THE NEW PLAYS “Nice People” Hits Rich Rowdies. By CHARLES DARNTON Everything was new in West 45th Street last night—the’ Kiaw The- etre, in gray and gold and jade, with the orchestra playing mysteriously above the boxes; the star, Francine Larrimore, defying Billie Burke; and the play “Niee People,” with Rachel Crothers sticking her pen into wealthy young rounders. The play was the chief thing of interest, because of the ides it set forth, Miss Seorpers, is always intelligent and she has a discerning hr goog for ma- terial,” It has not her keen vision that young le with more money than brains deserve to have a bait cafled on them, and she Is right when she makes a plea for a culture = aa sense in thi country, gees even further by declaring, through one of her char- acters, that America is infinitely ‘worse than Europe in its dissipations. Aside from the #o-called war reaction —which to my mind ie all nonsense— she gets pretty close to the truth, Bhe means, of course, that fools who spend their money and thelr lives for the of amusement are no good to themselves or their country, Perhaps beim remembers the French Revolu- ion. But in the first part of her! play Bliss Crothers gives a somowhat son- eational view of life in a Park Avonne @partment, a license to liquor, pro- fanity and impudence that was had enough to be true in the days or nights of the old Tenderloin. Having lived in New York scarcely twenty years I know nothing of “goings-on” such as these. I can't imagine a Park Avenue father peeling otf $80 to his young daughter for a “party” after she and her friends have be- come somewhat hilarious in his nome. In tact, I was surprised to find that @ father was an inhabitant of this gay place, but when he appeared it ‘was easy enough to believe that his daughter might be something more than a chip of the old block. Witb- out adding another syllable, the fact remains that.the father is at [ault, for he gives*his daughter $25,000 a year and then pays her “expenses. ' Phe wonder is that the girl hasn't | => gone to the devil long ago, thanks to her father, It happens that “Teddy” sneaks out of Park Avenue into a roadhouse, and after a night of dancing, motors along until she comes to her little $3,000 farm. She thinks she loves *Spottie,” but he talke about money and goes to sleep, A young stranger therefore bursts in upon the rich maiden and during a thun- Gerstorm she listens to his sensible He is a simple youth and he up a ten-thousand-a-year job ew York to work with her on her $8,090 farm, He refuses to take her millions, but lad And there you are, #0 far as values landseay fire concerned! At any rate,, Miss Larrimore’a red hi hair 1s an asset. SALTUS ART MEDAL WON BY C, H. DAVIS\ | ‘iucemieae AMUSEMENTS.
