"Irene" Is a musical comedy which has had prolonged runs both In New York and London, In both of which cities It Is stlU belntr played Judging from the reception accorded the piece last night. It might fairly look forward to the same success here. It Is not often that a mu sical comedy meets with a better greet ing, and It Is still moro rarely that It so well deserves it. In costume and scenic effects It amply fulfills the limit less demand Imposed by the taste of the day In such things. Musically It Is pleasing and there are several numbers hlch lmply Insist upon being whistled and hummed by the departing audience: and when a musical comedy makes that effect It has achieved the dearest wishes of Its sponsors. "My Sweet Little Alice Blue Gown," "We're Getting Away With It" and the "Irene O'Dare song are threo such tuneful triumphs, and they can be expected from every phonograph ani player piano In the city before long.

The performance bears all the earmarks of a metropolitan offering and leaves nothing to be desired in the way of staging. There is a real plot running through the two acts, with plenty of new songs and comedy bits sprinkled throughout. A well-balanced cast gathered from musical comedy and vaudeville has plenty to do.

"Daddy Dumpllna" Makes Sure Ap peal to Sentiment and Emotions Lyric There were a great many wet handkerchiefs In the house last night ; nlso much suspicious coughing, with occasional tension-wrought laughs, all betokening a deep Interest and sympathy on the part of the audience for the sen timental little play, "Daddy Dumpllns," being unfolded on the other side of the footlights. And that. In the last analysis. Is tho criticism which counts. On this bas's Earl Carroll haH every reason to con gratulate himself on the possession of a very real hit In this adaptation of George Barr McCutcheon's "Mr. Bln Rle." With an Idea containing a heart In terest not unlike that of "Daddies," Mr. Carroll has oolved three acts of attrac tive sentiment, sometimes verging on tho mawkish, but managing to Mrlke the bullseyo of popular fancy every time. Rotund and Jolal Maclyn Arbuckle Is the central figure, with an assortment of several children to share his honors Mr. Arbuckle Is a skilled veteran of the stage, who puts reality Into a stuffed fig ure. nnd tho children lisp and declaim with sufficient ability to cause motherly ladles to exclaim, "Aren't thev cute?" But after all Is said and "done, this play about n man who reads Dickens's "Christmas Carol" to his fam'ly everv Christmas and there are a lot of meii who still do Is an appealing one.

Four con firmed bachelors meet In n convivial class reunion and agree to continue the'r state of single blessedness so long as they shnll live. But tho great world war hns Just begun, and In the midst of tholr Jollification there comes a lctte from tho father of n little girl to the. leading member of the club asking him to take charge of his orphan, aa ho knows he Is about to die. Then other demands nre made on tho coterie of bachelors to nld children. Eventually they capitulate nnd become "war dad dies, later falling In loo and forfeiting their bonds ngalnst breaking their vow of remaining single. Stanley 'The Love Expert" Is one df the best Constance Talmadge produc tions offered on a local sllversheet for somo time. David Klrkland deserves praise for tho excellence of his direction. The team of Emerson and Loos Is re sponsible for the delightful Idea behind It. There Is real entertainment In this piece, and It comes as a good match for the extra added musical features ren dered by capable artists under the per sonal direction of Frank Buhler. Lmlly Stokes Hagrar Is the operatic soloist. Tno expertness with which the con stance diagnosis Is given easily wins for her tho title of a lovo expert. In the tinting of the flushed face of the victims thero Is credit for Olher Morris, the camera man. Tho titles by Emerson and Loos win many laughs What more delightful Idea than having a girl enter the home of an nunt nnd proceed to mix up her romance with the young man who must support his sis ters? She prescribes that the aunt must be married. Then Bho manages to take the entire fnmlly down to Palm Beach, where each Is pierced with the arrow of Cupid. In the end tho hcrolno gets the man for herself and arranges that the nunt shalt marry another. Miss Talmadge has not hart a better role, and she gives a thoroughly good performance. Arnold Lucy Is excellent ns her father, while Natalie, Bister of tho star, mnkes a fine nppearance nnd will no doubt soon be In plays of hor own. Palaee "The Jailbird" might havo been prepared for Charles Ray, for Its author Is Julian Josephson, who has supplied many of that player's best ma terial. However, It Is well played by Douglas MacLean, who realizes the big possibilities of the character. On the spoken stage ono would look for the name of George M. Cohan ns author. Lloyd Ingmham directed the pleco with fine results. The Jailbird Is a youth who escapes by donning the coat of the warden and passes out with the visitors. He Is sweeping tho floor nt the time tho idea comes to him. His prison clothes are hung In a closet. Making his way to friends, he finds n letter lenvlng nn estate to him That necessitates his going to a small tonn and there ho find the estate Is a smnll newspaper which Is being edited by a charming girl. His pal nnd nnother mnn contrive to wnkc up tho place nnd eventually they "dn cover" oil It so develops that oil really Is gushed from their supposed fake well, nnd nil ends that way except that the boy returns to the Jail to servo his un finished sentoncc.
