FLASHES FROM "STARS" Sir James M. Barrio, the English novelist nnd playwright, will spend a month In Amer ica, and will visit many cities. This Is not, as has boon stated, Sir James' first visit to Amer ica, but hli second. He first came to America In 1E96. One night In September of that year ho went to the Empire Theatre, uhero Maudo Adams was acting "Rosemary" with John Drew. Tho next morning ho visited Charles Frohman, to whom ho said; "If you will let me have Miss Adams' serv ices I will write a play for her within a year." And ho wrote "The Little Minister." "As to the war," said BarrK "I believe America nr a whole feels what England feels that this Is a necessary war ngalnst militar ism. Every country has been arming, and loaded guns always go off sooner or later. The Issue involved Is as clear-cut as the causo which brought It about whether soldiers or citizens are to rule Europe. "But there Is one distinction that should be made in stating the causes for war; namely, that the Kaiser I entirely to blame. This Is less than filr. The Kaiser was a young man in 1S70, when tho war spirit seized Germany. The Kaiser is tho product not the cause of Germany's militaristic system. There can be no peace, and no end to the present war, un less one side Is thoroughly beaten." A. H. Woods has put Wlllard Mack's play, "Kick In," Into rehearsal with a cast that in cludes John Barrymore, Jano Groy, Forrest Wlnant, Annie Mack Berlein and Ellta Proctor Otis. Marjorle Rambeau, in private life Mrs. Mack, was to havo played tho leading femi nine role, but she has given It up and has been succeeded by Miss Grey. Byron Ongley is stag ing the play. Frank Wilstach was for many years the schol arly and s.iplent advance agnt for cothern and Marlowe. Mr. Wilstach is now press agent for "Tho Follies of 1914." Tho advantages of hor aldlng uch a show are humorously described by Mr. Wilstach: "I rejoice that I have escaped from the thral dom of Shnkespeare; that I am now 'carrying tho colors' for 'The Passing Show of 1914.' With a Bard of Avon troupe there was no chance for language, and so one had to bo as serious as taxes, solemn as a King on a five-franc piece, or stupid as a hound chasing an iron deer. Now, all ifi unrestt ained. "When dibcusslng Shakespeare you can't very well refer to him as the blithesome, bubbling hard, or ns the whirling wizard of words, but ah! how easy and how nice it Is when you havo to write about a musical extravaganza. Theatri cal language Is grand. Richard LaGalllene talks a whole lot about 'beautiful words,' but givo me alliterations and adjectives and Jaw-breakers. "If one cannot have the use of all tho figures of speech, how can one achieve the fluidity nnd flexibility of expression that will excite atten tion, pique Interest and accolerato curlosltyf Let me write the adjectives In advance and I don't care who pens the criticisms. "Language without adjectives would be like a soup house without soup, rlvors without flsh. a forest without trees, or tho air without birds. Life without adjectives, trees, birds and soup would be unbearable." It Is said that many actors are not good Judges of what they can do. Nat Goodwin, one of America's most brilliant comedians, wanted, for Instance, to play Shylock. And after he had played It he met a friend. "Did you sea me as Shylock the other even ing?" asked Mr. Goodwin. "I was ther," tho friend replied, "but I couldn't see you as Shylock." So It Is. The comedian yearns for tragedy. The tragedian believes he would win fame and fortune as a comedian. Madama Nazlmova. who returned to this country last week to begin rehearsals in a play written by B. MacDonald Hastings, had much to say about the war and Its results in a sort of renaissance of art, "Out of this great strife a new order of things Is to come," she declared. "There will ba new forms of government and the greatest freedom of thought. Since progress was pos, sible under the old system, think of the prog, ress that will be possible under the new.

Whllo I am an American In spirit, I have long wished to bo an Interna tional actress to play In English In England, In France In French, In Germany In German and In Russia In Russian. Under the new art I would gladly be an International actress expressing myself In artistic media as funda mental and as eanlly understood as tho physi cal facts of all existence." According to Georgia Olp, who plays an Im portant rolo In "Too Many Cooks," an early attraction at the Adelphl, ambition Is a men ace if the aspirant worries about It.
