Finds Big Problem in
The Physical Stage

"But the stage and it's intricacies
will be heavy problem. 1t is due to
remark that its failure to advance in
America, or in fact in Europe, is due
to neglect of the fast growing con-
viction that in the physical stage lies
most of the problem of the new theater
and its artistic advancement. Great
as have been the advances made in
scenic designing of recent years, it
has all been above the stage and in the
settings and lightings, all for the sake
of the eye.
I'VE are not going to fit the audi
torium to the stage, as some would have
it, but the stage to the auditorium.
After all, the spectator must be con-
sidered. The artistic stage has to be
practical to live"

George Cohan Tells Us What
All the ShOOtin' Is For
He Promises, Also Third Act for ssThe Tavern i'm
Answer TO Popular Demand for News of the
Vagabond, Quaintest Man You Ever Met

I called Brock Pemberton and said
Now, either this is great play O.,
else it's rotten. If it's great play
we should have to have great audiences
for it, and where should we find them :!
If it's rotten we don't want to do it a.
it is, but'-and there my Tavern grew
out of it.
81 think the Vagabond was a Graz.
actor, don't you? And the reason he
escaped was because he was afrai,
they would catch him and put him in
the Actors Home"
"He wasn't crazy them" said Nj
Cohan. "He was darn sane. But
sort of had that idea myself"
"And what do you think became
him after he slammed the door of tn,
inn and walked out into the storm p
"Then you do love the Vsgabond? p
said Mr.. Cohan with enthusiasm.
81 do, indeed. Don't you?"
"Crazy about him. Like him bette
than any one l ever played. I've beer
wanting to write third act to show
what became of him."
"You may count on us for liberia
support in that movement. But yo,
must be fond of him to play eigh
times week with no remuneration"
Don't you believe it," said MI
Cohan. ~ stand in line every week an,
sign my little slip and get my littl
envelope. But that will be over tn
end of this month, and I'm not goin:
to play again for two years. I'm goin,
to write and produce plays"
"Oh, you can't leave the stage" We
said, II love you; adore YOU"
"Is that a fact?" said Mr.. Cohan
calmly.
Nobody like you," we answered with
conviction. "Think of your Vagabond;
think of your Prince there was and
do not leave us grieving."
do you really think Pm good
actor?" said Mr.. Cohan with that mod
esty which makes every one love him
and that was when he told us the fact.
recorded in the opening paragraph.
"You can do things to line that
nobody else in the world can do"
"Could l get you to put that in writ.
ing?" said Mr.. Cohan.
"Indeed you can. Watch The Sunday

''The Kid Plays Engineer

Jackie Coogan ("The Kid") framed a
special stunt for Screen Snapshots,
known as "the fan magazine of the

before leaving for his home in Califor-
MIA, he pulled giant locomotive out of
the station himself. The scenes are to
be incorporated in an early issue of
Screen Snapshots.

recently while speaking of plans for
the Circle Theater. The changes to
be made there, he said, will not include
any of the main ideas which he has in
mind for his own house. Features of the
new show will require certain struc-
tural changes, but these, he said, will
relate mostly to the lighting effects
Only will he feel that he has done
justice to years of study and expert
mentat,on undertaken in New York
and London when he can build his own
theater

New Strides in
Building Recognized
1--WE Of the American theater have
made vast strides in improving the
auditoriums of the theaters. Strange as
1T may seem, the motion pictures have
had much to do with this. To house
them and their gigantic populaces has
stimulated what is almost an epidemic
of theater building. The Strand. the
Rlalto, the Rivoli and the Capitol in
sequence have revealed mastery in au-
dlrorium construction and beauties of
interiors which may we'll whet the am
bitions of the builders of the legitimate
houses. 1t is we'll to observe, and it is
fair to conclude, that these massive
picture houses have had the effect of
taking out the gallery of the ten
latest new theaters in New York. They
have sounded the knell of the storied
boxes and the various floor strata.
These third galleries are well done
away with for the sake of beauty, safe
ty and health.
mo, am not so keen about the au-
ditorium treatment, because America
has studied it so thoroughly that
know it's architectural masters will
readily grasp the innovations I wish to
put into practice. The extent of the
various studies may be shown by the
floor of an obscure burlesque theate-
in Pittsburgh, which has a most in
genious undulating floor, no boxes, but
from every seat of which, even in the
angles-and wide angles they are, too
the full stage may be seen without
craning the neck; and in fact, the ele-
walton is so perfect that the women
may wear their largest hats through
out the play. So, the auditorium. how.
ever l may wish it, will be in safe
hands

RETIREMENT BILL

County Superintendent Shealy re-
quests the Star to publish the follow
ing, as he has been requested to ascer-
tain the disposition of the teachers of
the county in regard to the proposed
bill:
"The teachers retirement bill pro-
vides that an amount not to exceed
three per cent of monthly salary of
teachers be deducted by school boards
and sent to state treasurer to be kept
to an individual account of each teach
er. The amount deducted shall be in
vested by an investment board COM
posed of the state treasurer, state
comptroller and the state superinten-
dent and shall earn four per cent per
annum compounded quarterly. Any
teacher retiring from the public
school service of the state at any
time shall draw out in one sum the
amount deposited with accumulated
interest. No teacher receives less
! than she deposits with its accumula-
tions. At death the amount due is
paid to her legal representatives. A
teacher may retire at go years of age,
and if she has taught in the public
schools 25 years, Is of which must
have been taught in this state, shall
receive during her lifetime one-half
of her average annual salary from
1920, not to exceed $500 a year. A
teacher may serve seven additional
years If desired. Should teacher be-
come physically disabled after twenty
years of service in the public schools,
fifteen of which shall have been taught
in this state, she may retire on one
half of salary not to exceed $500 a
year. The state is asked to appro-
pirate an amount not to exceed $685.
600 to carry out the provisions of this
act. The teachers will provide an an
nuity for themselves. The state is to
retire those who have during the last
half century served in our schools for
the small salary"
