Robert Bell, the gifted director

long been working on a play dealing
with the life of Jeanne dare, which

Modern Slant Given to Shakespeare

thing Of joyous humor and biting
satire. It is whispered that the
Shuberts, to whom the manuscript
had been read, had offered her a
good round sum If she would give
up this presentation for charity
and let them have the absolute
rights to the travesty.
This offer was refused, Mrs.

play was given for the benefit OF
the Juvenile Protective Association

thropy a good round sum.
The Shuberts have also been
showing considerable interest in the
operetta for which Miss Fred Dem

music. AS I remember it Is a
variation Of the familiar Cinderella
