GAYETY COMEDIAN
TELLSOF TRANSITION
FROM AISLE TO STAGE

Ray Read. the Irish comedian at
the Gayety Theater this week, was
relating to the writer yesterday in
his dressing room how a queer twist
of fate brought him back under the
management of I. NJ. weingarden.
Seventeen years ago he was an
usher in the Trocadero Theater in
Chicago, at the same time Mr.. Vein
garden, present producer of the
great Star and Garter" show, was
stage manager. Who would have
ever supposed that the youthful
usher would in later years become
EN- important member of the then
stage managers future burlesQue
company?
But that's Just how It worked out
The very writer who will take
weeks on a short story and study
will write a photopfay in a few
hours and send II to a picture cor, .
Germ without even trying to ascer-
tain whether 1t will fit their needs
or not!
Just as long as this state OF
things exists, just so long will the
manufacturers OF motion pictures
turn to the printed. adaptable story.
and just so long win writers wall
that their wares are returned to
them marked unavailable"

Sothern Evolves
New Stage Craft
In Current Pieces

When Z. H. Sothern and Julia
Marlowe left the stage a few years
back their entire productions, see
merry, costumes and properties were
all sold at auction. This means that
the plays to be presented this year
have been newly and freshly staged
and costumed. 1t will be recalled
that their former productions were
of the realistic school. which re-
quired carloads of scenery for each
play and caused critics often to
gnssh their teeth at the infinite de-
tail of the overladen stage.
Mr.. Sothern and Miss Marlowe
proposed to do something in the
new manner of stage setting. A
great deal Of time, study and ex-
perimenting has devolved itself into
the scheme these stars have con-
ceived for their use this season.
New York had already seen Gran
VILE Barker's idea OF new effects in
"a Midsummer Nights Dream"
The .Sothern and Marlowe produc-
tions, in which they were aided by
UNFIT and wickes, are not on the
same lines as the Barker effort, but
reflect a new craft of the stage, of
which much has been heard in this
country. btu practically nothing
seen in classic drama.
Miss Catherine Carroll, who plays
the ingenue in the new farce COM
edy. "Oh. Henry, which will be
seen at the Shubert-Garrick next
week, won the beauty prize in
contest given by one of the most
fashionable clubs of old New Or
leans. Miss Carroll has just re-
turned from London where she sue
cessfully appeared under Gilbert
Miller's management. who is spon-
sor for Monsieur Beaucaire, now
running at the New Amsterdam
Theater, New York.

It's Not a Fish Story.

1t really don't pay to laugh at
your own jokes. Owen Moore was
careering about the Selznick studies
the other day with a bowl of gold
fish in his arms, while a scene of
His Word of Honor" was in the
making. The director and his help
ers were laughing and a spotlight
conductor" became so hilarious
that he bumped light and knocked
heavy lens off. The lens narrowly
missed Moore's head and smashed
the bowl into smithereens. The
actor was somewhat startled. but
dropped his part long enough to
pick UP the fish and throw them
into a pail of water.

to know 1t Is Miss Hampton, who
returned recently on the Imperator

1t Was Shakespeare
Or No Stage Career
For Julia Marlowe

Something over a score of years
ago there might have been seen
climbing the stairs to the various
New York managers Offices, a slen-
der young girl with a serious face
and a modest demeanor. carrying a
bundle of Shakespeare's plays. She
was very beautiful and her win
some manner caused many passer-
by to turn round and look at her
again. Patiently she besieged the
managers and patiently she bade
her time. She wanted to play
Shakespeare and turned a deaf ear
to the many offers of other roles.
She was Julia Marlowe.
She had hitched her wagon to the
sun itself, and not a single twink
ling, coquettish star could distract
her gaze from the dazzling majesty
of the sun. 1t was Shakespeare or
nothing.
Finding the managers would not
give her the opportunity she craved.
she made 1t for herself. A special
matinee performance of "Ingomar,"
followed by one of Romeo and Ju-
liet" brought the critics and the
public to her feet. And then her
hearts desire came nearer. She
made a tour and from that time to
the present day she has never
swerved in her allegiance to
Shakespeare.
What is the reason why so very
few original photoplays are accept
ed by the picture makers?
The answer is want of intelligent
thought, proper and necessary study
of the needs OF motion pictures,
and rank stupidity and careless
ness; nay, absolute ignorance, says
Frank Woods, of the Famous Play
ers-Lasky Company.
The manufacturers welcome any
good story; that is. IL 1t really meets
their immediate needs and is suited
to the stars or featured players
they are employing.
Why is it that the manufacturers
have turned to the printed story?
One reason, 1T is true, is that the
name of a well-known author is of
value for advertising and publicity
purposes, but there Is another all
important reason.
or story, he gives his work a
world OF thought. and knows that
unless his work is good, his plot.
dialogue and action are thoroughly
interesting, he has little chance of
getting an editor to accept II. He
will take a long time writing It,
and will add and alter his manu-
scripe until he feels IL is almost
fiawlesS and will then send 1t to
a publisher or syndicate.
He does not insult his own intcll;-
gence by submitting story which
has been caTelessly developed or
put together, because he knows Il
only means loss Of time or prestige.
He openly recognizes the intelli-
gence of the editors Of the maga-
zines and Journals, and respects
them. He studies each magazines
requirements, and does not send ma
terial which he knows Is unsuitaSle
The makers of motion pictures are
not treated in the same way. It Is
no use mincing matters; IL is a
proven fact that the same care,
study and respect is not shown to
them, and the result is that authors
and writers complain that the pic
ture people do not went their ma
terial and treat 1t with scant con-
sideration.

SHCW LOVE FOR CHILDREN
Fondness of American Soldier for the
Little Ones Is One of His
Characteristics.

There are no rules against soldiers
fraternizing with children, and if
there were it is a question how many
more generals we would have to have
to enforce it.
This fondness of the American sol
der for children impresses itself
upon all who see him. The French re-
mark upon 1t here along the Rhine
and sometimes frown. That is because
they do not understand the dough-
boy.
The Poilu, when he sees a German,
man, woman or child, thinks Of raw
aged France and four years of suffer-
ing. The doughboy, when he sees a
German child, thinks of little broth.
er or sister or son or daughter back
home. He has already forgotten the
suffering of the battlefield.
The other day l was coming down
the Rheinstrasse when 1 saw a
doughbOy and a German lad of seven
or eight years standing in front Of
one of the many toy stores in the
city. They entered the store. 1 wait
ed until they came out, and the boy
walked away with bundle under his

Thoughts Of Today
Mrs. MaIaprop FIourishes.

The amount Of popular miscOncep-
ton as to the nature and the aim of
the single tax doctrine is amazing.
Ask at random among your neighbors,
"What is the single taxi" and you will
be surprised at the lack of knowledge
on that subject. One of the most
amusing and popular characters of fic-
ton is Mrs Malaprop. On the single
tax subject America contains millions
of Mrs. Malaprops. Yet it's idea is so
simple that even a kindergarten child
of six can understand it. Let us see.
Gall the land in America belongs to
all the citizens, and the annual value
of the land should be taken for the
benefit of all the citizens" That is
the whole of the single tax doctrine in
two sentences. You can more readily
grasp the idea if you imagine yourself
suddenly informed that you are the
rightful heir to large landed English
estate You would expect all the an
nual rent to be paid to you for you to
spend, would you not? Now substitute
all American citizens for yourself and
all America for the English estate and
you have the idea.

ONLY a Good Story.

When we read the story of the good
Samaritan we all become good Samar-
itans." How our hearts glow within
us with sympathy And we rush out
and drop nickel in the beggar's hat
out of sheer desire to show that we, at
least, are not priests or Levites.
But when it comes to straight bust
ness or politics that's different.
Europe is starving. The German
thieves fell on the travellers and de-
parted leaving Belgium, France, Serbia
and Armenia wounded and dying.
Now, shall We come to their help?
Shall we join in the work of building
up those nations and making it impos-
sible for the thieves to repeat the
trick? What do we do? We send this
glad Christmas greeting across the wa
ter, america first! %

NOTHING Doinu.

SO when we bring up the question of
the Single Tax people say, "Oh, bother
the poor! Let them go to work If
anybody wants land let them buy it.
1t is for sale, and l know of lots that
will be given away to anyone that
wants to build on them. Let every
man go to work and support his fami-
ly. By thrift they can save up enough
to buy a lot and build home on it
for themselves. This is an easy way
of dismissing the wounded traveller,
Just as the priest and the Levite ignOr-
ed him: ."Let that fellow pull himself
together and go on to the nearest inn.
THEY'LL take care of him, and if he's
too lazy to exert himself that lets us
out"
