The Traffic"
At Hudson Theatre

Starting next Monday matinee the
popular Keith Players at the Hudson
theatre will appear IN sensational
white Slave play entitled ''Thc Traf-
fic." 1t is said to be the most VIVID
picture of the commerce in woman
hood that has ever been seen on the
stage and most powerful arraigi-
ment of industrial injustice. 1t is
powerful because it is true, and, I'M
IKE 1.-The Lure" and some others, it
is not overdone. The famous detec-
1--WE, william A. Pinkerton, after wit
Messing a performance of 1.-THE Trail
nc" while 1t was enjoying long and
successful run in the city of Chicago,
said: D." The Traffic is the cleanest,
truest expose of this insidious form
of vice ever attempted on the stage.
1t is worth thousand raids and a
million sermons, and if the good peo-
pie of this country would witness it
and realize it's significance, the hard
est task of the police would be made
easy. l never saw more convincing
play on a terrible subject so delicate
ly handled on the STAGE" And Bar
ret O'Hara, Lieutenant Governor of
Illinois, writes to Rachael Marshall,
the author, as follows: "No clean
minded young lady need remain away
from the theatre while The Traffic
is being presented, for The Traffic is
as clean as an antiseptic bandage, no
matter how unnice the ailment be-
meath may be. l remember the night
saw The Traffic how certain men
had angrily declared that economic
conditions never effected morality and
that only girls who were born bad,
who wanted to be- bad, and who would
not be anything else, went to the bad.
In my judgement, these critics should
be sentenced to an indeterminate term
of attendance at the performances of
The Traffic. Written by good
woman, for every woman, it is play
that all women should see.

Doun-Stage
For THE PALIsADIAN !:
BY d. R. Noble


Washington Square Players
The new bill which the Washington
Square Players are presenting at the
Comedy Theater has proved one of
the most popular they have ever
given, and they are playing to almost
capacity business. AS with most of
their bills, four one-act plays are
given. These are Lovers Luck"
French comedy by Georges dePorto-
Richie, translated by Ralph Roeder;
"A Merry DEATH" a Russian harle-
quinade by Nicholas Evreinov, trans
lated by C. E. Bechhofer; Sisters of
Susanna" farce, by Philip Moeller,
and "The Sugar House," tense little
play of American life by Alice Brown.
One encouraging feature about The
Washington Square Players is that
their acting has improved to such an
extent that no longer can anyone &C
cuse them of being amateurish. All
their reviews of the opening, COM
mented on the advance which had
been made by the actors. This is due
in part to the development of the
original members of the company and
also to the addition of number of
new actors, prominent among whom
are Gladys Wynne, Jose Ruben and
Philip Tonge.
AS usual the stage settings of the
Washington Square Players are the
most artistic to be seen in the city.
On the present bill, there are two
sets of unusual beauty. The one for

"a Merry Death" was designed by
Robert Edmond Jones, who designed
the inner sets of "Caliaan," and more
recently has been working for the
Russian ballet Lee Simonson made
the design for "Sisters of Susanna"
and it is brilliant thing of rich blues
and yellows and oranges.
During the season the Washington
Square Players obligated themselves
to their subscribers to give five bills.
Just A Woman
will be the next weekly attraction
for the week of October 16, at the
Standard Theater
Broadway at Goth Street
Eugene Walters great play, Gust
a Woman" which created furrore
in New York last season when it was
produced at the 48th Street Theater,
where it played to overlooking audi
ences for six months.
In Gust Woman" Mr.. Walter
shows that he has lost none of his
mastery of dramatic situation and
skill in devising big, emotional eli
makes. This latest play from the
gifted dramatist who wrote "The
Easiest Way" and "Paid in Full" is
worthy of his genius. 1t is a genuine
American drama in story, character
atmosphere, spirit and treatment.
Moreover, it is on timely subject.
It's theme has been an issue in recent
years in which the public has mani
rested keen interest.
The story of "Just Woman" con
Germs an iron worker in a Pennsyl-
vania steel mill who rises from the
lowly position to great wealth and
alfiuence, but he becomes ashamed of
the loving helpmate who worked by
his side during the days of struggle
and seeks to divorce her by framed-up
testimony. For this purpose he con-
spires with the head of a private de-
tective agency, brings his suit and
charges lnnoelity. In the court OF
law the paid perjurers give their false
evidence against the stricken wife and
mother. She retaliates in frenzied
outburst and declares on the stand
that the perjured testimony is not
only true, but that her husband is not
the father of the little boy the court
awards o his custody. Therefore, she
claims her son.
This produces a most unlooked-for
denounment, and right here the power
of Mr.. Walter shines. Gust a
Woman" has vitality, power and
drama and its people are, real with
convincing emotions. AS satisfying
evenings entertainment, it not only
surpasses Mr.. Walters former big
successes, but any drama that has
been presented in years.
