Her Own Money" Is
Big Hit In Newport

It is doubtful if any dramatic eff
fort ever struck home with so much
emphasis, or, at the same time, was
so thoroughly enjoyed by a Newport
audience as Her Own Money,
staged Saturday evening at Lanes
Opera House under the auspices Of
the Young Mems Improvement Club.
And the huge audience present to
witness the great Characterization,
was not slow in displaying its appre-
citation of the fine acting of all the
principals.
The night previous the play had
been produced by the same Vivian
Players in St Johnsbury, where it
scored q mighty hit with the theater
goers. The reception accorded the
Vivian Players in Newport on Satur-
day evening was perhaps even more
enthusiastic than at their preceding
performance. The people of the city
arc grateful to A. E. Bishop, secrc-
tary of the Young Mems Improve
ment Club, whose thoughtfulness was
the cause of Newport's opportunity
to enjoy such high class talent.
To praise one actor would be un
fair without laudipg every member of
the cast All the femlle characters,
the Misses Mary True, Ruth Vivian,
nd Roberta Dcllinger, were much
above the average. On the other
hand, the male characters were no
less satisfying, Clyde Bates, Ralph
Bradley, Charles Hanna and Elmer
Hause.

 NEW YORK, Aug. 24.-It used to be an old saying that the husband and wife couldn't both be inordinate. ly bright This seemed to be espec- ially true where literary talent was involved.
 But Mrs. George Randolph Chester has proved that there is nothing to that notion. For the last g years Mrs. Lillian F. Chester has collabor. ated with her talented husband in all of his books and stories. It is the only case on record of an interna.- tional author working in complete collaboration with his wife.
 It will probably be of interest to thousands of readers to know that Mrs. Chaster aided her husband in writing the famous Wallingford stor, ies It nov develops that Mrs. Chester put many of the peculiar twists into the very original charac- ter of "Biackie Daw."
 In one of her husbands stories there was a wealth of detail regard ing the girls dresses and many read. CTS prohably remarked that mo mere man could write all these details about a pretty girls clothes" And it now develops that it was Mrs. Chester who supplied the feminine touches.
 When George Randolph Chester de cided to picturize his stories several

 While American women are enter. ing all fields of activity and enroll. ing in upositions formerly held sacred to mere men, it has been left to Mrs. Chester to set up a new record for women in motion pictures.
 In collaboration with MT. Chester she recently wrote the story and scenario of the final episode of the Wallingford series.
 Then she accompanied her hus. band to California studio and with him personally directed the screen. ing of the story. Mrs. Chester care fully guarded evey detail, as if she were rearing a child instead of q eel. luoid classic.
