change will also include the
closing Of the office each evening
promptly at s 100 o'clock, or 30
minutes after the distribution Of
the incoming mail and opening of
tie general delivery window.
For the convenience Of those
dropping letters or parcels dur
ing the hours that the office is
closed hoxes with ample openings

access from the street.
Experience indicates that these
changes will make the local postal
service much more satisfactory TO

auested to bear them in mind and
save confusion.

productions, beginning here with
David Belasco's premiere of Roi
Cooper Megrue's new play entitled
"The Lucky Fellow" at the Belasco
Theater a week from tomorrow
evening.
When announcement was made
that Mr.. Belasco would be more than
usually active this spring a New
York theatrical writer commented to
a man in close touch with all of Mr..
Belasco's plans that he couldn't un-
derstand why the producer was ar
ranging numerous new presentations
at the tail end of the theatrical year,
especially since he now has David
Warfield on the road in ''Van der
Decken,r awaiting the availability Of
a New York theater.
Don't worry about Mr.. Belasco,"
returned the man questioned. This
IS the time of year when he is try
ing out plays and schemes. Look
at The Boomerang probably the
most persistent of present New York
successes, which means a lot. He
tried that out last spring, saw what
was wrong with it, worked on it all
summer, got it into shape, took it for
a preliminary tour for a few weeks
in the summer and brought it into
New York in August letter perfect.
1t was no longer an experiment, but
a sure fire hit. Mr.. Belasco did not
have to worry about its production,
for it ran like oiled clockwork. He
did not have to. worry about the
lukewarm newspaper notices, either.
He knew what he had, and the public
has been flocking to see the play
for full nine months now" .-..

Birth Of Nation will be the attrac-
ton at the National Theater commenc-
ing tomorrow Night.s There will be daily

For many years American dramatists
wrote splendid plays of particular States,
cities or localities such as Alabama %
''The Henrietta" Way Down East. and
The Great Divide" But no one seemed
10 grasp the whole spirit and genius of
America until Mr.. Griffith found his
theme in Thomas Dixon's THE Clans
man" and The Leopard's Spots"
The result of Mr.. Griffth's efforts is
a new and stupendous art for which no
adequate name has yet been found.
In a presentation lasting little less than
three hours it epitomizes the life of a
nation. The obsolete stage unities'' are
thrown to the winds and Griffith carries
the splendid story from the introduction
of slavery into America down through
the civil war and reconstruction days to
the final real union of North and South
In the bonds of peace and love.
Among the players In the cast are
Henry B. Walthall. Mae Marsh, Lillian
Gish. Miriam Cooper, Mary Alden, Jo-
sephine Crowell, Ralph Lewis, Joseph
Henabery, Raoul Walsh. Donald Crisp,
