been religious. "Ben Hur" Is still playing, and
will bo soon seen again, for tho 16th time, In
Philadelphia. "Quo A'adls" has not lost Its
appeal, ns Is manifest In the production of the
"movie drama." There were "The Sign of tho
Cross" nnd "Tho Christian" memorable suc
cesses ot not one, but many persons.
Says Sladame Bernhardt:
"Tho theatre reflects the thoughts of a nn
tlon; it is Incessantly striving to embody what
la beautiful nnd true. Sometimes It Is far In
advance of public opinion, and must wait until
the right moment has come. This was the
case scarcely 20 years ago In regard to tho
religious question In the theatre. Now public
opinion is more conciliatory, and It Is admitted
that tho religious dramas written In the lost
ten years challenge our admiration by their
grandeur nnd beauty. AVo need more."
In tho humblest realms ot life there ore Par
slfals todoy seeking the "Holy Grail" of some
Inviolate passion, Bomo transcendent soul ex
perience, somo exaltation beyond the mortal.
AVlth nations at strife, with the desolations
nnd abominations of wnr, we may seek a
factious diversion In amuBlng banalities, never
theless, there was never a time when dramaa
seriously and sacredly dealing with tho spirit
ual themes of life with lovo In Its holiest
sense with humanity's loftiest aspirations and
bearing an Inspiring message, were more to
be desired. At this catastrophic epoch a. really
sublime religious drama would meet with a
mighty response.
FLASHES FROM "STARS"
SIIss Ida Hamilton, who wilt play Fanny In
"HIndle AA'akes" when It Is presented at the
Little Theatro on November 16, Is a believer In
suffrage and an earnest advocate of equal
rights for women, not merely from the stand
point of the ballot, but from the standpoint of
tho Judgment of the world. She disapproves,
however, of militant methods, believing them a
hindrance rather than a help, because they
prejudice the general public.
FrnnK Craven, who will appear at tho
Adelphl later In the season In his comedy,
"Too Slany Cooks," declares that the present
European war will give Impetus to the writing
of a surfeit of military dramas which will
result In the ultimate triumph of comedy plays
as entertainment. "Sly Idea of the show busi
ness Is that Its paramount purpose Is to enter
tain," says he, "and It must bo conceded that
nothing entertains so completely as something
amusing, something that causes hearty laugh
ter." Pedro de Cordoba, now playing Stephen Ben
nett in Edward Sheldon's "Song of Songs," at
tho Broad Street Theatre, began his stage
career with E. H. Sothern In "If I Were King,"
"Hamlet" and "The Proud Prince."
Edward Peple, author of "A Pair of Sixes"
and other successful plays, has Just finished
another farce which he has not yet named.
It will be produced by II, H. Frazee.
The threo principal comedians In "A Pair ot
Sixes" at the Adelphl Theatre, Ralph Herz,
Hale Hamilton and Fritz AVllllams, are college
graduates. Herz graduated from Oxford Uni
versity; Hamilton from the University of Kan
pas, and AVllllams from Fordham University
In New York.
Cyril Harcourt, wno Is appearing In his own
comedy, "A Pair of Silk Stockings," achieved
distinction In England as a novelist before he
became a successful playwright. His novel,
"The World's Daughter," attained wide popu-
