ART INSTITUTE DRAMA
SCHOOL TO OPEN JAN. /
Temporary Theatre VIII Be Opened
in Museum For Stevens to
Begin Classes

The activities Of the Art Institute
have now been extended to include a
school of acting. The arrival in the
city Of Thomas Wood Stevens, direc-
tor Of the Institutes new theatre, and
the unfolding Of his plans to the Pub
lie School Art Society the other morn
ing, reveal the scope Of the Institute s
new venture, made possible by gifts
Of William o. Goodman.
A school Of acting under the roof
Of the Art Institute will mean not only
a chance for young persons with theat-
rical ambitions to receive intensive
training leading to bachelors degree,
but will also considerably enliven the
artistic atmosphere Of the whole stu
dent body. AT the same time the lay
members of the Art institute are to
have the opportunity of attending the
performances which A6r. Stevens as
serts, as a result of his ten years of
experience with the school Of dramat-
les at Carnegie Institute at Pittsburgh,
may sometimes be superior to those Of
the commercial theatre. At any rate,
the schools performances without
catering to stars and without butcher
ing" the playwright's manuscripts will
have certain redeeming features OF
their own. The school will resemble
the repertory theatres Of Europe.
Theatre Under Construction
The plays of the new school of act
ing will eventually Be presented in the
new theatre given by William o.
Goodman in memory Of his son, Ken
meth Sawyer Goodman, a talented
young playwright, who lost his life in
the war. Kenneth Goodman was a
student and friend of Thomas Wood
Stevens when, some years ago, Mr..
Stevens produced the famous pageant
OF the renaissance, a landmark in the
history Of the school Of the Art Instr
tute. The Goodman Theatre is now
being constructed the other side Of the
Illinois Central tracks near Monroe
street and pending its completion Mr..
Stevens will have an improvised thea
ter in one Of the large exhibition gall
leries on the first floor Of the Art
Institute.
His classes begin January !, and i
Is planned to open the work not only
to beginners but also to offer reseach
ieilOwships for experienced young &C
tors who are humble enough to be-
Come students.
The addition Of the school Of drama
to the art school gives an opportunity
ior that much-to-be-desired interplay

Business Conditions

The local banks and banking estab-
lishments report that there was con-
siderable increase in the volume Of
borrowing for commercial purposes
Business activity showed signs Of in
crease. Due to the approaching Holt
day trade there has been an evidence
of expansion in industrial operations.
Employment has increased. Market
reports show that canned goods Of all
kinds, dried beans, buckwheat and
pancake -four, mincemeat, dried fruits
and sugar, syrups, show a marked
trend upward in price, and also that
these food products are "best sellers"
Building conditions show slight inn
provement. Notwithstanding the fact
that there are a number Of pieces OF
real estate for rent, the housing condi-
ton does not improve, this due, per
haps, to the fact that monthly rentals
continue at not exorbitant, but pro
hibitive rates. Hair dressers continue
to do good business among US, and
there is notable increase in the num-
Der of small grocery and produce
stores along the "grey" way (South
Street). There are one or two new
up-to-date fruit establishments oper-
ated by members Of our group. Judg-
ing from the large number Of agents
and canvassers, there is money in SELL

Next in point Of view Of rarity at
the Arts Club are FIVE canvases BY
Theodore Robinson Zone Of which is
lent for the occasion by Mrs. Harry
Payne Whitney,. Robinson, the first
American impressionist, is easily seen
here as the forerunner of Childe Haus-
sam. and exponent of the French dash
and dot method. Robinson was not a
prolific painter, SO his work is seldom
seen in public exhibitions.
AS for the modernists there is among
other pictures more or less familiar
Bellows stunning Fisherman" one
of his very best canvases. But I was
interested most in a group of water
colors by men whose names are I'M
known here, such as Charles Burch-
field, who has seized most effectively

Edward Hopper.

in accord with the rigor Of their
themes.
