That Is Paris and that Is "Como to Bohemia" or most of It. There Is no denying that somo of tho Jokes In tho new piece at tho Forrest aro well turned! Just as there Is no denying the presence of "He's got tho pip," and "Why send to Africa for Ivory?" both In about weakest third act In recent memory. It Is likewise that labor known us supcr rerogatlon to contraveno tho fact that FrlU Williams and Alice liegeman can be funny when they havo something to bo funny over! that Dcnman Malcy has a bit of tho Tlnnoy nccont; that Muriel Jludsrin Is high spirited and good Bport enough to laugh at her own dnnclng ; that Snlsie Irving has a good voice, a cultl vatcd enunciation and a. pleasant way, that some would have liked to sco a little moro of Thyra von Ulm, who appeared briefly as Venus; that tho costumes wcro striking In a Bakstlan manner and good to look at; that somo peoplo found con Bldcrablo Interest In tho puzzle nnent tho dancers.

But they clapped in that depresstngly personal manner which sig nified that tho society of friends wcro present. As for tho score. If It had been a Her bert It would have carried tho rest; for much of tho "book" Is no worso than dozens' or others. But Mr. Murchison's score Isn't likely to keep tho composer of "Tho Only Qlrl" sitting up nights. It haa catchy tunes: but they'vo been caught already by other music mon. Some you can place llko "Stlcktlte," which Is largely "Women" from "Tho Merry Widow." Somo you can't. "Deep In tho Heart" U ono of these. And there Is ono song, "Tho Vnmplre," that might bq a humorous hit If It was Illustrated with a screen satlro on the eternal Theda. Altogether, the Forrest supplies very few reasons for coming to Bohemia. K. M. "DAMAGED GOODS" RETURNS TO THE WALNUT ONCE MORE Familiar and Powerful Drama by Brieux in Town Again At this lato day there Is very llttlo to say about "Damaged Goods," certainly nothing now. It is still a powerful and salutary drama, with neither pity nor prudery In It. It deals with Its subject matter openly, fearlessly and honestly It Is n play Quito as much as It Is a preach ment. And It has returned to tho Walnut for what may be tho fifth or sixth time. No play could have been named 10 years ago which seemed less likely of produc tion, let alono success, on the American stage. No play of tho last few years has kopt moro steadily In tho public eye. It Is, therefore, a Just tribute to Richard Bennett that his name still is given a place on tho program. Knickerbocker Gives 'The Thief "The. Thief," Henri Bernstein's Inter esting 'drama, la being presented In an admirable, manner by tho Knickerbocker Tlayers. .The dramatic story. In which a woman resorts to stealing In order to secure finery to beautify herself In tho eyes of hor husband, Is well known, but it is rarely that a Btock company Interprets tho piece ho well. John Warner as the young husband and Emily Smiley as tho wife wero seen to a decided advantage, holding tho au dience nigh breathless in the boudoir Bcene where the wife Is discovered as tho thief. Earl Western as Fernand La gardes, the youth who poses as a thief to shield the wife, was all that could bo asked, while Philip Lord and Josle Slsson as 'Raymond and Isabella Lagardes, his parents. Are also good. The play was well Btaged., Grace George Comedy at American "A; Woman's Way," Thompson Bu chanan's comedy of domestic life, In which Grace George scored such a success, was presented last night at the American Theatre by the Oeorge Arvlne Players. The story has to do with a young wife who cures her husband's affection for another woman by bringing him to realize Her own worth. Ituth Robinson por trayed the part of Marlon Stanton, the wife, and Richard La Salle was seen as Howard Stanton, tho husband. Marie Warren was cast as Mrs. Blakemore, "the woman." The character parts of Mrs. Stanton and Mrs. Livingston were ca pably handled by Ada Prince and Hen rietta Vaders. The remainder of the cast Included Harry Wllgus, Russell Snoad, Thomas Shearer, Sammy Lynch, Frank Rusaell and Virginia Mannings. Bobby Heath Nixon Grand Bobby Heath la back again. Which was sufficient In itself to bring Joy to the patrons of the Nixon Grand last night. When the popular Philadelphia songster started a week'B. engagement at the up town house and delighted the crowded house with his unusually clever songs and chatter Much credit Is due to Lester Jefferies, of Narberth, Pa., who presented the act and who took especial care to see that no details were slighted. Saljle Fields assisted Heath In the act and scored a success In her own line. This offering' overshadowed the rest on tho bill, despite the other strong numbers, which included Mr. and Mrs, George Alli son. Four Gordon Highlanders, Tom GIN JiXk Pfl and Hazel Mann, and Rio and .worman, We can renovfte yolir ola-Tloors at ar less than the cost of a desirable irpct.
