COMING CONCERTS

The fifth and final concert OF the
Philadelphia Orchestra's Washing
ton series will be given Tuesday
afternoon at 4:30 o'clock at the
New National Theater under the
local management of T. Arthur
Smith, Inc. Conductor Stokowski
will present as his soloist Nina
Koshetz, Russian soprano. who is
declared to be the foremost actress
singer of her native country.
The orchestral offerings include
The Flying Dutchman," overture
of Wagner: Mendelssohn's Scotch
SYMPHONY and Richard Strauss
superb tone poem. Death and
TRANSPORTATION" When Mr.. Sto-
kowski presented these works at a
recent concert in Philadelphia, n
number of critics declared that the
concert was one of the most beau
tiful and inspiring of the season.
The symphony. which was particu-
larly well received. formed a strik-
ing contrast to the sonorous works
of the two Richards who have been
so largely responsible fo- the revo-
lutionary movement in music.
The Paulist Choristers, under the
direction of Father Finn. will be
heard at the National Theater on
the afternoon of April 81. accord
ing to an announcement from the
playhouse.

theatergoers will recall the polite
chastisement that the immo-tar
Joseph Jefferson once gave an audi
ence when he was forced to step
out Of character at the end of the
second act and make his dutifui
bow to the audience. Jefferson, at
that time, called particular atten-
tion to the detrimental effect of this
practice upon the play and upon hrs
own work, and he pleaded with his
audience to permit players to stay
in character at all times and not
encourage them to shatter the illu-
sion that is thin enough at all times

The present generation of actors
can hardly wait for the Close of an
act, apparently, before they are
thronging on the stage to solicit a
verbal gratuity from the audience
in the form of applause. The audi
ence usually applauds out of polite
ness and frequently against it's
better judgment, but It has been
educated SO long in this way of do
Ing things that it seems to take its
cue as promptly as the star does
upon the stage.
Cannot some attention be called
to this business in the columns of
your valuable paper? If it is not
possible to prevent it entirely,
something should be done to pre-
vent the appearance before the cur
tain of a player who has been

Urges More Revivals.
Dramatic Editor:

Dramatic editors Of the metropol-
itan. dailies have been general in
their complaint during the past the
atrical season of the noticeable
dearth of worthwhile dramas. While
Washington does not have the op-
portunity of New York and Chica-
go in witnessing the majority OF
plays produced, it is true. neverthe-
less, that the dramatic productions
that were brought to this city dur
ing the past season failed to leave
an impression on local theatergoers.
Present indications are to the ef-
feet that next season will find the
stage again without the type of
dramas which may be termed
worthwhile" which leads to the
pertinent question:
why not several revivals for
next season."
David Belasco. the genius of the
aterdom, was without a new vehicle
suitable for Frances Starr last sea-
son, and revived The Easiest Way"
The success which Miss Starr met
in every city with the revival or
that piece was gratifying to say the
least.
william Faversham revived the
SuCCcoS OL MS CdiiiCE oayS ~ @S
Squaw Man" and met with success
in the several cities he visited.
Memory. does not serve me to
name other revivals. although l am
confident there were others. but
the success accorded the two re-
yivals listed above will carry some
argument that the theater pubic
would rather pay to see an old play
they know Is worth while than
new play that they know little or
nothing of.
What a relief 1t would be, after
squirming through many an evening
during the past season at vehicle
billed as The seasons greatest sue
cess" (nearfy all of them are billed
that way) to see a revived produc-
ton of David Warfield, in THE Mu-
sic Master" or "The Auctioneer."
Guy Bates Post in "Omar, the Tent
maker" Otis Skinner in '.Kismet."
Margaret Anglin in The Great d.
vide" THE Girl of the Golden West"
and Passing of the Third Floor
Back"
The above mentioned productions
are only q few that could be re-
vived and am confident with the
revival OF productions of the caliber
named above, theater managers will
refrain from shouting bad season,
terrible business" for such produc-
tons have proved their worth in the
past and the success that met the
reviyals Of last season should prog
