GARRICK-Hampden in Roper
toire,


More than ordinary interest is felt
| in the engagement of Walter Hamp-
den and his company for this week
at the Garrick. Mr.. Hampden is ever
a welcome visitor to this city and
his performances always draw large
and deeply interested audiences. His
| Iimpersonation of. three Shakespearean
characters will be unusually appeal
| ing at this time, owing to the pre-
vailing attention being given to the
creations Of the great bard. Many will
anticipate pleasure in comparing his
Interpretation of Shylock with that
recently presented here by David
Warfield. His program for the week
follows:
Monday-"Othello."
Tuesday-"A New Way to Pay Old
Debts"
| Wednesday-"Ha
[ Thursday afternoon-"Shylock
Thursday. night-''The Servant of
1.-THE House"
! Friday-"Hamlet."
Saturday afternoon-"The Servant
Of the House"
| Saturday night-"Othello."
He win portray Sir Giles Overreach
| in Massinger's sardonic comedy, "A
New Way to Pay Old Debts" in which
many great actors have won renown
Throughout three centuries.
| 'Othello," in which Mr.. Hampden
IWlIl appear as the MOOT, IS cOnSioereu
the outstanding feature of the roper
toire. The tragedy is accounted by
many as the best play in the English
language when viewed as piece OF
dramatic action.
His Hamlet" is considered his most
famous role and he will devote two
nights to il.
! His "Shylock'' has been styled a
magnificent creation. It's reception
| in New York was amazing. Though
the New York Evening Post regard
ed his Shylock as "the best seen in
parts from the traditional Shylock OF
Irving But the message in the play
as Mr.. Hampden believes Shakespeare
conceived it is not one of race preJu-
| dice; rather it is the triumph Oh
which is exemplified in the court
room scene JIM .Portia's mercy

Blossom Time Returns to P0HS S

An overwhelming success in Wash
ington during its recent engage
ment at Polis-where hundreds were
turned away unable to procure places
Of any sort to witness the charming
operatta written around the life and
love Of Franz Schubert-it is easy to
believe Manager Leavitt's statement
that he has been besieged with re-
quests to know when Blossom Time"
was to return. ever since its company
folded its tents and departed from
Washington. He took up the mat
ter with the New York Office of the
Messrs Schubert, the producers of
Blossom Time" and with such good
effect that today he is able to an
nounce the return of Blossom Time"
to Polls for a week, commencing
Sunday, March 4.

HOu TO LiUe.

"DoNT diet; eat what you want!"
Now comes forth Agnes Ayres,
sedate but charming screen star, and
throws this bombshell into the care
fully evolved theory Of dietetics.
Some one had asked what her rules
were for the preservation Of beauty
and health.
Back in the prehistoric days" Miss
Ayres explained, when man chose
his food by instinct, as do the ami
mails, instead Of trying to govern his
body through the stomach by adher-
ing to a basis of chemical formulas,
there wasn't any poor health and
poor people lived longer.
IT have never dieted in my life. I
kelieve that nature points out the
Evening star., 1923-02-11

needs OF our body by whettine our
tastes for certain foods. When cat
tie need salt their tastes crave salt.
And the only real difference between
human beings and animals is that
human beings possess the faculty of
reason.
MY theory, therefore. is eat what
you want, but don't overeat. The old
rule that says cease eating just be-
fore you are fully satiated is a good
one to follow"
Other beauty. rules advocated by the
Paramount star are: Regular hours
of sleep. Sleep by schedule, if possi-
ble. Plenty of good exercise. Exer-
else of any kind is good, and the ex-
ercise we most enjoy is the exercise
that most benefits US. because we are
more apt to indulge in it regularly"
Now, everybody can be beautiful
and healthy and happy.

chance to get the seats they want for
this most delightful operatta of re.
cent years" He advises the small
army of persons who Erieved because
they could not get locations they
wanted. to get in line as soon as the
date OF the seat sale is announced
And meantime, he will be glad TO re-
ceive mail orders. the same to be
numbered and filed as they are re-
ceived, to be filled as soon as the
mail order sale be opened.

Sorro,0 for J. E. Coofer
THERE has been sorrc

THERE has been sorrow among the
people at the Gayety Theater be-
cause Of the recent death in New York
of James Z. ("Blutch'') Cooper, pro-
ducer of burlesque attractions. Mr..
Cooper was personally known to prac-
ucally every one in burlesque from
stage hands to stars. He had travelled
with his own companies over the Co
lumbia Wheel, both as star and man
ager, for several years, and his death
becomes a loss to burlesque because Of
his constant effort to improve the char
acter of his shows and thus influence
others.
Durlng the present season Fony
boree'' were three of the shows that
Mr.. Cooper produced and managed. He

Krkwood Prefers Acting

THERE are many screen actors who
have deserted acting to become
directors. But there are some, who
once having become directors, return
to the right side of the camera to
resume acting. James Kirkwood,
who plays the leading male role in
"Ebb Tide is one Of the few. Mr..
Kirkwood entered pictures in 1907
and after some years quit acting to
become a director. He directed Billie
Burke, Thomas Meighan and Mary
Miles Minter. But in 1919 Mr.. Kirk
wood laid away his megaphone and
once more strode before the camera
"Ebb Tide" is his latest picture. in
which Mr.. Kirkwood plays the part
of college failure"

POLI'S-McIntyre and Heath.

Mcintyre and Heath come to Polls
Theater for a week, beginning to-
night, with their new musical COM
edy, Red Pepper" with the same
cast that was seen for an entire
theatrical year at the Shubert
Theater, in New York. Mcintyre and
Heath head the organization in a
play which stood the test Of New
York, Chicago, Boston and Phila-
delphia' for long runs.
"Red Pepper" is so called because a
race horse by that name is the foun-
dation OH which the fun plot rests.
It is claimed that from a spectacular
viewpoint this production Is the last
word in scenic construction, as an
exact reproduction of the Havana
esque atmosphere Of the clubhouse
lawn, with fifty beautiful girls who
charm the eye with snappy dancing,
gives a zip to the scene.
Mcintyre and Heath last appeared
here in Hello, Alexander" which won
much praise. and in Red Pepper
they are claimed to be funnier and
more spectacular.
The supporting cast comprises Flor
ence Rayf1eld, ,of Winter Garden
fame; Dan Quinlan, Jack Ryan, for

ney, the latter composer of Irene" /;
Darling sisters, Bee Ho Gray, Brennan

care, l feel very much better. but, of
course, must wear glasses. For
tunately, in this part glasses are ap-
propriate."
Mr.. Drew has grown noticeably
stouter. His face is fuller, but the
mouth is the same firm mouth, with
out a betraying wrinkle. Only a
whitening of the hair indicates the
passage of years.

BOY SCOUT SAVES COMPANION

On a recent rowing trip Scout Lewis
Wood Of East ST. Louis. Ill.,, and a
companion had gone about fifty yards
from shore to point of land that was
not covered with water, and believing
II was an island, had gotten out Of the
boat to talk to some fishermen. Woods
companion was standing at the edge
of the water when the bank suddenly
gave way, throwing him into water be-
yond his depth. He grabbed piece
of driftwood but 1t was not large
enough TO support him. The current
was strong at this point and carried
him 80 feet or more from the shore
When Scout Wood saw his companion
go down he plunged into the water and
SWAN to him. The drowning boy had
gone down the second time when the
scout reached him. After a hard strug-
gle In the water Wood managed to Sc
cure a grip around his companions
neck and swan to shore with him.
There Wood applied the Schaefer
method of resuscitation to TIE boy,
who was unconscious, and within about
fifteen minutes had his companion
able to stand. The National Court Of
Honor has issued a letter of COM
mendation to Scout Wood In reco9nL
ton Of his valor and skill.

raised seven of them. which the owner
either sold or butchered- He bred this

Underwood's words shows his opinion
Of the value Of good breeding:
The pigs from the second litter fed
out better and were heavier, were all
red and Of good heavy bone. and worth
at least 50 each more than the pigs
from the nrst litter from the grade
boar. The breeding fee was - for
the purebred-"
This farmer later sold three gifts
and seven small pigs, all sired by the
purebred Duroc, to a farmer at St
Stephen, s. c., for $3.50, which is six
times as much as he paid originally
for double the number Of hogs. In
other words, $25 worth Of scrub hogs
bred to a purebred boar resulted In
$3.50 return from merely a part Of
the herd.

Mrs. Penfield smiled. Eyes. that's
so, but there's something got to start
the happiness going inside 'em. Some
folks have got a factory Of their own,
and they make their happiness fast's
they can use 1t. and some folks have

an outlook to 1t, and he'll sing his

Lettie that encouragement"
I Mrs. Wopple rose. II must be goln'.
All got to say is, it's mercy you got

So far Lettie had merely changed
her allegiance and her boarding place;
the routine Of her days had not been
disturbed. The lust for loot was In
her blood; and now that she was well
treated and well fed. it had become a
sort of frenzy. She knew little about
putting gratitude into speech, having
always employed that medium for
vastly different purposes. The more
thankful Lettie felt, the higher grew
the heaps Of rubbish In Mrs. Penfield's
back yard.
As another savage collects his beads
and blankets, so this one collected the
superfuitles Of human living, the by
products of organization and reorgani-
xation, the drlftwood that eddied In
from the wrecking of many households.
Mrs Penfeld, tolerating the instinct Of
acqulsitiveness In Drink as a more or
less natural phase Of boyhood under
stress, was frankly dismayed over the
