Seat Price a Factor.

THE record of success rolled up by
the President Players since they
opened last October with Sammy Ship
mans East Is West" seems convinc-
ing evidence that the great American
theater-go.ng pubic is becoming
thrifty in Its theater purchases - a
custom which went out of fashion for
time when war wages made II pos
sible to sell at $3.50 a seat a theater
production of almost any kind.
AS far as the directing heads Of the
President Players are concerned, 1t is
said, this theory of a more cautious
seat-buying public Is tenaciously
held. AS directors Of the enterprise
which first made a success Of 81 stock
throughout the entire period OF the
winter, they believe that their suc-
cess can be explained largely on the
basis that the production offered was
reasonably priced and that the public
was not long in finding 1t out. as
shown by a twelve-week engagement.
They regard their own success with
popular-priced drama, when the Sc
theater had one of the poorest win
ters in its history. as impressing an
important fact. Attractions like "The
Bat" THE Music Box Revue and a
number of others did good business In
Washington, but the ones that showed
a good profit in Washington were
plays about which the public had no
doubt. 1t was not a year for buying
uncertain entertainment at the 81
price.

statement was made. on the authority
of the shows representative, that
"the gowns are the last word in style
from Paris, designed and made by
Paul Poiret"
The local representative Of the firm
Of J. NJ. Giddings & Co. Of New York
states: 1T is true that Paul Poiret

these costumes. but the majority of
the costumes worn in this production

features of the free show
were golden showers of forsythia

shoots as outstanding as soldiers or

pretty soon.
Into the sunny silence came three
observers from childhood land, though
prosaic folks might locate them as
so many microbes from one of the
much advertised slum streets under
the shadow of the dome" One was a
small girl, who was mostly bone, with
black shadows under eyes that were
too big. Also, d snivelly little cold
But her skinny legs were electric
with JOY as she skipped around a
bush, calling out, as If it were a sing

A speck of boy had eyes like
black fire and a burr on the end OF
his tongue. Also a different opinion:
'If 1 could pick them things I'd
sell 'em for 10 centa the bunch and

The second boy. who might have
been the girls brother, had every
day blue eyes and good-natured
view of the case in hand:
You'd oughta give 'em away for
nothin': there's such a big plenty OF
'em."
"Td druther let 'em be-" put in the
girl. I'D druther they'd stay JUS SO.
They look so satersfied out here all

And it is a sure thing that some
day in Washington there will be a
rich man, a generous man and
woman with a soul--if she lives.
And the rich man will have eyes
like black fire and a burr on the end
Of his tongue.

about fairy godfathers. who are every

Established in 1897

~ TWENTY SIX years ago, the first store was opened
in a small way. The history of the growth of the
& McCracken Chain Stores is a record of enterprise,
a story of broadening and of achievement. In connection
with the policy to serve the patrons faithfully and econ
Omicaly it established a system of selling merchandise for
cash, thus eliminating the expense of costly credit systems
and by so doing, making it possible for a more economical
distribution of merchandise McCracken's prices were
considered lower and the buying public was at once at
tracted.
So the first store was started, until now the McCracken
Chain Stores extend over three states, Montana, Wyoming
and Nebraska The buyers for the McCracken Chain Stores
maintain an exact knowledge of the worlds best markets
and a standing in these markets which enables them, at
all times, to secure unusual and very desirable advantages
for their patrons. Before buying or sending away for
