THE Brat" Maude Fulton's delight
full and refreshing comedy success
produced under the direction of Oliver
Morosco will be the attraction at
the Belasco Theater for one week be-
ginning tomorrow evening. This is
Mr.. Morosco's latest New York
comedy success and local playgoers
will no doubt, recall that THE Brat"
was given its first eastern showing
at the Bclasco Theater in this city
where it was received with genuine
approval after which Mr.. Morosco
took the play to New York where it
ran for an entire season.
THE Brat" herself is a little bit
of Eastside New York, whose shin

pony" chorus girl at the Hippo

novelist who takes her to, his home as

bubbling spirits. There is his mother.

bibulous butler and two affected
young women engaged in a cynical
contest for the attention of the novel;

conclusion from the authors kind
ness and is well on the way to a
heart break when her affections are
diverted to the younger brother who
takes a brace and finally carries her

the chagrin Of his proud relatives.

cent tax must be paid on each ad
mission ticket or fraction thereof
and it must be paid by the pa
tron. Hence on 81 ticket the
tax is 20 cents, while on a IS
cent ticket the tax is 8 cents.
The majority of thesters in
Washington will collect the tax
as soon as the ticket is purchased.
The new law wipes out the
free list entirely and dramatic
critics and all others who have
been accustomed to passes must
pay the 10 per cent tax in the
future.
While this tax is but a minor
one in its bulk, it is one that
will probably receive the most at
tention because Of the numerous
times il must be collected. But
in paying the new tax remember
that the theater is not charging
YOU any more for your ticket,
but is merely carrying out the
new law which requires them to
collect, and account for, the tax.
Stage Aids the Loan.
There is probably no phase Of
the activity of the Liberty Loan
campaign that has stood out so
distinctly as the work of the
stage and its people in promoting
the huge patriotic movement. In
Washington throughout the CAM
paign, the local theaters have al
lowed speakers to talk from the
stage every night, in an effort to
arouse enthusiasm and the work
in the playhouscs accounts, in no
small degree, for the Districts
splendid showing.
In New York and other cities
the workers of the stage have
been even more successful in per-
suading patriots to come across"
for Uncle Sam. During the past
week many of the thcater rallies
resulted in sales which ran into
six figures, the pledges being
made on the spot.
Added to this is the fact that
the people of the stage them
selves have bought many millions
Of the bonds.
The stage has always stood
ready and wiling to help any
csuse that served for the better
mcnt oi humanity and their Lib
erty Loan record ranks high
among their many other efforts.
