au-

Sousa. who is good looking, can sing,
and can dance. Moya Mannering and

plaUse. Miss McComas whistled her
way into the hearts of the audience.

The stage settings are beautiful, the
music tuneful and harmonious. In all,

best entertainments seen at the New

POLL PLAYERS GIVE
WORLD AND HIS WIFE

How suspicion, constantly expressed,
NAV breed guilt where none existed Is
cleverly portrayed in The World and
His Wife" by the Poll Players, whose
performance last night would have done
credit to many a company playing one
drama for years.
Miss Frances Nelson takes the part
of Donna fedora, the wife OF Don
Julian, a Spanish politician, whose ap-
pointment as ambassador to a foreign
court is expected. He has specified that
Don Ernesto. played by Richard Buhler.
must be made his first secretary. Sus-
picion of Teodora and Ernesto. breathed
by a political enemy, and by the over
jealous brother of Don Julian, holds
up the appointment and, gradually, Jul
ian himself begins to suspect that al
Is not right.
A duel, provoked with Ernesto by the
enemy, brings Teodora to Ernesto's
room to forbid him to fight on her ac-
count, and there Julian catches the
pair Just after he has been mortally
wounded by the man whom Ernesto is
to fight. Enraged, he denounces what
he construes as perfidy. AfinaI state
ment lust before his death that they are
innocent is unavailing, and they fee
together.
Women in the audience gasped de-
IightedIy at the gowns of Miss Nelson, :.
particularly her Partisan creation in
the last act Buhler's part is a difficult
one, being translated from the Span
ish and Overlooking with monologues
that might easily, in unskillful hands,
become ranting. william d. Corbett
plays the part Of the husband with con-
siderable finesse. He is particularly ef-
fective in the death scene.
Stanley James gives the only touch
Of humor with his impersonation of a
secretary in the British embassy at
Madrid. His work was particularly
good.
A point that was especially appre-
ciated by the audience was a slight
speeding up OF the performance, which
resulted in the final curtain at 103O
o'clock.
