SHUBERT-Vaudeville Premiere.

The Shubert-Belesco turned new
leaf in it's history yesterday after
noon Straight drama made its exit
and the theater became ''the home of
vaudeville" A band played outside,
before the performance. but there was
no official launching of the new en-
terprise, and no observable changes
other than the replacing of the cur
tain by a drapery of crimson plush
and corps of alertly-demure girl
ushers in puritan gray with white
collars and aprons.
The pre-War price of tickets prom
ises to make the box Office an inn
portant factor in the career of Shu-
bert vaudeville. an dthe announce
ment that the very best talent will
be engaged" is not only assuring
from an artistic viewpoint, but Is also
a wise precaution on the part OF the
management, as Washington has en-
joyed the advantage of superior
vaudeville for many years.

gram in merry fashion with unique
bundle of tricks. Then came Rosalie

Farrell sang songs, with personal

of changing from one artisticaIly ele-

Charles Richman and company, in a
George AIDE sketch, were SO realisti-
cally good as to revive memories of
the Beiasco at it's dramatic best. In
addition to Mr.. Richman the cast
comprised 7. Gordon Blythe and Rob-
ert vivian as triple admirers of
"Nettie.' the invisible heroine. with
Harold Grau as a messenger and
John N. Wheeler, waiter on the
side. Frank Orth and Nine. Anna

GAYETY-"Follies of the Day"

The theater-going public has been
led to believe that anything in the

Paree must necessarily be a little
naughty. and they are just as far
from the facts when they think that
all shows at a burlesque house. are
merely a combination of tights, slap
bang comedy and jazz. The show

Gerard's "Follies of the Day." if
transplanted on the stage of one Of

MORE TRUTH
THAN POETRY
BY JAMES j. MONTAGUE

A CASE FOR THE CONFERENCE
Dear MIR. Harding-though I'm not
At present much alarmed
l fear the future-for I've got
power to be disarmed.
power determined to possess
BY either force or stealth,
Unmindful of my keen distress,
My store of worldly wealth.
A nickel here a nickel there
Is not so much, l know.
1t need not drive one to despair
Yet thus do powers grow.
And when more practiced are its wiles,
When, though l sternly frown,
1t answers with enchanting smiles
My barriers will break down.
I hold mandate for 1t now
BY right of law, but still,
or late l find / know not how
To make it do my will.
And If it presently grows bold
And threatens to rebel.
How l its destinies can mould
l really cannot tell.
Perhaps limit set on tears,
Perhaps, If you depressed
Those elfish smiles a few brief years,
You'd put my fears at rest.
But no! the conference mayhap
Might go bit too far;
The powers sitting on my lap
Let's leave things as they are!
