prevalent thumbs down nttltudi of the
theatregoers forced nn abtindoiumiit of
this bort of pioduction on tho part nt
the producers. Then followed the scuts
of plays with themes rellKlu'-ly up to
date, until the uccei. of "Mllc-tones"
Kava prnof that the period or costume
play still was popular, and that enough
and not too many of these productions
was what was required.
The cohtume play has iu merits, be
c.iuiio people llko to tec others "dressed
up" nnd arc content now and then to
revert back to the scenes of, say, a cen
tury ago. And also, tho coHtume play
by Its theatrical nature Is true to the
traditions of tho theatre. OfUnthncs It
affords" relief from the consideration of
preaent-day problems.

Why?
At one time It may have been true
that It was a strain on the eyes, but
that is a thlnB of the past. Years
airo the pictures were not up to their
present status of elllciency, and the
dim used to be run through the ma
chine at men a rapid into that the flK
ures seemed blurred and the pictures
.displayed streaks. In thee days If n
picture shows streaks It Is because of
old stock upon which the film is printed
or tho us of a worn-out film The
avornce life of a negative Is abodt
thirty das, nnd when a pioduction la
shown longer than that it Is apt to be
streaky
Many eye specialists are of the opin
ion that the movies do not hurt the tyes,
usil they recommend that the spectator
watch the entire screen Instead of fo
nislnff the attention upon one object
Pity the poor censors whose duty com
pels them to look at thousands of feet
of film each day.
When the movies were advertised as
being in so many reels Instead of as
productions, It was easy to tell Just
how fast tho pictures could be run
through the machine. It should take
about fifteen minutes for the projection
of the acrage reel of film, this being
about 1000 feet. A foot of film con
tains sixteen small pleture-B, and In tho
nerago production there are 80,000

FRANK MelNTYRE and Hex Beach
were walking In opposite directions
m New York one day recently. Both
wero bound for dinner; thereforo they
wero In n hurry. Near Forty-eccond
itreet nnd Broadway they collltled. For
a moment they glared at each other.
"If you happened to be somo one else,"
said Frank, "I'd put you on our bark."
"Bah !" replied Bex, "you're too fat
to fight."
Like a flash Frank's eyes brightened.
"Too fat to fight," he fta'd ; "wouldn't
that be a good title for a picture,"
"It certainly would," agreed Ilex.
"I'll write it and you will play tho star
role."
That was six weeks ago. And now
"Too Fat to Fight," with Frank Mchi
tyre in the lead, haB been filmed as nn
outcome of that chance meeting.
THE Y, 51. C. A. has commissioned
the Sellg Polyscope Company to film

director of the enterprise, announces
that nearly I.OOO.ooo people virtually

Overcame Parental Objections 'to
Career Only Through Deception
When Alma Tell, who plays the lead
ing role In 'The Eyes of Youth," want
ed to take to the stage In her early
youth, fhe met with vigorous objections
from her parents. Miss Tell had a
younger sister with similar aspirations
and the two girls decided to become ac
cesses, despite parental objections.
The Misses Tell were sent to London
where they were scheduled to attend a
music conservatory for one year. Arriv
ing In England they spurned the music
conservatory and enrolled in a dramatic
school. For one year while their nar-n'
believed the girls were "polishing
Wagner, Beethoven ana Liszt, the s

girls returned from England they con

sometimes their odd fancies play off at

counter to the time-honored superstition
of the stage.
Robert Hilliard. who begins an en

ordinary tilth's he Is quite as superhtl

In one thing he is very much like
President Wilson, and thnt Is In his

John Charles Thomas, now playing a
ratline role In "Maytlme," nt the Shu-
bcit Theatre, has won n reputation as
a, singer of no mean ability, but there
are few persons who know that ho is
also nn enthusiastic gvmnast. He de
iiies much r.f his spare time to physical
culture and thus keeps In trim con
stantly. "I have discovered that voice culture
Is also aided bv physical culture when
scientifically followed," says Mr. Thomas.
"If I omit my dally exercises my voice
Is Invarlnbly affected thnt evening;
only slightly, of course, nnd probably
not noticeable to the audience, but I
discern a difference. However. It Is ob

"CAREER" NO LONGER f
A BAR TO MARRIAGE
Ethel Barrymore Finds the
Stage No Hindrance to a
Beautiful Rome Life
It used to be accepted tin the truth
that for a woman to earn tho wngeg of,
n man called for tho sacrifice of all her
Ideals ns a woman. Just why gender
should bo attached to the dollar never
was satisfactorily explained, but never
theless the old Idea prevailed thai a
"csrter" for n woman signified tha
abandonment of those "finer things."
which nre woman's. For her to marry
would Interfere with her caroer; a
family would be n bar to fam. ,,
This Idea hns been refuted and now
women are freely entering tha profes
sions. It no longer Is uncommon for
married women with families to work
out careers as teachers, or again on tho
stage. Such a woman is Ethel Barry
more, or Mrs. Russel Qrlswold Colt, aa
sho Is known In private life, Ethel
Barrjmore on the stage worka out her
career. As Mrs. Colt she comes horns
to caress the baby nnd piny with her
other two children. One could not find
n more beautiful domestic picture than
she presents when she Is in this domettlo
world that pleases her most.
In her domestlo life Ethel Barrymor
Is the wife of Lieutenant Russel) Qrit
wold Colt, of the aviation corps, and
therefore the daughter-in-law of Samuel
Pomeroy Colt, of Providence, president
of the United States Rubber Company.
Her three delightful children are Samuel
Pomeroy, named for his paternal grand
father; Ethel Barrymore and the baby,
John Drew.
There are three generations of dis
tinguished stago ancestry behind these
children. Mr. and Mrs. John Drew, of
Philadelphia, well known to the play
goers of an earlier day. were their
great-grandparents. Their maternal
grandparents wero Maurice Barrymore
and Georgia Drew Barrymore. John
Drew Is their great uncle, and the pop
ular John and Lionel Barrymore are)
among the children's urtcles.
WILL ROGERS AS A LOVER
Lariat-Throwing Wit a Wooer' in
Now Film
No one could rightfully accuse Wilt
Rogers of being a Lothario. But tho
lariat-throwing wit proves an ardent
lover In the name role of "Laughing?
Bill Hyde." tho Rex Ilcnch-Goldwyn
picture, which comes to the Stanley
Theatre all next week.
When Bill Hyde (Will Rogers) finds
n burly rowdy making insulting remarks
to Ponotah, a half-breed girl In an
Alaskan settlement, he gives htm a
sound thrashing and receives Pcnotah'm
thanks. Then sho tells him thnt she Is
half owner In the Aurora Borealls mine,
but that Slayforth, the man In charge,
is trying to cheat her out of her share.
BUI is an escaped convict, but he vows
that no mnn can rob a friendless girl
If ho can prevent It. So he sets about
to get for the girl what rightfully be
longs to her. He finds It hard plugging,
but finally makes Slayforth settle in
full with Ponotah.
His efforts In her behalf lead Ponotah
to love him, nnd one day she asks Bill:
"When are you going to ask me to
marry you? I love vnll nnrl vn, tnee me
I feel sure you do."
"Might bo somethln" In that but I'd
make a hum husband," BUI replies,
thinking of his past. But BUI Is really
nara nit, anu It isn't long before ho
asks Ponotah to share his lot with him.
Mr. Thomas says further that in or-
er to relieve the tremendous strain of
even light opera singing the entire body
must alternately 'have due rest and
proper exercise. In other w&Tds, a mere
massaging of the muscles or the throat
would not suffice If the general nhvslcal
condition were not of the best.
"My first advice to vocal aspirants
is to divide the attention Into two equal
parts, one to the development of the
voice nnd the other to the perfecting of
physical powers," ho says.
