ID. A. II. HONORS MRS
BEACH AT MUSICALE-TEA

Drawing aside large screen
which entirely hid from the view of
London Chapter Daughters of the
American Revolution, the lovely an
tique table at which the regent us
ually presdes over the chapter, aft
er short business session Wednes-
day, a tea table of lovely and gilt
tering appointments met the gaze
of the chapter members.
Perhaps there was but one of the
gathering who was surprised, and
that one was Mrs. Lucy Beach, the
chapters second oldest member, in
whose honor this tea party was
planned.
1t is customary for reports from
the state conference to be given at
the April meeting and since there
was no delegate from London in at
tendance at Akron this year, the
business of the afternoon was hast
lily despatched to make way for the
musicale which was provided at the
bchest of the hostess committee by
three of the chapters artists, Miss
Florence Mclaughlin at the piano
Miss Margaret Chance, violinist,
and Miss Irma Pringle, soprano, to
enhance the pleasure Of this occa-
sion, which was a tribute to Mrs.
Beach in celebration of her eighty
ninth birthday, which occurred
week hence.
The assembly room Of the club
house had for decorations baskets
and bowls of spring flowers and
the tea table was laid with hand
some cloth of filet lace. In the
center was a quaint china cake
stand which bore the birthday cake
with it's decorations Of flowers and
fern leaves and its many lighted
candles in holders Of the spring
colors of yellow, purple and green.
To light the table at either end
were antique crystal candelabra
ornamented with prisms of the
crystal From this charming table
tea was dispensed by Mrs. Mary
Beach Bidwell, Mrs. j. A. Smith
and Mrs. r. H. Robson.
The musical numbers presented
were: "Impromptu Capriccioso" and
Londonderry Air" by Mrs. Nc
Laughlin; "Traumerei" and BE
lievc Me If All Those Endearing
Young Charms" Miss Chance;
"Sunshine and Butterflies" and "ris
Spring" by Miss Pringle.
Despite her great surprise, Mrs.
Beach arose and with complete COM
posure, in her inimitable calm and
delightful manner, expressed to the

rewarded with gift Of twenty

this unique and delightful affair,

ADVERTISING PAYS

Bismark, N. d. = There was
and still is a one-legged man
in North Dakota. There's an
other in Ohio.
The Ohioan, Otto Wilberger,
of Maumee, having no left leg
naturally has an accumulation
of shoes FOR the left foot. The
North Dakotan, F. V. Earring
ton, of Raleigh, being without
right leg, had lots of right
foot shoes, Having read about
Wilbarger, in the local news
paper, Harrington got into cor
respondence with him and now
both have the correct kind Of
footwear for years to come.
In commenting Mr.. Earring
ton suggested that the value Of
advertising is very high.

Mr.. O'Neill's new play. "Ah, Wilder
ness!" in the imprinted words of a
New York theater scribe, might have
been written by Owen Davis" It is
certainly so unlike its author, that If
you were there without a program, and
without the slightest knowledge of who
wrote 1t or why. the last name that
would crop out at you would be O'Neill.
Yet 1t is more of pleasant surprise
than otherwise. and singularly attractive
theater fare. 1t does net make middle
aged men grow bald. or hustle old men
into their graves. in the fashion of
O'Neill's earlier works. There Is moth
ing III it that needs to be untangled
backstairs. 1t is the slight. fragile story
Of boy who had his troubles growing
up-a boy who ate large slices of Ibsen
and couldn't digest them properly. It
is the partly photographed happen
ingS in the early whisker days of a
youth who is bent on getting himself
all mixed up with emotions which are
too large for him and which toss him
around in most uncomfortable fashion.
1t is the story, it is said. not only of a
few minutes in Mr.. ONeills own life.
but also in the life of one of his con-
temporaries, George Jean Nathan, who
1t seems underwent similar experiences.
At the end of the play you are in
sympathy with its dCings, and most
grateful to Mr.. ONeill for having
cheered up. While you cannot possibly
call him clown, or a playwright who
is able to roll you about in the aisles,
you have learned some wisdom, sewed
up in more than Serviceable ONeill
words, and you have become acquainted
with most of the authors personal
growing pains.
1t is Mr.. Cohan, however, to whom
the author owes an enormous debt. His
playing OF Nat Miller, member of the
Fourth Estate" is the quietest, most
eloquent bit of acting he has probably
ever done in his life. We cannot refrain
from taking off our hat, as the rest of
the world is doing, to Mr.. Cohan, and
i telling him that both producer John
KrimSky and ourselves were thoroughly
| delighted with his distinguished goings-
on.
Many things will be said of course,
about the new O'Neil "humor" 1t is
! not Coward humor, nor is it the satir-
ical brand that Washington saw last
week in Her Man of Wax 1t flows
freely and yet it would not bowl over a
| cricket. 1t comes when you least ex-
pect it-tucked in between the genial
sermons that Mr.. Cohan has at his
| disposal. Yet it is never ridiculously
nonsensical, or the least bit tawdry
Only occasionally you wonder-you
wonder why. for instance-an audience
should laugh its head off at such q
phrase as: Il never could see any
| thing to sweetbreads. They always
| tasted like soap to me-"

ROOSEVELT FELICITATES
SUNDAY EVENING CLUB
Founder Celebrates His 69th Birth
day Anniversary by Presiding
at Chicago Meeting.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, October g. Greetings
from President Roosevelt were read be-
fore the Chicago Sunday Evening Club
last night by Clifford w. Barnes, who
founded it in 1908 and who celebrated
his 69th birthday anniversary by pre-
siding at the meeting
The broad and wholesome religious
faith which statemen and ministers OF
all denominations have expressed at
the meetings Of the club, through all
these years, is one Of the chief factors
which make possible an unself1sh move
ment like the N. r. A., and which gives
us reason to hope that a better day
for our country is near at hand" the
Presidents message said.
Evening star., 1933-10-09

just that. 1t is the mournful tale Of
mournful family, acted with erstwhile
ONeill bitterness by Mary Morris, and
telling of the miserable selfshness of a
nasty old woman who lived on Fifth
avenue and had a cute little trick of
locking up her relations in a deep and
dank vault. While it leads up to giant
climax which doesn't happen, disap-
pointing those who had expected to see
people tearing each other limb from
limb, it is neat little melodrama, writ
ten with enough skill to keep you con-
tinually at the edge Of your chair
We were disappointed in Hold Your
Horses"

"GIRlS IN BLUE" Is
ATTRACTION AT GAYETY

Good Burlesque Show With the
Popular Ann Corio as Fea-
tured Player.
Making her initial appearance at the
Gayety this season, Ann Corio and her
Girls in Blue" are presented for the
ensuing week.
Miss Corio, although not displaying
anything in the way Of dance routine.
nevertheless IS a success, which. after
all, is only repeating what was said
about her last year. 1t Is not necessary
for Ann to do much. Her appearance
Is enough to satisfy the front row
in fact, the entire house. Her num-
bers are sung in the typical Corio style,
slowly and with good effect. Ann
Corio Is one of the headliners in bur-
lesque.
Others prominent in the cast were
Boots Rush, Bee Baxter and Allne Dale,
a trio that can both sing and dance
their way into the audiences approval.
Hap Freyer, who has carried most OF
the comedy the past few weeks. has
some help this time from Charlie
Goldie and Frank Smith, the latter
'tangle- talk" comedian. Danny Jacobs
again Is on hand to do nice job with
the straight work. The comedy for
the past few weeks has been outshone
by the feminine half Of the program
and this again IS true Of this weeks
show, although in the latter half OF
the performance the comics pick up in
their work and the dialogue Is better.
Nora Murray and Milt Bronson sing
ing in the ballets and Lucky Darling
doing some splendid toe dancing are
high spots in this portion Of the pro-
gram Charley LaVine does impersona-
tions Of radio stars exceptionally well
and deserves the applause that he re-
ceives The chorus and the settings
are again worthy of attention and COM
ment, as they are improving all the
time under the tutelage of Paul Kane.
