 A FIRST NIGHTER'S S nutshell reviey A of play produced in New Yor

A FIRST NIGHTER'S nutshell review
 "A of play produced in New York
 A is as follows
 "Retributon fell upon war last night
 when Moloch' was produced at the New
 Amsterdam theatre. Every play of bat t'e from Secret Service to Under Fire
 has used war as a romping ground for
 heroes and herones who say fine words
 and do brave deeds, but Beulah Dix paints war which is cruel. useless and in all things detestabe Hers is a war which kills character as well as body. Not one thing can come from conflict but that which is evil, is the lesson of Mo loch. VI
 Temperateness is rare virtue. War has been made, by romantic writers, mitch more inspiring than 1t actually is. or dc- tually ever was. But the dramatist who sets out to prove that mot one thing can come from the conflict but that which Is evil'' is intemperate to the point of sheer stiffness, provided, of course the argu- ment Is made seriously and with moral purpose. If it is . catch-penny device 1t is timely and should prove profitable. The world just now is sick of war and sore at promoters of war. The anti butchery play will have and will hold it's
 audience If it R.,fesh.a3f philosophy or spark of merit But to say that nothing but evil exists in war, and that contact with it is surst animation is old maids chatter. like the statement that men will not make bayonet charges save x NXI Ez&. ......... .. =.

National Guard and State Gunrd

"The best way to increase the strength of the army without a heavy expenditure of money would be for the National Guard to be placed directly under the war department and for the government to pay each guardsman a small amount, say privates $40 to $50 a year." remarked John S. Tudor of Pitts burg, who served term in the Penn sy1vania National Guard.
 If that were done the organization could be recruited up to several hundred thousand men. Uncle Sam should have entire control of this branch of the military service The National Guard would then be national in every sense of the term and 1t would be practically as efficient for service In time of war as the regulars.
 Should such plan be adopted, each commonwealth would have to organize a state guard for emergency police duty in case of riots or other local disturb ance."

.'WILDFIRE" Is GOOD
SHOW At CRAWFORD.

Horse racing has been dramatized
into a fine bit of melodrama and called
"WiIdfire." The reorgantzed Lyric Play
ers are playing the race track story this
week at the Crawford.
The play deals with the older tradi-
lions of the race track when the sport
was society's pet diversion and the big
races were as popular as world series
baseball games are in this day. The love
of women for thoroughbred horses, the
excitement of the big race and the plot
ting of a crooked" bOOkmaker, are in
corporated into the three act play in
such a way as to make a splendid eve
ning's entertainment
Miss Edith PollOck's part of the own
er of "Wildfire." the wonderful racer,
is a fine one and she makes the most Of
it Her acting in the stable scene, where
she gives the jockey his instructions on

how to race "Wndfire" is the best bit
of work she has done since coming TO
the Crawford.
Bert GagnOn who plays the part of
John Garrison. who races horses for
love of the game, is perfect. as all OF
Dir. GagnOn's Characterization are. He
looks, dresses and acts the part Of Gar
risOn.
A new character actor has come to
the Crawford in the person Of Miss Min
ME Louise Ferguson, who plays HOr-
tense Green, the chocolate skinned maid
of Mrs. Darlington this week. It is a
refreshing bit of acting that she does
in this part, for she neither Overacts or
Overdresses. Her HOrtense is as natural
as life and her simpering over Rastas,
the black jockey is life itself Her
makeup, intOnatiOns and acting are all
studied and her addition to the Lyric
Players has improved the company so
percent
Roy Lewis plays John Duffy, the
bOOkmaker. with a realization of the
character and Claude Gagnon, as the
dude negro jockey, is convincing. Girls
are seldom good in boy parts, but
Gladys Bush plays the part of Bud, the
stable boy, who reveals the plot to pull
"Wildfire," with a youthful charm and
she is the pet of the play.
