gains his acquiescence to give up his
apartment in favor of a newly married
ouple the anticipation Of the situa-
ton that will naturally follow Is so
strong that there is u murmur Of
laughter from all parts Of the theatre.
And when the bridal couple arrive and
the husband tells his bride that he alb
hors pink, for something always hap
pens when any one wears pink, there Is
another outburst OF laughter, for the
audience knows that Chaumet will not
only enter the room at 10 o'clock but
that he will be wearing pink pa jamas.
This motivation for the situation
which will follow is so clearly set
forth that the minute the clock begins
to toll the hour OF 10 the laughter
breaks into roars which never cease
until the curtain drops on the act. In
all my experience in the theatre have
never heard such laughter as greets
the situation when the newly welded
husband. after going to the station for
his brides jewel case, returns and dis
covers the hat and coat Of man in the
closet in his wife's apartment and
PUSHES about from room to room to find
him, finally discovering the intruder
being hustled out OF the door-,n pink!

been written in the past Ave years and
all the bright lines of a score OF sue

ton in Keep 1t to Yourself

CHARLES OF A FAMOUS LINE.

The vicissitudes OF stage life are
strikingly illustrated by the career Of
Charles w. Ravel, famous clown Of
bygone days, who now is the I'M
heralded Old King Cole in the Toyland
scene OF Everything" at the Hippo
drome. Charles is the only stage sur
vivor OF the celebrated Ravel family
Of pantomimists who created a furore
in Paris as far back as 1903, and
played a sensational engagement at
the Drury Lane Theatre, London,
twelve years later.
Coming to New York in 1880 the
Ravels achieved a phenomenal success
at the Castle Garden Theatre. Alter
mating engagements in Europe and
America, in which they often played
before royal personaees, added to their
fame. In 1864 the elders Of the family
retired from the stage, each one hav-
ing amassed a competence. Charles
Ravel was born in New York and APP
peared with hi, renowned family from
early boyhood until they retired. En-
gagements with Poole and Donnelly
and with George l.. Fox as Harlequin
in "Humpty Dumpty" followed. which,
judging from press notices carefully
treasured delighted the public and
gained for him a great reputation
Later ne ventured forth as a manager
and prospered until burned out at the

OF the act so that there was no ocean
that night. The next evening "Vir-

new member of the company led on
the other supers before TR0inius had
killed his daughter and thus a Sec
ond play was ruined. But after that
he learned and before the season was
over he was playing important roles
with O'Neill. with whom he remained
four years, gaining invaluable expert
ence.
Since that time the actor has passed
nine years in stock companies all
over the country and in Australia
Many times Broadway seemed near,
but something always happened to
prevent him from tasting the fruits
OF his labor until Windchell Smith
and John L. Golden picked him for

:. r F there is an absolute panacea for
care" said Helen Holmes, who
plays the wife of Channel in
Keep 1t to Yourself to the reporter,
that panacea is laughter. That. to my
mind, is the principal reason why farces.
providing they possess mirth provoking
situations. score solid successes. The
public wants to laugh. And 1t wants to
laugh especially at this time. when the
dark clouds which have been lowering
over us for the past four years have
been dispelled and conditions are grad
ually becoming normal. Normal or alb
normal. however, the public wants to
laugh. 1t is the safety valve of pent
up human emotions.
II don't say that all successful plays
are confined to the farce of this type,
but 1 do maintain that plays OF other
types which have become successes
have done so, in the majority of cases,
by reason of their laughing interludes.
I'm these days OF the theatrical en-
lcItdlnrnent, however, ldTCeS must pos
Sess something more than mere laugh
ter to appeal to audiences for any
length Of time. They must have a suf-
nciently interesting or amusing theme
to become talked about. A farce may
be extremely witty and the lines ex-
ceptionally clever. but II is the situa-
tons which furnish the apex of gen.
uine amusement.
"In Keep 1t to Yourself tho play, to
my mind. not only Is extremely bright
I'm lines and wit but the theme is ex-
traordinarily amusing and the s!tua-
lions excruciatingly funny. Take, for
instance, the situation in the first act,
when Chdumet is hypnotized and or

chamber. From the moment the waiter
