was welcomed as beneficial.

Lydia Drain is now a patient in

Sweet potatoes digging got under

part of the crop is yet to be dug.
The yield seems to be good.

New Producing Managers.

WHILE the press agents in their
vigorous campaign to bring back
"the road" to the American theater
may have merely aroused the producing
managers from their lethargy, their ef-
forts have born other fruit.
Mark Barron of the Associated Press
in his news-gathering way, has dis
covered that the producers have a
brand new menace, which is not adding
to their joys. These are the actor
managers and the playwright-managers
new but very vigorous group, who, in
spite of economic diScouragements, y
have been willing to take up the burden
laid down by the old-timers and are
now reveling in the success.
"As tor-managerS," writes Mr.
Barron, Katharine Cornell and Ed
Wynn have been unusually successful
this season. Miss Cornell's THE Bar
retts of Wimpole Street has passed its
first year, while Wynn's Laugh Parade"
has been one of Broadway's most in
demand" shows for weeks. Mr.. Barron
adds: The playwrights have taken
Elmer Rice as their model in play:
wright-managing. Rice wrote, staged
and produced "The Left Bank" and
"Counsellor-at-Law," both Of which
have been dramatic leaders, and the
playwrights are planning their stam-
pede in group action with Phillip
Barry Edward Childs Carpenter and
Marc Connolly as leaders. Barry and
Carpenter" he states, ARE almost sure
fire hit WRITER'S while Connolly has COL
laborated with other writers in an i'm
posing string of successes"

Constance Collier

CHARLES FROHMAN brought Con-
~ stance Collier over TO play with
William Gillette in Samson" other
visits followed and Broadway became a
habit. She is now, and definitely,
Constance Collier of Piccadily and New
York-Constance Collier, who is as
completely of the theater as any man,
woman or child who ever became terror
stricken beneath a procenium arch or
paved at grease paint on dressing
room shelf.
She is recurrent, inevitable. Year
after year, season In and season out,
she's been before the playgoers in the
stalls of her native London. And on
those ocasions when she has absented
herself it wasn't because the Riviera
beckoned or because a holiday in
Switzerland had been suggested or rec
ommended. She doesn't, London learned
long ago, go in for vacations. When
she piles herself into one of those
cavernous taxis and directs her driver
to the boat-train, her objective is
Plymouth or Southampton. where she'll
take passage on an outbound liner to
do a job in New York. London has
grown accustomed to these goings and
comings
Shakespeare, Shaw, Pinero, Henry
Arthur Jones, Noel Coward-these have
been among her playwrights. Henry
Irving, Charles Hawtrey, Beerbohm Tree
and Americas William Gillette have
been among the actors with whom she

American play on an American theme
ever written by an American author.
The playwright, Royal Tyler, was a
suitor for the hand Of Abby Adams,
daughter of Americas second President,
John Adams, and sister OF America S
sixth President, John Quincy Adams.
The writing of the play was inspired by
his chagrin at the loss Of his sweetheart
to a rival whose veneer of foreign cul-
ture made him seem superior by con-
trast to the hero, until the latter S
manly character had chance to be
appreciated

Juvenile Delinquency.

TN making a study of juvenile delin-
quency for his latest film production,
Young America" it Is claimed, Frank
BorZage found that the Los Angeles
juvenile courts in two years had reduced
the number of juvenile cases coming
before them by IS per cent, despite a
large increase in population during that
period. His investigation showed that
this had come about chiefly through the
efforts of Judge George Blake in COM
batting the causes Of delinquency.
This new system which Is being
adopted by progressive courts through
out the country, it is explained, operates
by the formation Of juvenile boards in
each city, with one representative from
each of the or 10 organizations-the
Boys Scouts, the Y. M G. A., the schools,
the churches. etc.-meeting weekly with
the city probation officer. Figures on
delinquency are carefully studied, and
any increase in any particular district
is Investigated, with resulting action in
the form of additional Fairgrounds, new
Scout troops and other incentives to
useful activity instead of mischief.

suits in reclaiming misdirected young
