~ OMEHOW, I didn't want to see
 War Brides;' I hate things that A grip and hurt and make you think.
 That seems funny coming from any body who is as patty as l am about the theatre, from anybody who loves everything connected with the theatre as much as I do, from the Charlie Chap lin-est'' slap-jack comedy at the old-fash- toned ''Nickleodeon'' to grand opera in all of it's beauty and dignity.
 You see, I'd read War Brides" so, no doubt had you. I'd scanned and poured over the critics accounts of Nazimovas s marvellous interpretation of the part; I'd seen the pictures of her, with all her ex- otic, snaky, sinking, crawling, poses eliminated; yes, eliminated, for the first time. I'd seen her pictured in the little old cotton frock and the little old gray shawl about her slender shoulders, whereas I had never seen her before ex- cept as the intriguing Mrs. Crepstow of
 Bella Donna or the girl-wife Nora of ''The Dolls House. or the intellectual degenerate of Hedda Gabler for Hedda' S trouble, no matter what, is asserted to the contrary, was largely cerebral, when it came to her interest in her-er-well, say ''nawsty" things; in all of these charac- ters the delectable Nazimova squirms and wiggles and swishes through episodes and situations in trailing gowns of blue and gold (generally), so we didn't recognize her in calico.
 But what a tremendous hit she made in calico, don't you remember?
 Well, there's girl round at the Lyric this week who is playing Joan in War Brides who is making a name for her self in this self same calico.
 I had never heard of her. I didn't even look on the programme to see what her name was Afterward when did found it was "Biala,'' or something of the sort That didn't matter; it was what she did that mattered.
 She delivers the message of the homely little drama-I've called it a drama ette,'' as eloquently as I've ever heard a message delivered, with an intensity and a realness that is gripping to the core. In the tense, concise words of War Brides Git takes less than 30 minutes to

bugle is heard, the heart broken moth- CT with her four sons given to the war |-her first born"-her beautiful boys; to the animated scene between Joan and Joseph Kernan when she flares up at his daring to ask her sister Amy to be his war bride-a man she scarcely knows-the situation is intense.
 loans biggest appeal is when she shouts at Herman the words:
 "What--to breed a soldier for the empire, to restoclz the land? And for what? For food for the next genera tion's cannon? You violate all that makes marriage sacred Are we women never to get up out of the dust? You never asked us if we wanted this war yet you ask us to gather in the crops, cut the wood, keep the world going, drudge and slave and wait and agonize, lose our all, and go on bearing more men-and more-to be sho. down" An ascending scale of dramatic in tensity is struck here and Joan lib- crates the full torrents of her vivid emotionalism while news from the front arrives and the patient mother inquiries about her boys.
 Amy, who brings the news, pauses. (Which one?" asks the broken, torn, pathetic mother.

That was Rolfe's position after he
had worked FIVE days for the Eastern
railroad. He had been taken on after
submitting his references, because the
line needed men in q hurry. 1t had
just come out of liquidation, and
everything was topsy-turvy. Freight
and passenger trains were mixed; q
certain number had to be sent along
the metals to anywhere within ceF-
tain time, for the retention Of fran
chise; altogether the Eastern railway
was in confusion. But Wilbraham,
the new president, was going to make
1t efficient. Nobody doubted that.
Rolfe's references were satisfactory,
but there was gap in them. He did
not offer any explanation of the gap,
but resolved to make good.
On the fifth morning the president
sent for him.
"Rolfe, you are said to have served
term in the penitentiary for theft, )"
he said.
ITS true, sir, but"
You are the son of William Rolfe
of Leeds?"
Yes, sir. /"

you" said Mr. Wilbraham.

the court and Rolfe had got two years.
When he came out, crushed in
spirit, he resolved to fight his way
nevertheless. He obtained several po-
sitions, but every time old Stevens
had him discharged. His stepfather's
hatred of him seemed the passion of
his life. The malice of the old man
was beyond understanding. Why did
he hate him so?
Anyway, Rolfe was resolved to JUS
tify the worlds opinion of him. He
went back to gather up his things,
with a deliberate plan in his mind.
The superintendent called him.
"Rolfe, you'll take Joe's place as
conductor on the 5:12," he said.
The line was desperately short Of
men. The SIP consisted of an en-
CINE and a single empty passenger
coach, required to comply with the
terms of the franchise. No! Rolfe's
heart leaped up as he remembered
something more, and the blood began
to hammer in his ears. A cash ship
ment of $4,000 was to go in special
express car. And the superintendent
had evidently not heard that he was
discharged.
"All right, sir" Rolfe responded.

to be the sole passenger on the train
and was evidently on some important
and last-minute mission. Rolfe
watched him Chamber aboard. He
showed himself deliberately; but the

him. Rolfe smiled bitterly. So little
