On Thursday of last week
practically all of the 70 surrender
ed German battleships, cruisers
and destroyers lying at anchor at
Scapa Flow, off the coast of Scot
land, were sunk by the German
crews on board. At a concerted
signal, the seacockS on each YES
sci we're opened, the waters rush
ed in and the vessels sank.
And so again is the world treat
ed to German treachery. 1t was
a gross breach of the terms OF
the terms of the armistice. But
then who expected anything bet
ter of a German? Their minds
are attuned to deceit, trlckery
and dishonor. And now even
though peace is about to be for
mally signed, it would be we'll for
the world to. keep close watch
else within the next decade the
peace treaty will be treated as a
scrap Of paper, and the Huns
once again set out to rule or ruin

BLOWING A STAR OUT OF TEXAS

Charlotte Walker. who is being pre-
sented this week at the Shubert-Gar-
rick Theater by the Selwyns with
Ernest Lawford. in the Roi Cooper
Megrue comedy. Tea for Three" is
a native of the storm-rdden State OF
Texas, having been born in Galveston
Her ancestors were early settlers Of
West Texas and in 1856 emigrated to
the Coast. where they obtained a grant
of land from the Comanche Indians,
growing up with and being closely
identified with the development Of the
State.
When a very young girl Miss Walk
er had been introduced by Joseph
Physioc, one of the best-knovn and
most successful scenic artists, to the
late Richard Mansfield In a spirit Of
fun. Miss Walker had appeared as an
extra" girl in several Of Mr.. Mans
fields plays and she stored away in
her mind the fact that IL she ever did
have to earn her living. she would
adopt the stage-which had sown its
seed of allurement in her brain In
1900. when the greatest of all storms
laid waste the Walker plantations,

FAMOUS FRENCH SCORE.

Walter Damrosch. coductor of the
New York Symphony Orchestra: has
just received from France the score
of Vincent d'Indy's Third Sym
phony. which the distinguished
French composer has only. recently
completed. The score, which is
dedicated to Commandant E. de
Pampelonne, has as a subtitle DE
Bello Calico" this quotation from
Caesar being peculiarly apt mas
much as the symphony was COM
posed during the years 1916. 1917
and 1918 in the very midst of the
most terrible of Gallic wars. The
Third Symphony which is thus NJ.
dIndy's reaction to what has been
perhaps the greatest crisis in his
nations history. will be conducted
for the first time in America by
Mr.. Damrosch at the coming con-
certs of the Symphony Society of
New York and will in all prob
ability prove one of the supreme
novelties of the year.

Able Cast Chosen
For Rupert Hughes
"The Cup Of Fury"

With an able cast selected with
great care. The Cup OF Fury" an
Eminent Authors Production from
the book by Rupert Hughes, is illus
tratiye of how convincing a picture
can be If its players are exactly suit
ed by type to their parts.
Helene Chadwick has one OF the
most dramatic roles OF her career
as Mamise. Her sweetness and SIM
plicity win quick sympathy for the
girl whose innocent confidence in her
foster parents leads Der into a trap
set by the secret service for a band
of German conspirators. As the story
reaches its climax Miss Chadwick
has an opportunity to bring into play
the most OF II.
Rockclifre Fellowes combines in
Davidge. multure and chivalry with
manliness and loyalty. and makes him
a cleancut young fellow of pleasing
personality whose ire it is not safe
to arouse. Davidge's persistent court
ship of Mamise and his final success
in winning her furnishes the vein of
romaDce that runs through the story.
Sydney Ainsworth is very prom
inent in the early part Of the picture
as Verrinder. a secret service man
who does not understand the meaning
of defeat. Clarissa Selwynne as Lady
C1ifton-Wyatt, is cold, naughty
aristocrat. Kate Lester and Herbert
Standing as Lord and Lady Webbing,
are excellent. Their work as Mamise's
foster parents Is little short of perfect.
Frank Leigh has the despicable part

SIDELIGHTS ON THE CINEMA

bitter and costly experiences out OF
which our present political and civic
blessings have been secured; while 1t
also inculcates the most salutary les
sons in respect to the harsh judgments
which We are often too ready to pro-
nounce upon those whose nationality
or whose faith may differ from our
own"
The development of photo-play-
wrighting has followed a course that
has finally led to a broad application
of the same principles that have
been found to produce the best re-
suits in the preparation of plays for
the articulate stage. The steps by
which progress has been made are
clearly defined. First, anything that
moved upon the screen was consid-
cred a marvel of ingenuity-the
mere fact Of recorded motion was
epochal and centered interest for
many months. With the origin of
pictured narrative as a means OF
entertainment. plot was of little con-
sequence SO long as the star of the
feature" was permitted to cavort
grotesquely upon the silver sheet.
Then came the familiar combination
of star and director as a means of
attracting a public. regardless of the
dramatic merit of the vehicle. To-
day things are different.
Passing lightly over the recent af-
filiations of authorial groups with
this producing company and that.
there are coming to be associated
with the screen a constantly increas-
ing number of the most distinguish
ed names in literature. Among
contemporary fctionists who have
written for the camera are Cyrus
Townsend Brady. Robert w. Cham
bers. George AIDE. George Randolph
Chester, Rex Beach. Rupert Hughes.
Irwin 8. Cobb and a host Of others.
Their contributions have helped i'm
measurably to elevate the standard
of silent drama from the single
standpoint of dramaturgy and A.
delity to life.
Now another forward step has
been taken by the detection into the
channel of the motion picture of the
critical as well as creative minds
associated with the theater. Louis
Sherwin. for years dramatic critic
of the New York Globe, has turned
his talents to the construction of
scenarios. His first original work is

Frederick will be seen for the first

Megrue received hundreds Of letters
from persons who had viewed his
play inquiring whether or not he was
a married man
They had been puzzled over his source
OF information because he had caught
the feminine viewpoint OF married life
so completely. not only in his lines.
but in the situations Of the story.

mitting bachelorhood. always stated
that while one may write one thing in

one writes from personal experience.
