Maude AdamA' Rehearsals.

A rehearsal Of the Maude Adams COM
pany is not like the rehearsal of any
other organization. The usual method is
to read the play to the people who are
to appear in 1t and then call the first
rehearsal. The play Is then gone through
scene by scene and act by act Miss
Adams distributes the parts to those who
arc to play them and then calls a con-
ference Of the players. at which the play
to be given is read, explained and dis
cussed. Then the actors are rehearsed
individually by Miss Adams. Later the
actors are rehearsed In the scenes. and
finally the entire company Is called to
60 through the play. The old-timer used
to the old method would naturally ask:
But how do the scenes dovetail when
the people are brought tosether?" The
answer is. beautifully. and the people say
that Miss Adams method gives them a
surer touch than they could ever get by
the old method. Miss Adams believes in
getting the roles the members of the
company are to play under their skins
and she succeeds In doing 50.

Sunday, December IL, 1918.
This is lucky day. according to astrol-
ogy. Jupiter, Venus and Uranus are all
| in benefic aspect. and there Is no strong
ly evil sway of the stars.
Jupiter is in a place that Is most en-
couragins for bankers and brokers. They
should make great profits in the coming
| week. but they are warned against reck-
less speculation, for there is a dubious
sign for the future.
Women will do well to make the best
| of this day, which Is most favorable for
| love affairs, engagements and romance.
1t Is a good rule under which to make
new acquaintances.
The stars presage a season OF extra
ordinary social activity in many Ameri-
can cities, especially in Washington,
where unusual events will take place.
According to ancient law. this rule of
the stars was always lucky to the wearer
OF new clothes.
Uranus is in a place believed to be pc
culiarly stimulating to the psychic
powers. It is also conducive to spiritual
unfoldment. Clergymen, lecturers. and
all who appeal to the public minds.
