Miss Tempest at Colonial
Dainty Songstress Divides
Honors With Robert Haines

Florence Tempest divided the honors
with Robert Haines at the Colonial
yesterday. Miss Tempest kept her adj
mirers waiting till nearly . O'clock but
il was worth il. Then she appeared
Just before the exit march, which, by
some strange. coincidence, was called
pray for Sunshine"
Miss Tempest does her usual songs
dressed in the garb Of her ADOPTION
which shire wears so much more easily
than most members OF her sex: ne
LIZ and the Rose" which Miss Tempest
recited 10 music. was written Tor ner
by Marion Sunshine. .,-,
Robert Haines offers a sketch, Inc
One Way Out" which deals with far
too wcighty a subject to be disposed
Of In fifteen minutes. In that tine the
three characters. who, by the way
from the eternal triangle, settle a
question Of free love, the comparative
LOYALTY OF men and women and the
return Of disembOdied souls. Although
Mithrope Hastings proves 10 De ohly
emulating the return of Peter Grlmm,
he manages 20 hold the centre OF the
stage pretty cfcctually. There - ma
terial enough in the little sketch for
a three-act play.
Another sketch, which was evidently
an eleventh-hour thought, "The Spirit
of Hallo~eon, was not on the pro
gramme. This little play seems 70 be
quite as popular as it was last season.
FL Brendel and Flo Best received a
most enthusiastic welcome in waiting
for her" and Bill Bailey and Lynn
Cowan we're accorded a big share Of
the applause.
Others on the bill we're the Three
Johns, Alfred Bugen. Dooley and Mel
son and All W. Loyal's canine logue.

On the Screen
The Struggle Everlasting,
With Florence Reed, at
the 44th Street

"The Struggle Everlasting was pre-
scented by Harry Rapf at the Forty
fourth Street Theatre Sunday evening,
with Florence Reed as the star.
The picture is screen version Of
the play, which was originally pro-
duced by Henry 3. Harris.
Any one who saw Miss Reeds Lisha
in "The Wanderer" can readily IN.
derstand that she was admirably east
as Body in the new picture. This dar-
ing actress may do many things which
another actress could never do, FOR
she is as sparkling as champagne and
withal as lovely as only a Magdalen
has any right to be.
Milton Sills was admirably cast as
Mind. He has not done anything so
pleasing since his work in "The Honor
system" lie IL forceful, sincere,
handsome and thorough artist.
Irving Cummings, too, is excellent.
Who ever did the casting made no
mistake in choosing this ardent young
actor 90 play Soul.
No pains have been spared 20 make
the picture as perfect as q picture
may be. II is beautifully staged and
well produced. II is allegorical and
is described on the programme as a
supermodern morality play, but, IL
one does not care 10 be preached al.
one may at least be entertained. o.
course, in morality play, each VII
lain gets his deserts, and Mind and
Soul rise triumphant.
Besides the struggle which is con
tinually waged between Body. Mind
and Soul, there are the Pugilist, the
Musician. Worldwise, the Poet. the
Aristocrat. the wife, the Frail Sister
and the Shiny Thing, who contribute
little 70 tho struggle themselves.
Others in the cast are Wellington
Platter, Albert Hall, Fred Jones, Ed
win Hoyt and George Cooper. II. l.
