Attractions at the Theatres
~THE GREATEST NATION.n

IL takes some courage to present
such a play as "The Greatest Nation"
for the reason that it frankly voices a
thinly-veiled, but decided opinion
concerning the great European war
and that some demented partisan Of
one side or the other might stray into
the theatre some night and shoot Mr..
Elliott as he breaches his peace doc
trine or Mr.. Hal Forde as he ruth
lessly outlines as his policy the prin-
ciples usually credited to a certain
fighting ruler.
BE that as it may the play should
be taken seriously and accorded a
warm welcome for those very princi-
pies it upholds, love in place Of
hate, peace instead Of war, forgive
ness rather than retaliation.
The actual dramatic merit of "The
Greatest Nation can scarcely be de-
cded at a first performance, but this
peice. Of which the central figure is
"A prince who is as stubborn in his
adherence to Christian principles as
most rulers are obstinate in defying
them in spite Of a good deal of talk,
tells a good story and has several
tensely dramatic moments.
The story is briefly this. The queen
of Thor is dying. Worn out with
fighting, for she comes of a line of
warriors. She loathes bloodshed and
begs only that her infant son may be
brought up to lead men. not to drive
them. She entrusts him to the care
Of two wise scholars who are faith
full to her dying behest and the son,
Prince Alan of Donau nobly fulflls
his mothers ambition and establishes
rule of peace, which extends far
beyond his own small domain.
"The Greatest Nation" contests a
good company of actors. William Ell
liott remembered for his fine Ray
mond" in Madame X" revels in
that fierce light that beats upon a
star. In his support are Roland
Blackstone, for many years leading
comedian with E. H. SOthern, and
Miss Olive Wyndham. a very attrac-
tive young actress who was one of
the original members OF the New
Theatre when that enterprise was
begun I'm New York. II seems TO be
mistake to double the parts of the
Queen of Thor and the Princess
Xenia. as it interferes seriously
with the illusion. Two other charac.
ters are doubled without detrimental
effect, but Madame Yorska. good in
both parts. is easily recognizable
through her accent and should not be
asked to double The rest OF the
large supporting company is admira-

Patrons TO be Given Great
Reductions in Appreciation
of Five Years Success

Because Of a desire to express in
substantial manner their thanks
10 the people of Wilmington for the
liberal patronage extended the store
during the five years of Its existence.
the Livingston store. at Fifth and
Market streets. has arranged a fifth
anniversary sale. which opened TODAY
and is TO continue seven davs. Il
really will be THANKSGIVING sale.
with the public as the beneficiary.
II was on the eighth day of April.
1871, that the southeast corner OF
ruth and Market streets. after hav-
ing been vacant for some time COM
menced TO put on new life. At
that time Harry Livingston, Of New
York City rented for just one year.
this store property i'm which many
merchants previously had found it so
, hard TO make a success. Some thought
1t impossible for store to make a
success by extending credit TO the
masses, and give real values at the
| prices quoted.
Mr.. Livingston. who conducts a
chain of stores throughout the east.
had his own ideas about the matter.
Il can't see why Wilmington should
not turn out as successfully as did
my stores i'm pottsville. Harrisburg.
! Williamsport, Wheeling. and some of
my other stores in the east" he said.
"lf give my customers the same
values at the same prices as ! do in
my other stores. and besides extend
credit TO any one who is not in a po-
sition TO pay all cash. people are
bound TO sit up and take notice. OF
course. ] don't expect to make a big
success In a years time. but / believe
that II I place the right kind of a
manager in this store and people find
out that every transaction made is
guaranteed by our firm the store is
bound TO prove a success"
1 Mr.. Livingston's words have proved
\ true. in every particular.
After the first years lease had OK
pired. another for three years was
signed and in 1915 another was made
for three years From one-foor
store Livingston's has grown 10 one
of. three floors and is now ranked as
the largest credit clothing shop i'm the
, East Under the management of Dan
NJ. Rachlin It has made such strides
that over 1000 charge accounts arc
on the establishments books. while
IL numbers among its customers some
OF the best people Of the country.
I I'm giving this anniversary sale tho
management desires 20 impress upon
its patrons that il is not a money
making idea, no. is il an unloadinf
sale Mr., Rachlin puts il thus
"Whv. man. at the prices We are sell.
ing cur goods during this sale, retail
ers would be tickled TO death to buy
our entire stock. Eut it's not oul
intention to realize any profit II Is
merely a sort Of thank offering tC
the Wilmington people for the pa
tronage extended us in the past five
years. We are willing to take oui
; loss with a smile. just to show oul
. patrons that it appreciates their pa.
d tronage. The way the market is TO-
, day. with raw material going up. and
pc labor scarce, our present stock oil
