But furry of genuine surprise

most attractive and popular mem
bers of the younger set. But she
was not content to lead a purpose
less existence, and after peace had
been arranged she planned to take
up the stage as a career. Her sue
cess has been remarkable.
A statuesque brunette OF great
charm and real ability, 1t was not
long before Miss Crosby had made
her Broadway debut, and until the
close of her engagement there this,

she had an important part In "The

4 Childhood Dream, Realized

IT is not often that childhoods
dreams come true in as complete
q manner as has happened to a mem
ber of one Of Washington's old ana
distinguished families.
Those who knew Robert Bell, son
of Mr.. and Mrs. Charles ]. Bell OF
Twin Oaks. in his childhood have

ly. as he is the grandson OF David
Charles Bell. a famous Shakespearean
reader and brother of Alexander Mel

Alexander Graham Bell.

Stafford Pemberton Dancers.

The Stafford Pemberton dancers,
with Anna Ludmilla Of the Chicago
Civic Opera, in the leading role, will
appear at the President Theater Tues
day night, in a program OF what is
claimed to be the very best dancing
OF the stage this season.
An additional feature will be a
specially selected symphony orches-
ira, under the direction of Myer Gold
man, director of the President Or
chestra. The music, the composition
Of George Emmans of Washington,

entire production is loosely woven.
Stafford PembertOn, after having

mans compositions. abandoned his
own program and engaged his find"
to prepare pieces for the entire pro-
gram, so that the music which will
be played will be heard by the public
for the first time.
Mr.. Pemberton is himself famous as
dancer. He was the partner Of Ger
trude Hoffman, for one season at the
Winter Garden. and has danced in
the leading theaters of Boston, New
York, Philadelphia and Chicago.
Anna Ludmilla will make her first
appearance outside Of opera Tues
day. Heretofore she has refused to
dance In concert, and only because of
personal friendship for Mr. Pember-
ton. it Is said, has she consented to
appear.

While to some observers of theatri-
cal details this might seem due 10
dissatisfaction, in the old days it
could have meant nothing else, yet,
as matter of fact, 1t merely serves

being given to the production" idea
in stock today-the idea Of selecting
first the play and then assembling Il
cast specially equipped to handle
such a play.
In the case of the President Players,
many changes were made in the cast
for the run of Anne Nichols "Abie's
Irish Rose" Even more sweeping
changes were made to get proper in

gers" From present indications, the
President management proposes 10
contract with no player longer than
for a particular play. II the actor
happens to be suited for succeeding
play he will be retained. II not, he
will be dropped.
1t seems a long call from the days
when the leading man and the lead
ing woman, with their specific apti-
tude for romantic scenes, were pri-
mary in stock and the play itself of
quite secondary Importance, but 1t Is
a change that makes for better drama
