YOUNG FRANCES CAPLES
By HERMAN J. MANkIEWICZ

TT is, you might say. almost a bio
i logical necessity that the worm
should turn. In fact, if you came
to look the matter up, you'd very likely
find much more balm in Gilead than
appears on the surface. Every cloud
has at least an imitation silver lining,
if YOU are one of those impatient ones
who can't wait until the clouds roll by.
A little more than year and half
ago those of US who know our lbsen
and find him wanting, and to whom
Shaw is not a dramatic amusement,
but a female cuss word, were hard
pressed for entertainment. Our lives
were empty, and, to all intents and
purposes. finished Whereupon Will
lam Rock, who can always be relied
upon in emergencies of this kind, ap-
peared in the familiar ofing with one
whom, for the purposes of euphony
be called Frances White. Everything
changed at once. The old crouch dis
appeared, to be replaced by a wide
and permanent grin. The clear-toned
chuckle replaced the raucous rasp.
The Mississippi became our favorite
river. The law of averages was vindi-
Gated.
The rise to success OF Frances White
is now a familiar story to those who
rely for their amusement upon the
theatres. and not the debates in Con
cress. But to secure additional infor-
nation for an anxious world we sought
her out and got her story at first hand.
She is now adorning "Hitchy- Koo,"
the merry melange at the Cohan &
Harris.
The first and lasting impression that
one gets from Miss White is that OF
New-York tribune., 1917-06-17

dignified modesty. Success has not
turned her head. Four years ago, as
she herself says, she was singing. Illus
trated songs in little movie theatre
in Los Angeles; to-day she is being
featured on Broadway. And yet her
perspective has not been altered. Her
present work in the music halls, though
She enjoys il immensely, is 10 her but
a step upward. She confessed that she
was studying hard, specializing IN
French. with a desire ultimately 70
trod the legitimate stage.
Just about at this point, TO be quite
frank. there entered distinct but
feeting suspicion: il seemed that, after
all. this was going 20 be just one OF
those interviews. In another minute she
would tell about the ancestral man
sions in dear old Fairfax County before
the war. But Miss White was so dis
tinctly in earnest. and her ambition TO
do the legit was so obviously sincere.
that the suspicion just naturally van
ished. She was even able 10 analyze
her ambition, imputing it TO an histor-
ical dictum that temperamental ac-
tresses, small in size, were destined by
New-York tribune., 1917-06-17

nature for the legitimate stage. And
she will play Nora yet.
But 70 return to Los Angeles. AS be-
fore mentioned, she was singing IN a
movie theatre. and there Rock found
her. He gave her a small part in his
production of THE Candy Shop with
Maude Fulton). Then followed a brief
experience with $50 Long, Lefty, and
Blanche Ring, and then Broadway.
The rest needs no retelling.
Miss White is one of those peculiar
people who enjoy work. she confded
that she was exceedingly happy when
she was playing vaudeville, the New
Amsterdam Roof and several benefits a
day. Her philosophy is based upon the
good common-sense realization of the
fact that success is not constant, but
moving. She is not willing to quit be-
cause she has arrived; she is deter
mined TO keep arriving. She is. more
over thoroughly conscious Of what
william Rock has done for her.
II seems almost time 20 explain why
the caption overhead is Young Frances
Caples." Well. among other reasons,
that is her real name.

The transposition of "Baby Mine
into an intimate musical comedy
ought not TO be an overburdensome
,ask. Because BABY Nine" Heaven
knows was sufficiently intimate
farce.
The trend of the day in musical COM
edjes is toward this quality which is
called intimacy. It is not exactly the
word that describes it, but it will
serve. Probably it was first applied TO
piece BY Miss Elisabeth Marbury, the

BROADWAY AND ELSEWHERE
Very Good Eddie" nearly two seasons

Every Good Eddie" nearly two seasons
ago.
The intimacy in pieces of this char
acter, of course, does not grow wholly
out Of the comedians trick of taking
the audience into his confidence. If such
were the case, show like Watch Your
Step" would break into the intimate
class merely by reason OF the efforts
Of Frank Tinney. Neither does produc-
tion in small theatre guarantee in
timacy. for there certainly was nothing
particularly intimate abont "Yvette.'
1t is. rather. intimacy of story that
is concerned. The growth of the inti-
mate musical comedy has been coinci-
dental with the development of the
custom of making musical shows out
of last years comedies and farces. The
basis for the show having once been
the plot of comedy or farce, it is GER
tain to be more or less plausible and
perhaps even little bit human. Com
pared TO the absurdities of the made
to-order musical comedy story, it ap-
peals to an audience as having untold
humanness and warmth; the audience
finds itself really able TO enter into the
spirit of the thing, and the result is
the aforesaid intimacy.
The type OF musical comedy which
revolves around duke, princess and a
masked ball is visibly on the wane. II
has already been almost entirely re
placed by the intimate variety, and in
another season the substitution will be
complete. The fashion of making mu-
sicsl shows out of plays is growing
THE College Widow" "The Aviator"
Baby Mine" and "Sweet Kitty Bel
lairs" are only a few of the pieces that
will blossom forth in musical form next
year.
The intimate piece, of course. will
not impinge on nor compel any altera-
tion of the spectacular revue like the
"Follies" or the Winter Garden pro-
ductions. Not, at all events. while the
public evinces its present unsuitable ap-
petite for patriotic finales.

FACE PUBLIC APOLOGY.

The Nez Perez county council OF
defense has forced a public apology
from H. H. Wahl, formerly of Gift
ford now residing at Charleston, for
circulating untrue and disloyal re-
ports against the Red Cross. The
particular report was to the effect
his wife had pinned a note to the
socks she knit for the Red Cross
showing it was she had knit them.
Later she received word from the
party receiving them-the socks had
been sold to him by man in Alaska
for $3.50. During the Red Cross
membership campaign conducted in
Idaho the past week solicitors heard
many similar false reports. The Nez
Perez council of defense cited VAIL
to appear before it and the following
apology was later authorized:
For making statements whose
tendency is to impede and obstruct
the military preparations of the
United States while at war and
particularly to reflect upon the
Red Cross, | make open and pub
lie apology, and | pledge my word
of honor in the future to refrain
from every act and utterance that
might have the effect of impair
ing in any way the military
effectiveness of the United States
or obstructing any of the civilian
organizations that are doing war
work. Dated this 18th day of
December, 1917.

Chamberlain's Tablets.

Chamberlain Tablets are intend
ed especially for stomach troubles,
biliousness and constipation, and
have met with much success in the
treatment of those diseases. People
who have suffered for years with
stomach trouble and have been un-
able to obtain any permanent relief,
have been completely cured by the
use of these tablets. Chamberlain s
Tablets are alo of great value for
biliousness. Chronic constipation may
be permanently cured by taking
Chamberlain Tablets and observing
the plain printed directions with each
bottle.

Soldiers at the cantonments would
rather see service at once on the
battle lines as privates than go later
as officers. In many instances en-
listed men eligible for admission to
officers training schools have re-
fused to apply because they feared
the work would lessen their chances
Of immediate active service in Eu-
rope.
In one division, with $50 men to
be selected for training schools, only
40 would apply. The rumor was
abroad in camp that the division
would sail before the work at the
school was completed, and not until
the men were assured that the
schools would move with the divi-
sions were the quotas filled.

necessary to establish and operate
a hospital without asking outside
assistance except the provision of
shelter. This usually means a de-

group of huts or a number of large
and small tents.

ARTS OF PEACE
HELP OUT IN WAR

Included in the recent annual re-
port of Secretary Franklin K. Lane
is the following:
when the Bureau of Mines was
created by Congress five years ago
ii was hardly to have been imagined
that the methods used for the saw
ing of life in the coal mines of the
United States would become of vital
use in the problem of saving lives
and destroying lives in a world war;
yet this is just what has happened
THE soldiers kit, which was so
simple thing in other wars, has
had to be increased by gas mask
not unlike the helmet of a deep-sea
diver, with box of chemicals adap-
ted for ofisetting the effects of the
various kinds. of gas the enemy is
known to use.
When we came into the war we
found ourselves prepared with the
AnoWIeQge, the machinery, ana the
men to promptly meet the need of
gas masks in great quantity and of
superior type. Thus the men
who had been on this work of meet
ing the gases compounded in ma
turess laboratory were found to have
a reserve of knowledge as to what
gases will kill and what will choke
and what will burn and what will

CITY rs NOW LEFT
WITHOUT BAKERY
BOTH ARE CLOSED

The Rose bakery and the New
Home bakery both closed up Friday
night of last week and have moi
since reopened Fred Porter of the
New Home, in conversation with the
Republican representative, stated
that with the present price of flour,
coal and labor, it was impossible to
make bread and sell it at the price
set by the food administrator, in the
small quantities they must bake. A
week before closing, the bakeries had
consolidated on baking and were
doing the work of the two places with
one baker and one oven. 1t is not
probable that either store will be
reopened under present conditions.
An actual bread famine reigned in
town until Wednesday, as there was
none of the staff of life on sale and
many of the regular customers of the
bakerieswere not prepared to do their
own baking on short notice.

From the Presidents Message.

Let tEere be no misunderstood
ing. Our present and immediate
task is to win the war, and nothing
shall turn us aside from it until it
is accomplished. Every power and
pressure we possess, whether of men,
of money, or of material is being de-
voted and will continue to be devoted
to that purpose until it is achieved
I'VE shall regard the war as won
only when the German people say to
us, through properly accredited rep
resentatives, that they are ready to
agree to a settlement based upon
justice and the repara4ion of the
wrongs their rulers have done.
when this intolerable Thing,
this German power, is, indeed, de-
feated and the time come that we
can discuss peace--when the German
people have spokesman whose words
we can believe and when those
spokesman are ready in the name of
their people to accept the common
judgment of the nations as to what
shall henceforth be the basis of law
and of covenant for the life of the
world-we shall be willing and glad
to pay the full price for peace and
pay it ungrudgingly. We know what
that price will be. 1t will be full,
impartial justice--justice done at
every point and to every nation that
the final settlement must affect our
enemies as we'll as our friends"
