M|Tl COMING HERE
MUSICAL COMEDY
LADY BILLY" SOON
Denver Post Critic Says Little
Star Dearest Little

An attraction which will be seen at
the Grand theater at an early date is
Mitzi in Lady Billy, OF her appear
ance a few days ago in Denver, the
dramatic critic of the Post of that city
says:
Sweet, cutie. darling. a perfect dear,
adorable and just little gasps of adj
miration. are in order at the Broadway
this week. AIitzi is there and You will
find very few theatergoers who do not
agree that she is the dearest little
darling on the stage If you do not
think so it will do you no good for you
will be voted down as unappreeiative
of high art, SO you might just as well
be with the crowd.
Even if you are inclined 10 think
that the little comedienne is overesti-
mated. you will probably agree that her
present vehicle, Lady Billy has about
us good a book as any musical comedy
The lyrics, TOO. seem 10 be very clever
but it is more because of the way they
are delivered than because of any great
sparkle that they delight. The music
is ideally suited to a Mitzi play. 1t has
a d~elicacy and charm that is delightful
and is quite distinctive.
"Nitzi is II of those enjoyable per
sons who make their performances APP
pealing because they seem to enjoy
the work so much. There is a fresh
ness about her work. and that of her
company. that gives an appearance of
spontenaity. And Colonel Savage has
seen to it that the production also is
fresh, and pretty. One expects to have
his sense of sight tickled by such an
attraction as this. and that is not pos
sible when the costumes and scenery
show the marks of many performances.
Lady Billy is a relief and a JOY in its
freshness. .
The supporting company is excel
lent and that about sums up all the
requirements for a satisfactory must
cal comedy production of metropolitan
standard"

DADDY" IS TITLE
Of JACKIE C0OGAV'o
NEWEST F|LMPLAY
Story Was Written by Mr..
and Mrs. Coogan; Follows
"Oliver Twist"

A title has finally been found for
Jackie Coogan.s new picture that fol-
lows OLIVER Twist' from the r~eleas-
ing hands of Associated First Nation
al. 1t is to be called Daddy.
In it's production stages the story
was called Fiddle and T., but in
vestigation proved that the title had
already been used and SO another was
sought.
'Titling a %photoplay,' says Jack
Coogan, ST., is harder than deciding
on a nan for q first born. In the
latter case there is usually some
precedent established and the name is
John or James or William unless cir
cunstances argue in favor Of Mary or
Jane. But there never is any prece-
dent for the christening Of a play;
or if there is, you cant use it be-
cause it has been used before. How
ever, we seem to have come happily
out of our perplexities and ..Iackie's
next picture will be called Daddy.
Mothers in pictures have had many an
idealization. in this picture, dad
comes in for a little tribute. The
hero of the plot has three daddies.
in fact, before the story is toid-and
each one is designed to appeal TO that
'paternal instinct which is seldom in-
voked in vain"
Daddy" is an original story writ
Jack Coogan. 1t was directed by F..
Mason Hopper and the claim is made
that it reveals little Jackie in a role
of great power and charm.
Prominent in Jackie's support are
Arthur Edward Carew, Cesare Ora
yina, Josie Sedgwick. Bert Woodruff
and Anna Townsend.

We ARE NOT INTERESTED.

In reply to the Italian note inviting the
u pited States to take part in the propos-
i. I'd international conference in Genoa,
Secretary Hughes said that the confer
ence did not seem to be primarily an
economic one but, instead, appeared to
h. of a political character in which the
United States could not helpfu'ly parti-
4cipate. The views expressed in the lead
ing European newspapers and the utter
a noes of prominent European political
leaders, since the conference was propos-
I'd fully sustain the position of Secretary
Hughes, and well informed people In tins
country are of the opinion that the con-
ference will be political wrangle and
not an economic elaboration.
England is making no secret of the
fact that she desires to. get firm COM
mercial foothold in Russia. 1t is believed
that, for the sake OF obtaining special
trade concession there, England would
nav for the same by recognizing the
soviet. Lenine and Trotzky, as being the
government of Russia. This may or may
not be true, but Jugo- Slavia, Czecho-
Slavia, Poland, Rumania, Esthunia and
Finland believe it is true and have form
ed what is known as the Little En-
tente," and their representatives are 60
ing into the Genoa conference to bitterly
oppose the recognition of the present
Russian government, which recognition
they believe will be a menace to their
commercial and national existence
The old Russia was a steadfast TREND
of the United States and this country
was firm friend of the old Russia. But
the new Russia is the ayowed enemy OF
all established governments. Its recog-
milton or even its quasi-recognitIon by
this country would encourage the Red
Terror here which is already tester In
our body polite. If the United States
sent its representatives to the Genoa con-
ference they would be compelled to with
draw from the conference or take posi-
tive stand, with or against the Little
Entente" This alone is sufficient rea-
son why we should not send delegates to
Genoa, and there are plenty of others, as
follows
The soviet government of Russia has
been invited to enter the conference OIL
equal terms with the United States and
every other invited nation. This is
virtual recognition of that government
with all its heresies and iniquities, by the
proponents of the conference.
Italy is going to insist in the confer
ence that all the raw material of the
world shall be pooled and be distributed
to nations which need them. Under this
arrangement the pool would take our cot
ton, our iron, our copper, our oil and
many other things, fix the price and al
lot them to wnom it chose. Turkey will
demand that treaties affecting her inter-
ests shall be revised in her favor, and
that will reopen the discus sion concern
ing affairs in what is called the near East.
Germany and Bulgaria will insist on
reduction of lndemnites as fixed by the
! treaty. Greece will have her little hatch
ct to be ground. Because of all these rea :
sons, we think Secretary Hughes was
amply justified in concluding that 1t
wo uid be wisdom to respectfully decline
the invitation to the conference.
