"It's th little thtiurs that count" wnrhles

JJ - matter of tho song's title, for tho little
7' jaoDn sin counts ior as mucn as any ono
' In the Anna Held show except the Blur
i Sylvia did not start out In llfo with the
Idea of becoming a musical-comedy actress
oh, dear, no something much more
artistic ; namely, a concert pianist
At the age of fle, when most .children
are busily engaged with their dolls, petite
Bylvla was diligently practicing hor piano
forte) lessons. Iter little legs were not long
nough to roach the pedals, no her father,
a well-known Urookln musical director, de
vised an attachment for his daughter's right
foot which connected with the pedals In such
way that Sylvia could secure tha proper
melodic results. Of course, tha little chit's
fingers were too short to reach an oc(ae,
nd here her father found that his mechani
cal genius was balked, for he could not
devise extensions for Sylvia's digits.
However, with increasing age little Miss
Jason's fingers grew, until at the ago of ten
he was ablo to play octaes brilliantly.
At this period tho llttlo lady wan known all
over the neighborhood whoro she Ihed as
a. "wundcrklnd," and no -musical affair was
considered completo without at least three
piano solos by this Infant prodigy. Her
career as n, child plaajst culminated In a
recital In Caroeglo ll.ni, New York, where
she was tha winner of an abeoluto triumph,
her Chopin numbers coming In for tho en
thusiastic pralBo of the musical critics.
In view of the fact that Sylvia Jason's
father was an Important Individual In
vaudeville circles, she naturally became In
terested in stage Ufa and eventually went
Into vaudeville, appearing with Harry Tlghe,
the light comedian of the Anna Held com
pany In a. 'two act." Inasmuch as Harry
Tlgha is well mer six feet In height and
correspondingly big, little Sylvia resembles
ft midget in comparison, as she measures
i but four feet eight Inches from toes of her
tiny feet to tho crown of her pretty 'head
ORCHESTRA TO GO
ON TOUR
There will be no concerts by the Philadel
phia Orchestra on Friday afternoon and

part of Gullmant's symphony In D minor

Thero lias been a chango In the attitude
of Americans toward many things, and the
purltnnlcal spirit Is much leas nunlfest to
day than It was a scoro of years ago. This
Is manifest especially with regard to rep
resentations of tho Saviour ns n living
being, ln "Intolerance," the Griffith film
spectacle nt tho Chestnut Street Opera
llouso, the Saviour walks among tho peo
ple, and Ills presence Inspires revcrenco
only Thero Is no feeling that a representa
tion of tho Nnzarcno should bo resented.
Yot a few jears ago It would likely liavo
been Impossible to show such n fljuro In n
spoctaclo without arousing protests from
thousands of well meaning people.
When Mr. Griffith decided to make scenes
In Judea a part of his spectacle, ho was
doubtful ns to tho advisability of Introduc
ing the figure of Christ. Then ho recalled
that nbout ten years ago I'opo Plus X had
approved the production In Italy and else
whero of nn opera called "John the liaptlst "
This opera was composed by a priest and In
ono sceno the Saviour not only appeared,
but was required to Intone un important
solo Don I'llio, tho composer, deeded tho
orchestra at public performances of this
work
Tho passion play at Ohorammergati at

but a reproduction of this spectarlo as

however, motion pictures of tho pusslon
plav were shov n In tliN country It may
be leineinbered, too, that for a tlmo it
specially posed passion play reptoductlon
was shown on screens and without protest
of any moment
Krom time to time them have been pro
tests made against thentrhal performances
In which the figure of Christ might nppear

In the case of "Hannelc," a dream play by
Oerhart Hauptmnnn, tho famous German
dramatist Hauptmann was visiting this
country nt tho first performance of his play
