Lieut.. Bunerli Is
Shaw's Own Picture.
Says Donald Brian

The role Of Lieutenant 'Bumerli,
which Donald Brian assumes in "The
Chocolate Soldier" at tho Century
Theater, is one with which he has
long been familiar. Before Oscar Straus
composed "The Chocolate Soldier"
music and the libretto was written,
based on George Bernard Shaw's
"Arms and the Man." Richard Mans
field had played BumcrIi in his own
production of "Arms and the MAN.
At that tiuc Brian became deeply
interested in the character. So much
did it appeal to him that he read all
the works OF Shaw and even studied
the life Of the brilliant Irishmun. The
conclusion he formed then is the con-
clusion he still entertaina and which,
incidentally, entertains him, that
Bumerl, the "Chocolate Soldier" Is
really Shaw's own picture and estimate
of himself.
"Lieutenant Bumerli is brilliant,
eccentric, resourccful," said Mr.. Brian
in respite from rehearsal at the
Century, "and he has sense of
humor. 1t is a sense Of humor that
shoots in every direction smultane-
ously and that dominates the life of
the man himself. To be taken for
coward when he is not vastly amuses
Bumcrli, whereas the man of only
average mentality and indifferent hu-
NOR would hotly resent such an impu-
tation. That is peculiarly Shavian.

Just 40 with Bumerli-in that respect
he, too, is shavian.
at has been said that no man is ever
able to estimate himself ut his true
worth. That is probably partial truth.
Certainly, man who has great ere
atvo imagination can at least picture
.c,1a Of the aspects of his inner self.
He may be humble in his estimate OF
hlmself--but he at least knows what
manner Of man he Island what man.
ncr of man he is striving to be.
"And so with Shaw. imagine that
Shaw If asked to calculate himself in
the measures of posterity would prob
ably reply, AS light as feather and
as heavy az foam But Shaw has
probably told himself what manner Of
man he is. firmly believe that he has
told the world what he is in his char
acter OF Bumerli.
"The Mansfield characterization was
superb. Arnold DAILY, too, has played
the role most effectively.
"IIowever, when we como to the field
Of music, and particularly tho music of
Oscar Straus, we find a great aid to the
Interpretation of character. On the
purely dramatic stage, as opposed to
tho lyric stage, there is no perfectly
understandable way Of expressing the
more subtle emotions when a character
is alone OH tho stage. Yes, there is "a
way" and Mr.. Brian laughed. "There
is red light, green light or even n
purple one.
"But music interprets tho acting.
1t accompanies it. To the music lover
it conveys sense as lucid as the Eng

$50 with 'The Chocolate Soldier and
the Straus music. I would not wish to
call brilliant and irterpretative melody
Shavian. Yet the music of Bumerli
possesses not only the qualities of the
character of Bumerli but those Of the
Shaw personality. 1t is brilliant, even
witty. 1t is light and fanciful. Yet
it has, too, the very soul of music
which is melody; and I like to think
that, with all his keen satirical sense
which sometimes seems satire solelv
for the sake of satire-Shaw has the
big soul, the melody, Of one who loves

Settings Heighten
Tale of Contrast
In Fools Paradise

Cecil De Mile has used settings in
lis latest production, "Fool's Para
Disc" as iewelcr uses metals as a
frame for gcms--an old town back
ground serves as frame for hum
ole woman, and brilliant Ice palace
ballet and glorious Siamesc temple
are the settings for French dancer.
"A 'cantins,' set in the picturesque at
nosphere OF border town." aays De
Mile, serves to provide contrast for
ater scenes taken amidst tho Oriental
luxury Of Siam. We show two women,
Two Jewels; one in rough setting, the
other in some Of the most gorgeous
surroundings this world affords. The
idea is that the flaw in the jewel shows
up clearest in a wonderful setting aud
that S certain kind of man is easily
misled by the outward beauty of a
woman.
ain preparing the contrast which
makes the drama of this offering our
'cantina' plays very irportant part.
Hence we have made this scene as
realistic as possible to gain the atmos-
pheric effect"
The "cantina" is reproduction of a
famous gathering place in an oil center
on the Mexican border. which is used
as the locale of the opening scenes.
An oldtime bar, roulette table, faro
bank, dice tables and slot machines
are some of the principal properties.
Against this noisy, bustling back
ground De Mile has projected one of
mis- most elaborate interludes, a pam
tomime ballet laid in an ice palace,
rivalling the setting of the Cinderella
episode in forbidden Fruit"
Agsin the scene changes to Siam,
where the beautiful and shallow dancer
IS followed by the hero. There, for
the first time, he realizes that he has
been living in q fools paradise" Two
famous Siamese temples were repro
'uced for the Oriental scenes.
"As the two contrasting women I
chose Mildred Harris and Dorothy Dali
ton," Mr.. De Mile explained. "Miss
Harris is the exquisitely gowned but
vain and fckle dancer, while Miss Dali
ton, the diamond in the rough, has
real character beneath plain exterior.
