studio. The weird demands that are made
upon him are legion and he has never
failed In crisis. The only time he ever
even faltered was when he was ordered to
produce gushing oil welI. It was physi-
cally impossible to bring a gusher to the
studios but he told the directors he could
find the we'll he wanted-and he did

he played with Sir Henry Irving in Henry
VIII" Thomas a'Becket," king Lear"

After his season with Sir Henry he was

his system.
He was engaged by Arthur Bourchier,
playing with him during his entire London
season.
His career embraces engagements with
Sir Henry Irving, Sir George Alexander,
Sir Johnston Forbes-Robertson, and he has
created important roles in such plays as

THE CHAUTAUQUA
TAKES UP THE
DRAMA

| The representation of the drama upon
the Chautauqua circuit has been overlooked
| by theatrical chroniclers in their sum
| maries of the theatrical season and yet
here is n feature which is destined to be
| of untold benefit to the thcater. In the
| words of an official Of the Redpath Lyceum
| Bureau, with whom a representative of the
| New York Dramatic Mirror talked the
| other day. the Chautauqua circuit is blaz-
| Ing trail for the theater." I'VE are maxi
ing the drama appealing to communities
| throughout the United States which for
merly considered it as something cheap
and undeserving," he said, "and we are
being rewarded with financial success in
every instance"
When the Redpath Lyceum Bureau began
its activities last June for the season of
1916-17 its roster of attractions included
four theatrical organizations; a company
presenting Zangwill's racial drama, "The
Melting Pot; the Ben Greet Players;
company appearing in Percy Mackayes
bird masque, Sanctuary" and the Parish
Players, Chicago group Of actors who
present a repertoire of one-act plays.
"The Melting Pot" is touring the Kan
sas City circuit, which extends from Kan
sas City to San Francisco and return. In
the company are several well-known play
ers, including Theodore Doucet. Sanctuary"
is playing the Chicago circuit. which extends
from Michigan to Florida. Percval Vivian
acts the principal role in the masque. In
the Ben Greet Company which Is appear
Ing on the New York and New England
circuit in Shakespearean repertoire, are
Eric Blind, Margaret Wycherly, Frances
Carson, Horace Braham, Walter Kings
ford, Grace Halsey Mills and others. The
Parish Players, who are a combination of
a Little Theater and Community Roper
toire company, are also playing the Chicago
circuit.
I'VE first tried out a dramatic perform
ance on our circuits some five years ago."
said the Chautauqua man. "The results,
artistic and financial, were at once salts
factory and we decided to enlarge our
activities in this direction. We have now
passed the experimental stage and we feel
that we are helping in no small measure to
make the drama the great influence 1t
should be in this country.
We do not intend to go into the pres
entatlon of dramatic attractions on a large
scale including on our list only n sufficient
number to mako up varied program for
our audiences. Our selections will, of
course, be plays which carry a great and
uplifting message, plays OF sociological
and racial character, such as The Servant
Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1916-07-29

in the House and The Melting Pot Our
audiences are composed for the most part of
church-going people Broadway attractions
never penetrate to the majority Of towns
in our circuits and we believe that when
we present in them plays of a high order
we are carrying on the work of education
as we'll as that of entertainment"
The first of the Chautauqua meetings was
held on August L. 1874. They have grown
until at the present time they are being
held in over 1000 American cities and towns
II is estimated that by the end of the sea-
son in September, 10,000,O00 persons will
have paid admissions to Chautauqua tents
and auditorlums, and that approximately
$9,000000 will have been disbursed as gross
expenses for the holding Of Chautauquas
The towns which have Chautauquas range
in size, as n rule, from 5000 to 10000
population.

The motion picture unifies the

Stecher is called the boy in Over

Dodge, Neb.
He is just big boy, only y years
of age. In street clothes he looks
like a school boy. But beneath his
little checkered cap are more brains
than the average wrestler has and
beneath his neat fitting suit are arms
and legs of rare strength.
Stecher scales around 200, but
seems small for the weight. At that,
he is light for the heavyweight wres-
ting game. Most of the men he
meets outweigh him many pounds
and lot of them are of the ''bruiser"
type.
The boy has had ST bouts. He won
the American championship by de-
feating Charley Cutler, a veteran at
the game, then defended the title
against Americas, Hussane the Turk

FRIGHT TO LIVE" MOVIE DRAMA
OF SUNDAY CLOSING
"The Right to Live" a United Pho
to-Plays drama, will appear in the Of
fees of the movie censors in the next
few days to be slashed to pieces.
The story portrayed is one of pow
erful local interest. 1t has to do with
the Sunday closing law and its en-
forcement by man who resembles
Mayor Thompson in size and head
gear.
The father drives son and daugh-
ter from home while crazed with
drink. The boy goes to poolroom,
the girl to a dive. He tries to rescue
her and is sent to Jail after being
slugged in a cabaret.
Released from confinement, he is
handed a gun by political charac-
ter with the customary cigar and
told to "get" lawyer philanthropist
who wants the Sunday closing law
enforced. He fails once and sets out
for the lawyers Office to try again.
His father, working on a new build
ing, lets a girder fall, which injuries
his son.
Meanwhile the saloons are closed
and the home is happy again.
When Mayor Thompson refused to
act in the picture the plot was
changed a trif1e. Instead of giving
the mayor credit for his step, the
film asks why he did it-whether it
was.for the fear of being impeached
or a voluntary move.
