Fine Entertainment at
The Vieux Colornbier

For the week beginning tomorrow
evening the Theatre du Vieux Colon
bier will present Dumas's "La Femme
de Claude, with Nine Van Doren,
whose brilliant performance as Geor-
gette Lemeunier few weeks ago
makes it reasonable to suppose that
she will be equally fine in a more dra-
matte role as Cesarine.
M. Copeau is to be congratulated on
his choice Of plays this season. The
Vieux Colombicr has been open only
six weeks, and already the names of
Brieux and Beaumarchais have ap-
peared on Its programmes. The di-
rector hasewisely refrained from feed
ing the public exclusively on plays
concerning what is known to the
French as "pamour," what is common
ly referred to by reviewers as "the
eternal Triangle" and what audiences
have been enormously taught to be-
lieve is the very essence Of French
life and dramatic art de Secret"
the opening bill Of the season, is
curious pathological study. "Blan-
cnette" deals with the revolt Of the
younger generation. Last week "Crain-
quebille," a pathetic idyl Of Partisan
street life, by Anatole France, and
"Le Wolfe du Bonheur," Clemenceau's
Oriental tragedy of disillusionment,
represented the Copeau company at its
best, both in acting and stage manage
ment.
Probably NJ. Copeau's managerial
duties were too heavy for him to chasten
the zeal of the passionate press agent
who announced one "frst performance
in America" when the play in ques-
tion had been given several times in
New York and also on the road. The
strongest part about this incident was
that Miss Susanne Revyl, now of the
Vieux Colombier, appeared in the
same play, although in a different part,
at one of its previous performances.
Perhaps she did not read the announce
ment Perhaps she was suffering from
temporary attack of aphasia. Usual
ly, however, the Vieux Colombier is
more circumspect in advertising its
wares. 1t is unquestionably place to
spend pleasant evening.

Famous Equesfrians
Join "Euerything''
AT Hippodrorne

Edwin Hanneford, manager and prin-
in Everything" at the Hippodrome, Is
the fifth of that name to be star rider.
Hanneford who was one of the clev-
crest straight riders in the English cir
Gus world, was the first to introduce
an element of rnpid-fre comedy in
circus act and adapt it for stage pro-
duction, with laughter alternating with
thrills. The act has produced host
of imitators, but the Hanneford family
ranks by itself.
The family has appeared together for
twelve years. The mother, Mrs. Eliza
/ beth Hanneford, was herself bareback
rider of distinction, of the Walter
Scott family, we'll known in the annals
of the English "white tops" Now she
acts as ringmaster for Edwin, George
Grace and the younger Elizabeth, all
of whom have been circus riders since
babyhood. The Hannefords do not use
the ordinary circus horses, broad Of
hack and rocking Of gait. They have
four of the fastest horses ever trained
for the ring, two of Irish breed, one Of
Belgian and one of American strain.
These have been added to the denizens
of the Hippodrome stables, which now
number thirty.
- This is their first appearance in an
American theatre. Because of the
speed of their horses, it is impossible
for them to play except on stage such
as that at the Hip" which permits a
large ring to be used.

also an actress Of very rare promise.

New-York tribune., 1918-11-17

A. week ago we lamented Just little
because practically every successful
American play dealt with Broadway
types. Now we are not so sure that
there is ground for complaint in re-
gard to this fact. When an American
dramatist undertakes to write play Of
life in the country he performs the
task by the simple expedient Of men
tioning spring ten times, the moon
eight times. roses twice and the old
swimming hole once.
We thought we had discovered the
when we heard character in recent
play speak of "liberty not license" but
this has rival. The line is reserved
for male characters, and it reads: "Of
course, I am no saint"
Edward Knoblock's new play, "Tigerl
Tiger!" has been called Extremely
daring" but it is hardly that. One sceno
in the first act is a bit stuffy, to be sure,
but the very thing which makes the
play colorless on the whole is that it
cannot possibly be as daring as it ought
to be. After all, if an author wants
to write story about passion which
has no grand gesture and exists solely
on the ground of physical sweep he
should tell his yarn in novel. The

FIND LITTLE USE
FOR YELLOW CARDS

my husband is not at home but I
think he world take a $50 bond. II
he doesn't I'n take one and pay for
lit by taking in washing"
This was the response received yes
terday by one committee soliciting
Liberty Bond subscriptions and indi-
Gates the spirit with which the nati-
on's call for war funds is being re-
ceived.
Another committee reported calling
on a widow lady who works hard to
support herself. Two of my boys are
already in the service she said. land
l have just had a letter from my third
saying he was going to enlist. 1 don't
know whether you have me rated for
a bond but if you have I'll manage
to pay for one somehow" The COM
mittee told her she had given more
than money and that such as she was
not expected to subscribe.
This same committee found a young
man sick in bed. much in debt and
without funds. Il haven't any money
he said. but don't want to be turned
in as Stacker. When I get up I'n be
able to do something" The commit
tee advised him not to worry about
being classified as a Stacker.
Another committee turned in a re-
port of man, rated for a $1,000 bond.
refusing to make any subscription.
Later his wife came to the committee
and handed a check for $1,000. bear
ing her signature. She had that much
money of her own and didn't propose
to have her family put in the yellow
class.
These are only few of the many
heartening responses encountered by
the soliciting committees yesterday.
There were numbers OF cases where
no bonds were taken but few in which
the proper spirit was manifested.
Numbers of persons of small income
are buying Thrift Stamps with ali the
quarters they can spare and they were
not pressed to subscribe to the Lib
arty Loan.
So far only very few yellow cards
have been turned in. These alleged
slackers will be given a final oppor-
unity to make subscriptions before
heir names are certified to for pub
ication.

the amount of bonds subscribed

other precincts that the city had at

Though the Third Liberty Loan

there will be no heavy subscriptions
