HIS COOK KNEW HIM ON STAGE.
Grant Mitchell wonders Now il
He should Wear False Heard.

Grant Mitchell has employed the same
cook for many years. According to the
actor she Is the champion pastry cook
OF the world. 1t occurred to him that
she might enjoy seeing her employer in
The Champion" at the Longacre Thea
tre so he gave two tickets to her.
Although Mr.. Mitchell has more con-
fidehce in Nora's cakes than In her dra-
matte criticisms, nevertheless. he was
very anxious to get her opinion regard
ing his performance. The next morninr
he hoped that she might unsolicitct r.
press her views and he waited expect
antly az she lowered about with the
ccfree and rolls. But when he had fin-
ished his breakfast and she had said
nothing he asked her how she enjoyed
the play.
With knowing toss OF her head Nora
replied: You didn't deceive me, Mr.
Mitchell, ] knew you the minute you
came out on the stage"

marital butterfly delightfully."-. of &C urse
No other actor on the American stage
approa ches these elderly faneurs with
the same control of the necessary light
ness Of touch and the delicacy of execu-
ton that alone saves them from vul-
garity.
FIe does not succeed. however. in max
ing them amusing to an. Some soecta-
tors of boulevard farce. with its types
standardized as those OF the Italian
pantomime. are so strablsmic that they
are able to do everything but laugh
They can admire the dexterity with
which the Frenchman fits the parts OF
these pieces together. They are inter-
ested in observing the skilful approaches
to the climaxes and wonder at the GER
tainty with which they ere provided on
schedule. But they find it altogether
impossible to laugh at anything else
than the occasional cleverness of the
actors. The writer is unfortunately for
his pleasure at such performance OF this

Mr.. Ziegfeld Plans
His Next "FOlIieS"
Says Only Producers Who Give
to the Public the Best
Will Survive.

Florenz Ziegfeld. Jr., who arrived
home from Palm Beach last week. where
he spent the late winter with his wife
(Biilie Burke) and their daughter, Miss
Patricia. Immediately set about formu-
lating his plans for that theatrical in
stitution--the next "Ziegfeld Follies."
For eight months Mr.. Ziegfeld is at
his desk early and remains generally
until 8 at night, and for four months he
rests to keep himself At. The success
Of the Follies is proof Of the advantages
of his idea Of recreation.
1t is difficult" said Mr.. ziegfeld. TO
cut away from office ties. but the strain
OF producing a theatrical performance
like The Follies and Sally and the
Midnight and Nine O'Clock Frolics is
quite too much for one man, even II he
be OF iron
THE demands upon tlie theatrical pro-
ducer this season will be heavier than
ever before. The theatre Il returning to
normally just as are other lines Of en-
deavor. and only those who give the
public the best will survive.
"lt used to be that could produce
'Follies for about $3.50 and now the
expenditure is more than a quarter OF
million. The slightest weak spot, like
the spotted apple in the barrel. may
spoil the whole, and every detail musS
be carefully thought out and as CAREFUL
executed.
The success of last years 'Follies'
has been phenomenal Like my produc-
ton OF Sally at the New Amsterdam
IT has never played to a vacant seat.
Such costly productions, as matter or
fact, cannot play to vacant seats and
survive unless the producer is a
Croesus.
The Follies' is expected each year
not only in New York but in the prin-
cipal cities where 1t appears to be orig
inal absolutely in every particular. To
live up to that expectation is, i submit
no easy feat
There must be songs that are lasting
hits. beauties that have never graced
the stage before, scenic effects like no
other ever produced and lighting that
blends the whole"
Mr. ziegfeld, true to his custom. re-
fused TO say anything in advance about
the "Ziegfeld Follies." He has only
announced that Edward Royce, who df-
rected last years "Follies" and sally"
will direct this years "Follies." And
Joseph Urban. as permanent as the
Palisades in the Ziegfeld organization.
will devise the scenic effects.
Mr.. Ziegfeld witnessed upon his ar
rival In New York for the first time his
new edition OF the Midnight FroIic"
which has been meeting with such re-
markable success on the New Amster-
dam Roof. Later in the week ne went
TO Columbus. Ohio. to view the Fol
lies" on tour.
