' By far the most important event that has happened in the local the atriCal world vas the arrival on tTiday of Rumaine Fielding and the Lubiu Co. for an indefinite stay ill Phoenix and the Salt River valley. It would mSan great deal to Phoe- nix it any company of note were [" locate here. but the advent of such q splendid organization as the !.ubin Co. under the direction of d man like Fielding is an asset that will keep on paying dividends long after they have left us.
 Among all the great directors Mr. Fielding ranks first as q producer of outdoor pictures. His eye for landscape effects is marvellous and no pictures thrown on any screen can excel in scenic effects the wor- tier of the Lubin offerings.
 In d conversation regarding Pho"- niN and it's surroundings, MT.

in the movies as well as on the legitimate stage become more acute, and the most prominent manageiS are taking steps to prevent stars ap bearing under their mana cement from taking advantage ef ;Ac Iu- crative work oifcred them by the
 movie peorle Incre nave Seen ru- riors that stars appearing in the
 movies would be barred from the stage; but this would seem to put
 the managers in the positions of tlacklisting themselves, as many of
 the prominent theatrical magnai"s
 arc heavily interested in various
 movie concerns.
 Here k statement by Lee Shu lcrt which scts forth the managers
 side of the controversy and certain 1 lN holds q warning to the actors: 1 Many of the best known artists
 of tho American stage have ruined
 their ranking and drawing power hy acting for moving picture produr-
 tions." declared Lee Shubert. 'Tbcy
 kaye not only lowered their impor,- snce as players in the regular legi;
 mate drama. but they have similar |, ly njdred the business of produc- ing managers who afforded them tte 1 opportunity of achieving popularity
 with thc thcatcrg going public.
 Nowadays when responsible ie
 gitimate manager presents one of tltese actors iu an expensive produc-
 ton he is likely 10 find that in tA,.
 near vicinity to the playhouse at
 which he is offering this particular
 star at regular high class prices,
 there is 2 moving picture theater
 where this artist is simultaneously
 being flamboyantly featured at , and
 lh cents admission prices.
 ''Thc picture house promoter uses
 the same style of show billing as
 foes the lesiiimate manager, with
 the result that the minds of the amusemen- public become so confused that oftcntimes one is Ut 2 loss to know at which theater q certain actor is appearing person and in which he is playing on the screen.
 An example of this point occurred not long ago William Farnum was appearing at the Lyric theater in The Battle cry regular first class legitimate production. At nearbN meticn picture playhouse Mir. Far mum was also appearing in another production on the screen but not IT person. Since the advertising for both offerings was very similar the public was at a less to understand which was a moving picture and which was not.
 "A few of our legitimate stars have refused tempting offers iron picture producers, because they re alize the ultimate outcome of sucl action. They should be compliment ed for their sincerity in wishing ic uphold their standing in the regular dramatic field.

that Richard Bennett was to produce BrieuX'S Damaged Goods, a howl of indignation went up from one end of the land ,o the other. That any men should have the cffrontcry to put such a thing OF the stage was to preposterouS to consider seriously. Even sensation seeking managers re- fused to handle il and ii was next to impossible tp secure theater for q private production. But produced it finally was and created a most profound impression wherever it was seen. Instead of staying away as had been predicted. people Hooked to see it and absorb the lesson preached.
 Now Mr. Bennett is to produce Maternity" also by Alr. NJ BricuN. and the announcement is not greeted with any tirade nor is the press flooded with letters of protest as was the case when Damaged Goods was announced. However it seems that this latest exposition of ,h" great art of M Breux is not to be open to the general public as yet: for time at least all men who wish to see it must be member of the Purpose Play Society, and a series of For Women only performances is announced.
 Maternity is a criticism of the attitude of modern society towards motherhood. It is wonderfully writ ten. and unlike Damaged Goods, '' which was not 2 well constructed i play. its stirring truths are presentc l In wonderful dramatic form. It is a great play and will undoubtedly eventually reach and appeal to the public in general as much and not from any sense of morbid curiosity. { WHEN EVERYBODY LAUGHED Now Marie Dressler is ia turn iauthor.

 Following close upon tho an rouncemcnt of the bankruptcy of Liebler N O. comes the news that Harrison Grey fiskc has. gone under. The failure of Mir tist,e serves ;o bling home the fact that this is ono i ef the most disastrous seasons that the theatrical world has gone through in many, many years. and Dame Rumor has it that several more or less prominent personagcs are hoy ering on the brink If disaster. [ A very notable feature of this fail Urc was the closing without notice at the Play house. It is very rarclr . that anything ike that happens now adays and the fact that q man of ! fiske's prominence had allowed the members of he company to report for the evenin; performance. only tp find the stagf door barred against ? them caused quite sensation along ! tlle Rialto He did have enough con si1cration for poor little Lydia tc RIfit li'I Ifl to fpiii' tp tIi' lI' : atcr. but that was as far as his i consideration went The balance Ci the company were allowed to repor as usual and on doing sn found tine i doors locked and there was not ever anyorc thcJr 10 tell them that tl. play would not be performed 1s usual Later 9 representative of inc ' fthcator informed tn" company thal there would be no performance ana refused to allow any member of tn C, mpany te enter the theatcr, ever for the purpose of removing theii personal helongings.
