Not since the Lyric Theater opened
it's doors to the public has there been
exhibited such gala array OF feature
acts or so great q number OF mirth-
makers as was done yesterday When
the first performances of the new bill
were given. There is not a weak act
on the program, and without an ex-
ception each of them might be easily
termed the headliner for it was ex-
ceedingly difficult to decide, from the
applause given each, just which one
in particular was most pleasing to the
audiences which witnessed the open

to the pigs and to the terrier.

STANOARO|zE HIGH
SCHOOLS Of STATE

STRTCTION WORKING TO
THAT END.

A new classification of the schools
of the State and a standardization of
the high schools is the chief purpose
now engaging the attention OF the
State Department Of Public Instruc-
ton.
There are many so-called high
schools in Virginia that are high
schools only in name. Two-year
schools OF three or four rooms are
known as high schools. regardless of
the number of teachers. their prepar-
alton or OF the courses offered.
The depaI tment Is endeavoring To
correct these mistakes and to set a
standard up to which every high
school must live. The others will be
known for what they can fulfil the re-
quirements. II is intended to have no
high schools, but four-year high
schools, and TO equip these with com
petent teachers and to hedge them
about with suitable restrictions as TO
the admission and preparation OF
teachers

Skinner In a New PLAY

The mere appearance OF Otis SKIN
ner is always an interesting event in
theatrical season; his appearance in
new play lends added value to the
charm Of his annual visit.
This year Mr.. Skinner comes tnus in
an entirely new guise. or rather lack
of it. Throwing aside his makeup
and the accoutrements OF the swash
buckler, or the fantastic habiliments
of Kismet, he appears in a Straight"
part and makes his first appearance
sans moustache in light flannel suit Of
modern tailoring. The Silent Voice"
Is the selected title of the latest play
from the pen of Jules Eckert Good
man, that Skinner has chosen for his
vehicle and the dramatization an
adaptation OF a story by Gouverneur
Morris. Montgomery Starr, wealthy
bachelor and musical genius, is by a
sudden stroke of fate, bereft OF the
sense OF hearing. at which point the
story opens. The affliction saddenS
and sours his whole life and being
He marries. but his deafness and the
youth Of his wife allow the inevitable
third party of the eternal triangle to
gradually creep between them. Miser-
able and disparfng, Monty rails at
Fate and in the very act of reviling
God, new light burst upon him, and
with the aid of glasses and his recent
ily acquired art OF lip reading, he is
permitted to look into the secrets of
lives unhappier than his own. Here
the DR.. Jekyll overrates the Mr.. Hyde
Of his dual personality and his wealth
and generous heart enable the prayers
of the unhappy to be speedily answer
ed. And so the story progresses. He
and his young wife. drifted far apart,
wait for a sign. which comes with their
simultaneous realization of 1t. when
they awaken to the consciousness of
love, the emotion of all emotions.
While the theme Is In some respects
worn and hackneyed, the treatment by
Mr.. Goodman Is interesting and worthy
of serious attention. MIR. Skinner plays
MontgomerE~Starr with great force
and enacts his affliction with q. start
ling. ympathy-compelling fidelity.
His marvellous voice and his match
less skill in reading were never bet

and expressive shrug of the shoulders
were, of course. much in evidence.
