ABLE TO START

"Abies Irish Rose" starts its sixth
week at the Capitol Sunday night.
1t seems paradoxical for an actress
who is playing a Jewish comedy
character to keep herself keyed up!
by reading nothing but serious liter.I
allure.
Yet that's the system which Belief
Pogany, the clever Mrs. IsaacI
Cohen" of "Abie's Irish Rose at |
the Capitol Theater, has adopted.
There are two reasons why I de-
vote my spare time to reading theI
classics" asserts Miss Pogany. "One
is because love the highest form oil
literature, either in plays or in books,
and the other is that it prevents the
hilarious comedy of 'Abie's Irish
Rose from becoming stale. We who'd
have played in Able just naturally
have to take an antidote, or before
long we'd be suffering from comedy
indigestion or comedy revulsion.
You'll find that nearly all play
ers follow somewhat similar sys-
tenn. Those who are playing heavy
parts go in for light recreation,
while those who are cast for comedy
characters look to the more solid
things for diversion off the stage
Having nothing but drama both on
and off stage, or being in a contin.
uous comedy atmosphere, would be-
come unbearable, and would have a.
particularly bad effect on ones stage
work"
Miss fPogany's success in her role
of the mamma" who is always talk
ing about her operation" must not (
be taken as an indication that her
talents are confined to comedy char
acters. She has played in classic
dramas, and is as familiar with
Lady Macbeth" as she is with Mrs.

up like his tail at Bobby's feet.
Bobby turned scarlet, he was
so embarrassed. whispered to
him and said:

Bobby reached for his hat, got
up, walked down the aisle, out

There was much :wittering and
laughing among the young peo-
pie in the back Of the church,

to keep his air Of solemn dignity.

important that you should have at
least general idea Of these stric-
lures and their meaning.
In the first place remember
that a gland, any gland, il q struc-
ture that acts as 4 sort Of strainer
to separte or secrete from the blood
or juices Of the body, something
that is called q secretion.
Your skin glands s&rete sweat,
your kidneys secrete urine, your
saIlvary glads secrete saliva and
so on through q long list. In all
these instances. the secretion which
is peculiar to the gland and derives
something from the gland Itself,
is discharged externally and the
glands ara called glands of exter-
nal secretoin.'
There are however, certain other
glands whose secretions are not
discharged externally but are alb
sorbed back into the blood.
These are called the glands
OF internal secretion" or 'endo-
crime glands" which means the
same thing.
The secretions thus formed by
these glands and thus thrown by
them back into the blood, con-
tain substances that did not pre-
viously exist in the blood.
These substances are, there
fore, formed in these glands
themselves.
Each endocrine gland has its
own peculiar substance or secre-
ton by which 1t discharges its
own peculiar duty.
The endocrine glands are To-
Gated in various parts Of your
body.
There is one, called the thyroid,
that lies like . pair Of saddle
bags across your windpipe, for
this reason usually refer to
them as glands" There are a
