S 16* Amusements Keith’s Honors Sousa. Beginning at yesterday's matinee every theater on the Keith vaudeville circuit laurched “John Phillip Sousa music week” in celebration of the twenty-fifch anniversary of his com- position of “The Stars and Stripes Forever.” and at_every performance during the current week that famous march will head the musical program which will include also “The Wash ington Post March,” “Semper Fidelis, “On_the Campus” “El Capitan” and Sousa’s new “Keith's Third of a Cen- tury March,” which he introduced last Sunday for the first time at his velcome home” concert at the New York Hippodrome. Heroic-size portraits of the march king, illuminated by spotlights and with the American flag fluttering above them, will be displayed on every Keith stage throughout the country this week while the orches- tra plays “The Stars and Stripes For- ever.” Upon the arrival of Sousa's band by special train at the Pennsylvania station Sunday the Pathe News| photographed the famous bandmaster and his men, and these views will be | projected throughout “Sousa music i week. Manager Robbins of Keith's haa| placed a great banner, suitably in-, Bcribed, across the proscenium arch. POLI'S—Margaret Anglin. Poli's Theater, which opened last night after-a brief spring cleaning and renovation brought about by the District's deter ation to make every theater in town 100 per cent safe for its patrons, is fortunate in being able to take its new lease on life by presenting Miss Margaret : Anglin_and her company_ playing “The Woman of Bronze It is not every week that Washington has the opportunity of entertaining an artist; of Miss Anglin's caliber, and when she appears in a show which provides such an excellent vehicle for the ex- on of a rare talent the oppor- becomes twofold in its ofler-, | ing.

W ~ at is that phrase of introduc- tion that always goes about here? ©h, yes—"Miss Anglin is fortunate in having such an able group of sup- porters in a cast unique for its happy ‘composition,” or something like that. IVell, she It is a well chosen and | well balanced cast. Harry Minturn, as Leonard Hunt the erring husband; Mary Fowler, a Bylvia Morton, the “other woman, Who forms the apex of the well known eternal triangle, and Max Montesole, who takes the part of the turned-down lover and general friend-in-need, are able and convinc- ing in their several roles, each of which calls for extremely emotional ! acting, of the sort too easily spoiled | by overdoing it. - Of the story, or plot, little need be ‘Zaid here, for there is nothing ex- traordinary about it, nothing really commendable, as a matter of fact, for it simply gives a new twist to a situation that has done its share of ‘hard work in this life and might well be laid off for a rest now and then. Briefly, it deals w a renowned wculptor, who owes his genius of in- spiration to a faithful and loving wife, now approaching middle age. Leonard Hunt. the sculptor, loses a half-hearted fight and succumbs to the charms of a pretty little poor relation. He leaves his wife and his work and, of course, comes back in the end to both. But, regardless of the merit of the plot itself, the show provides an ex- cellent medium for the talents of Miss Anglin, who is the whole show herself. And, taking it by and all, it is one of the most pleasing ex- amples of acting well done seen in these parts for some time. ‘he Woman of Bronze' bert attraction, written Kester. B. .F.

She responded to encores until she pleaded her prepared reper- tory was exhausted.

In general, the bifl tempts the re- viewer to pronounce it Dance week,” for that sameness of appeal of each number is the only marring feature of the bill. Para- doxically, the bill opens with a dis- tinct variatioa, in which Samaroft and Sonia present their excellently train- ed dogs under the title of “A Bit of Old Russia,” the title being justified, at least, by the picturesque costumes of partners. Handers and Mills are an eccentric pair of comedians who start the laughter of the evening. Marjorie Thoms won applause with eral dances which combine grace suggestion of gymnastics, in 1 she is assisted by Roy Sheldon and Fred Rabb. Maude Powers and Vernon Wallace give a touch of va riety to the bill in_their comedy ketch, orgia on Broadway " An elaberate stage retting, repro- ducing a night scene on a Broadway corner, with the moving electric signs and lighted elevated trains in the background, is only one feature of the offering of Ray Hall, Edith Ermine and Louise Brice, three tal ented vaudeville artists. 1t is no de traction from Mr. Hall's droll singing and danciig to say that many in the; audience will remember longest hi: s stunt of holding a lighted cigarette jin bis mouth as he sings and talks.

COSMOS—“Dixieland to Broad- way.” Entertainjng vaudeville is present- ed at the Cosmos Theater this week, ymany of the acts being so.near the quality of the headliners as to make the bill exceptional. Bobby Heath, with Adelé Sperling, a charming voung singer, who sends Bobby's songs over the footlichts with “all the “pen” possible, and e “company” that sings at least two of 'his songs like a veteran, Broadway, presented by Arthur Alexander and company, is both a novelty and a urprise. It opens in Dixle, with a befo' de wa scene and singing, and then gets to Broadway, In a jazz parlor, with the pickaninnies grown A big fea. ture of this act is Arthur Alexander himself, and he wears some .gorgeous stage costumes. Another good vaudeville playlet, “Phy$ic Jim,” is presented by James Bradbury and company. Its ldea is not original, but it is played well and goes over with a rush. Dobbs, Clark and Dare, in “Vaudeville Rem- nants,” also shine in original fun- making, followed by daring acro- batic feats. Pickard's seals open the show with an entertainment as good as any act of its kind that has been scen here, and Wyatt and Wynne con- tribute “youth, personality and pep to_a pleasing galaxy of songs. The big first run photoplay, shown only at the matinees, pictures Marie Prevost, the charming little film star, in an interesting bit of patchwork which has a unique climax, “Don’t " Louise Fazenda, in " provides the the International HIGHEST .

Popular Abe Reynolds is at the Gayety Theater this week with a ishow that embodies material that iblends a little old material with some Ivery new, and enjoyable in its en- tirety. Max Spiegel, whose name once raced many a successful production jon the burlesque circuit. but is now a rarity, is responsible for the show, and preftier settings and costume ef- | facts have seldom been seen at this theater. Abe Reynolds is funnier than ] ever, if that is possible, resuming his bloom. His hunior is clean and for the most part original. He has aban- doned the smooth-shaven make-up of last year and returned to the hirsute adornment. He is supported by a ca- pable company, including *Dimpl Dolly Morrissey, Flossie Everette, Florence De Vere, Fred Hackett, Ben Holmes, Billy Rice and Lloyd Ped- drick. Dolly Morrissey is clever and re- ceived a big _hand for her specialty n the second act. Flossie Everette, soubrette, is a good entertainer and an accomplished dancer, and Florence De Vere is both -pretty and clever and could easily handle more work than is allotted to her on the program. The Five Royal Hussaras, a team of wom- an musicians, contributes one of the best musical offerings in many a day. The chorus adds in no small manner to the success of the show, and the scenery, especially in the last num- ber, would do credit to the high-class musical revue: Manager Jarboe 1 should have no trouble in filling his popular playhouse this week with |Pleased audlences. —_— “MT. LINCOLN” URGED. G. A. R. Mentbers Would Change Name of Mount Rainier. Agitation for the changing of the name of Mount Rainier, Washington, to Mountain Lincoln, is being reopened by the Grand Army of the Republic, under the leadership of James H. Chase of Cashmere. Wash., a _ninety-three-year- old veteran of the civil war. The proposal to substitute the name “Mount Lincoln” for the present name was placed before the geographic board here last year, but that body returned an adverse report on the matter. Mr. Caase, in a statement, sets forth that Mount Rainier is “an unfortunate un-American name, given by no right of discovery, ownership or other good rea- son.” s, but ALL Chestnut s safe for children it is is possible, then takes jyear 1919, which has just been made MUTT AND JEFF—Mutt Decides Not to Break the Training Rules. .

Contrary to popular opinion. the largest percentage of returns according to population was not from the wealthy industria; centers, but from Alaska and the District of Columbia. The terri- torry’s showing—17.17 per cent—was| explained by the number of individuals operating their own business, while that of the District of Columbia—13.46 per cent—was believed to have resulted from the high ratio of government em- ployes with salaries of more than $1,000 a year. ‘The southern agricultural states In- variably were far down the list, Mis. sjssippi citizens making returns com- prising only 1.33 per cent of the total population, North Carolina 1.45 per cent and Alabama 1.74. New York led in total returns with more than 5,000,000. An analysis made by the Treasury of the sources of income showed that hose in the $1,000-$2,000 class obtained per cent of their personal revenue from wages and salaries, 3.8 per cent from rents and rovalties, 1.4 per cent from dividends and 4.7 from interest on investments. 3 This was contrasted with the tax- payer with an income of one million dollars, who drew only 1.34 per cent from salaries, 23 per cent from part- nerships, 11 per cent from sale of real estate, stocks, etc.; 6 per cent trom rents and royalties, 38 per cent from dividends and 11 per cent from interest on investments. Deduction permitted by the gov- ernment also showed a wide variance, amounting to 7.47 per cent for in- comes between $1,000 and $2,000 and 20.43 per cent for incomes of $2,000, 000 and over.

Urges Divorcement of Banks From Furnishing Funds. Divorcement of banks from financing railroads and,. direct financing of the roads by the United States government was suggested in a plan outined by Gen. Jacob S. Coxey last night at the meeting of Central Labor Union, which he declared would put the country in a fast-moving industrial condition within thirty days. i His plan rests upon the retirement of | the $10,000,000,000 funded debt of railroads as the various items mature, and the issuance by the railroads of non-interest-bearing bonds to the United States government in exchange for cu rency. Relief from the interest burden, he said, would enable the roads to make ready for a blg expansion program in the purchase of new cars and locomo- tives, which would give the manufactur- ers of such articles enough work to run all plants at capacity. The opening of this industry, he pointed out, would in turn open the lumber Industry for ties Bedroom Suites 'This week is Bedroom Week here—in which we are featuring the most interesting values that we have in stock—at special prices.
