Vampine.

THE modern vampire Is a refined,
charming, enticing woman, con-
tends Diego Angel. Italian author,
who Is aiding in research details for
the production Ben Hur."
She is an artist to her finger tins.
Though the art of vamping 1000
years ago was highly developed, some
of the methods were decidedly siren
uous and cruel. Also, in the olden
days, women used all sorts of arti-
fetal beautif1ers-high- -heeled shoes
false hair, dyed hair, rouge, pearl
powder and black pencil for the eye
lashes and lids. They even use kohl
around their eyes, a black substance
which made their orbs appear doublv
large; and tinted their finger and toe
nails with henna, an artifice that has
apparently eluded the modern vamp.
The question OF the vamp arose
when Carmel Myers was about to
begin her first scene as Iras, the
daughter of a refined and wealthy
desert sheik.
"lras knew her art we'll" contended
the author. "She generally had a
oozen or more men in love with her
all the time. And in that time, almost
1000 years ago, vamping was a
highly developed art, though often
unscrupulous and cruel"

the studio at Athens.
Her next part was Juliet. Upon
this impersonation Julia Arthur could
safely rest her fame.
But Emile Bergerat's play, More
, Than Queen" proved to be her piece
de resistance. The story of Josephine
was replete with dramatic situations
and afforded Miss Arthur opportuni-
ties which proved the crowning
| achievement of her career. 1t was
after this that she retired from the
stage, seemingly with all the glory
one might wish for or achieve. But
again the call came for her and her
genius was again manifested in The
Eternal Magdalen, with the all-star
cast of out There" and Hamlet"
Now it is said Julia Arthur is Civ

Bernard Shaw Vagaries.

81 NEVER read any books-at least.
hardly any says George Bernard
Shaw
Very few books of any nationality
are worth reading. People read to
kill time, consequently it Is no more
objection to a book that 1t is not
worth reading than it is to a pack OF
cards that 1t does not pile up treas
ures in Heaven"
He confesses that he is obviously
and ridiculously out of date; that
he has never heard of Villa Gather;
he thinks James Branch Cabell to be
a Senator and Sinclair Lewis "a nice
chap" OF Edith Wharton he seems
to have heard the name, but cannot
connect 1t with anything" His mind
is a perfect blank" about Sherwood
Anderson, and he regards II. l..
Mencken as IAN amusing dog and
a valuable critic" He describes
Eugene O'Neill as still only Fantee
| Shakespeare, peopling his isle with
Calibans," and he has never read a
word of Hergesheimer.
In reply to question, why don't
you visit the United States?" Mr..
Shaw replied in comic despair, us
not Europe enough for one man?"

the New York theater can hardly be
challenged, because 'Heartbreak

Something About Luella
Gear.

UELLA GEAR, who appears in
Washington this week, has had a
theatrical experience which resem-
bies almost the number of varieties
Of famous brand of pickles.
MISS Gear was born in New York
city, was graduated by the Stuyve-
SAINT High School and was sent to
fnlshing school at Vassar, where she
was captain Of the senior basket ball
team.
Her next venture was at Sargent's
Dramatic School. She made her
debut in play called Love Of Mike"
ana made hit as the baby vamp.
Next she was engaged for a play
with David Belasco, in which she ap-
peared for two years in New York
and the provinces. Next she played
with George Marshall in Washing
ton IN both musical and dramatic
ENDS or the business. Her first real
New york smack was with Elsie,
In which she appeared for one sea-
son.
The big event in her career to date
was her work in Poppy" for one
year with w. c. Fields and Madge
Kennedy. This season she went to
London to appear in Poppy" and
was the only American member of
the cast
The London Illustrated News says
In review of the play: "Miss Gear
possesses charm, beauty and ability,
ana was the one outstanding hit of
Poppy which opened last night. We
nope she won't make herself a
stranger to these shores"

"Pajama King and wants to lose that

In his greatest farces John has in
variably had one or more scenes in
which the pajamas figured strongly. He
has finally rebelled.
THE Lounge Lizard" was originally
known in London as "Collusion.' For
presentation in this country II was
deemed necessary that several changes
be made. and the names of several we'll
known adapters were suggested to Jules
Hurtig for the job, but Cumberland
feared that il some outside author were
called in that the pajamas would figure
in it. offered to do the job himself
He was given the script. and immedi-
ately went to work on the adaptation.
He has been compimented by play
doctors like Otto Harbach, Max MARGIN
and others on his excellent work. and
it is said to be not at all unlikely that
the next play in which the rotund
comedian appears will be from his own
pen.

New Ideas In Chorus.

THEODORE ]. HAMMERSTEIN, one
of the producers of When Sum-
mer Comes" has ideas that are said
to be entirely different from the
Iiegfeld, George White or Earl Car
roll system.
Mr.. Hammerstein has decided that
instead of "glorifying the American
girl" he will "vitalize" her, and in
picking the girls for his new show
he decided to get ability besides
looks. Among the 20 selected by him
he has four speciality dancers, four
toe dancers. three solo dancers and
four who are said to make a fine
female quartet. Mr.. Hammerstein
practically has had the field to him
self, it is claimed. as Broadway is
crowded with classy clever girls right
now. due to the closing recently of
four big musical comedies on tour.
The dances of when Summer
Comes have been arranged by Ray
mond Midgely, newcomer to the
eastern theatergoers. For three
years he was head of the Chicago
Dancing Academy, which has turned
out some of the country's greatest
dancers.
