EASTER CONCERT AT DREXEL
Orpheus Quartet Presents Song Cycle
"In Fairyland"

The Orpheus Quartet, a well-known en-
semble organization of this city, was the
chief contributor to the program in the an
nual Easter concert in the Drexel Institute
free music series. These concerts serve an
admirable purpose of musical missionary
work and the auditorium is always crowded
with those who have little other opportunity
to hear the best In music
An attempt is made to vary the programs
throughout the season so that there will
be no monotony. Thus at Christmas carols
and Nativity music was in order and at
later concert the Rich Quartet gave an ex-
cellent program Of chamber music. On other
programs noted singers and Instrumental
lists have appeared.
The Easter concert had a touch of nov
city in form and quite the vernal touch in
subject since Orlando Morgan's interesting
and melodious song cycle, "In Fairyland,"
was given. This work consists Of a num-
Der Of graceful lyrics appropriate to the
season set in the form of solos, duets and
quartets. The singers were Edna Harwood
Baugher, soprano; Mabelle Addison, con-
tralto; Henri Merriken. tenor and Donald
Redding, baritone. William Sylyano
Thunder was the accompanist The various
vocalists were also heard i'm other num-
bers

Old Fashioned, but Efficient,
Comedy Brings Elsie Fergu-
son Back to the Broad

Shirley Kaye Is the sort Of play that
makes you wish you were ten years young
er. Go to the Broad imagining that you'd
never seen comedy, never been in the
atre, before. How Elusive and enthralling
1t all will seem! How fetching the society
atmosphere. how delightful the lavender
and pink-lighted reception rooms and libra
ries, how ripping that wonderful girl who
can make finger rings out of financial
giants II you can put the clock of the
years back, you will come beneath the spell
of titles and buffers with crooked elbows
and speeches that launch themselves against
"the elegant dlssipated idlers who sit on
the backs Of workers" and leave the idlers
crushed and quvering.
Yes, the first visit to the playhouse Is
the best For It has no background to
make comparisons necessary, II odious, and
no standard of critical judgment to put the
mental metronome above the heartbeat II
you are very young, you will like "Shir-
ley Kaye" It Is quite an old-fashoned, yet
by no means incompetent. comedy. It
boasts lovely and intelligent star. But 1t
is ingenious to a degree. 1t presumes that
the American theatre is In the same state
that 1t was when things like "The Walls of
Jericho" were 'the co. and the mechanical
to their burrows.
Technically, Hubert Footner. the hith-
erto not-well-known author Of the piece, has
not lot to learn. His workmanship is
usually sound, his sense Of the footlights
adequate. his farcical spirit fairly keen.
Furthermore, he dis plays. now and then, an
insight into feminine wiles and guiles not
unlike that Of the late Clyde Fitch. He
knows that womaniy persuasiveness linked
with sound brain-stuff is apt to succeed
where pretty Incompetence would not. So
do not squirm, you oldsters. II he uses (or
fnisuses) this faculty and makes his gifted
and beautiful heroine turn the tables on n
combination of sharp railroad managers
Perhaps 1t Is not Life. Mr. Footner evil
IDENTIFY believes that the dramas laws the
dramas patrons give. Only hasn't he for-
gotten that these patrons. many Of them
have grown up intellectually as well as in
years?
So much for the play. The playing is de-
cidedly good. Miss Ferguson could hardly
fail to lend her personal grace and her
charming sensibility to Shirley. She places
within the part all her old vigor and mood
contrast and plastic witchery of face and
form. Emotional twists she nicely conveys
and she Is generally sympathetic. One bad
fault she has accumulated-a curiously un-
real thick method Of speech when she is
saying nothing in particular. When the
lines rise up into any sort Of meaning (not
when they become such things as: I'm the
reed he the wind'D. the fine clarity OF
her organ resumes Its former sway over
the ear George Backus, Lee Baker and
Mrs Martin are the best of the support. The
latters social pusher is very clever, indeed,
even IL a bit farced. Mr.. Baker does the
Insulting engineer in a manly manner.
Shirley Kaye passes judgment on herself
in one sentence: I'm only imitation Eng
lish," Still, she is not bad imitation at
that. B. ID.

A PAIR OF SKIES WINS
KNICKERBOCKER AUDIENCE
Peoples Sparkling Farce Heralds Re-
turn of Stock to West
Philly House

"A Pair Of Skies" that sparkling farce
which delighted Broadway several seasons
ago and also entertained theatregoers Of
this city. was accorded reception at the
Knickerbocker last night which would seem
to indicate that it has a well-defned place
in the popular-price field.
A new leading woman made her first
appearance with the popular organization
in the person Of Miss Ruth Robinson, who
was known to Philadelphia playgoers as an
actress Of ability. Cast in the leading
female role she showed her friends who
flocked out to witness her entrance into
work in the West Philadelphia organiza-
ton that their appraisement Of her had
been correct.
The complications of the piece are provo
cative of no end of mirth. Situation after
situation drew house-rocking laughter from
the audience, who greeted those Of the old
company who returned with the greatest
of cordiality. AZ

PEG o. MY HEART RETURNS
AGAIN; BRIMFUL AS EVER
Easter Monday Production Of Popular
Manners's Play Roundly Applaud
ed at the Walnut

A better r-than-usual production Of peg
o. My Heart" came to the Walnut Street
Theatre last night. and though this Manners
play has been tried with varying success
by road and stock companies many times II
never seems to lose It's freshness. This
stand at the Walnut for the enusing three
weeks will probably sound the death knel
Of an old favorite for travelling companies,
when It shall be taken over by stock COM
panies.
Last nights performance was in exact
accord with the joyful post-Lenten season
The players went obout their work with
earnest vigor and Carewe-Carvell In the
titular role added the charm of youth to
well-founded ability and eventually she
thoroughly delighted as the whimsical Peg.
The tale Of an Irish lass who enters the
household Of the lordly Chichesters and
their unavalling efforts to polish the man
ners of the reluctant Peg is thoroughly
familiar to theatregoers of other years. A
successful play must have a love affair, SO
to make the story real interesting young
and handsome English nobleman is car
rled away by the sweet frankness Of Peg.
Now we see Love Affair No 2, but not
quite as successful as Pegs. Her snobbish
cousins heart Is carried away by a married
some mean treatment to Peg, the Irish girl
does not resent It and returns good for evil
shows her cousin the folly of her ways
and the engagement is broken off.
Miss Carew-Carvel as Peg Is wholesome
and lovable. The part of Jerry is played
by ~ Murray Stephens, the role of Mrs.
Chichester Is capably handled by Clara
Sidney and Vera Shore is in the role of
Ethel.
