I LONG FOR APRU,s EY-Es

know not and care not, dear What faith may find or hope maI
 bring; I count my memories of the year Alone by what the birds may sing; Or what the rivers drift me down From Camelots that still survive Beyond the factories of the town indifferent to how men may thrive I know not what beyond lies only long for Aprirs eyes, For violets pied in gullies deep Where naiads upon the lilies sleep And none have care and none have
 woe And none are itching to reform The old worlds wrong or set things
 right But just to love and live the light I shall be happy for the day When men don't think they must em-
 ploy Their thought and time in setting
 straight The crooked things-but go with joy To take the sun and drink the dew And dream of April. and to love Clear skies. bright paths, and rivers
 through Soft meadows of the lark and dove.

Censor Still Cleaning
Up Shows
MANY MORE CHANGES ORDERED

The censors of The American Bur
lesque Circuit are still at work whip
ping the shows on their wheel into
shape. They seem to be making a
determined effort to place all com
panies in top notch shape. Last week
they ordered sweeping changes in
several shows. This week the blue
penciling continued, with the follow
ing results:
Round the Town. Owned by
Stouse and Franklyn Changes re-
quire two new principals in cast. Show
excellent otherwise.
Girls, Girls, Girls. Changes re-
quire all principals except prima don
ma and soubrette, to be changed at
once.
Cracker Jacks. Owned by Ed.
Rush.-Changes require two changes
IN principals, two new sets of scenery
and four new changes of wardrobe
Sport Girls. Owned by Sam
Howe. Changes require two prin-
cipals to be replaced, two new sets
of scenery ard several borders to be
replaced. Also two new sets of cost
umes to be provided.
The changes ordered last week have
been made and the censors subse.
quently have put their o. X. on the
shows. Among those ordered changed
were, 1.-The Tempters,' "Social Fol.
lies" and Jazz Babies.' Several
managers have asked the censors for
clemency, stating that they have en-
ployed goood many principals who
have never worked in burlesque be-
fore and say thes committee should
give them time to become broken in.
The following shows have been
passed as being first class: "Folles of
Pleasure" owned by RUDE Bernstein
Monte Carlo Girls owned by Tom
Sullivan; Beauty Review" owned by
Sam Levey; Hello Frenchy," owned
by Thomas Beatty; "Pat Whites Own

MERIT IN NEGRO PLAY

Abounds Keen Humor
with Excellent Voices.-BaItin,ore Euening Sun.

A troupe of Negro artists staging a
musical comedy and playing to their
own people is no novelty to the the
atrical world. But there is playing
this week at Albaugh's Theatre a mu-
steal comedy written, staged, pro-
duced and acted by colored actors and
actresses, who display unusual tai
ent.
The troupe, known as the Smarter
Set Company, is offering a two-act
musical comedy entitled "The Chill
dren of the Sum-" which is clever.
unusually well composed with bright
lines and which brings out much of
the rich humor, characteristics of the
Negro and at the same time has a
reflection of racial pride. And with
this unusual company, which seems
to be making struggle to lift the Ne
gro into place in the higher the.
atrical sun, is Salem Tut Whitney,
a formidable rival of Bert Williams,
who might well be pleasing an exclu-
sively white audience of Broadway
with a big variety hit. He has all
the assets and with it the intelligence

how simple the line. With J. Homer
Tut, also. clever actor of the
smarter type, he wrote the musical
comedy being presented and in it he
displayed bit of genius.
Appeal to Both Blacks and Whites
The Children of the Sun" is I'M
doubtedly intended to make both
whites and blacks laugh and think.
The producers might be accused of
putting out racial propaganda, for it
is based upon a book written by a
well-known Negro archaeologist, who

RUCKER AND WINIFRED AT THE
RIALTO

Rucker and Winifred are a scream
at the Rialto. The act is very original
and is a laugh getter and side split
ter.
Winifred has played the part of
the chinaman so long, that he, like
Louis Morrison, who played the part
of the Devil" in Faust so long, that
he thought at times, he was the old
fellow, that he thinks himself China
man at times.
Fuckers mouth is the largest thing
in vaudeville, except the bass fiddle.
The act, while containing no display
of rare ability or uniqueness, is well
worth seeing. The songs were old but
catchy 1t is regretted that our stars
on the big circuit do not vary their
acts just a trifie from season to
season. Probably it is hard to
get new hits, still the old China
man and Negro comedy could be
varied into new act that would add
to the popularity of the team. If our
artists are going to stay on the time
they must give US big stuff or else
they will remain as End raters in the
1.-TWO and three day houses"

Egyptian prince or an Abyssinian
king. 1t, nevertheless, would have a
tendency to boost racial pride among
the Negroes and allay any desire on
their part to change their color.
The first scene brings out planta-
ton songs along the banks of the old
Suanee river, with Dixie wit and
suggestions of the rich, old Virginia
background.
Songs Unusually Good
There are some unusually good
songs and the chorus girls and men
have well-trained voices. In fact,
Ed. Tolliver, Carrie King and Vir-
ginia Wheeler have cultivated voices
and sing without trace of the dialect.
'Travelin', We'se Travelin'," Dear
Old Dixie Home" Come and Dance
With Me-" and Something About
You Like" are all songs that have
a few borrowed strains in them and
are purely racial inspirations. The
dances were good.
A section of the house was given
over to white people and there were
several there.

LET'S GET A CoLORED MOVIE
HOUSE ON THE SOUTH SIDE

1t is both regrettable and deplor-
able that the Colored people in Chi
cago have not pooled their finance
and launched out in the movie house
business
We understand the film syhdicates
will not supply the race promoters
with first class films if they are in
competition with the Jewish movie
magnates. This evil can be met by
big business. A certain amount of
dollars will move the syndicate and if
the dollars wont work, we can refuse
our patronage and boycott the Jews.
We must make the South Side safe
for colored business democracy.
Ninety-nine per cent of the colored
people are movie fans. The kiddies
all go. We are planning to launch a
big movie house. We want co-opera-
ton from all.
We also realize that it is possible
to reap small fortune within the
race and create greater solidarity
in the business world, by getting our
people to patroinize our business. If
you want a colored movie house and
if you will promise to boost it and
will help US to build up race business,

The Birth of the Shimmy

Several tales have been cast afoat
as to the origin of the new cabaret
dance craze, the shimmy.
1t is claimed that the shimmy was
originated by colored actors and was
sequel to walking the Dog"
As matter of fact, the shimmy
was originated by mediocre white
actor who caught his idea from a dog
shaking himself after being thrown
in the water. Colored people have
perfected and popularized it, how
ever. Salome dances, or in fact, any
of the Eastern dances are somewhat
similar to the shimmy in spots. Suf-
fee it to say, the shimmy is no art
dance.
