Second First Nights

~ Il y y p 2 I 3
Dear Sir; Although "The Batp now
is well along in its third year, hadn't
seen it until the other night. That
it is delightfully."- entertaining and fur
nishes q plausible excuse, ut least, for
Its producers claim that it is "the best
mystery play in town." is, I take it,
sufficiently demonstrated by the length
Of its sojourn on Broadway. Person
ally, I don't see how any one in search
! Of pleasant evenings relaxation,
highly seasoned with thrills, could re-
greet visit to the Morosco Theater.
But the purpose in writing this note
was not to praise dramatic pieces
which most apparently 10 in no dire
need Of praise. While enjoying ssThe
Bat" the thought came to mind that
it might not be bad plan for pro-
fessional critics to review over again
| o play that had run continuously for
a year.
It seemed to my admittedly amateur
eye and ear--that some OF the acting
was rather slovenly for Broadway. ]
wondered If one Of the cast in par
ticular tits no part Of my province to
point an unskilled finger of adverse
criticism at any individually hadn't gone
pretty stale, to put ii mildly, and II come
others were up to their original form
thought Il might be possible that the

company had fallen away from tAS
original direction.
To the lay observer 1t would seem
reasonable that there might be some
deterioration in dramatic performs
ance after the cast had been repeating
the same lines and going through tho
same motions day after day for
months. IA
The question Is, would tbs plan Of
reviewing a performance on its arst
annual anniversary have the effect 81
lacking up the cosnpany--is there wsrs
any need Of jacking 1t up? And would
1t be practical to review a play q sse-
ond time? y
As the matter stands, belleve stkA
plays the thing" with ssThe Bat.n In
fact, the plays SO decidedly the thing
that it might be possible that better
acting would not make ID any more sues
cessful from box once viewpoint.
However, there's always the artistic
viewpoint that we hear so much about
Anyhow, let's hope that Mary Rob-
erts Rinehart and Avery Hopwood doa's
look upon "The Bat as thelr last efs
fort at thrilling and mystifying tns
theatergoing public. I'd 60 to ~
their next effort long before it was q
year old-'even IL sll the bad sctcrs
in America were In the company.

wholly thrown off the spell of Grand
Guignolism-sh she afforded glimpse
of the versatility which is one Of her
chief assets. In this curtain raiser a
brilliant and triumphant young beauty,
she appeared in the main play of the
evening as the disiliusioned, patiently
enduring working wife and
mother, work-worn and wearied Of the
self-indulgence Of the weak, genial
wastrel who is her husband and the
father of her two children.
Her first appearance in management
was highly successful, with brilliant
audience and great enthusiasm, APP
plause stopping the action on her first
entrance in the curtain-raiser COT
which, by the way, she has remarked
that it does not matter what curtain
raiser you put on, because nobody
wants to see one-act plays in Eng

enthusiastic part of the hrst night
audience was made up of faithful fol-
lowers fron, the "old Vic" and it re-
mains to be seen what welcome Lon

London Stage
BY Ware B. Wells

n ONDON, Aug. london has lost
its Grand Guignol and gained q
new theatrical management. Sy-
bill Thorndike, for two years pillar Of
the Grand Guignol productions at the
Little Theater, this week has started
at the New Theater as actress-mana-
ger on her own account. Associated
with her in the undertaking is Lady
Wyndhanl, and with her own executive
genius she has combined the instinct
as a producer Of her husband, Lewis
Casson. The adventure at the New
Theater is, indeed, the most interest
ing alliance Of dramatic art at the mo-
ment in England.
Whether the Grand Guignol Is dead
for good still is uncertain. It Is diff
cult to imagine it persisting without
Sybil Thorndike, who showed herself
at the Little Theaeer perhaps the
greatest tragic actress that this coun-
try has produced in this generation. If
the Grand Guignol, falling somebody
to take the place she filed in St, is to
become memory, tbs doubtful if it
will have many mourners here. BY
dint Of sheer ingenuity it managed for
two years to keep, pretty full houses,
but throughout it had to rely mostly
on adaptations Of foreign plays, and,
once its bizarre novelty had worn off,
it was very questionable whether
there could be any permanent place
here for productions 80 alien to the
British dramatic tradition. Anyway,
the loss Of Sybil Thorndike is for the
present at least the end Of the Grand
Guignol.
Her new venture In management Is
being closely watched BY all who care
for the Art Of tbs theater hers. She
has taken the New Theater for sea-
son Of at least Ave months, and plans
to produce there d mixed repertory Of
plays, Of which the first, produced this
week, is st. John Ervine's aJane
Clegg.' There are few actresses bet
ter qualified to handle many sided
repertory. Her experience has been
varied and cosmopolitan. She has
played III comedy, In romantic drama,

TERM STANDARDIZED FOWLS
Means That Bird Referred to Con-
forms to Standards Of Color,

A purebred, whether 1t Is hen or
a cow, means that the animal comes
from definitely recognized breed and
that the parents were purebred animals
of the same BREED IF an animal has
lineage Of pure breeding, which can
be definitely proved, and thus makes
the animal eligible for registration, 1,
is then purebred animal. There Is
the added stipulation that an animal
must be healthy, vigorous and cred

to be purebred.
In reference to poultry breeding,
perhaps the best terms Of all to indi-
cate 100 per cent blood is the express
sion standardized" This means
that the fowl referred to as standard
bred is one which conforms to the
standards Of form, color, markings,
weight, etc., for the various breeds
under the standard Of perfection Of
the American Poultry association.
Standardized is a term which is
growing in popularity among those do
ing business in the purebred poultry
field, and Is perhaps more distinc-
tive expression than any other which
might be used with reference to poul-
try. Of course, there are standard
bred horses which refer to distinct
breed Of light horses, including both
trotters and PAGERS eligible to regis
tration in the trotting registry.

HEN NEEDS SHELL MATERIAL
Tests Show Decrease In Number Of

Tests made at the University Of
Wisconsin experiment station, where
the feeding Of hens could be watched
closely, show that hens have q
tendency to cut down on the number
of eggs they lay when they run short
Of material which goes into the egg
shell. Some believe that soft shells
come as a result Of not having suffl.

So, for keeping up the number Of
eggs, 1t is essential that hens running
free on the farm have supply of

other mineral grit, near where the
flock is fed.
