DRAMA "Roads of Destiny" Shows What Might Have Happened Where would you liuve been today if you had chosen a different occupation, lived in a different city, met different .people, followed your own inclinations at times rather than,, listen to the advice of friends, relatives, parents, enemies? Such is the Idea back of "Roads of Destiny," the play with Florence Heed iu its principal role, which comes to the Lyric Monday. "Roads of Destiny" is an "if" drama, and it has met with success because men and women, never tii of wonill.rinR wnat mlKilt hve " .... , ... " .,, happened to them and their lives it - - i things had been different. "Roads of Destiny" was innde luto ploy form by Chauning Pollock from the romantic and thrilling story by O. Henry. It tells the role of a youth who sets out to learn his destiny by traveling first iu one direction and then in the other. Thus David Marsh, the hero, desirous of leaving his weakling brother free to marry the girl whom both love. Is shown in two episodes of what-might-i have-been bad he actually left. In each of these encodes, as well an in ' the finale, which portrays what actually did happen to IJnvld, the play proves that David was destined to marry Ann, I no mutter w'" - - he chose to lollow when he started out In life. JOE SANTLEY, FARMER Demi-tasse Truck Patch Fails to Beat Market Among other achievements iu tho career of Joseph Snntley, the young leading man in "She's A Good Fellow" nt the Forrest, was the acquisition of Ivy Sawjjr for a wifo. Another of his recent posHessious was a family homestead at Great Neck with a make believe garden. During the long summer days when Santley nnd his wife were not appear ing together In "She's A Good Fel low." the young husband devoted his time to coaxing vegetables from his demi-tasse garden. He laid in every kind of gardening implement advertised on the market, and was with difficulty restrained by wlfie from purchasing a tractor to plough the tiny patch, Mrs, Ivy Sawyer Santley says her spouse produced vegetables of a market value of If3,39 at an overhead of 10.40, to suy nothing of the labor.

TLORENCE PEFO "ROADS of DE-STINY" Lviric." A GENUINE "SNICKERSNEE" Jeff de Angelis Has the Real Thing n "Mikado" The "snickersnee" carried by Jef ferson dc Angelis as Ko-Ko in "The Mikado," at the Chestnut Street Opera House, is not n theatrical property, but n real Samurai hnri-karl weapon for merly the property of a revered ances tor of liana Shimoziimi, the Japanese prima donna of the Gallo Comic Opera Company. It wns lent to Mr. de An gelis under the dire threat that if any thing hnppened to it, the shade of ninny generations of Daimns would haunt the agile comedian until his dying dav. Needless to saj, the sword is cher ished ns the apple of comedian's eye nnd Mr. de Angelis is not a spiritualist either. Mollle Williams Once In Chorus Mollle Williams seems always able to secure the pretty chorui girls for her shows. Her "Greatest Show" will be seen at the People's next week. Chorus girls are strong for Miss Williams, win is the only woman producer In bur lesque. It Isn't because of anything that she is today . biit of what she. used to be. for Mollle Williams was once a chorus girl. Some stnrs try to blot thnt page out of their history, but Miss Williams doesu't. The chorus like her, because they cau fed that she was once one of them, and can under stand their moods ami views.

Mrs. Fiske swenrs better thnn any ninii iu the piny, for "cussing" was one of this southern belle's "cutest pm lor tricks." The char acter of this southern woman around which the play "Mis Nelly of N'Or leans" was written, is founded on Sirs. Fiske's recollections of a famous belle of St. Louis. Although Mrs. Fiske wasonlv a child when this belle was lu her popularity, the romance of the character has always appealed to her. typifying a period of leisure and elegance which still exerts a strong fnscinntioii. And it Is this fascination which Mrs. Fiske in the second act of "Mis' Nelly of N'Orlenns" casts like a magic spell when blie stages a ghost party on the night of Mardi Grns. "Let's play nud pretend, let's make-believe," she snyH, "It is 1880 again'" m the ntmosphere of make-believe, the belle of 'Sft once more rules supreme. Throughout the second act Mrs. Fiske recreates tills tomboy belle of '8ft. dnzzllng her erst while fiance with her brilliancy, as tonishing him with her hoydenlsh tricks, and captivating him with her magnetism aud irresistible charm until the barriers arc broken down and they "live happily ever nfter."

Mr. Welch promised in uiivnnce innr. ne would introduce uovet ties at frequent intervals.
