she posed for miniature painter and a
Norwegian sculptor. Jordan Dryer. His
statue of her called "Lifedrift" became
well known and Is now In the Boston
Museum.
Through the artists she met an Assy-
rian who gave her her first ideas of
dances of the desert. She became in
terested and read much on the subject.
She also studied desert paintings. She
then went TO Chicago. and at an artists
ball gave several OF the dances She at
once received offers for vaudeville. In
stead of accepting them she went TO the
Orient and travelled. observing and
studying dances. When she returned 90
this country she adapted them 20 the re-
quirements of the etage. In the main
they are the exact dances of the desert.
though for stage purposes they are cut
in length.
Returning 10 this country she made n
tour Of the principal cities. Next che

James K. Hackett's performance Of
Macbeth" last Monday evening at the
State Owned Theatre Odeon. given at
the request of the Ministry OF Fine
Arts. with the proceeds going to French,
British and American charities. was not
only unique in a theatrical way. but
furnished an occasion which for the
brilllancy OF the costumes worn and the
jewels displayed outshone anything
Paris has seen for long time.
The American visitors turned out per-
haps in the greatest number. but 1t was
really an international social event that
Paris staged In this historic theatre,
which long since has ceased to attract
strictly fashionable audiences.
The production itself was accom-
plished under great difficulties. There
was an all glish and American cast.
which was practically the same as the
one I'm the London production. Miss
sybil Thorndyke made flying trip from
London just for the evening to play
Lady Macbeth and received tremen-
dous ovation for her portrayal OF that
famous role.
Mr.. Hackett himself was in fine form.
making this production of Shakespeare
in English interesting in the extreme.
Seats brought as much as 1000 francs
each. Hundreds OF Americans were
turned away at the doors for lack of
seating capacity. The performance
netted $4,000 francs. exceeding the re-
ceipt records OF big gala opera perform
ances given here.
Through an unfortunate oversight on
the part OF the management no tickets
were sent to the French press. so that
the historic performance went almost
unnoticed in the papers here. No per-
formancs at the Metropolitan in New
York has outdone the briiliancy OF this
gathering. Drsssmakers stood in long
lines before the doors watching the cos
tunes Of the fashionable women as they
entered.

NJ ways been one of the man

New York as a summer theatre town.
He was among the first TO keep his
houses open all summer and certainly
one of the pioneers IN making pro-
ductions so late in the year that it was
not possible to decide exactly whether
one season was coming to an end or
another just beginning, But in spite
Of the season he may be said, figure
atively speaking, to have cold feet
about this heated term.

to be. for all theatrical purposes, an
old fashioned one. In other words,
there might be successes that lasted
over from the previous season and
there would, of course. be the special
summer musical shows. But for any
other kind OF enterprise in the the
