SCHOOL DAYS OF THE PAST.
Do you remember years ago when thought
ef the future- did not dumfound you nor
ever frighten you, when the only things
la worry about wore quarter baseballs, get
ting home in tlmo for meals and tho most
effective way of playing hookey? If you
do, you also will remember that individual
With a long face and sorrowful volco who
solemnly announced that this program of
yours would ultimately lead you to tho
devil or to some other equally undesirable
citizen. He warned you that life was a
battle in which only tho strong triumphed,
while the "weak, perished miserably. He
painted horrible pictures of you In tho days
v come, lounaering on tho reefs ol failure
simply because you did not take advantage
5scnooi aays Decause you would go
paiijf-Euntuiff, cop-baiting, ball-playing, or,
maybe, fishing, (The "guy wot writes dls"
never saw a boy who wanted to iro flslilnsr.
however. The fishing habit comes later,
When tho love of blood, thunder and adven
ture generally has become but a memory;
When the protuberant, seemingly never to
. be realised ambition is to dodge n light
unnecessary ones, anyway. Fishing Is an
avocation for pacifists ; It docs not belong
to the category of a hookey-player's sins,
especially in a crowded city section, where
fish are never seen until long after they
havo ceased to possess an Interest for a
true sportsman.)
v Yet it Is possible that solemn vlsaged gen
, tleman did tell ydu haw wicked It was to
go fishing when you ought to be In school.
-Maybe he did. More likely ho told you
that skipping school to be a "rowdy" wasn't
conducive to a later successful career In
, business. You Bald nothing; you always
were polite to solemn-faced gentlemen, for
they sort of interested you as a baflllng
human phenomenon; but In your heart you
didn't care, you didn't give a whoop, con
tinental or what-not. School was a dull
, Jilace', where politeness was compulsory, not
i a ireo will offering where the teacher, in
; the interests of discipline, "never acted
. human"; "where with a voice that was shrill
and nasal you had to sing "My Country,
Tls of Thee" before, the rest of the room,
including the girl bless her memory 1 who
' aat Tight across from you. That was "naw
ful place" to be in ; to be away from it was
your ambition. Then was born the thought
of truancy: it lived, waxed strong and
. tempting and became your almost dally
, Inspiration.
But now the days of boyhood's blissful
Ignorance are only a scented memory of
tweet illusions and In the tierce competition
for place on the band wagon you wish you
were better equipped, although you never
yecret, having ignored the solemn-faced gen
tleman. You know now he was right, but
k didn't know you. He wanted to warn
the boy of a future which the boy "ish-ka-Vbtled'r
about. The boy didn't even real
tea ho was going to have a future. But the
Public Education and Child Labor Associa
tion of Pennsylvania knows such a future
" is ahead of every boy, rich or poor the
poor haven't a monopoly on the need of ef
ftcleacy, The association would make tho school
, a place that the boy would rather be In
than out of. It would guard his futuro
without his knowing it It would not only
teach arithmetic, language, history and ge
ography. It would have in its curricula also
music, motion pictures, debates, play.
grounds, gymnasiums, swimming pools,
school gardens, workshops and excursions.
Last night, with tho season drawing to a
close, Philadelphia saw her first and only
production of Shnkcspcaro In hto ter
centenary year. And It wns to tho credit of
a company of negro players sho owed
thanks.
Since theso colored nmatcurs first assem
bled a fow weeks ago, Now York and Bos
ton havo seen nnd said nood things of the
,porformnnco which Edwar Starling Wright's
company repeated nt tho Walnut last night.
Tho praise It has received Is easy to un
derstand, becauso It Is well merited. No
one of the many players gavo a notablo
performance; there were small slips hero
nnd thqre In tho physical sldo of tho pro
duction; but every individual performance
showed hard work and painstaking thought,
and camo somewhere near expressing tho
character and emotions Involved. Amateurs
are always amateurs, but Mr. Wright's
players are creditable ones, at least.
Mr. Wright himself makes tho Moor n
striking figure. Tho head, tho poise, tho
naturalness of beard and makeup, gave a
mora satisfactory Impression of Shake
speare's character than many a famous
star's. Tho Illusion of tho other players
was naturally Incomplete except, nerhans.
in tho case of Elmer Leon Pnyn's Itodorlgo
but some excelled even their well-schooled
chief In tho reading of their lines. While
Mr. Wright gavo real spirit and authority
to his more powerful moments, hl3 volco
scenrsd a lltta tiff nnd his delivery stilled
In the BOfter . ages. Mr. John H. Bnm
scy, on tho otner hand, who played Ingo,
missed tho sense of malignancy, but read
with invariable grace and case. Tho Des
demona of Margaret Brown suggested very
well tho "supcr-subtlo Venetian." And In
no actor was thero any suggestion of race,
so far as volco ait l acting went
AH in all, this unlquo "Othello" Is excel
lently dono and decidedly Interesting. It
gives new angles t6 a not very subtle or
human melodrama. K. M.

Jasper, a dog which has been tho guest
of many of tho most famous men In the
world, proved to be tho biggest surprlseMn
the show nt Keith's last night He doesn't
do tho things which other vaudeville or
circus canines do. Jasper understands
English. At tho bidding of his master ho
carried a handkerchief to ono of tho upper
boxes, touched the keys of n typewriter
and piano, Upset things about tho stage nnd
straightened them out again, nnd In fact
carried out nil orders like nnd obedient
child. Ho also sneezed when requested to,
which Is Bomcwhat difficult even for a
human being to do. Frequently Jasper
barked after his feats and on receiving ap
plause seemed quite content.
Tho dog's master announced that Jnsper
hns been received personally by President
Wilson, Ex-President Tnft Thomas A.
Edison, many distinguished educators and
tho governors of States and cities all over
tho country.
It Is posmblo that ho will visit somo of
tho city ofllclnls during the' present week.
Anron Hoffman, who ha"3 the happy habit
of giving us something new to think nbout,
has dono it ngaln In "Tho Unexpected," a
sketch, presented by George Nash and
Julia Hny, Two burglars, a man and
woman, each attempt, without the other's
knowledge, to rob a house. They meet nnd
try to bluff each other "off the Job." Then
they discover tho houso Is that of a former
burglar, who "double-crossed" them In tho
past. They dectdo to stcnl n rubv from
tho safo nnd shnro tho value. As they are
nbout to leave, a servant appears. The1
man burglar kills him nnd tho woman Is
killed In trying to escape. Then, when
thrills nro nt tho highest pitch, it suddenly
UOVC10PS mat tno whole thing Is tho re
hearsal of a play.
Tho story despite Its Improbability, Is
handled In such clover fashion, with the
exception of tho morgun finish, that one
almost wishes it went on consistently to
tho end. But these nro tho days of tho
last-mlnuto "punches," so, therefore, wo
havo got In tho habit of looking for some
thing queer to happen nt the end. Tho
audience enjoyed tho sketch Immensely,
especially tho breezy eplgrnms at vthlch
Mr. Hoffman Is especially adept. Tho act
ing was all that could bo desired.
The Misses Campbell, two sisters from
tho Southland, upset all calculations and
rnlscd general havoc with the show by
tying It up with npplausc. This dosplto
the fact that they had to do a full stngo
act In "one," tho space usually allotted to
a monologlst. These Southern sisters, who
play nnd sing In a style all their own,
hnvo a very decided way of getting the
nudlencc nnd holding It Their songs were
clover nnd they believed in letting those
present henr tho words.
Bon Ryan nnd Hnrrletto Leo mado good
In welcomo crazylsms. Kelly, Wilder and
company presented nn artistic musical act,
which was exceptionally well received.
Vnn and Schenck Ilod up to their past
performances. Frank Mullnno sang nnd
conversed. Vauda Hoff and a company
of artistic dancers did ns well ns possible
In tho closing spot, while Lo Hocn and Du
prceco appeared in a novel ringing and
sh'ootlng act.

CHEVY CHASE, Md , May 23. There
was tampoiary consternation nt tho femi
nlno"rooklcs" camp today, when a bugle
call resounded fully 1C minutes ahead of
time. Tho soldlercncs were summoned be
foro Commandant Poo, who announced that
a platinum wrist watch, set with diamonds,
had been lost by Mrs. W. L. Rlghtcr, of
Plalnfleld, N. J. Thero was a gasp of
sympathy, followed by a scurrying about
every nook nnd corner of tho camp. Tho
Jewel was found In tho shower baths. Fol
lowing Its discovery, a unanimous sigh of
relief escaped tho fair defenders nnd they
plunged into n meal of beefstenk, potatoes
and other normal things. Incidentally, It
na uiu uqetstcaics aouut hero.
One of tho most Industrious workers in
the commissary department is the Itev.
Myles Andrews Julius Ithyncs, who. In
addition to being a minister. Is an ex

Its nno and Just sublime to help the
"rookies" when they dlno. He writes things
right off tho reel nnd has something now
for every meal.
Rhynos wrote a book of poems nnd those
who saw it say It's full of good thoughts.
Colonel Jefferson Keane, Military Director
of the Rd Cross, the second speaker, ox
pressed tho belief that the camp could not
fall to creato a widening circle of influence
for good.
Miss Marlon Oliver, a former student in
the camp, also spoke.
Among the prominent visitors were
Charles D. Barney nnd his daughters, the
Baroness von HUler nnd Mrs. Joseph Bunt
ing, who wero shown about the camp by Mr.
Barney's other daughters, Mrs Henry Mil

"rookies." Admiral Dewey, Surgeon Gen

aiternoon.
By the Tholonlay Editor
On those reader's of tho Evening Lbdoeh
who nightly revel In the Italian dialect
poems of T. A. Daly, let it bo Urged that
they go to tho Stanley Theatre nnd see
"Fasqunlo," tho new Morosco-Paramount
film which is now playing there,
"Pasquale" Is George Beban, nnd that
means Italian chnrncter acting of a supertax
tlvo kind. Ono feels nil If Daly's "Gulseppe"
and nil his other Inimitable characters were
translated from tho book to tho screon.
But there is still more. There Is that
wonderful character instinct peculiar to
George Beban In his Italian parts. Ho Is
Italian to tho finger tips. He reeks of
spaghetti.
Tho picture itself la wondorful for an
other reason. Tho present war is brought
In by tho expedient of sending Posquolo to
tho front Scenes on tho battle line nre
shown that compnre favorably with "The
Birth of a Nation." Thero Is a most
bcnutlful night eceno Bhowlng a Zeppolln
maneuvering over the Italian camp. The
nashes of tho searchlights in pursuit or mo
raider form n most startling nnd unusual
lighting effect in a picture reploto with
clover touches.
With "PaBqualo" nnd deserving a whole
paragraph to ltsolf, goes Charllo Chaplin's
last Essany release, "Police." It is no
"Carmen." It tells Ith own nmuslng story
of a burglary by two convicts ono of them
Chaplin, of courso JUBt out of prison. Moro
than that, it Isn't padded out with dupli
cate prints nnd useless characters and
action. It is all gonulno fun.
In "Pollco" Chaolln has managed to in
vent qulto n fow new bits of "business"
without deserting tho familiar oims which
mako his personality or venturing Into fields
whero plot or mechanism overshadow him.
In one of tho very opening scenes ho nego
tiates a bit of repentant sorrow which is
full of the best sort of lino comic action.
For story nnd acting tho best of the
othor illms In town Is "The Middleman,"
nn Kngllsh production made with Al
bert Chevalier In tho leading part and
Imported by Metro. Stnco It Is founded on
Henry Arthur Jones' successful drama of
tho old potter who discovers new glazes to
keep his employer out of bankruptcy while
his employer's Bon gets his daughter Into
unwitting trouble, thero Is plenty of action
In the five reels a thing not to bo said of
half our American films. To push tho mnt
ter of comparison further, what a rcllof
to get rid of tho streets and flora of Los
Angeles for n time and sco tho London
Embankment with Its sphynx, tho River
Thnmes nnd Its old bridges I Much ot the
detail in tho film Is excellent It is curious
to note thnt whllo tho English moonlight
tint Is very bad, scones of firelight in nn
African camp nro reproduced bettor than
In nny but our most exceptional produc
tions. Two pieces of nctlng stand out If
wo omit tho uiual well-bred nnd convincing
English hero. They are tho work of Cheva
lier himself and 'tho moro pungent imper
sonation ot the vul&Tarly grasping: business
man.
Thero is a good deal of the unusual In
"A Son of tho Immortals," In spite of its
"Zenda-araUstark stuff." This new Blue
bird film, which came to the Regent yester
day, adds to the customary American king
of a Balkan nation a few bombings and riots
that nro decldodly exciting, In spite of Iho
censor. It displays some very elaborate
settings, Including streets and a public
place In "Kosnovln," and a large hall In an
nrt gallery. The story moves along swift--ly,
with plenty of events and good picture
punch, until near the end, when a novelist s
notion of plot gets In the way of a smash
ing and convincing nnisn. -ine nnrm is
hardly serious, however. Pretty Mr. Ker
rigan plays the youthful hero.
But when, oh I when will directors ao-nulre-nn
ounce of sense or observation con
cerning newspapers? There have doubtless
been ono or two genuine headlines on tho
screen In the last six years, but when has
the type or the surrounding matter over re
sembled renllty? "A Son of the Immor
tals" has what Is probalilj' tho worst ex
ample of this sort of botching this year. Not
only nre the headlines and tho body of
stories bad I not only does tho flrst appear
In a French dally next to scareheads on
suffrago In tho United States Senato and
somo American auto raco or other, but when
tho two othor and later Issues of tho samo
paper aro shown, thoso same Impossible
stories on suffrage and sport nre repro
duced nround tho new dispatches from
"Kosnovla."
Tho victoria displayed yesterday a
Brndy-World production, "Tangled Fates."
At bottom it Is "mbvlo stuff," beginning
with n traglo misunderstanding which
couldn't havo been a misunderstanding If school for tho establishment of , Wtaiel 'n
pcoplo on tho screen behaved Ilka peo- medical research fund " In trwL, PHM 'i
nlo in real life. But once theso Drellm- Annlo Glllendor. ni.f. . i.r!T of liln H
Innrles nro over this talo of n woman loved
by two men, won by tho worso and ras
cuod by the better, is excellently staged.
Its scenes of fights and nccldents in AInBkn
nro particularly good. Tho good work of
Alice Brady makes "Tangled Fates" thor
oughly interesting onco tho premises nro
granted.
Yesterday the Palaco showed tho Paramount-Lanky
production, "Tho Heart of
Nora Flynn," already reviewed favorably
from Its production nt tho Stanley, nnd tho
first Instalment of tho Blllte Burke serial,
"Gloria's Romance." Thursday comes
Dustlnn Farnum in "David Garrick."
