BARE LEGS NOT NEW.
Done Long. AgO-But Not Publicly An
nounced, Declares Actress.

OF course, bare-legged chorus girls
are no longer a novelty on the Ameri-
can stage and there have been rumors
that the custom of going without
stockings has been adopted in a more
or less 'desultory fashion by ladies in
certain social circles off the stage, but
it has been left for Nancy Gibbs, a
Welsh actress now playing the part of
Lady Mary Carlisle in Monsieur
Beaucaire," to attempt to introduce
the fad among the leading women of
the profession.
Miss Gibbs told a Chicago reporter
the other day that one frightfully hot
night in the Windy City she took off
her stockings and powdered her legs
and played Lady Mary that way.
And" she added calmly. al daresay
should have been playing her that
way yet if a, prudish old lady in the
audience hadn't found me out and
gone protesting to the manager Then.
of course, the manager put back my
stockings-at least he asked me to-

Along the Rialto
What Is Happening in the Legiti-
mate Stage World just Now.

Helen Hayes, the delightful young
actress who is now appearing in the
title role of "Bab" at the Park theater,
New York, made her professional stage
debut at the age of six, tho she had
frequently appeared in amateur per-
formances before that time. She had
the role of Prince Charles, the tiny
heir to the throne in 1.-THE Royal Fam
ily." in a production of that comedy
made in her home city of Washington.
Monsieur Beaucaire," the Mes
sager-Tarkington romantic opera, has
begun an engagement at the Illinois
theater, Chicago, and the music lovers
of that~city are just as much pleased.
with it as were those in New York
and other cities. At any rate, they
are packing the theater. OF course,
Marion Green, who plays the title role,
came in for a lot of extra applause
on the opening night, because he is a
Chicago boy. But there was at least
one man present who thought the
chorus people deserved some recogni-
ton for the excellent work they did.
That was Charles Previn. the director
of the orchestra. He was so pleased
with the chorus that he went out after
the performance and bought each
chorus girl box of candy and each
chorus man a box of cigarets.
Alfred Lunt, who is now playing his
original role in Booth Tarkington's
Clarence" is to be presented next
season by George C. Tyler in a new
comedy in which he will have another
whimsical role. Mr.. Harrington wrote
Clarence around Mr.. Lunt's quaint
and unusual personality after seeing
him in the leading role in THE Coun-
try Cousin"
The most spectacular '-hit" of the
New York dramatic season is 1.-The
Bat" the Mary Roberts Rinehart-
Avery Hopwood mystery play as pro-
duced by Wagenhals and Kemper at
the Morosco theater. The theater has
been sold out at every performance
since THE Bat" opened there last
August.
Spanish Love-" the Wagenhals &
Kemper production of the Avery Hop
wood Mary Roberts Rinehart romance
of old Spain at Maxine Elliott's
theater, has definitely established it.
self as one of the real theatrical novel
ties of the current New York season
| Splendidly acted. beautifully staged

American Public, Like Ancient
Kings, Needs Testers.
Slashed Wages and Jobs Not
Allowed to Interfere.
ALL ARE DOING BIG BUSINESS
Chicago Crowds Movie Places
and Legit Theaters.
Drop in Ticket Prices Expected
To Be Very Slow.

Chicago, Dec. 1s.-In AMBIENT days
every king with weighty problems on
his mind had his jester to crack jokes
and play funny antics to prevent him
from worrying.
Today, the people rule and their
Jester. the real and reel stage, lifts
worry over unemployment and re-
duced wages from their minds.
With industries in all parts of the
country slashing wages and letting out
thousands of workers. the theatrical
and motion picture business is at the
height of its prosperity without any
sign of let up, according to leading
movie and theater owners here.
Theaters Arc Crowded.
Every theater in Chicago is enjoying
full houses, according to Harry j.
Powers. veteran theatrical owner.
Powers owns a controlling interest and
manages five of Chicago's leading
theaters.
I'VE never had a greater volume Of
bushes said Powers. "Our houses
play to capacity every night and we
are generally sold out the day before.
Powers said business depression has
not shown any effect on the theater-
going public.
1T would be a tragedy if the people
didn't have the theaters to help them
forget their troubles" he said, land
perhaps that's the reason why we
haven't been hit as hard as other in
dustries" Powers predicted reduc-
ton in theater prices.
but il would be gradual and may
be years before it reaches the pre-war
price" he said.
Pay High for Tickets
Top prices for theater seats are 50.
Before the war they were $3.50. Pow
.ers declared theatrical prosperity IS
general An instance he cited was the
receipts of the Follies in Detroit last
week. which. he said, totaled $4,000.
- Movies are doing a tremendous bust
ness at all places. according to motion
picture men. Lou Houseman, who is
aiding David Griffith in staging a
spectacular production here at So per
seat. said the house is being filled at
every performance.
The people were educated during
the war to like amusement and now
know what a relief it means to be en-
tertained in time of trouble" said
Houseman. Il look for continued pros
perity in the movie game
- Lesser priced movie owners also said
they are enjoying a successful season
Long queues of regular patrons can
be found every night at almost any
movie.

Movie Men Get Real Thrill.

Metro furnished Mayflower quite a
thrill this week by staging a spectacu-
lar fire in the home office at Forty
second and Broadway, diagonally
across from the Mayflower offices.
Practically all of New York's down
town fire apparatus responded to the
alarm and traffic was impeded for a
time while the smoke~eaters put out
.the blaze. 1t was announced the dam
age was $4,000. Dial Clawson. R. A.
Walsh's cameraman. took movies out
of Mayflower's baywindow, the idea
being to use a 'shot" in the next
Walsh picture. 1t is hoped Metro will
not send Mayflower a bill for the ''lo-
cation"

TEN PRISONERS
ESCAPE FROM JAIL
THREE RETAKEN

Quincy, Aug. Ten colored
prisoners have escaped from tn
county Jail here, after knocking down
Deputy Sheriff Stow and taking the
Keys away from him. Three of the
men have been recaptured, and
bloodhounds, brought here from Ca
milla, Ga, are on the trail of the
others.
The prisoners were all in one cell.
When the taller opened the doors for
Julian Coachman. a trusty who Is al
lowed the freedom Of the Jail, a pris.
oner. named Ed Thomas, made rush
for Stow, striking him on the knees
and over-balancing him. Other ne
groes came to his assistance, and this
deputy was soon completely over
powered. It was evidently the re-
suit of well laid plot. The trusty,
Julian Coachman. could easily have
with the rest, but he did not
do so.
