BELASCO.
Vaudeville.

The RIgoletto Brothers, with the
Swanson Sisters and the Whipple
and Huston Revue, run q close race
for headline honorsyon one Of the
best balanced bills presented at the
Belasco Theater since Shuoert
vaudeville became a reality. the
bill presented this week can be
called AN all-comedy" one, for
every act on the bill has vein OF
fun woven into 1t.
Although the Rigoletto Brothers
presentation is called Around the
World" they could just as easily
bill il as "A Little Bit Of Every
thing Done Well" Their act con
prises feats of 60 magic, juggling,
dancing and hand to-hand balanc-
ing. and their closing number is a
portrayal of Italian musicians. The
Swanson Sisters are a decided asset
to the offering, as they sing as well
as they dance. and they are good t.
look upon.
Vaudeville welcomed the return
of Whlpple and Huston to WASH
ington in their new Offering, called
Time" These two clever vauds-
Williams attempt to ascertain what
the public wants from Father
Time" and on his advice present an
act OF the highest caliber.
In their Offering they have gath
cred a good jazz band and a fne
quartet and present a timely revu.
in four scenes. While the featured
members Of the act stand foremost
with their comedy lines and songs
II might be well for them to allow
the quartet a little more time, for
good quartets in vaudeville these
days are few and far between.
Dolly Connolly sings several
numbers composed by Percy Wen
rich, who assists her at the piano
and comes In for a goodly share Of
applause. Wenrich Is remembered
as the composer OF several popular
song numbers, which hD renders In
his own inimitable style.

In the words Of the press agent
Tickle Me- is one Of the best musi-
cal comedies that has played here
for a month Of Sundays and while
we don't always like to agree with
the press agent we must admit that
Tickle Me" as presented at Poifs
Thoater last night lives strictly up
to its billing. ..
Frank Tinney, late Of Camp Meigs,
ID. c.. is funnier than at any time
during his career, in fact he was so
funny that at times he did not even
have to deliver his lines, simply
keeping his mouth shut and saying
nothing for he had his audience TO
such a point that they simply
laughed.
To go deeply into Tickle Ne"
would take up too much space, but
1t can be said that Tinney has sur
rounded himself with a sterling cast
OF singers and dancers. In fact the
dancing of Frances Grant and Ten
Wing, Mary Haun and Galdin G..
Sedano was one OF the many features
Of the production.
The book Of the production is by
Otto Harbach, Oscar Hammerstein
and Frank Mandel, while the music
Is by Herbert Stothart. Many Of
the musical numbers have preceded
the production by months, but one
must hear them sun in Tickle Ne"
to fully appreciate them.
Tickle Me" is about India; about
the Dardenella. who is supposed to
rule in that country, and about
shooting" a movie in the sacred
bath, all OF which, carefully woven
together. and with the aid of the
humorous Tinney, goes to make q
pleasant evenings entertainment.
The scenery of the production Is
noteworthy. especially the soap
bubble spectacle at the end Of the
first act. The chorus shows quite
little talent, particularly in their
speciality. While speaking Of the
chorus, we might add a vote Of
thanks to the young lady of the
ensemble for a package OF cigar
cites in the We've Got Something
| number.
AS to the song hits. IT q Wish
Could Make 1t So" and Until You
Say Goodbye" they will be whis-
tied and hummed here for some
moons to come. In a word. Tickle
Me" Is a pleasing show. and will
tickle the most jaded theatsrgoer
who is lucky enough 70 get to Polls
this week.

IN YOUTHS GAY SPRINGTIME
Incident Of Innocent Pleasure That
Excited the Admiration Of
Gap johnson.

ut shore does a Teller good to see
the innocent pleasure children get out
of the coming of spring" said Gap
Johnson Of Rumpus Ridge. 1.-THE first
right warm day most Of my young 'uns
swarmed, as you might say. Wife took
and ripped 'em out OF their under
clothes that she'd sewed 'em up in last
fall, and they hit the path for the
creek, scratching and cussing mer-
rily.
They found there seven or eight of
Gabe Giggery's kids, three or four Of
Jim-Tom Tullery's, a bunch of Zeke
Yawkey's and several more that no
body could tell whose they were till
they got their faces washed. Well,
then there was a grand hooraw as
they all shucked themselves and
whirled in TO tying each others
clothes up in hard knots, and fighting
about ii, and such as that. Round
and round and over and under they
went, till they all fell into the drink
and kept right on lamming each other
till they Knocked all the water out Of
the creek ."-Kansas City Star.

for I'm now in my siXty-eighth year.
Il remember when / was a child /
was kept on a strict diet Of lime
water and milk for weeks and l have
been in constant distress all these
years. l suffered terribly from bloat-
ing and had to be very careful of what
/ ate. | became so weak and nervous
/ could hardly go about my housewOrk
and was in a miserable condition.
About two years ago my husband
got such splendid results from Tanlac
he insisted on my taking it and the
medicine wasn't but a little while in
Kidding me of my troubles. 1t gave
me a splendid appetite, and l could
enjoy "a good hearty meal, ever things
any fear OF it troubling me.
Then / had the influenza and be-
came dreadfully sick and weak, but
my stomach kept in good order and it
only DOL four bottles of Tanlac to
build me up again to where I'm nOw
feeling better than at any time | can
remember. / have gained eleven
pounds in weight, too, and words can't
express the gratitude l feel toward
Tanlac. l Keep Tanlac in the house

ROOM FOR YOUNGER CRITICS
They Have a Place in the World and
Duty That Is Well Worth Il,
Performing. -

The younger critics, says Haywood
Broun, are the lineal descendants OF
that little child in Anderson's fairy
tale who, when the emperor was be-
ing made a spectacle of and all the
world was being fooled by the sharp
tailor, refused to be quiet and cried
out, "He hasn't got anything on" These
young enthusiasts who have no posi-
tons to lose and no dignities to live
up to 20 about pointing to all our
literary emperors and calling attention
to the scantiness of their attire Of
greatness, and refuse to be silenced
by their scandaliZed or terrified elders.
Good sense bids us welcome their hon.
est gaze at ever the sacrosanct per-
sons. 1t can't hurt anything really
fine, and It's about time we came out
Of some Of u illusions. William AL
len White sized it up about right from
the conservative point of view when
he said in praising Main Street.: "Of
course, I'm on the other side of the
street myself, but that's just the rea-
son why | like this book. 1t gives US
fellows something to answer" !

DOES PAY?

TINE talk that was started by Miss
Bryn Mawr college, when she assert
ed that in her opinion the professors
of the country should strike for high
er salaries has led many people to ask
themselves whether or not teaching
pays. 1t has long been called the
"worst paid profession" and there is
no doubt that the teacher must sacri-
fee any hopes Of a great income, how
ever eminent he or she may become.
Yet there is no profession Of a more
vital Importance than teaching, and
the teacher should be treated as, and
receive the remuneration of, a valua-
BILE member Of society. Teaching
should be made attractive, and every
means that could induce people of
talent, force, energy and charm TO
take up teaching should be used as a
matter Of course, since the community
Is bound to benefit.
There are some who say that the
vacations of teachers are longer than
in the otlier professions, and this is
so. But the work itself Is extremely
fatiguing; even with the long vaca-
tions, many teachers break down in
what should be the prime of life.
Then these vacations are often cur
tailed by summer work and extension
work.
Teaching In America is largely in
the hands of women. 1t Is woman's
duty to see that teaching is brought
to its highest efficiency, and that 1t is
made attractive to the right people.
Teaching must be better paid or the
men and women who are most needed
as teachers will go into other work.

He imagined his battles long be-

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
TRACE DY."

N ISCONERY of the fact that
~ the word tragedy" is a
compound of two Greek words
meaning goat" and song" and
that a literal translation of the
original term would be "a song
of the goat" throws but little
light upon the modern use OF
the word, until one examines
the custom in vogue in ancient
Greece, particularly in connec-
ton with the production 81
tragedies.
Here, though, we find that The
goat played a central role in
these entertainments, Not only
was one OF the animals offered
as a prize fo7 the best perform
nee by The actors but, because
the goat is very partial TO eat
los grape-vines, and therefore
an enemy of BaCchus-the pa
gan god of wine In whose honor
the festivals were held-one of
them was sacrificed at each pro-
ductiOn Of Il tragedy. Further
to carry out the smile, the ac-
tors were dressed for the most
part in goat skins, because
many of them posed as mar
tyrs, Il custom from which we
obtain our word "satiriCal." The
singing of Il solemn, melanchollc
song was the signal for the sac
rinCe Of the goat, and IL Is be-
cause of this connection that we
apply the word tragedy" to
something which is extremely
sad. whether Oh the stage or in
everyday life.
