Strand.

The horrors of war are realistically
depicted in "Civilization," the big
Thomas H. Ince spectacle, shown at the
Strand the entire week.
Wonderful battle scenes IRE shown
with terrible realism. Aeropsanes ap-
pear in the sky, missiles. Of death and
destruction shoot from them, and build
ings are seen to go up in smoke and
then crumble into debris.
In one episode especially is the suf-
fering OF innocent women and children
brought to the mind of the spectators
most vividly. 1t Is the sinking OF
steamer by submarine. The liner is
seen sailing majestically on its way,
with women and children in holiday
mood on its decks; then the interior
of a submarine is shown while a tor
pedo is being launched at the liner.
The missile of death strikes the boat
squarely; panic among the passengers
ensues: a wild scramble for the life
boats: the capsizing of the frail craft
and women and children struggling
against death in the ocean follows.
Thus does one get a clear insight into
the terrible havoc inflicted by modern
warfare upon those who are innocent

New National.

Although "The House of Glass. in
which Mary Ryan appears at the New
National Theater. this week. is another
emotional drama in which the hard
heart of the New York detective fur
nishes the rock against which the hero.
inc skaters herself in tears. the author
has found several ways to avoid being
utterly commonplace For one thing,
there is no regular villain in the play.
although villainous circumstances are
present to make life burden for the
girl whose role is assumed by Miss
Ryan. Nor is there any one hero who
can command the spotlight In fact. the
heroics of the play are spread gener-
ously throughout = pleasant company or
competent actors. nearly all OF whom
are given the opportunity to make
speeches of the sort which allow them
to leave the stage with quick and dra
matte exit, followed by applause. These
episodes bear the stamp of that older
school of melodrafr.a where the heart
throb reigned supreme.
The House Of Glass tells the story
of Margaret Case. afterward Mrs. Lake,
who has served short penitentiary term,
charged with crime she did not COM
init. The fault of fssociety which makes
life hard for the person who bears the
taint of a false step. real or alleged. Is
the sinister note. The intolerance OF the
extremely upright man Is portrayed
through .he medium of Mrs. Lakes hus-
band, and the iron hand Of unfeeling law
is shown IN another hard police detec-
tive, who true to a set of stage tradf-
tions never smiles. and wears a brown
derby hat in the house while uncovering
a crime. The detective Is a bulldog.
an honest one at that He sets out to
catch Margaret Case. who to him is only
criminal who broke her parole. When
he finds her she is Mrs. Lake. wife of
great railroad executive. At that point
the story moves swiftly to a completely
happy ending. and the lesson Of kindness
and forgiveness Is apparent.
Miss Ryan's role gives her opportuni-
ties for the portrayal of great emotion,
in which she excels. These opportuni-
ties are frequent in the latter half Of
the play, where she makes the best Of
them. She is efficiently aided by her
supporting company, well balanced
one. There is a complete smoothness
of action which tells Of seasoned work.
Frederick Burt, who Is Harvey Lake in
the play, is one of the company who
has found a well-sustained quiet mood
for his role which carries considerable
logic and conviction. Harry C. Browne.
as Edward Mcclellan, has a dramatic
moment in the last act. which centered
attention upon him. much to his credit.
Findlay, Is much the same as similar
parts created in recent years. Others
in the cast are William Walcott, Ada
Gilman, Mary Gildea and Frank Thom-
as. The latter IL the "crook," who
mends his ways and becomes one OF
those to whom the herotcs are tntrust-
ed He takes good care of them, and
seems to make the most Of his oppor-
tunity.

ADJUSTMENTS
Relasco.

THE Boomerang" a delightfully."- re-
spectacle and thoroughly amusing play.
kept a capacity audience at the Belasco
Theater last evening in almost contin-
uous laughter. 1t is Belasco produc-
tion, and the program describes the play
as comedy in three acts by Winchell
Smith and Victor Mapes. But the i'm
probabilities and laughable absurdities
of farce are enthusiastically furnished by
the jealousy Of a lovesick young man,
a doctor who has never before had a
patient and a charming girl who has un-
dertaken the task Of being the doctors s
assistant just to have somebody in the
Office when he is away.
| Budd Woodbridge. an otherwise like
able, normal and honorable young man,
is madly in love with Grace Taylor and
Jealous of Preston de Witt. His mother
in alarm compels him to consult DR..
Gerald Sumner. The doctor at once
places his patient in charge OF demure
but attractive young woman. who after
creating new complications of jealousy
Is instrumental in bringing the story to
a joyously satisfactory conclusion.
The laughter begins In the opening
scene, Belasco setting in every par
ticular, when the doctor nonchalantly
enters his office singing a popular
no callers but young woman in search
Of a job, whom he engages as his Of
fee assistant because she wants to
learn to be nurse. There Is more
laughter when Budd and his mother
enter: still more when he undergoes
his examination, but some real acting
by Wallace Eddinger when he is forced
by desperation to declare the ailment
which affects him. The various stages
Of comical story reach a climax when
the doctor suddenly becomes afflicted
with his patients original disease. jeal-
ousy, and all because the doctor himself
has fallen in love with the pretty nurse,
who ultimately proves she is not quite
so unsophiSticated as she seems, when
she lures him into telling her how to
her knowing it,
The cast like the play, is effective.
Arthur Byron gives a realistic imper-
sonation of the doctor, who takes life
easily and is really quite overwhelmed
when he finds big practice forced upon
him through the advertisement of his
merits by Budd's mother; Wallace Ed
dinger, the lovesiek young man, who.
whatever may be his failings in that
respect, never once permits his char
acterization to deteriorate INTO persona

as Budd's mother. supplies delightful
comedy role, and Gilbert Douglas is the
polished young rival Of Budd. who is
always the gentleman, even If bit In
love with his own conceit and alive to
financial opportunities in love affairs.
The telling of the story gives no con-
ception of the mirth it conceals, and
none who saw the play is in doubt as
to why it had record run in New
York. or that it will duplicate that rec
ord in Chicago. whence 1t goes after

Garden.

"Romeo and Juliet" with Francis x.
Bushman and Beverly Bayne in the
title roles. is the film attraction at the
Garden this week. While the silent
drama" can never do justice to Shakes
peare in that it mutes 1iterature's
greatest voice. the scenic environment
Of the love tragedy of Verona. as por-
trayed in this photoplay, surpasses the
Limitations Of the stage, and, in a pic
torial sense. conveys a realism Of time
and place which the footlights have
not supplied. Streets filled with brawl-
ers of the opposing houses of Montague
and Capulet; the garden of winding
paths and ancient trees. through which
splendidly picturesque lover ap-
proaches a balcony Of real stone and
age,oid vines; the hungry church
Of the Capulets. and the shadowy oc-
cupants of that vault visioned by Ju-
lets terror in the potion scene, are but
chief features of a scenicalIy beautiful
whole. The story is well explained by
Shakespearean text and creditably act
ed by the picture cast.

Of the show, which has as one of it's

tuned girls, which adds to the gayety
Of the performance. and is forced to
respond to numerous encores.
In the company also are Sam Sidman,
Maxwell Sargent, Eugene Rauth.

and Stanley McAvoy. All effective in
their way. Much of the applause won
by these players went to Sam Sidman,
