Christie. She doesn't shout and
scream her confession; she tells it as
only a real Anna could tell it. She
never acts, she lives. These qualities
have made Pauline Lord one Of the
few really honest actresses we have
on the stage. Her work at times is
wonderful and at other times she be-
comes even more wonderful. Here is
an honest oma playing an honest
characterization. What more tribute
can I pay her?
The work of George Marion as Chris
Christopherson has the same quality
of honesty which Miss Lord gives to
Anna. Mr.. Marion has given the stage
a living Characterization, masterfully
true in the entire conception. Frank
Shannon as Mat Burke, the lover, be.
longs to the honest acting class.
We don't see Marthy Owen, the mis-
tress Of Chris except in the first act
but Mildred Beverly carves a char
acter just as certain life makes it. An
other masterpiece.
Arthur Hopkins, as the producer
has given honest settings.
In this review it has been my pur
pose to be as honest as the author anc
the producer. If you are afraid OF
facts and life. hen stay away from
this play, but If o want to study
life, Anna Christie will not be dan
gerous.

HONESTY CHARACTERIZES PLAY

Burke the truth, Burke laughs at
himself for letting her make a fool
of him. In a fit Of madness, mixed
with hypocritical pride, he picks up
a chair to crush the skull Of the wom-
an he thought was good.
Anna prayed for the chair to fall,
but it didn't.
Burke PUSHES from the coal barge,
pledging himself a rotten time in real
sin. Her father admits he has been
forced to go to an ocean front. saloon
for many a drink.
Anna is left alone.
Then father returns remorseful and
drunk. His head hurts. but he has a
pain somewhere in his soul. His little
gal has been bad" He blames the
devil sea" for that.
Burke returns after a fightin' de-
bauch.
In the end we get the impression
that Anna and Burke will be happy
in their own little home as man and
wife some day.
That's the story Of Anna Christie
by Eugene O'Neill. as told in my own
words.

to picture life I have seen on the
American stage.
Many other writers have handled
similar themes, but they have been
dishonest. In place Of being honest
they have been merely theatrical.
O'Neill doesn't give us sug%ar-coated
characters. He gives us the real bit

rough language of their class, but
above all, he puts a worthwhile soul
in every character. That is where
he is honest.

MANUELlTO, THE GREAT CHIEF

Navajoes gathered around the corral
looking hungrily at the steers-blg,
rangy longhOrns which would soon be
fresh beef for them. Unnoticed by
anyone little Indian boy slipped un-
der the fence and tOddled out into the
Enclosure.
In an instant big steer had trotted
out from the herd and, shaking its
long, sharp horns, advanced upon the
tiny figure, who curiously watched the
animals approach. There was mo-
ment of Mortified suspense-th tall,
straight Indian jumped from the cor
raj fence and In few flying leaps had
placed himself between the baby and
the oncoming steer. There he stood
with arms folded across his breast.
At the same instant the steer charged.
The animal came on with the force
of locomotive. At the last second
It stopped and stood swinging Its head
back and forth with the points of the
sharp horns just missing the breast
of the Indian. But the erect figure did
not finch. Not muscle moved. The
steer was puzzled. Evidently deciding
that II was not worth while to bump
his head on something which might be
q post, the longhorn turned and trot-
ted back to his fellows.
As the Indian walked back to the
corral fence with the baby on his
shoulder there was no agitation In his
manner. For was he not Manuellto,
