Tho presentation of "Made In Phllly" at
Keith's Theatre Monday may mark an
epooh in theatrical history In Philadelphia.
This Is the first tlmo a production of this
kind has been attempted in vaudeville In
this city, and it promises to establish an
annual custom that will be looked forward
to each year. For several years It has
been tho custom to produce "Bovuos" In
other big cities, presenting local talent in
stage settings which arc familiar to tho
eye of the residents. "Made In Phllly" Is
the Initial effort along these lines and no
expense or labor has been spared In making
the production complete In every detail.
More than a score of years ago "Miss
Philadelphia" was produced In this city
with nn all-star company and ran many
successful weeks at the old Te Fark
Theatre. Many Broadway stars, however,
wire Imported for this production, so that
It waa not nn "All Philadelphia" produc
tion. "Made In Phllly" W been written
by two Philadelphia boys, staged and
costumed In this city and every member
of the company Is a Phlltfdelphlan, so that
It Is a Philadelphia production In every
sense of the word.
Whllo Now York, Chicago and other cities
have had their Summer Rovues this city
has been without one, although the B. F.
Keith's Theatre has been kept open all the
year round, ever since It was erected In
1902. Harry T. jtfordan, general manager of
the Keith Interests In this city, has the pro
duction In hand. The book, music and lyrics
wers written by Frank Orth and the pro
duction waa staged and produced under
the direction of Keller Mack. Special dances
and numbers have been introduced by Al
White, who Is Philadelphia's most'popular
teacher of stage dancing, and there will be
an augumented orchestra under the direc
tion of Andrew Byrne, Jr. H. Bart
McHugh, who has produced many big
vaudevlllo features, directed the staging and
costuming of "Made In Phllly" and every
bit oi scenery was built by the Keith
Theatre mechanics.
Monday night will, in a sense, rival
"First Night" at a Broadway production.
Special invitations have been Issued to city
officials and prominent Phlladelphtans, who
will be present to make the evening a
memorable one In the history of Keith's
Theatre.

Laurence Eyre a "Sazua
Matazufl" Shown at
Apollo Theatre
ATLANTIC CITY, July 1, Optimistic re
ports, brought here by managers, producers
and actors, of tho business being done at
the tag end of the theatrical season proves
that the situation Is clearing up nicely for
next year. Despite the Jinx that a presi
dential election year Is supposed to cast
over the theatrical business every one la
sAngulne about next season- and Is proving
It by taking lengthy vacations and spending
a lot of nioney. Managers, agents and por
formers are holding dally confabs here over
the past and present, and a healthy condi
tion Is reported In overy branch of the busi
ness, even the much-despsed one-night
stand showing a desire for tho spoken
drama instead ot screen productions.
There will be many new productions nnd
oompanles on tho rond next season, and the
opening up of one-night stands for attrac
tions will relieve the larger cities of forced
runs of plays that are not a phenomenal hit.
Philadelphia and other cities that demand
a ohanco to sco now things will get tho op
portunity next season, and the pubtlo will
ont only profit by this, but tho managers
will fare bctttcr financially.
Unless tho promised boom hits a snag
between now and September tho theatre
going public will havo no cause for com
plaint about the offerings. Producers nro
arranging to send out many mammoth pro
ductions; the American dramatist will get
his innings, If he has nnythlng worth while
to offer; tho burlesquo end will be olever
and better ; vnudovlllo, with Its many tribu
taries of "big" tlmo and "small" time, will
be much Improved and the new Interna
tional circuit will revive a form of amuse
mont for tho masoeo that will be welcome
In the shape of first-class attractions offered
at a low price ot admission. This clroutt
will have 40 theatres next season, three of
thorn In Philadelphia, and attractions of ex
traordinary merit to offer.
There was but one new production here
this week, that of "Sazus Matasus," pre
sented for tho first time on any stage by
William Harris, Jr.. on Monday night, June
,36, at the Apollo Theatre Tho author of
this new character comedy Is Laurence
Eyre, and Its chief olalm for a hearing con
sists of the fact that all of the sketchy char
actors aro supposed to bo of the colored race.
Into theme and story the author tried to
put an Edward Harrlgan touch, but he
lacked the deftness of that master hand, and
the offering failed to please. While It was
advertlsod strongly as destined for a whole
season's run on Broadway, It Is doubtful If
It will reach that goal for a hearing, much
less a run. But little novelty was Injected
In tho story, tho trite themo of sudden eleva
tion to wealth through the fortunate pur
ohase of a lottery ticket being a threadbare
one.
The ,soene of action is placed at Norfolk,
Vs., for the first act, tho characters at
that place being of the old plantation type.
The lucky turn of the winning ticket comes
at the pxact moment when a New York
confidence man comes down to gather up
coin from unsophisticated people by offer
ing stock In Sazus Matasus, which will
bring untold wealth to all purchasers. By
playing on the Ignorance of some of the
characters and flattering them with stories
of their greatness, ho secures the money
that has been won and takes a father
and daughter to see Now York life. The
second act Is at Cupola Court, an alleged
fashionable apartment house in the metrop
olis. Sazus Matasus proves to be a land
BOheme With lots of sand at low tide and
exceedingly moist when the tide comes In.
.The bubble bursts quickly, and after the
shoep are shorn of their golden fleece they
return to the old plantation In Virginia to
be forgiven for their flight Into society.
While there were many true-to-llfo char
acter sketches and every hue of color from
the octoroon to the darkest shade of the
colored race, there was but little heart In
Interest, and even thot was of a forced kind.
Clever people gave artistic Impersonations
of characters that did not appeal to tho
audiences.

Undoubtedly the chief 'charm of "Ths

solute fidelity to lieach'n popular novel,
Upon which the picture Is based. This not
only applies to Ihn story, but to tho locale
of thejtbook, which, as most Phlladolphlans
know, is Central America end the Panama

Government permission to photograph ths
scenes of "The Ne'erDo-Well'1 In the

Next week patrons of the Stanley wilt

make her scrcon debut. Anna Pennington,
once of Camden, has followed Mao Murray
on to the Paramount program, as the hero
Ino of that oh-Bo-approprlately named ve
hicle "Susla Snowfloko."
A L. Einstein, publicity director of the
Stanley Company, recalls the time Anna
Ponnlngtori was Just beginning to learn
eomo of those dainty dancing steps. He
says!
"I cannot lay claim to any original dis
covery o'f this star, but I, think I was
tho first newspaper man to rccognlxo her
Juvonllo ability and glvo her Individual
mention.
"It happened this way. In the old Phil
adelphia Item I conducted a department
known as the Dancing World, and partic
ular attention was paid to tho annual chil
dren's carnivals. I think It was about 1904
that while attending the annual carnival
of Professor Walter Wroo's Juvenile class
In the Academy of Muslo I was particularly
Impressed by tho beauty, stago presence
and general carriage of ono little maid.
She seemed as much nt home on tho big
and brilliantly lighted stage as In tho par
lor of her parents' homo.
"Later lnsldo tho stage I asked Professor
Wroe, "Who Is that little girl, Walterr
That Is Anna Pennington, of Camden,' ho,
replied,
" TVoIl she Is a decidedly clever girl,', I
said. 'An exceptionally clover ono,' he
agreed. Special mention to, that effect was
mode In my Sunday account of the carni
val. "It was tho next year that Professor
Wroo organized what ho termed Wroo's
Buds, a selected few of his older and clov
erer pupils and secured for them profes
sional engagements at Keith's Theatre and
other vaudeville houses Anna Pennington
was one of tho Buds. Since that time her
progress has been steadily upward.
"And I am proud of having been the one
to give her the first newspaper boost that
she ever received."

Nobody knows what a photoplay director goes through. Nobody but
tho cameraman and this time ho lets it out in his own pictorial wny.
Here wo have Director Lloyd, of the Mofosco Company, worrying his
way through two problems in connection with "Tho Making of Mndda
lcna," a Paramount release to be seen for tho first timo at tho Palace
Monday. In the picture on tho right wo sco Edna Goodrich trying to
portray a deeply emotional scene, while tho borrowed baby in her arms-is
trying to impersonate a howling Apache. Mr. Lloyd jingles a bunch of
keys in an effort to quiot Morosco's youngest actor. In tho picture on
tho left, Mr. Lloyd hns set a musician playing to Forrest Stanley to
summon tho best efforts off tho actor
peril and they aro unprepared to defend
their liberties.
"How Britain Prepared" was brought
over here a short tlmo ago by Mr. Charles
Urban, with the permission of Mr. Bal
four, Lord Kitchener, Lloyd-George, of the'
British War Cabinet. It was shown to
prominent picture Impresarios. They
shrugged their shoulders. It wasn't what
they wanted. No "blood and thunder busi
ness" in it; no "fako" fighting and all
that sort of thing. Betides, they wiuld not
for a moment consider the terms required
to seoure the privilege of showing It in the
United States a certain portion of which
goes Into tho war relief fund of the Allies.
So Mr. Urban about concluded that the
pictures would not be exhibited here, when
by ohance a wide-awake, broad-minded
business man downtown, who had heard
about the film, asked for a private showing.
He brought a dozen men ot his own stamp
with him to' the seance. When the last reel
of the nim had been run off there was only
ono opinion. I
"What will It oost to show this lesson ln
preparedness to America?" he asked.
"One hundred thousand dollars," said Mr.
Urban.
"Done," was the reply. "We'll take It
over. And If we lose all, which, If we
judge the Intelligence and sentiment of the
American public rightly wo can't do, we'll
have tho conscientiousness of having per
formed a patriotloiduty."
Chicago, producers of "The No'er-Do-Well,"
transported to the Isthmus of Panama sev
eral hundred expert players, among them
Wheeler Oakman and Kathlyn Williams,
and visualized the exciting episodes of Rex
Beach's most widely read book in the
exact locations so entertainingly described
by him locations surcharged with atmo
sphere, romance and history.
It is said that nlna out of every ten film
producers In America choose California as
a background for their ploturcs because of
tho boautlful weather and clear sunlight
If this Is truo of California, It Is doubly
true of the Isthmus of Panama and Central
America, where the glare of a never-ceasing
tropical sun renders a clarity and sharp
ness to plotures that must be seen to be
fully appreciated. "Tho Ne'er-Do-Woll" Is
rich In scenes of luxuriant splendor, taken
In Panamanian villages) within tho crum,
bllng walls of century-old Panamanian pris
ons, and along the great dikes and dams of
the Panama Canal, -which will forever re
main a monument to American courage,
skill and daring.
