So It Is that when I came to cast
Claude Jervolse, tho pieudo-poet of Mr,
Sutro's comedy, I selected In Orlandq
Daly a, type that oxactly suited my
notion, at least, of what a. poet should
and would look Ilka; nnd yet gaze at Bomo
of the criticisms of the play. One police
man of tho drama said: "Ono of the most
curious things about the performance was
tho casting ot a smug stout comedian,
Orlando Daly, In the rolo of a poet."
Another overlord of the playhouse said;

Ono of my critic friends says: "Mr.
Sothern's poet looked llko a well-ftd
business man." Now, please, have a look
at this biography of Robert Browning;
"Mr, Browning, ample of girth, vna often
mistaken for a prosperous business man."
Here wo have revealed the fact that
the Cerbcruscs of the drama have had no
acquaintance with poets dead or alive;
that nil they know about poets aro their

Puck or Judge.
Take the poeta of any age, and you

SEVERAL years ago an American clrl
in Europe Isadora Duncan did a re
markable thing, and It has changed the
face of our theatrical art. Tights and
corsets, lilgh-heeled slippers and hats and
our ridiculous fashion In dress had so
dwarfed our bodies and our Ideas that had
we seen Venus de Mllo walking down
Chestnut street wo should have shrieked,
and exclaimed, "Heavens, what a figure!"
Why? Because for centuries wo had
eaten of the fruit at the tree ot knowl
edge of good and evil, modest and Im
modest, clothed and unclothed, till wa

of art and life as the real, and the

my own relation to the movement Is this;
Personally, J do not belong to tha Duncan
or Greek school, (save In tho largest sense
of the word. My Ideas of dancing are In
another direction. I conceived and cre
ated dances before many of these move

vaguely heard of other dances, and In
both matter and expression had a very
different conception, my highest Ideas be

BROADWAY LIGHTS BAD
FOR PICTURES
J
If for no other reason thnn tho fact that
New York's Broadway Is 3000 miles away,
Southern California will continue In the
futura to be tho centre of tho motion-picture
producing Industry, according to
Jesse L. Lasky, president of tho Jesse L.
"1-asky Feature I'lay Company, Return
ing to New York, where tho executive
offices of the Lasky company are located,
Mr. Lasky this week v oleed his sentiments
In the controversy that Is being carried
on between Kastorn and Western pro
ducers, that the West had all the better
of It.
"In tho past few months, comparative
ly," said Mr. Lasky, "since so many
Broadway stars of the legitimate stags
have entered motion pictures, one of
their difficulties Is being able to adjust
themselves' to new working conditions. In
the legitimate theatre the actor works ut
night, or, at earliest, at the matinee,
under artificial light. In the motion-picture
work, however, the man or woman
star must submit tho features to the
scrutinizing glare of bright sunlight. It
Is a small point, but one the Importance
of which cannot be overemphasized, that
because Btage stars when in Los Angeles
are far removed from thi temptations of
Broadway and the delights ot Ita night
life, they retire earlier, get more sleep,
and look better In the morning "
Mr, Lasky also said that within one
day the Lasky studio has taken photo
graphs of deberts, cotton fields, fruit
ranches, frontier scenes in small West
ern towns, Spanish missions, sunken gar
dens, tropical foliage and exact repro
ductions of the Bay of Manico, the cliffs
of Kngland, and perfect reproductions of
Japanese palaces and tea gardens and an
Italian villa.
"But what would you do tor a New
York."
