s'The Girl in the Limousine''
Another Bedroom Farce

Early last summer the coming pro-
duction Of a play called "Betty's Bed"
was rumored. Only ten minutes at
"The Girl in the Limousine,' which
opened at the Eltinge Theatre last
evening, were needed to convince the
audience that this was it. But if the
title has been modified it seems doubt
full whether any other beneficial
changes have been made.
Young Mrs. Neville is abed with
grip. Tony Hamilton, in the throes
of an unhappy love affair, is on the
sine. He falls victim of thugs, one
of whom, dressed in women's clothes,
begs for a lift. Tony is knocked sense
less, robbed and carried into the near
est house, which proves to be Mrs.
Neville's. AS the men are leaving one
fancies Tony's dress suit, his shirt
and shoes. In the dark they deposit
him under the sleeping Mrs. Neville's
bed. The rest of the piece fellows the
usual familiar formulae, including
narrow escapes, jealous husband, and
a solicitous and newly arrived aunt.
Given the situation, the dialogue is
q foregone conclusion. There was one
good line in the second act. Central,

think they see an obstacle that is

to Brest Again

Mike Gilhooley, Belgian war or

stowaway, made his fifth visit to these
shores yesterday as a passenger on the
transport OriZaba. He has made four
round trips across the Atlantic on
army transports and will make the last
leg of his fifth excursion within a day
or two, when the next eastbound troop
ship steams for Brest.
His persistency no longer is a source
of amusement to imm grafton officials
at this port. 1t was said at Ellis ISL
and that yesterday home bound soldiers
who hear his story for the first time
make it easy for Gilhooley to get
aboard westbound transports. His
ability as & craps shooter and his flow
of talk have won for him the admira-

RAYMOND Hitchcock Presents

At the Liberty Theatre last night

to rise and chatted amiably with late
corners, introduced the famous ones
to the rest of the house and announced
that his review was to be educational.
Therefore, when he leapt to a dark
stage, called for lights and disclosed
three enormous blackboards in place

1t is difficult to set the finger of ap-
proval on any one bit OF acting, comedy,
dance or combination OF those contrib

or mar a review, and which in this
case, were so consistently excellent.
Mr.. Hitchcock has gathered into the

comedians who can be uproarous y

introduced fashion show in novel

sumptuously and artistically staged
with lovely and unusual costumes.
Nothing seems to have been neglected

The New Treaty Text.

A new treaty text will result from
the modification of terms agreed upon
by the allies for presentation to the
German delegates, probably next Mon
day. This, it is stated, results from
the discovery that it was impractieable
to append the changes to the old text,
as the notifications, though not ma
terial in principle, affect many parts
of the peace covenant. This, it is
noted, renders obsolete the text pub
lished by the Senate this week, upon
the discovery that copies were in cir
culation in this country.
Possibly the publication of the
treaty has caused the decision to re-
cast the whole text quite as much as
the difficulties of revision. In any
case, it is rather immatefial, inasmuch
as the text as it was published the
other day was obviously subject to re-
vision and had been in all practical
particulars accurately Summarized in
the official statement of its contents
previously proclaimed.
The Senates inquiry into the cir
cumstances Of the presence of the
treaty text in this country has result
ed in rather ludicrods disclosure of
circumstances that in no wise reflect
upon anybody in authority. The text
was brought here by one who had an
Official right to it and who was not
obligated to keep it strictly secret.
Evidently from this one copy came
multiplied reports. Senators we're
quite justified in their feeling that
they had been ignored, and it was we'll
that the inquiry was ordered to set at
rest the feeling on the subject.
In the light Of the experience with
the first draft Of the treaty it is to be
hoped that there will be no attempt
at secrecy in connection with the Sec
ond and presumably final text. 1t will
be far better to have the full teat
made public simultaneously with its
Presentation to the German delegates,
accompanied, perhaps, as q measure Of
convenience, by an official statement
Of the changes from the original. Then
with everybody informed the Senate
cannot feel sighted in not receiving
an official copy Of a document which
cannot possibly be officially submitted
to it until it has been signed at Yer
sailles.
