BELASCO-"Getting Gertie's Gar
ter1

One of the string of hilarious farces
that has made New York sit up and take
notice within the last few years-a
string which has included Fair and
Warmer" and "Parlor. Bedroom and
Bath,'-will be presented tonight for the
first time IN Washington by the Belasco
players at the Belasco theater. 1t Is
Getting Gertie's Garter" the "hay-
NOV" play that made the metropolis
laugh until it gasped.
The story had to do with the desper-
ate efforts of Gertie to give back, after
her marriage, a diamond studded garter
that had previously been given her by
Ken Waldrick. Both feel it quite desir-
able that the garter should be returned
lest their soouses discover its existance,
and Gertie's attempts to return IL are no
more laughable and earnest than ken's
efforts to receive IT. The situation
gives rise to numerous complications
that furnish a most hilarious evening" S
enjoyment.
The Belasco company is increased
this week by Lillyan Tasham. The
players who will appear in Getting
Gertie's Garter" will include also Wanda
Lyon. Hilda Vaughn. Carolynn Wade.
Henry Duffy. Earle Foxe. Harris Gill
more, Lemheire Gendrie and Jay Strong.
Several in the company appeared in
the original New York production. The
play will be staged by Lumsden Hare
and the scenery is by Cleon Throck-
morton. There will be the usual
matinees.

Avery Hopwood's Farces.

THE progress of American farce,
L from the pre-Hopwood days up

the manner in which the American
stage has been popped up in the
last two decades.

brought, as an aid to it's exploita-
tion, a massive electric sign, which
read, "Oh, 1 don't know-Tm not SO
SLOW" And Broadway blinked, for
THE Turtle" was several knots in
advance of Broadway's speed limit.
But Avery Hopwood has set an en-
tirely new pace in farce. In working
out complications, original situations
and rapid action. he is without peer

Short trips to the seashore are
being featured by the Norfolk and

sort. A new concrete highway has

Norfolk and the beach, affording a
delightful ride.
Ocean View. it is claimed. offers the
best fishing of any resort on the At
lantic coast. Bathing is excellent.
Ocean Park, a new resort at the
mouth of Lynhaven inlet. will prove
attractive to those devotees of the
art Of angling who desire great va
riety. Boats are available for deep
sea fishing. Buckroe Beach, just
north of Old Point Comfort, on the
bay, is famous resort. Excellent
blue fishing can be had off the rocks
a short distance from shore.
For those who insist that bass fish
ing affords the only true sport Lake
Smith, a fresh water lake between
Norfolk and Cape Henry, will satisfy
the most critical angler. The average
run Of large-mouth bass is between
three and five pounds. but often one
of eight or ten pounds is taken.

lon. Owing to the great length of
