Did You Hear

ME approaching engagement OF
Henry Miller at the Empire
Theater possesses several
aspects interesting not only to the actor
but to his admirers. 1t is Mr.. Miller's
first appearance in years on stage
which brought to him many OF the tri-
umphs of his early career He and
Viola Allen headed the stock company
which Charles Frohman formed for his
personal playhouse and were associated
with some of the most notable successes
of that day. Now Mr.. Miller Is return
ing to act there and, moreover, under
the management OF his own son. Gil
bert Miller Is the present director OF the
Charles Frohman, Inc, and manager OF
the Empire.
"I was looking the other day." Mr..
Miller said to q reporter for THE NEW

He would probably take refuge, how
ever, in the excuse that the right
actors could not be found.
Grateful for Fine Acting.
Yet an audience, however sophisti-
Gated 1t may be. Is rapturously CRATE
full for fine acting. When 1t comes
more or less unexpectedly there Is no
end to the demonstration it may
arouse. Miss Alexandra Carlisle had
an opportunity to show the audience
in the final scene OF the third act OF
Fools Errant" what fine actress is.
She had confronted the woman from
whom she had taken her husband and
then her lover. So she was suffering
under her bitter reproaches, tremu-
lously. half inarticulately seeking to
defend herself for something she could
not in reality be blamed for.
This part Of the disappointed singer
who had drifted into the position of a
courtesan and then wife, on a phil
anthropic basis. as It were. possessed
little variety. 1t was In a minor key.
with few departures from the domi-
nant note OF weak pathos
Miss Carlisle. under the inspiration
Of Its single dramatic minute, flashed
into a sudden flame of skill that set
the spectators at once into warm and
thankful applause. A world of con-
triton. modification and fear were
expressed in her fearful voice and in
the haunted look in her unhappy eyes.
1t was a finely conceived and ire
sistibly executed achievement in the
best kind CT histrionism 1t touched
indeed the high mark of sincerity in
the play.
1t is unfortunate that the date at
which plays are given Is not made
public with them. Mr.. Shipman's So
ciology has rather appaliingly dated.
Even the parlor Bolshevilo to which
his hero Is undeniably related would
never have claimed that any sort of
good could be accomplished with the
working people in his Western town
by his palliative methods. Checks to
travel for a change Of air do not corr
rect abuses founded on fundamen-
tally wrong economic conditions. Mar
rying their mistresses does not send
men back to their wives.
The popular theater may be difficult
enough at times to accept, but II is
better than plays of ideas when the
ideas are just as old and just as arti-
fetal as the methods OF the popular
play. The merely box Office play is
preferable II II is to be tricked out
only with ethics false as those that
dominate Fools Errant." Yet moth
ing about that solemn work seems 80
incredible as the fact that 1t was writ

DANCING AT CLOVER GARDENS.

Glover Gardens. In the Grand Central
Palace building, one of the largest dane
ing areas in the country, appears to
have caught public fancy and to be
enjoying the patronage of those ever
on the alert for the best place to
dance and to dine. Bert Ambrose and
his orchestra, formerly at the Embassy
Club. London. have been retained for
the dancing number. and newer dane
ing arrangement, a long dance with
encore and three part series. seems to
have answered a very wide demand
for something different. Dining on the
balconies after the theater Is popular.
This has encouraged the management
to consider to III up inside the same
arrangement and retair the same

Engineer Says Britain circu-
Iating Well Designed Propa-
ganda to Help Own Aims.

Stories supposedly emanating
from Berlin this morning to the
effect that prohibition had been
placed upon the building Of large
airships for the United States were
characterized as a clever piece OF
British propaganda and part of the
British move to secure dominion OF
the air, by G. A. Tinker, Washing
ton consulting engineer, who during
the war was on aeronautical duty
in Britain and France and has
since been active in international
airship work.
This propaganda 10 part OF a
plot to prevent construction or dirl-
gibles until the plans Of the British
council of imperial defense can be
brought to fruition. giving Great
Britain mastery of the air 80 firmly
that 1t will be impossible to unseat
her." Mr.. Tinker declared.
This particular bit Of propa-
ganda, however, is not based on
fact. 1t is not authoritative. There
can be no Limitation Of airship size
without approval OF the council of
ambassadors. The Washington con-
ference agreed that there was to be
absolutely no limitation placed upon
the size or number OF lighter.than
air craft built.

of these were destroyed. OF the
remaining seven two each went to

to Japan. The United States wanted
no spoils of war and got none.
Last spring the State Department,
through Ambassador Herrick, asked
that Germany rebuild one ship for
this country. They asked that
this ship be of 100000 cubic meters
capacity.

OF the British council were secretly

result. the State Department framed
