"MARE-ODILE"
SEEN AT ORPHEUM
Company Headed by Frances
Starr Capably Presents Ed
ward Knoblauch's New Play

The latest of Edward Knoblauch's
plays, "Marie-Odile.' play in three
acts. was presented last night at the
! Orpheum before a moderately sized
audience. The play. staged by David
Belasco. gave to this city the oppor-
tunity to appreciate the artistry and
brutality upon an order that has for
protege, Frances Starr. Well remem-
bered to theatrical goers for her work
| in Rose of the Rancho and The
Case of Becky" Miss Starr has added
materially in this new vehicle to her
| former successes
In play Of the type of Marie
Odile" one dare not assume the re-
sponsibility of broadly generalizing,
| for both the text as written by the
author and the presentation of the
text by the players demands separate
consideration. Two names assure be-
yond a doubt the presentation of any
thing they attempt. A Belasco show
invariably means that the presentation
is one wherein absolutely nothing that
can attribute to the artistry, effective
ness and correctness of the minuteSt
detail has been overlooked. And the
name of Frances Starr carries with il
the knowledge that whatever the role
attempted. that role will be artistically
and dramatically portrayed. Just so
with Marie 0dile." Belasco has pro-
vided not only an artist to interpret
the character, but has surrounded her
with a company that is in every way
thoroughly artistic and capable in their
respective parts. And for detail and
strict adherence to the ritual and GUS
toms surrounding the characters of
the play Belasco has lived up to his
reputation of being the most careful
and artistic producing manager of his
day.
Magazines and periodicals of the
/ have
the story of the play that it can be
overlooked in review at this time.
AS for the play itself, that must be a
matter for everyone'S personal thought
and decision. Too many of our So
called phases of life" have been
Haunted upon our stage, all of them
viewed and reviewed with thoughts
manifold in number as compared to
the subjects presented. But that does
not in any way justify the questionings
of another mind. Marie Odile" in
text is matter for ethical discussion,
and no matter how little or how much
one may talk about the fact that oc-
currences such as happen in the play
might happen in everyday life, or
might happen under conditions of
stress. would not in any way convince
another mind that those things should
be presented for the entertainment or
for the uplift of a theatergoing public
"Marie-Odile" in text is a beautiful
story, charming because of it's inno-
cence and simplicity: but one finds it
rather hard to conceive that men,
under no matter what condition they
are laboring, should presume to infiict
brutality upon an order" that has for
thousand years stood as the eX-
emplification of the highest and
noblest in womanhood. Marie Odile"
will be to every one of its hearers lust
what he chooses to think about the
story and the situations in which this
young novice finds herself placed be-
cause of a little act of willful dis
obedience.

YOUNG MEN WHO
WORK WILL WIN
Wharton Students Told of
Many Open Places in Busi-
ness World

With an enthusiasm among the
students that bespeaks great things
for the 1915-16 session. the Harris
burg Extension of the University of
Pennsylvania Wharton School of
Finance and Commerce was formally
opened last night with exercises in
the Technical High school auditorium.
More than q hundred and fifty stu
dents and a good number of visitors
were present and heard leading men
in the city's business and educational
life tell of advantages to be gained
by the young man who is willing to
devote his spare time to study and
| training along some special line.
Thomas Lynch Montgomery, State
Librarian, told the students that the
great men of every age have been
those who have. made good use of
their spare time. He pointed out that
any youth who will devote four nights
of each week to conscientious study
can not help but better his chances in
the world of business.
Great Field For Young Men
c. Harry Kahn, chairman of the
Rotary Clubs Wharton school booster
committee, who presided, told the
students that they could rest assured
the Rotary Club will be constantly
back of the Harrisburg Extension and
will assist it in every way possible. E.
l.. McColgin, secretary of the Harris
burg Chamber of Commerce, declared
that there is great open field for
young men with business training, as
serting that in his dealings with men
of affairs in this city and elsewhere
he hears many complaints of the lack
of men qualified to take executive
positions. He said there are many
ordinary clerks hunting jobs. but
mighty few to be had who possess the
broad business training which the
Wharton School provides.
Another speaker of the evening was
Chas. A. Kunkel, president of. the
Mechanics Trust Company. He COM
mended the young men and praised
them for their ambition. Mr.. Kunkel
said that the big ambition of every
man should be to make himself fit"
for a real place in the world of busi-
ness. Marshall II. Dean, attorney for
the Elliott-Fisher Company-one or
the big industrial concerns here
which has been boosting the Univer-
sity EXtension-told the students that
hard work is ahead of them, but that
they will be more than repaid when
their course is completed for spend
ing their time in study instead of loaf
ing In pool rooms or sitting on the
sofa with some maiden, however
charming.
T. j. Stewart Kishpaugh. a student
member of the Wharton School and
one of the leaders in the schools
activities, addressed the student body
and urged them to become members
of the Wharton Club which has been
organized for social and serious pur-
poses. j. Russell Smith. professor of
industry of the University outlined
the work of the year and explained
what the University will expect of the
students.
