lie also reiterated his opinion that
ii would be good thing to see what
could be done to increase the size
of the gas mains on the side streets.
Unless that is done we shall have
to tear up the streets again inside of

don't know what the reason is !hat
some of our men don't do something
when We have such fine opportuni-

IN the first place we haven't got

ard the gas company cannot supply
the gas, with the present condition
of the pipes the mains cannot give

is very evident that we will have to

blood He took his savings and the
next train to New York.
While looking for some one who
would make an actor of him MacLarne
met Leander Richardson, who advised
him to "give up the stage, go home and
be honest" MacLarnie took the next
train back to North Adams. But it
wasn't simple to get the virus out of
his system by a mere train ride, and
the fever soon ragged again. A friend
who knew James O'Neill wrote to him
Of MacLarnie, and to the youths
amazement and binding joy he re-
ceived a telegram to join the stars

Auburn, N. Y.
Nothing so green as I had ever hap
pened in that company" laughs the
actor. 81 didn't know one beginning of
a rudiment. My first performance was
in Monte Cristo.' Another super and
l had to fling the body of the Count,
tied in sack, into the sea. When the
time came my foot slipped and I fell
with the body and lay on the green
cloth so it could not be undulated to

ocean, and / ruined the climax of the

l didn't come on with the supers.
Come on, fellersl' said. And we all
ran on the stage before virginius had
stabbed his daughter. So ruined that
play, too.

corner and called myself every name !

going on the stage. Now, there's moth
ing so terrible in all the world as a
bum actor. So I'm going to give you
the part of Morel to understudy."
After four years with James O'Neill,
MacLarnie left him, and since then has
passed nine years in various stock COM
panies all over this country and in Aus
traiia. After having played 900 parts,
he arrived on Broadway at last with
the Winchell Smith and John l.. Golden
production Of "Lightnin'."

Before he became known on Broad
way Edwin Nicandcr, now in "Keep It
to YOURSELF" was a transforming actor
who had the unusual experience of
being stranded with five different the
atrica troupes in five different tank
towns.
Nicander was man of many parts,
and his principal work in these barn
storming troupes, which comprised two
one-act plays divided with what is at
present known as an olio, was to play
the heavy role, wearing the usual
Simon Legree mustache in the first
act and going on in the olio in spangles
and tights for wire walking stunt,
minus the hirsute adornment.
One night Nicander failed to remove
the mustache, and rather than cause
the $500 worth of audience to wait
until he had removed all vestige of the
villain he started across the wire.
"Bet two bits he falls he heard
soto voce from man.
"Take you," replied another.
"Four bits he breaks his neck" came
another voice.
"Make it eight bits and III take
you," said the first voice.
Nicander became so interested in
the betting that he fell. The mus
tachc was torn from his lip, but out
side of few abrasions he was unhurt.
ANTE, colonel" said a familiar
voice. ale didn't break his neck"
"Well, suh," replied the one ad-
dressed as colonel, che had mighty
close shave"
Mr.. John Sheehy, one of the best
known and most popular of travelling

will have to forego the pleasure OF
the long hauls and wet lots. He frankly
admits that if red wagon on green

be strongly tempted to follow it.

By Haywood Broun

Although "Hobohemia" illustrates
the difficulties of making Greenwich
Village satire amusing, the trick can
be turned. 1t was done by Wilbur
Daniel Steele in "Not Smart" in the
last bill of the Provincetown Players.
Sinclair Lewis made the mistake of
not conceding the objects of his satire
any sense at all. To do this is to
make the butt Of satire much too vul-
nerable. After all, the satirist is a
raplersnan, and if there exists no
guard through which he must slip the
work is plain murder. 1t becomes too
brutal to be pretty and too easy to be
amusing.
The satirist is not fool killer. He
must take somebody his size or there
abouts. Although it is essential that
his opponent shall be inferior, a little
clash of steel is needful. And when
the final thrust comes, it should be
modified by little tolerance. A sub
stantial flesh wound is ample Man
kills the thing he loves, but he merely
SdUlElZPS,
In "Not Smart" Steele has wisely
made his opponent at least plausible
adversary. His workmanship is
brilliant if not sound, and when he is
laid low there is the feeling that the
audience has had a run for its money
James X. Light, who plays Milo Tate
the exponent of the Greenwich Village
point of view, gives an exceedingly
amusing and sympathetic interpreta-
ton of cleverly devised role
Blanche Hays and Christine Ell are
also effective.
Ida Rauh, one of the best players O.
the Provincetown group, is less eff
fective in farce than in more substan
tlal drama. She gives sincere, strons
and shrewdly modulated performanc,
in 1.-THE SQuealer," by Mary H. Barber
Here we have an interesting but en-
tlrely conventional play about a worker
who goes back on his pals. The only
novel turn contributed by the drama
tist is in the ending, and this is hardly
an improvement, since the author al
lows her little play to 60 into q stale
mate. Affairs in life do get into JUS
such snarls sometimes, but it is per.
haps a justifiable convention of tn,
drama that play must go on to {
finish.
Although We are generally sympa
thetc to those dramatists who seek te
slice life and show it without trim
mings, we do feel that they must a
least use discretion where they cut. 4
play is not justified by the fact o.
being true if it is not dramatic. j
should tell a story and, in broao
sense, point a moral. 1t should dea
with the currents of life rather thar
the eddes. Holding this belief we die
not find Bosworth Crocker's play, "Tht
Baby Carriage" entirely satisfactory
in spite of what seemed to us excellent
observation. Nature is a good but no
an infallible dramatist. 1t is up to the
rcalist to catch her in one Of her the
atrical moods.

Sntirist Should Select
Rapier as Weapon

Failing out of fourteenth story
window or being cross-examined in
court is quite similar in its effect
OF causing ones whole life to pass
before his eyes in review. Of course,
it passes more quickly in a fall than
IN cross-examination. Still, after
having had two days in court in testj-
flying in libel suit which an actor
brought against The Tribune on the
basis of one of our dramatic reviews.
VIC know much more about cur past life
than ever before. The counsel for the
plaintiff brought out without difficulty
past in which baseball games were
reviewed and przefights criticised, but
it was not until later in the Afternoon
that he made us vince. That effect
came when he thrust out an accusing
forefinger and said bitterly: "You al
ways write in a humorous vein, don't
you?"
Being under oath, there was nothing
for us to do but deny it.
less dramatic than those on the stage.
Any playwright can acquit a man for
murder in one big scene, but it took
The Tribune almost two days to win
the libel suit. There was never a mo-
ment when we were not reminded of the
third act of Common Clay" Not a
soul broke down. We kept thinking
that 1T would grow more dramatic with
the summing up and the charge, and
the jury silently filing out, and we
wanted to do our part. We thought it
made a difference, for instance, where
the accused man sat, but our lawyer
said "No." Just the same we moved
our chair up and faced the twelve
lawyer and then the other discussed
the case. The difference in their point
of view seemed strongly marked. 1t
was while the counsel for our side was
talking that something happened which
promised drama, but it proved a dis
appointment. We were gazing intently
at the jury, and suddenly one of the
talesmen winked at US. We met his
eye again and once more he winked.
1t seemed most propitious sign until
we watched the juror obliquely and
found that he had nervous trouble
with that particular eye and winked
at everybody without discrimination.
After all, it wasn't the cross-exam-
inat;on which bothered us so much as
the court attendant, who kept pokin.

HARbOR UN|1ES TO
BOOST BIG CANAL
ABERDEEN AND HOQCIAM JOIN
HANDS IN DEVELOPING
PROJECTS.

The cities of Aberdeen and Ho-
GUAM have dropped their old rivalry
and gotten together for the develop
ment of Grays Harbor as a great
shipping center, and in doing this
have taken one of the greatest steps
forward in the history of Southwest
ern Washington, according to H. NJ.
Delanty, manager of the Grays Har-
Dor Stevedoring company and chair
man of the new joint harbor commit
tee of the two cities.
Dredging of the Gray's Harbor bar
to a depth sufficient for vessels of
10000 lightweight tons and construc-
ton of a canal from the harbor up
the Chehalis river and thence to
Olympia, are the chief projects for
which the committee will work.
1.-THE dredging of the Grays Har-
Dor bar to a depth sufficient for the
passage of vessels of 10000 tons
lightweight is one of the most i'm
portant projects ever planned in the
Northwest. In connection with this is
the project for dredging a canal from
the harbor up the Chehalis river and
thence to Olympia.
1T Is now possible to travel by
canoe from the harbor to the Sound,
with only a short portage. 1t is a
natural canal route and the canal,
