Prayers are in essence the begging of favors

The classical prayer consists of the ascription

Thanksgiving, to show that you appreciate

he wired of his willingness to donate
his services to the furtherance of the
production. Mr.. Belasco with Otto H.
Kahn and Joseph NJ Schenck have
constituted the triumvirate that has
been most enthusiastic over the visit of
the Freiburg Players to New York.
The Passion players are dominated
by the Fassnacht family. For over 1870
years the principal roles in the play
have been handed down from father
to son, from mother to daughter.
Adolph and Georg Fassnacht have be-
come famous throughout Europe for
their interpretations of the roles of
Christ and of Judas. Other members
of the family assume the roles of Mary,
of Mary Magdalene and of John. From
childhood they have been trained for
the parts they were ultimately to as
sumo This process of preparation has
been undergone by each member of the
Fassnacht family during every genera
ton since 1850.

That is exactly what happened as a
result of the World War. Shortly after
the conflict colored shows began to ap-
pear on Broadway. The first of these
brought Florence Mills, Gertrude Saun-
ders, Miller and Lyles, Sissel and Blake,
and a host of other fine artists to light.
But the public said that the colored re-
vue in which they appeared Shuttle

Negro show could be quite as replete
with talent.
Then came Sam H. Grisman's How

first introduced to the American pub =
Others followed-"Runnin' Wild" -
H." "Struttin' Time" "Africana, Keep

dramatic efforts of the Negro, commenc-
ing with the noted Emperor JONES'" in
which Charles Gilpin settled once and
fer all the argument that the colored
man was not Electrically gifted.
What has happened in the past "a

tainment in such high graces with

to be night-club dancing and singing in
