N OMEDY in its best and most
wholesome sense will be found
in Keep Her Smiling" the
new spoken play in which Mr.. and
Mrs. Sidney Drew are personally
appearing, and which Richard Wal
ton Tully will present at the Boyd
theater, three days beginning tomor-
row night, with matinee Wednes-
day
Keep Her Smiling" is in three
acts, with its scenes laid in New
York City and suburb near there.
Henry and Polly are, as usual,
devoted married couple. Henry. is
the meek. overworked and much
imposed upon employee of a New
York firm of contractors. Exag-
gerating his position and Income to
Polly she desires to live in a man
ner suitable to their supposed sta
ton in life, and Henry becomes
involved in impossible payments on
a suburban residence, piano-player
and other luxuries. The crisis comes
when Polly gives a terrifically ex~
pensive party to neighbor million
aires. One has only TO imagine
Henry's frantic endeavors to keep
her smiling" meeting his wife's
every extravagant request with the
adoring remark Polly darling,
when you look at me like that /
can do anything" to forsee the
hilarious complications OF a poorly
paid clerks salary falling to meet
the mode Of living of a millionaire.
However, Henry though harrassed
and desperate, bluffs it through,
and by blind luck wins ultimate sue
cess and relief During quickly
changing scenes of exhausting
laughter, Henry is fired from his
job, resigns his position, and is
begged to return at big salary, and
finally is made an important execu-
tive of a new consolidated corpora
ton, which his efforts had almost
wrecked in the forming, but which
he was thought to have consumated.
While the Drews have the lead
ing roles, there are over 20 other
important characters interpreted by
the original New York cast. Mr..
Tully has provided very elaborate
scenic production for the Drews'
new speaking vehicle.

TTT ITH peace will come an
wv other dance craze" proph-
" estes Lucille Cavanagh, the
dancer.
Il want that to go on record" in
sists the dainty danseuse. when
the boys come home they will have
been impoverished for amusement,
Quite naturally they will turn to
dancing as the most satisfying di-
version, and the girls, too, who have
ceased to dance since our boys went
away will respond as enthusiastical-
iy. Dancing is the most natural
thing in the world. It is the ex-
preston of youth. The spiritual
system Graves it and needs it as
much as the physical.
at look for an overwhelming re-
vival of the dance when peace days
come because our youth will be
hungry for it. Even now get
scores of letters from friends over
there who say in effect: oh. tor a
waltz or two-step.' And it will do
the country a great deal of good to
have a dance craze one more, for
dancing, to my mind. is the greatest
medium in the world for bringing
out the best side of ones nature.
If people danced more there would

Sidney Drew's Theatrical
career

played during the plays long run
in Chicago at Hooley's theater, and
in BILLY" When the all-star pro-
duction of "She Stops to Conquer"
was made Mr.. Drew played Tony
Lumpkin. Others in the cast were
Kyrle Bellew, Eleanor Robson,
Louis James, J. E. Dodson and Mrs.
Charles CalVery.
In 1898 Mr.. Drew took on tour a
company headed by his mother,
Mrs. John Drew. He played during
that tour Bob Acres in "The Ri
walls" Danton in THE Road to
Ruin" Mr.. Oakley in "The Jealous
Wife" and as Tony Lumpkin in
"She Stops to Conquer" 1t was
after this tour that Mr. Drew, with
his wife, went into what at that time
was known as variety" The step
caused a great sensation at the time
in the theatrical world, for Sidney
Drew was the first distinguished
actor to 60 into that work. He
was a great success and played a
series Of one-act pieces, the last of
which was "Billy's Tombstones,"
which was presented during a tour
of the world. This was the piece
which later became the comedy
Billy"
On their return Mr.. Drew went
into picture work and his first wife,
who was a daughter of Mckee Ran
kin, having died, he later married
the present Mrs. Drew. Richard
Walton Tully having John Hunter
Booths comedy, Keep Her Smil-
ing" ready for production, induced
the Drews to undertake the leading
roles, and it was brought to pro-
duction last spring. The piece
proved an immediate success and
went Immediately for a run in Bos-
ton. Last summer the Drews made
their appearance in New York and
then came direct from the Aston
theater to the Woods theater, Chi
cago.
