It can be said that these interests
have been forced to defend them
selves in this style. and there Is q
measure of truth in the assertion
because the license system inevita-
bly, drives the liquor trade into poll
tics. But 1t Is also clear that the
only way to free the nation from
such an incubus is to extermihate It.
The first step to that end is to out
law the entire trade, and that step
has been taken. 1t will never be re-
traced.

SPOONER SISTERS
STARS AT WALNUT
The Brat Delights Admirers Of
Cecil and Edna May Of
Theatrical Family

The Brat" Maude Fulton's comedy
urafna' In which the author starred here
iast season, had an admirable popuar-prics
presentation last evening at the Walnut
with Miss Cecil Spooner in the stellar and
tltular role and her sister Miss Edna Nav
Spooner, in the somewhat emotional role
OF Jane Depew an artist. Both the Misses
spooner have a large clientele. which fol-
lows their theatrical ventures and adven-
lures with interest and a large represeutar
tion participated In The weIcom,. given 10
tne iaNorltes at the historic old playhouse.
Inc play itself is a blending of Comedy
farce and melodrama, and despite-possibiy
W uE reason ot-the utilization of familiar
tneatrlcal eNpedients won the interest and
applause OF the audience Although the
charge or 'machine-made" might perhaps
ne justly made in connection with IL A.
work or art II 1t were judged by the
canons OF dramaturgy, il makes clans

10 the satisfaction of its auditors The plot
was happest in its moments of funmalinx
py the Brat girl of the streets brought
INTO his mothers home by a novelist TO
serve as model for the character in a
romance he had under way. The incongrut
ues OF her actions and speeches against the
environment which she temporarily graces
provided many mrthful passages and the
audience was highly pleased when the
happy ending brought the curtain down on
her prospective marriage with the novel;
lists younger brother, whom her influence
had turned from the paths of dissipation
to n better life. r.
Miss Spooner's happy.go.lucky methods
and her sprightly dancing diverted her adj
mirers immensely. while her sisters acting
of more serious school also proved ap-
pealing. Their support was capable. and
not the least attractive feature of the pro-
duction was the plenitude of modsh gowns
worn by the several actresses of the cast.

Bored by Our National Anthem

To The Editor Of the EUening Public Ledger:
Sir-I would like to put a question TO our
concert going public of Philadelphia also
10 submit the question TO the women's COM
mittee OF our Philadelphia Orchestra: How
long are we to have star Spangled Ban
ner" dinned into our ears before every SYM
phony concert? National hymns have long
been eliminated from symphony programs in
nearly all other cities, including those of
Europe. Why must we Philadelphians always
be the last to follow?
When one notices the expression OF bore
dom on the majority OF faces every Friday
afternoon, 1t Is really not very fatter.ng
tribute TO our national hymn to be compelled
TO rise during the time it is played, and the
applause it calls forth is so stlted and forced
1t would really be better II there were not u
hand raised and the orchestra would go right
into the program. | do not know II any
ones attention has been called to the fact I
all or il II only seems to me that more people
come in late; even waiting outside until the
regular program begins. You know II we
had to listen TO Tschaikoswky Beethoven
or Mozart every week. no matter how Won
derful the composition. the effect would soon
wear off and the music fall on non-receptive
ears, and SO it is with everything. Repetition
soon takes away the desired effect.
After all, what are we trying TO accom-
plIsh We have beaten the Huns, we have
instilled such hatred of them even in the
minds of our little children that II will take
generations to wipe it out Now. for good
ness sake let us try 10 get away from war
and the memory OF it, II the time comes that
our patriotism need be stirred up again, our
Star Spangled Banner Will sound much bet
ter for having been given much-needed rest
a while and we will all be ready TO shout 1t It
tho tons of our voices. even as now demanded
