In common with many of those who
achieve in the theatrical world, Harry
Wagstaff Gribble. the author Of March
Hares," the satirical comedy now play
Ing at the Punch and Judy Theatre,
comes of stock to whom the play
house and all appertaining thereto was
tabooed. In fact, the young play
wright was 20 years old before he
ever saw the inside of a theatre and
then. perforce. his peep into the pa
rentally forbidden was surreptitious
one. The following year he became an
actor and in twelve years, being now
80. he has had two plays produced on
Broadway. last season "The Out
rageous Mrs. Palmer" and the current
attraction at the Punch and Judy.

OF several vaudeville sketches
There were small beginnings. long
waits between engagements as an actor
and disappointments aplenty as a
playwright. His first engagement was
with Liverpool repertoire company
under the direction of Basil Dean for
SIS a week. The following season he
rose to the heights Of SIS a week, but
with another managon1ant. Engage
ments with Sir Frank Benson, Arthur
Bourchier and Lynn Harding preceded
two years tour Of Africa with w.
e. Holloway, an actor better known
in England than on this side. His first
engagement here was with Miss Patrick
Campbell.
In 1914 Mr.. Gribble returned to his
Jected. When the United States en-
tered the war he was more fortunate
in his attempt to enlist and was ac-
cepted By the Twenty-seventh Division
but, however, was promptly affiliated
with its amusement field. After nine
months in camp he put on the first OF
the great soldier shows, You Know
Me, AL" which made a profit of $780,
900 in four weeks. His overseas serv-
ice was one continual round OF writing
and staging Of soldier shows. On his
return to America, after the signing
of the armistice, he did Lets Bea,

The first long play by Mr.. Gribble

Other cameras OF the same type were
placed behind slits in the oval wall sur
rounding the track, so that every foot
OF the races was filmed.
This. however does not explain the
"close-ups" of the race, where Vashti
and Sheba are seen driving directly tow
ard the camera. These, perhaps. are the
most thrilling scenes of all. for the very
expression on the women's faces can be
seen as they urge on their horses. This

BIG HIPPODROME BUILT TO FILM
"OUEEN OFSHEBA"CHARIOTR TRACE

In connection with the film production
OF The Queen of Sheba." one Of the
spectacular features is the chariot race.
There are really two races, the first be-
ing between a number Of chariots. each
drawn by four horses. and the second
being the speed contest between the
chariot OF Sheba, driven by Miss Betty
Blythe, and that Of her rival, the Prin-
cess Vashti played by Miss Nell Craig
The mere statistics of this race and tho
preparations convey rough idea Of the
task that confronted the director.
The construction OF the Hippodrome
for the races took eighty-five men six
weeks. 1t has an oval track, being

THE IRISH PEACE CONFERENCE

xfTHE Irish problem is soluble" was the message given to the
world a few days ago by General SHUTS, the premier Of South
: Africa.
That General SHUTS a not basing his judgment upon theory
but upon first hand knowledge of the facts in the situation is shown
by the rapid development Of events which Immediately followed.
President DE Valera Of the Irish republic has Agreed to attend
the conference at London 20 which he has been invited by Lloyd
George aud a truce between Great Britain and Ireland has been de
elared, TO continue while the conference is being held.
While il would be taking too optimistic a view OF the situation
TO predict with certainty that the 7O0ycar war between the British
and the Irish is about to end. there are many encouraging factors
upon which TO base such a prediction.
The most potent of these factors is that General SHUTS has
thrown himself into the negotiations with all the ardor and energy
of his tremendous personality, with the evident determination to eff
fecta settlement.
That within a few days of his arrival in Dublin, he has succeeded
IN overcoming what q few weeks ago seemed insuperable obstacles to
a hcarttoheart talk between the British and Irish leaders at the capt.
tai Of the empire, augurs well for what he will be able to accomplish
in the future.
II Is extremely doubtful whether the Irish leaders would have
agreed to go 60 London without guarantees from SHUTS that the
British government was prepared 20 discuss a settlement upon a basis
far more liberal in its terms than any it has yer proposed to the
Irish direct.
There is strong evidence that the liberalty of these tentative
terms rs due largely 10 the pressure put upon the British government
by Smuis end the other dominion premiers who have been attending
the imperial conference in London during the past few weeks.
Assuming the correctness of this Interpretation of the situation,
the final settlement. IL there is one, may be expected to give to Ire
land the same position in the empire held by Australia, Canada and
the other dominions
Two things re- clear. First, the British government will not
consent 10 the withdrawal Of ireland from the empire and the crea-
ton Of an Irish republic. Second, the Irish leaders have finally be-
come convinced of this and also of their inability TO accomplish their
complete independence by force.
ii. IS seems likely. SHUTS has convinced the Irish leaders that
the position of Ireland az a Seif-governng dominion will carry with
il certain advantages that would not attach 10 ireland as an indie
pendent republic, and that in any event AN Irish republic is not within
the possibilities, the greatest obstacles to a solution Of the Irish prob
lem have been removed.
