Butterick Pattern Section— Main Floor -THE NEW PLAYS “East of Suez” Has Power, Realized by Florence Reed. By CHARLES DARNTON FTER the mild pleasantries of sultry weeks in the theatre it was almost violently invigorating to experience at the Eltingo last night “Hast of Sues," a strongly sexed melodrama ‘by W. Somerset Maugham, with Flotence Reed thoroughly alive to its full-blooded possibilities. When Maugham bas a mind to do it he can handle men and women A without gloves, strip them of pretense, and make them uncomfortably honest. He seems to take a savage delight in getting under their akin at times, and this is one of those times. To do it he has gone out of his way, scorning to stop short of China, perhaps to color his blood and rol] his thunder. Here is melodrama, if you like, but it is melodrama with brains. Back of it {s an intelligent idea, a reminder that alten blood not only doesn’t mix well, but that, like water, it is bound to find its own level. That patient old devil,,Lee Tai *—————————_______.

Howard Store for the daughter of a white man|Lang made Lee Tai a very good and a Chinese mother. It is as cer- | waiter, tain as the fate of the Japanese hero- ine of “Kimono.” The suicide of Daisy's English lover, simply because he knows that her English husband and his friend will learn through nis letters that be has been false to him, is of no im- portance whatsoever. In fact, this seems no less than a cowardly act on the part of the playwright. Maug- ham might at least have let the fellow stand his ground and take his med!- cine like a man. For that matter, an Englishman wouldn't be at all likely to kill himself in these circumstances. And after all, George Conway is by no mean: bad chap. His fling with the girl long before she met Ander- son was his own affair. When he encounters her again he promises for her sake to say nothing about even shadier phases of her earlier sife, But once Daisy is married she proceeds to throw herself at his head in spite of his determination to have nothing im- proper to do with her. There can be no possible sympathy for her when she tacitly becomes a party to her wily mother’s plan to have Anderson mourdered so that she may be free to marry George. It is interesting to learn that the Chinese have a trick of luring a victim into the street with cries for help in English and then muking short work of him, but it 1s o better trick that Maugham plays by having Conway instead of the hus- band be the innocent sufferer. This also ma .es It possible for the wounded man tn his delirium to reveal to Dais that he still loves her. It is her fierce selfishness that brings final dis- aster. Meanwhile the rich Chinese merchant can afford to wait for what he is sure to get.

In @ report concerning the marriage of Miss Marion C. Bourne, daughter of the late Frederick G. Bourne, to Rob- ert G. Elbert, The World on Tuesday stated that the couple had been so- Journing at the home of Mr. dnd Mrs. R. B. Strassburger, Normandy Farm, Gwynedd Valley, Pa. This war an error which Mr. Strassburger has requested The World to correct. His wife {s a sister of the bride. ‘The Strassburgers were not aware that the couple contemplated marriage, and Mr. Elbert has never been at Normandy Farm. Mr. Stra burger also has requested The ‘ork correct the report that ho married his wife without the consent of her parents and that as a conseque there was an estr: ment with father until ten years ago. An exemination of newspaper files hows that the engagement was pub- licly announced six months prior to the wedding, and that the ceremony was attended by the bride's parents.
