The Theatres
WASHINGTON

y According to Charlotte Greenwood,
It's a, great mistake for comedienne
TO pay any attention to show or Shake
speare. She must just make up her
mind to be funny and let it go at that,
no matter what her family or Sunday
School teacher may think.
Miss Greenwood, who comes to the
Washington theatre Thursday, in OH
yer Morosco's musical comedy, "Linger
Longer Lefty" speaks from exper-
fence, as she started to be serious on
the stage and made an awful mess
OF it.
The reason so few women on the
stage are genuinely funny" says the
bean-pole coincidence. is that they re-
fuse to be or look ridiculous. For six
years l took just that point of view.
| wanted to be great dramatic star
or prima donna, but all that time l was
fighting against nature. 1t took me all
that time to realize that l wasn't built
10 shine as Ophelia or the Merry
Widow. But when I did see the light
my good friends came running to me
with fearful complaints and were very
much opposed to my intention, but l
had the crowd with me and that set
tied it. Once you have your following,
and particularly if an audience blows
UP every time you put your foot
through the chandelier, then you can
disregard what your relatives and
friends may be saying 1t was beau
tiful girl who put me on the right
track. Her name was Burnham, she
was going into vaudeville, with beauty
as her big asset and she wanted some
one ungainly and funny looking, and
from that / went straight up to star
dom with a rush. I was in musical
comedy less than two years, when my
name went up in electric lights, so
you see it pays to be funny. It's an
OLD story, but still one that stage folks
have learned by bitter experience.
Ritter is no name for the tears l shed
before l learned my lesson.

BIG MUSICAL SHOW COMING.
Famous Marcus Show of 1920 En-
Route From Pacific Coast To
New York City,

The biggest musical attraction that
has invaded this section since pre-
war days is now en- route from San
Francisco and Los Angeles to New
York. Theatre-goers in this section
will have an opportunity to see this
attraction, the Marcus Show of 1920,
during it's engagement in Atlantic City
at the Apollo theatre for one week,
commencing Monday, April A..
There are nearly one hundred per-
sons engaged. Many of these are the
famous Marcus Peaches. There is a
special orchestra and it requires a
special train of three baggage cars and
an equal number of Pullmans to trans
port the big organization.
Not in years has an attraction made
such an unqualified hit On the Coast as
that enjoyed by the Marcus Show.
But few cities are being visited be-
tween the Coast and New York, where
the Marcus Show inaugurates it's met
ropolitan engagement early next
month.
In commenting on the attraction a
leading Middle Western paper said re-
Gently:
"a Musical Revue with a sort of in
door circus tone and INVERNESS OF ac-
ton, the Marcus Show of 1920, won
the approval of an audience hat last
night filled the Columbia.
Girls, gorgeous costumes and
agreeable comedy are the features,
and though it seems to have been the
intention of the producers to give an
advance impression that the show
might engage the attention of the cen
sor, if such an official still be among
us, there was nothing to seriously war
rant objection.
ut must have cost the managers a
lot of money to bring this big organiza-
ton of girls out from the East with
the higher railroad rates now in force.
Considerable has been saved by doing
away with tights, but this item alone
cannot offset the increased transpor-
tation charges. There must be sixty
or seventy people in the company be-
ing Klaw & Endangered over the West.
Really, it is an astonishing show
that of Marcus, 1920.
after all, the girls and costumes,
with the vivid and artistic lighting eff
fects and stage pictures, such as The
Birth of Venus, are what lend import
ance to the show. The costumes GER
tainly are daring, and the girls have
to be to wear them"

If q teacher in a public school in
the Philippines desires to punish a
child, she doesn't have to apply the
ruler. She simply sentences the offend
ing pupil to remain away from school
a few daysi
This is the most severe punishment
she can inflict, for Filipino children
take an almost abnormal pleasure In
going to school and acquiring an edu-
cation. The all-1ilipino legislature, in
response to the popular demand for
schools, and still more schools" Is
constantly increasing its appropria-
lions for education, but the schools can
scarcely be constructed fast enough to
care for the ever-increasing enrolment.
The school enrolment Is now $4,000
without any compulsory attendance
laws. When Dewey sailed into Manila
Bay there were 2,100 private schools
in the islands. Today there are $500
schools and colleges, with 1900 Fill
Pine teachers and about 1000 other
teachers, 341 of whom are Americans.
The University of the Philippines is
the center of learning Of the entire
Orient, and is the pride of the Fill
pino people. 1t, has an enrolment of
$500 students. Santo Tomas univer-
sity of Manila, older than Harvard, is
another famous seat of learning.
The school system includes normal
schools, agricultural colleges, twenty
sever farm schools, a nautical school
and a school for the deaf and blind.
The Filipino pupil, in addition to
learning English and in addition to his
regular studies learns basket making.

There are more positions than can be

In the last analysis, however, the
best protection against colds, grippe,
pneumonia and other kindred diseases
is a good physique.
A healthy body will throw off the
germs while the overworked body of
an overfed, tired, sickly man will not.
That's the reason it pays to keep in
condition by taking exercise systemat-
ically, eating moderately, breathing
deeply and sleeping eight hours a day.
