Act Comedy

81 will join your church, l would

But Billie Burke otherwise jerry
in the play of that name, didn't have
| to go to such lengths to get the man
she wanted to marry. But she was
| very responsible in breaking his en-
gagement to Joan Doubleday and then
| announcing Joan's engagement to
Peter Flagg, one who had loved and
waited. Then when her plans came
to little Jerry upset the entire house
| hold by making them all believe that
she had taken poison: but at any
rate, whether or not her plans to get
| the man she loved were delicate In
nature, she got him Just as she said
in the first act she would.
| When Jerry met him. Montague
/ Wade was engaged to Joan Doubleday
and had been for twenty years. 1t
was a case of love at first sight with
Jerry. Peter Flagg loved Joan, and
with Jerry's help they devised a
| scheme to have the engagement be-
| tween Montague and Joan broken.
Then Peter could marry Joan, and
Jerry could marry Montague. Joan
became tired of waiting and when
Montague postponed the wedding
| again she broke the engagement.
Jerry so informed the society editor
| of newspaper and announced Joan's
| engagement to Peter at the same time
with the broken engagement. Then
| when she was found guilty of all the
| trouble she was punished by solitary
confinement in her room. And here
| she almost made everyone believe she
had taken poison. But Montague
didn't know the truth until after he
had declared his love for her. And
| so she married the man she loved.
! A capacity house greeted Miss Billie
| Burke in her new role of Jerry, the
three-act comedy of that name by

not moment that the audience did
not enjoy. Miss Burke was a vivacious,
| irrepressible, irresponsible Jerry, who,
with her witticisms, kept the audience
| in an uproar. Her company was care
| fully selected and gave Miss Burke
support so able that discrimination
| becomes difficult. In their respective
roles every one did full justice to the
| parts which they played. Allan Pol
lock as Peter Flagg, the English
! cousin of Jerry, played his part per-
] fectly. Shelly Hull as Montague Wade.
| his role difficult in that the situations
| into which he was thrown by the ac-
| ton of the play so quickly changed,
handled his role in an extremely
capable manner. Olive oliver as Joan
and Eleanor Gordon as Harriet Town
send, the mother of Jerry, are both to
be commented upon favorably for the
manner in which they played their
roles. In all the play was delightful,
and Miss Burke could not have found
a role which more perfectly suited her
or company which could have given
her any better support

Speaking of the war, Sir James NJ.
Barrie said:
THE real ultimate cause of the war
is militarism. The nations have been
arming themselves, and a loaded gun
always goes off sooner or later. In my
opinion the war will last a long time.
The issue involved is as clear as the
cause which brought it about-it is
whether soldiers or citizens are to rule
in Europe.
so far as England is concerned, the
most striking feature of the war is the
way in which the young men of Britain
are enlisting.
"One hears the Kaiser generally
blamed for the war. This is somewhat
less than fair. The Kaiser was a young
man In 1870 when the war spirit was
very strong, and he is merely the pro-
duct of a system.
1T is too early to talk of peace ne
gotiations. No peace would be lasting
nor would II produce the results which
we all hope for unless one side is thor
oughly beaten"
