to the Jefferson Theatre, Portland, for

The arrangements for the Expert
ence'' engagement at the Jefferson
Theatre were made with William Ell

Gest who present his modern morality
play of today.
Experience" gives the stage a story
SO true to life that it mirrors not a
chosen few but in a more or less ac-
centuated and modified form-the life
of the universe. The critics say the
speeches are vibrant truths that ring
a clarion call to all. Mr.. Hobart has
painted his scenes with wide contrast:
the strokes bold and true, especially
the gambling house scene called The
Corridors of Chance" and the gay
festivities of the modern cabaret
called in "Experience,' The Primrose
Path" Then there is that striking
scene in The House of the Last Re
sort" and the vivid scene showing the
wrecks from the curse of drugs called
The House of Lost Souls" and then
