RRITAIiN DAILY HERALD, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1916. & e ews for Theater Goers an A STORY YOU CAN BEGIN AT ANY 1TIME Her Side--and His How Cora and David Temple Solved Their Marital Problems By ZOE BECKLEY Afternoon. Enter Walt Stedman A well set up, informal looking young entered. “My beau. Walter Stedman,” Janet Tt smiled, ward by the hand as though he were a little boy giant. ‘“Walter, these are Mr. and Mrs. Temple. They are my friends, and you are not to step on them by accident or squash them or do anything awful,” she added with mock anxiety for his behavior. The Temples agd Walt joined in a laugh that was as good as a year of knowing each other in putting ever one at east. “Can’t promise, Janet,” he laughed as he shook hands with the Tem- ples. “I mean to do some lively stepping around to show off my best paces and make a hit with Mr. and Mrs. Temple. Maybe in my anxiety I'll step through something—but my intentions are kindly.”” The Temples settled back in comfort. Walt was as easy to get on terms of comfort with as though he was already an old friend. He had the thinker’s brow and a squarish jaw; smiling, friendly understanding eyes and a mouth that could equally well frame a laugh or tighten into serious ef- fectiveness. It was a face that inspired trust at once and dependence soon after. In temperament he was a contrast to Janet. Her nervous system worked rapidly, almost explosiv his flowed more deliberately. But he caught trains on time, got his work done effectively and covered more than ample ground without ever appearing to hurry. At twenty-one, when he had just graduated from a fresh water col- Jege and was about to start on his upward climb as a writer of plays, his father died, leaving a family of four dependent on Walt. He accepted the responsibility without question. Playwriting promised to be a longish road before it would enable Walter to support his mother and the three chil- dren. So he entered the employ of an advertising agency as writer, an oc- cupation which helped him little as a dramatist, but was satisfactory as a steady and reliable source of income—which was then the all-important consideration to Walt. At the end of five years as chief support of his father’s family, Walter had the responsibility removed from his shoulders by his younger brother, Rob, who had just been graduated from college himself. ‘Walt came on to New York then, where he grappled with the problem of learning the art of playwriting and earning a living at the same time. His first realization of how hard the problem was came with the return of seven plays and sketches of his in succession from various managers with more or less sincere regrets that “the inclosed manuscripts are not adapted to our use.” Walter was not the type who spring fully developed into mastery and success from the start. He went deeply and lastingly into whatever he set out to do; hence his progress was likely to be deliberate. After the re- turn of his flock of efforts at playwriting Walt found that if he wanted to keep on eating and sleeping under a roof, to say nothing of wearing fit clothes, he would have to turn to some work that would bring him money at once. Playwriting was not that kind of work as yet. He secured an assistant editorship in the office of a fiction magazine, where his work was the read- ing of shoals of would-be contribu-tions to the magazine and editing the accepted ones. For eight hours a dayof this work he was paid just enough to support him and a little more, but not enough to support another per- son. At this point he met Janet, who was then secretary to the owner of the magazine. With more promptness than he had ever decided anything else in life, he decided that he had found the woman he wanted as his life partner. And Janet, with equal promptness and eagernes seconded the nomination on her own part. At once “Schoolmistress Life” set them a series of problems to solve— problems which grew in number, complexity, depth and difficulty with every step forward they took. man leading him for- A Difficult Position A friend of mine has recently had an offer to give up her position in a library and go to live with a rich friend. She told me about it because she knew I had a relative who once tried that same experiment, and she want- ed me to write and ask that relative for advice. This is the letter I recieved. thought it might be of general interest. Put the Position On a Business Basis. “Don’t. But if you do, put the po- sition on a business basis. Make some definite time arrangement so that if you are not happy you can part with- out a break. If you are both satisfied the agreement can be renewed. “Try to have an understanding of what is expected f you—dusting, mending, marketing, answering letters, making out checks. Make up your mind to do enough so that you will feel that you are earning your board” (she is to receive only her board.) “But for your board you should not be expected to give up your whole time and you should stipulate on hours of your own. You Don’t Have to Go Everywhere They Go. “Talk things over and tell Mrs. M. that you do not intend to interfere with her liberty. If she and her hus- band are asked out to dinner, even by a mutual friend, it is not necessary that you should go too. If they give dinner parties you do not expect to be present at all of them. You under- stand that an extra woman is some- times de trop. On the other hand, her house is your home and she should bo willing to let you have your friends to meals occasionally if you choose a convenient time and pay a stated sum for each guest according to the cost of extra food. Be more careful of her money than of yvour own. Do not use more 1 | than your share of electric light and hot water. Do not monopolize the newspaper, the new magazines or the telephone. Never Criticise the Servants Or Cor- rect the Children. “Make your own bed, dust your own room, never go into the kitchen or criticise the servants. Servants al- ways resent the presence of a lady in a paid position. Be on time to meals. Do not ask for the automobile or the use of the piano unless it is offered. Do not correct the children. Do not allow Mr. M. to ask your opinion on business or other matters, and do not let him feel that you are the one woman who really appreciates and understands him. Even if he and Lis wife have reached the indifferent stage no woman will tolerate the in- terference of another woman. Go to your room soon after dinner every night. Remember that there are things a husband and wife may want to talk over alone. Vanish at the shad- ow of a dispute. Do not allow per- sonal confidences and do not take sides. Do you think that you are equal to all this and that the position preferable to the library and inde- pendence? The Y. M. C. A.

Mae Phelps, as Mrs. Hopper, is one of the best cast in the show. Both as to singing and dancing, Miss Phelps has many opportunities to display ver- satality.

The play is the funniest combination of ecircum- stances ever staged, but it is also a practical lesson to those who do believe in advertising, it teaches a great truth.
