NATIONAI-"The Vortex"

Opening the regular season at the
National Theater, there will be pre-
sented tomorrow night. for the first
time in America, 1.-The Vortex" a
play by Noel Coward, one of the
youngest and cleverest of eotempo-
rary British dramatists. The piece
will be presented here exactly as it
was done in London, with Mr.. Coward
in the leading role and Lillian Braith-
waite, Molly Kerr and Mr.. Hollis play
ing the parts they originated in
London.
In this play Mr.. Coward displays
most graphically what one London
critic. was pleased to call IAN isolated
dustbin." That such "dustbins'' do
exist in London society-and also in
New York and Washington society
there Is no doubt. But Mr.. Coward
has not the slightest intention of pre-
tending to show a typical or even an
ordinarily common group of people.
The types he depicts are interesting
chiefly because of their abnormality.
They are rare specimens that work-a-
day people seldom or never meet, but
they do exist.
The first two acts are a bitter COM
mentary on this age of cocktails and
jazz. The characters move in a whirl
all the time the play gradually pro-
ceeds to a third act of unexpected
and powerful drama.
This act, with it's pathetic, poignant
scene between a neurotic, unhappy
boy and his vain and selfish mother,
of whose long continued intrigues
with young men he has just been
made fully aware, is declared to be
rare in its effectiveness and stark
realism.

Courtney Sisters.

a FEW years ago, before bridges and
subways brought Long Island and
Manhattan much closer together from
Terry, an own your own home"
thought was running brightly in the
minds of Fay and Florence Courtney
co-headliners at a local theater this
week.
Real estate promoters have an eighth
sense, sense of discovering any one
with even a slight hankering for a
home, and so in their tours the Misses
Courtney had come afoul of innumer-
able such agents. but their siren song
was sung in vain.
One Summer day during 'lay-off"
period they journeyed out to Long
Island, and there by themselves they
discovered the ideal spot for their
nome. The property was not a part
of development, but belonged to a
farmer, and so they bought acrea se
instead of buying lots. They built
n fine home and called it Courtney
Crest, and it has since become one of
the show spots, OF Long Island.
Then came the bridges and the sub
way and with them innumerable COM
muting aspirants. All who saw Court
ney Crest wanted home in the vicin-
ity. The Courtney Sisters talked it
over. They reserved a fine plot of
ground for themselves and divided the
rest of their plot up into lots. These
lots they sold at a handsome profit
and so what was once a farm is now
the village of Courtney.

California Has 1t Again,

'ALIFORNIA'S highly diversified
scenery has been used so often
and so effectively as a substitute for
scenery in other parts of the ,SvorId
In the making of photoplay drama
that 1t occasions little surprise to learn
that Director Edmund Goulding de-
clded that Lulu Vollmer's story of the
North Carolina mountains, Sup Up, F"
which comes to local screen today,
could be taken in California with sat
isfactory results.
Gouldfng sent to North Carolina for
set of Sx10 photographs of real
mountain scenery in that State With
these photographs before him, he des-
ignated to the scenery scouts of his
organization just what he wanted In
the way OF mountain vistas and in q
few days they reported that the rug
ged mountains in and about Tehachapi
Pass in the central portion of Cali
fornia would do.
Mr.. Goulding was a little dubious
about the possibility of live-oak vege-
tation drawing down the fire OF critics
upon him, but by a. judicious placing
OF his closeup groups and keeping
the scenery segregated in long shot
scenes, he avoided bringing ont def
nitely before the camera a detailed
study of the Tehachapi vegetation.
In so far as the physical culture of
the North Carolina mountains was
concerned. there was little trouble, for
1t was possible to build with fine veri-
similitude the mountain cabins and
surroundings that make characteristic
this romantic story of the Carolina
hill folk.

week of September IA, and in Balti-
more and Washington the following

Mr.. Cook has always been noted
for the novelty of each seasons roper
toire of stunts, but this year he ex-
poets to startle> even his stancheSt

RIALTO-"The Iron Horse .''

An event of more than usual inter
est to picture patrons will be the
showing of William Fox'S photoplay,
1.-The Iron Horse" at the Rialto this
week.
The story is a record of the wires
and rails which first linked the West
with the East. When President Lin
coin signed the Pacific railroad act on
July l, 1862. the bill included the pro.
vision that a telegraph system must
accompany the rails, thus connecting
the East and West by wire and rail.
1t was the first means of communica-
ton other than stage coach and pony
express.
George O'Brien, J. Farrell MacDon-
aid and Madge Bellamy have the lead
ing roles. and there is an enormous
supporting cast.
1t took three years to complete THE
Iron Horse" Members of the cast
and approximately 5000 extras lived
through the rigorous months on the
Nevada desert and in the Sierra range,
in tents and lean-to shacks. enduring
the same hardshipS so far as the ele
mentS were concerned, as those eXpe-
rienced by the pioneers they portray

Salt Lake City, under command of

appear in the picture were the origi-
nails of both railroads, having been
loaned especially for the purpose.
Owing to the length of this picture
the advertisements have been cur
tailed. However, Mischa Guterson, di-
recting the Rialto Orchestra, will offer
as musical introduction to THE Iron

duet between Mile. Annette Royak. So

Observation-Disclosures Leave"

Richard Barthelmess will be the star
at Crandall's Metropolitan Theater this
week in John S. Robertson's version
for First National of Hubert Osbornes
play. ''Shore Leave" originally pro-
duced by David Belasco as a starring
vehicle for Frances Starr and James
Rennie. The principal feminine role
will be placed by Dorothy Mackaill.
Added attractions will include the
Metropolitan World Survey, an Our
Gang" comedy. added short reels and
a musical program by the Metropoli-
tan Symphony, under Daniel Breeskin.
"Shore Leave" is a romantic drama
of the sea and shore in which the prin-
cipal figures are young COB and
simple little New England dressmaker
who falls in love with him. 1t devel-

5000, 900 pounds of whalebone, not to
mention quantities of whale ivory
and the occasional chunk of fragrant
ambergris, which sometimes sold for
more money than all the casks below
decks. In 1857, high-water mark Of
the trade, 329 whalers, representing
an investment of S12.000,000, were
registered from New Bedford. It is
still a prosperous and important town,
but the staccato Gathering Of spindles

With the slipping of the hawsers of
the John r. Manda its whole whaling

may enjoy good luck and speedy
return. If never heard from again she
may not, after all, be in Davy Jones

petual youth or middle age, and eternal
optimism, she may go on a-cruising

Wynn Injured in Army
Prior to World War
To the Editor OF The Star:


Walter Wynn, the ex-soldier for
on May Is at the Washington Audi
licity. In the course of this publicity
he has been classed as a World War
veteran instead of an ex-soldier of the
United States Army.
Prior to the World War Walter
Wynn enlisted in the United States
Army and was sent to the Philippine
Islands. While there he met with an
unfortunate accident when attending
to his duties. The 12-inch gun which
he was operating backfred and in
jured him. His injury incapacitated
him beyond immediate cure, thus rem
dering him ineligible for the World
War, though he received his injury
while serving his country in the Regu-
lar Army.
The definitions of "World War vet
eran" and 'ex-soldier" are at variance
technically, and, as such, is a delicate
one ut this time. 1t is well that the
public, which plans to help him, will
not be laboring under a misapprehen-
sion to know 1t. -
! /. on behalf of the Vincent B. Cos
tello Post, No. IS, American Legion,
herewith express my utmost sorrow
for having overlooked this difference,
and I sincerely trust that this mis-
nomer has not altered the sentiments
and humanitarian good will of the
reading public.
