"EvERYWOMAN"
PRESENTED BY
ALL-SIAR CAST
One Of the Years Successes
When First Staged by
Henry W. Savage in
New York.

"Everywoman," Walter Brownies
modern morality play. which has
been made into a motion picture by
the Famous Players-Lasky corpora
ton, stands a. one OF the landmarks
in theatrical history. Not only did
the play mark the introduction of 4
new form into modern drama-it is
modelled on the morality play OF the
middle ages-but it opened the way
for a long line of dramatic specta-
eles, each presented with special
musical setting, which have Since
been found in each seasons list Of
entertainments. 1t was neither play
nor opera, but a blend of both, and
il continued to attract tremendous
audiences for several years after its
original production. =.
"Everywoman" was first produced
BY Henry w. Savage at the Herald
Square theater, New York, February
27, 1911. The fact that Walter,
Browne, the author, died two days
before, somewhat saddened the play
ers, but the first performance was
received with favor and the play was
at once established as one OF the
years successes. The elaborate
scenes, the special musical score by
George Whitfield Chadwick and the
splendid stage direction of George
Marion all came in for share OF
praise.
Real All-Star Cast.
The cast which originally present
ed the play was probably the near
est to an all-star cast that has ever
been assembled. Laura Nelson Hall
appeared as Everywoman and II.
Cooper Cliffe was the Nobody.
Sarah Coweli LeMoyne was Truth;
Frederick de Belleville, Wealth, and
John L. Shine played Stuff, Stella

tured players. appeared as Youth,

'EVERYWOMAN' IS
MODELLED AFTER
EARLIEST DRAMA
Tale of Adventure. Of Emo
tional Struggle and Of Love
Triumphant.

The screen production of Walter
Brownies successful play, Every
woman" marks the arrival in mo-
ton pictures of one of the earliest
forms of drama. Modelled after the
morality plays of the middle ages
it tells modern story with an ap-
peal which is universal and timely
in every age, the story of the pill
grimage of Everywoman in quest
of Love.
Drama, as we know it today,
is an outgrowth and development of
secular celebrations held in the
courtyards of churches and cathe-
drals on feast days. At first Incl
dents in Biblical history were pre-
sented i'll a manner to seize upon
popular attention. Later the stories
of miracles were acted in an attempt
to set forth a part of the teaching
necessary to mans salvation. To
complete this teaching, which was
almost entirely theological of the
ethical side Of religion dealing with
matters of conduct, and it was this
ethical teaching that the morality
plays endeavored to bring to mems
minds.
Conflict for Human Soul.
By means of such personifications
as "The World, "Flesh," /" Mankind"
Mercy" Justice" Death" and
THE Seven Deadly Sins" the NOR
ality plays represented, in a graphic
way which would appeal to the
people, the conflict between sin and
righteousness for the possession of
the human soul. The early morali-
ties were broad in theme but, little
by little. their character changed
and farcical matter introduced to
tighten the solemn tone. In these
later plays the character of Vice
played part. He was usually rep
resented as court fool whose func-
ton it was to worry and trick his
master, the Devil. Vice survived
in the fool IN Shakespeare plays,
though it is hard to recognize him
in the philosophical touchstone in
AS You Like IT,
Lesson Which Amuses.
In the motion picture Every
woman" Mr. Browne tells tale OF
adventure, Of emotional struggle and
of love triumphant. with all of the
entertaining qualities of an every
day romance or story of business
intrigue. yet through it all there runs
an allegory which carries a forceful
lesson while it amuses. His char
acters, called by such names as
Truth. Passion and Youth, are all
everyday types. Passion, for ex-
ample, is an actor; Bluff and Stuff
are theatrical managers; Puff is a
press agent; Wealth is dissipated
millionaire. and Truth is the kindly
mother of a young physician whom
Everywoman finally discovers is
Love. having first believed him to be
Sympathy, Compassion, Respect and
other attributes of Love. Vice, Mr..
Browne retains. not as the court
fool, but as the woman of the
streets. who eventually disappears
with the Devil.
The tremendous success of the
stage version of "Everywoman"
demonstrates the soundness of the
playwright's judgment in adapting
the age-old form of play to modern
uses. The simple sincerity of the

IDEAS in common in picture-making,
the most dominant being that OF

story stood out brilliantly from the
fascinating setting of music and
spectacle. In the motion picture
version the appeal of the universally
interesting theme, presented with
very care for spectacular effect, yet
with the cameras opportunity for
intimate detail, strikes home with
far greater force. From the make
shift pageant of the twelfth century
to the lavish screen production Of

moved in triumphant progress with
ever-increasing power for entertain
ment and instruction.

even greater lasishness has been dis
played in the sets than in putting on
the stage version. 1t is interesting
to note that Wilfred Buckland, now
art director for the Lasky studio,
was technical supervisor for the
original production as made by Col
onel Savage. His knowledge Of the
play has been of utmost value in
making the film version. Just as
the stage production of Every
woman" marked an epoch in the
atrical production so does the screen
version mark a high point in the
making Of motion pictures.

pressed the opinion that it would be

An interesting point not generally
known in Connection with Chile's pref

it carried this reservation: The gov

considering notifications or reserva-

nations signatory to the treaty of

it up to the present" The date thus
referred to was November 4, 1919.
This reservation would leave the OPP
p%ortunity open for Chile to adopt
reservations subsequently made by
the United States.

Chilean newspapers did not expect

Chile and Peru for possession of the
territory Of Tacna and africa would be
taken up by the League Of Nations
assembly at it's first meeting in Ge-

Bolivia and Peru had requested
the League Of Nations to revise their
treaties with Chile. Bolivia wanted
access to the sea and Peru wanted a
reconsideration Of the Tacna-Arica
agreement; but both these requests
were Withdrawn early in the session,
thus preventing the possibility that
the league might encroach upon the
Monroe Doctrine by considering those
American questions in the absence of
the United StatAs.)
