Suggests Children's Thenter. Rabbi Abram Simon gave review of the life of Miss Russell and sug- gested, in view of her labor in behalf of children, that a_theater, to be called ‘the Lillian Russell Theater, ! should be established for children.

A special meeting of the Takoma Park Citizens' Association has been called for tonight at 8 o'clocic in the Takoma Park Library, corner 5th and Cedar streets, for the purpose of pro- testing against the proposed change in the trolley service on Kennedy street, sbetween 14th street and T: {koma Park, Md., by an order of the Public Utilities Commission of the District of Columbia to discontinue the through service of the Capital Traction cars to the navy yard and | substitute a shuttle service between 14th and Kennedy streets to Takoma Park. The commission has informed resi- jdents of Takoma Park that the pro- | posed change is being made for the | purpose of determining, through ex- | iperience, the relative value of the two methods of operation. The resi- dents of the suburb do not feel that | ny further cxperiments are needed, | they waged a ficht for several | vears against the Washington Rall- | and Electric Company (then ! !known as the Brightwood Rallway { Company) for the elimination of the huttle service on Butternut street i from Walter Reed Hospital to the ! terminus of the line at 4th and Cedar The citizens ! finally won out and the through serv- [ice to the city established.

It needs the liberal employment of the blue pencil. It is full of amusing complications, but there are numerous lines that could be modified or entirely eliminated. The theme of the play is the old one utilized in that venerable glny. “A Scrap of Paper.” which is wholly in- occuous” and has entertained thou sands—the pursuit of an article which is constantly disappearing and as fre- quently turning up in unexpected places. In the play being produced here this week It is a gartor. In “Up in Mabel's Room” it was another ar- ticle of woman’s underwear. “Getting Gertie's Garter” was played a couple of years ago under the title “Come Up ‘in the Haymow.” Under the new name it has all the objectionable qualitles it had under the old. It has all the offensive elements that were denounced in “Ladies’ Night” and “The Deml! Virgin.” If it s the rep- resentative of the best of American farce the stage has sunk to a low level. Double meaning and innuendo run through many of the lines—lines which ordinarily are described by a short and ugly word. The action is fast and the roles are quisitions to their number. Pierre Gendron, formerly of the Gar- rick Players, is one. Earl Foxe play- ed the role of a comlic butler and ob- tained many laughs. Some of his work reminded one of Charley Chap- lin at his worst. He certainly had a busy night and the press 3 sertion that he had to h dress shirt for every could readily be belleved. He and Henry Duffy contributed most to the fun of the performance. Wanda Lyon as Pattle Walrick displayed marked ability as a comedienne and was al- ways attractive, even with a sooty face and disordered hair and garbed in a horse blanket. The audience was liberal in its applause. “Bought and Paid For.” With its domestic infelicities, George Broadhurst's “Bought and Pald For" 1s not a pleasing drama, and tests the real histrionic abilitles of any cast. To make it leave a “good taste” re quires more than ordinary acting. large audience showed its apprecia tion of the Garrick Plavers in this respect last night. With William Harrigan, visiting star, in the orig- inal role of Jimmy Gilley the play opened for a week's revival here, and with Miss Nedda Harrington as Vir- ginia Blalne the role she portrayed during the recent New York run. Ada Meade, the logical successor of Ada Rchan, enacted the , exacting gart of Fannp Gliley, whose hum. le flat, in New York, was the scene of the reconciliation of Robert Staf- ford and his wife, who rebelled at his repeated statements that she was ‘bought and pald for. Stafford left her rich apartment: 2 cause of these reproaches, she left all her jewelry and faced the world with nothing but the clothes to her back, determined that she would not be a chattel. Miss Harrington, as Vir- ginla Blaine, met all the require- ments of good acting, while Frank Dufrane was Stafford, the drunken spouse, who reformed, and finally was convinced that he was as much bought and paid for as his wife. Sara | Farrar played Josephine, the at tentive maid. J. E. Joyner was the polite Oku, Japanese servant, and six players were all the presentation re- quired. The drama was staged under | the direction of George Henry Tra- “ GARRICK— A il ML g it " e i i mission aga!nst the change. DEGREES FOR VETERANS.

STRAND—“The Rosary.” The popularity of the Strand Thea- ter's summer plan of presenting a series of specially selected photo- dramatic productions was evidenced by another large attendance yester- day, when “The Rosary,” a gripping romantic picture story, was shown. *The Rosar: though expressing the spiritual thought underlying the lives of the characters, is by no means a preachment, but at all times a strong, virile human drama, in which thrill and pathos are combined in just the proper manner. The story, woven around the simple lives of the peaceful folk of the fish- ing village of Sandy Bay, is replete with exciting episodes, the principal of which are caused by thé malicious activities of Kenwood Wright toward the kindly Father Brian Kelly, a part in which Lewls S. Stone gives one of | the finest characterizations of his career. ‘Tho dynamiting of the cannery, the climax of the production, Is a won- derfully realistic plece of work, while the blinding snowstorm into which Wright rushes, followed by an in- furiated mob, on being discovered as the perpetrator of the deed, and the scene where Father Brian tries to re- strain the mob from bloodshed have seldom been surpassed for fidelity to detail. The plot works to a happy culmination, leaving one thoroughly satisfied. The plece is presented by an excep- tionally talented cast, headed by Jane Novak. The feature film is supple- mented by short numbers, chief among them being a comedy, “Excuse Me, Sheriff,” which caused a storm of mirth. Special orchestral bers complete the bill. PALACE—“Grand Larceny.” “Grand Larceny,” a story by Albert Payson Terhune, has-been adapted to the moving picture screen, with El- Jiott Dexter in the leading role, and had its first showing here vesterday at Loew's Palace Theater. The production s a high-class drama with Mr. Dexter appearing as & business man who has won and married & young Virginia beauty. He is too engrossed in his business to pay much attention to his wife's wants, and soon she meets a number of other men who pay her much at- tontion. One of them makes love to her. The husband returns home un- expectedly and learns the state of affaire. ' He tells the man he can have the wife. A divorce follows and she marries the other man. This mar- riage proves a failure. Later the first husband comes to the realiza- tion he h not treated his wife fairly ries her, with the married couple. number, Better Lat is given by the Hal 3 events and toplc: of the day are also shown. COLUMBIA—*“Foolish Wives.” “Foolish Wives,” a picture filled with mystery and thrills, opened its second week yesterday at the Colum- bla Theator. The story gives an in- sight of the traps set by international crooks, to prey on the rich who visit Monte Carlo. It affords many oppor- tunities for excellent photography and good acting and none is wasted. Erich von Stroheim, author. di- rector and star, portrays realistically a bogus prince who endeavors to vic- timize an American diplomat. He is ably supported by Maude George, Mae Busch and Dale Fuller. METROPOLITAN—“Fools First."
