both American and native charac-
tiers that help to form a pleasing
dramatic background.
Oliver Morosco, under whose per-
sonal direction the play is produced,
has become known as a daring man
ager, inasmuch as each year he has
given his public a new Luana, and
this year again will offer a new
conner, Miss May Buckley, who has
appeared here in several New York
successes. She will be supported by
David Landau, in his original part
of the beach-comber; Ethel Remey
as the American girl; Forrest
Stanley, as the white husband Of
Luana; Robert Z. Morris, as the
Yankee trader; James Nelson, as
the high priest; Laura Adams, as
the foster mother; James Apple
bee, as the missionary; Fanny Yam
tbs, as the wife; Mabel Emerson, as
an Hawaiian girl; John Gribner, as
the Hawaiian lover, and last, but
not least, the Hawaiian SINGERS and
players. whose sweet plaintive mu-
sic plays one of the important parts
of the play. The scenery is a strik-
ing feature and each and every act
is a triumph of scenic skill, espec-
tally the last scene. showing Mt.
Kilauea, in volcanic eruption.

". What I most remember about
that early period of my career is
that 1 developed all By myself. and
unconsciously in a way, a natural
method Of acting.
My brother used to come to me
and demonstrate with me for not be-
ing more theatrical. Why he
would say. you are just the same
on the stage as of. That's not act
ing"
1t was no doubt the late James A
Herne who confirmed the still
youthful Hodge in the simplicity Of
his acting Herne did not, however.
as so many critics have taken it for
granted. plant the original seed o.
put Hodge, his disciple, through a
special schooling of naturalism
Herne himself recognized Hodges
innate talent and never interfered
with his characterization of Free
man Whitmarsh in Sag HarbOr."
He predicted the big hit scored by
Hodge as the droll down-east paint
er and village gossip.
Hodges Freeman Whitmarsh had
a sort of twin brother in his Ste
phen Tully, ''the boy who threw fits"
in Edward Kidder's SKY Farm"
His recent portrayal of young Jim
| Whitman in The Road to Happi-
ness" was also of the village type,
but decidedly more important in its
thorough Americanism. Two &c
centric types were his Capt. Plum
mer in George AIDES Peggy From
Paris and his Mr.. Stubbins in Mrs.
Wigs of the Cabbage Patch" In
almost any other hands Stubbins
might have proved a mere groesoue
Hodge made OF this drink-loving,
wife-hunting character a real human
i being. full of an oddly humorous
appeal.
In Daniel VOORHEES, Pike, which
/ he played in Booth Tarkington's
The Mar From Home" the distinct
ly American type was advanced
from the village to the small city
/ type. This role also inspired Hodge
with the ambition to do a large city
type of national character, and it is
just this ideal type that he now be-
lieves he has attained in the new

1.-THE BIRD OF PARADISE"

Seldom does a play. especially a
drama. play overtime in any large
cities, and if it does. there must be
something especially pleasing to the
theatergoers. and this is the case
with Richard Walton TUlly's mystic
play of Hawaii. THE Bird Of Para
disc, which comes to the Oliver
theater this evening.
Mr.. Tully seems to have struck
a popular vein in his story Of the
pathetic little Hawaiian princess,
Luana. who meets an American,
with whom she falls in love and
they eventually marry. She then
learns. like many before her, that
marriage between the dark-skinned
race and the white. is seldom OF
lasting nature. and when cast aside
by her white husband, she returns
10 her people and makes repara-
ton by sacrificing herself 10 the
Goddess Pele to save her people
from the volcanoes wrath. He also
tells another story which deals with
a drunken beach-comber. who has
sunken as low as man can sink
through drink, but is brought back
TO the light" through the good in
huence of an American girl. and
they go out into the world happy
in each others love. These four PEG.
pie form the main theme Of the

HODGE MASTER OF AMERICAN
TYPE.

William Hodge is the leading in
terpreter OF the native American
type on our stage today. lie proves
this again in Fixing Sister" now at
Maxine Elliott's theater.
THE Man From Home" THE
Road TO Happiness" and old Sag
Harbor," have all profited by the
peculiar abilities of Mr.. Hodge.
The star OF Fixing Sister" was
almost brought up in the theater
He began as a property boy with a
small repertory company in Penn
sylvania. Soon he attracted the
managers attention and was given
small parts.
He "trouped" for several seasons
among the little villages and towns
of Pennsylvania and his native
state of New York. playing every
kind of part known in the catalog
Of these repertory organizations. He
was a hero one night and a villain
the next.
In time the persevering young ac-
tor succeeded in forming a roper
tory company of his own. He was
not only leading man and stage
manager, but owner and producer
as well. This was all while he was
yet in his teens. An elder brother,
who had had experience in circus
life, was finally made a manager Of
the company, but William Hodge
controlled all its variegated destin-
les. He even wrote plays for his
little company.
L have forgotten even the names
Of most Of the dramas I wrote in
those days" Mr.. Hodge said recent

Advance i'm Prices
Studebaker Cars

On or about December lst, the prices Of
Studebaker cars-both the FOUR and the SIX
will be advanced from ST. to 500 over pre-
vailing prices.
In the face Of the rapid increase in the cost
OF the materials entering into the construction
OF Studebaker cars, present prices have been
maintained But now conditions in the industry
have reached point where Studebaker is forced
to add substantial increase to these prices.
For the past eighteen months there have been
rapid advances IN the cost of all raw materials en-
tering into the manufacture of automobiles-es-
pecialy on steel Of all kinds pig iron, castings;
stampings, sheet metal, aluminium leather and up
holsterng materials And these advances range
all the way from 40% to 5O%
Studebaker has always been satisfied with
small margin OF proht-and you may rest assured
that, even with substantial increase over prevail
ing prices, both the FOUR and the SIX will still
be the most powerful seven-passenger cars In the
world at their prices. And you will still have to
pay from $500 to $500 more to equal them in
power, roominess, economy, beauty OF design, and
all-around dependablllty.
Our allotment of Studebaker cars at
the present prices IS very limited and
is likely to be exhausted at any time.
So ii YOU want to save from SD to
500, we urge you to come at once.
