with Sergt. Arthur Guy Empey of
"Over the Top" fame, and Miss Rose
Stahl, in the stellar roles, have found
that this new comedy by George c.
Hazleton is especially attractive to
the women, not only for the distinct
but the play shows the camp life OF
the United States Army as their sons
and brothers really experience it. The
effect is to allay many fears and ap-
prehensions. The boys ara seen be-
coming manly in clean. healthfuf sur
roundings and any idea that life in an
Army camp is detrimental to their
welfare is effectually set at rest.
Wholesome comedy is the dominant
feature Of the play.
Between the acts Sergt. Empey will
deliver an address. in which he viii
describe conditions at the front and
tell some Of his famous war sttories.
His role is that of a youthful Irish
American, happy and carefree, who is
eager to go over the top for Uncle
Sam. Miss Stahl appears as his pa
triotic mother who is thoroughly in
accord with his desire to do his bit.
The excellent supporting company in
cludes Frazier Coulter, John P. Wade,
Florence Martin, Niette Barrett. Har-
old Vosburgh, Clay Carroll, Emily
Fftzroy, Martha McGraw, Nathaniel
Sack and the Liberty Male Quartet.
The scenic effects are both novel and
attractive. The play was staged un-
der the personal direction of Collin
Kemper.

bert production scheduled for a

Hearts of the World" is rich in his
toric interest but its love romance
is of today. It's principals are natur-
al types transplanted from sunny
Flanders. The burst of cannon and
rattle Of machine guns merely ac-
centuates the wistful devotion Of the
youthful lovers. who are impersona-
ted by Robert Harron and Lillian
Gish.
The musical score, interpreted by a
symphony orchestra of thirty, is a
notable feature.
