Has the volume of jazz so increased

Has the beating of jazz on our ears
become so ineessant that American life
has begun to keep time TO its distorted
rhythm? Is every social pleasure as
Well as our domestic exeistence regu-

sented Monday night at Henry Miller's
Theater. He puts the question and an

OF course he had a puissant ally in
Miss Laurette Taylor. for whom he
wrote the play. Nobody can resist Miss
Taylor. Even il she had set out TO prove
the opposite of Mr.. Mannerss theme
everybody in the theater would have
been on her side at once. She was high
spirited American girl at the beginning
OF the first act last night. She was so
full of pride and her love for an alto
gether unworthy example OF youthful
America that she married him in spite
of the advice of his family. She may
have been moved 10 take him partly by
this parental attitude. She knew in her
own heart, however. that she was wrong.
Just as every woman knows she should
never marry drunkard to reform him.

She stuck. however. to the job even
IL in the second act there was no sign
Of reform. She was at his side and in

When the two moved on to Paris there

and the scene was moved 10 Paris. Ihe
supply of alcohol here was as generous
as the Jazz. Every time door opened
in one act there was flood of caoopho-
nous syncopation. In the next scene there
was the same effect every time windows

planned that the hero always picked out
a room near the dancing. The side
board gushed with the same freedom 1t

Power of the Star.
or course there are few plays that
will stand out by the unique genius OF
Miss Taylor. She is quite incomparab BILE,
which is thrice told tale now. Last
night her acting of q comedy scene In
the first act was exquisite in its nat
uralness and altogether Irresistible
charm. She was as amusing in the later
scene, which introduced her to the dissi-
pations OF the set in which she found
her husband. Her smile, the express
sveness OF her dark and eloquent eyes,
the quizzical turn of her hps-these are
traits that no other actress on the stage
can family suggest in her delineation of
comedy.
Unique as she is IN this field. there
are deeper emotions which are not al
ways so easy for her to express. One
OF these came with her tears in the
third act. But her hysterical prayer
TO be saved after she has swallowed
the poison and above all the rare and
delicate naturalness with which she
played the final scene of the play were
uncommonly fine. The clarity and real
ism of her emotions during the last
five minutes OF the play seemed i'm
pressive. because they lay in the field
that she does not most easily conquer.
So Miss Taylor in "Thc National An
them" was all that her most ardent adj
mirers could have demanded. She was
the same unique genius. Mr.. Manners's
play was picturesque. Its theme Is
novel. 1t proceeds to the constant ac-
compartment OF music--of a kind. If
Richard Wagner were the creator OF
THE National Anthem he would have
called 1t nusik drama, so closely are
the melodies and the dramatic sense
combined. 1t took Jazz In every form
from RimskyKorsakoff through Irving
Berlin down to "Ain't We Got Fun to
tell the tale in sound. Then little Of
Puecini came along at the end. The first
night audience was deniably interested
! in the work, which possesses certain
| timely and theatrical interest.
Miss Taylor was repeatedly recalled
and SO were her associates. All of them
were capable. and Ralph Morgan gave a
| realistic study or headstrong young
man who could not be kept from dissipa-
! ton. Miss Taylor must be seen In her
new role by all who admire her incom-
parable skill.
