q stanch rival Of purely commercial
shows on Broadway. has moved into
a new field for conquest.
The old Fourteenth Street Theater,

tory Theater, Inc, headed by Eva lie
Gallienne, the actress. Dramas by
Shakespeare, IbSen, Maeterlinck and
Tchekov will be presented on the
boards where Observation-Disclosures thrill
ers have held their sway for years.
Another step in the march of higher
drama was taken this week with the
rallying Of five of the art Theater"
groups to the support of the hide
pendent Theater clearing house. which
has as it's aim the creating Of
wider community sentiment for the
support of the Little Art Theaters of
of America
Broadway's theaters, simmering in
the Summer doldrumS, are slowly be-
ginning to stir in preparation for the
official opening Of the new season
later this month. Two new shows
were launched this week. mo More
Women" a Western comedy farce
with Cody, Wyo., as it's locale. opened
Tuesday at the Ambassador Theater
and Mic Max" a musical show OF

cial enthusiasm.

America Has More Than England.
$3.50, 900 One in Museum.

LONDON, August z CP.-Although
there are a great number Of good car
pets in England, there are not many
Of great value, and in this latter re-
spect America is far better off than
England, says Cecil Tottershall, an
expert of the Victoria and Albert
Museum.
MIR. Tottershall asserts few people
understand the value Of an old carpet,
and the person who was reported to
have spurned Persian carpet 100
years old did no more than the ma
jority Of people in England would have
done. He added that there is a for
tune in carpets for people who know
how and when to buy. and there must
be hidden away in old houses many
carpets and rugs Of great value The
most famous carpet in the world is the
Ara adil. now in the museum 1t meas
ures l7X34 feet and is valued at more
than $350.000.

Miss Brown was giving a diving
exhibition at Highlands, n. j., and
Mrs. Ederle saw her and begged her
to take Gertrude in hand and develop
her natural swimming powers. Miss
Brown brought her into the associa-

in the water attracted the attention
of Mr.. Handley.
"He took her in hand when she was
a novice and taught her the Amer
lean crawl-'eight B'-the same stroke
she used yesterday. The eight Is
means eight kicks to two overland

ANCIENTS USED SALADS
SIMILAR TO OUR OWN
Tomato Is Single Modern 1ngredi-
ent. British Scientists Find
in Study.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, August 7.--British food
experts who have been making q spe-
Cial study OF the history OF salads say
the tomato is the single new ingredi-
ent modern times have contributed to
salad making.
The pharaohs-even the beautiful
Cleopatra-ate onions in large quanti-
ties in their salads and used garlic
and other high scented ingredients.
Confucius ate cucumbers, and the
ancient Chinese used mustard, water
cress and nasturtium leaves and
flowers in mixing their elaborate sal
ads. which often contained hard boil
ed eggs.
Ancient Persia was also very fond
of salad making. Sour wine, not un-
like modern vinegar, was used on
lettuce by the Persians 1000 years
ago.
