New York Theaters
Bf PERCY HAMMOND.
New York, Dec. 29.
IT la a habit these days to mutter
against the lack of humor in the
“Broadway” revues. Playgoers in
tend upon hilarity may be captivated
by girls and scenery in the extrava
ganzas, but they are aggrieved by the
meager fun. It is easier, it seems,
for the producers to buy shapes and
colors than it is jokes. Librettists,
though full of other things, have no
store of badinage and waggery.
Bright remarks are so scarce and
so much in demand that quip will
play several theaters in one evening.
It may go on at the Winter Garden
at 9:30, dash around to the Music
Box at 10, and reach the New Amster
dam or the Earl Carrol by 11:15. Some
of them, of course, are too old for
such vigorous exertion, and some too
young. For example, when Miss
Florence Moore In the Music Box
says that “wine flowed like glue” at
one of Mr. Frank Tinney's parties,
that weary jest is through for the
day. On the other hand, Mr. Phil
Baker observes that Mr. Tinney's
motor car has so many mortgages on
it that h* calls it “The Covered Wa
gon.” This one Is too new to get
around much.
Early In the evening at the Music
Box Mr. Baker tells how he and a
friend had an argument over which
one1 should pay the luncheon check,
fumbling through his pockets In il
lustration of the usual gestures. “I
flnnaly had to pay It,” says Mr.
Baker. “Because he out-fumbled
me." If you hurry over to the Ful
ton theater you can hear this again
from the comic lips of Mr. Jack
Hazard In “One Kiss.” A few weeks
ago X announced the discovery of a
funny joke in Miss Dorothy Donnel-'
ly’s “Poppy.” Mr. W. C. Fields, see
ing Miss Emma Janvier wearing a
big bouquet, tells he that she looks
like “a well-kept grave.” In Made
moiselle Delysia’s “Topics of 1923”
Mr. Herbert Corthell employs the
same amusing simile with success.
Many readers jeered at me for having
estimated that wheeze as a weanling;
^nd they were right, for I found it
the other day In Anatole France's
“The Crime of Sylvestre Bonnard.”
In case you are seeking merriment
T think you will discover it in con
siderable quantities at the Music Box.
Any entertainment employing Frank
Tlnney, Florence Moore and Phil
Baker has a good chance to be
laughable. The play has no libretto,
and so the comedians are able to frisk
around in it, unhampered by the ad
dlepates. They and their associates
are humorous enough to sing, at this
late day, "Yes, We Have No Ba
nanas” In burlesque grand opera
fashion, and to make it the funniest
thing In all the current musical
shows. Mr. Tinney travesties the
travelogue lecturers; Mr. Baker, a
handsome fellow, recites keen anec
dotes as he performs upon a con
certina; and Miss Moore, the most
efficient of the lady clowns, commits
many side-splitting pranks. Probably
you are a student of Robert C.
Benchley’s thorough dramatic criti
cisms In “Life.” Whether you are
or are not you will enjoy his quiet
monologue. In satire ef the treasurer
of a charity institution, reading his
annual report.
The Music Box Revue, moreover,
seems as beautiful as possible, with
out being over our heads. Its rich
ness and extravagance often have
a quiet, patrician quality, dignified
and fSgal rather than sensational and
conspicuous. Frequently the ladles In
it ars to be seen without many clothes
on, yet so Innocent and ’lovely are
their diversities that even If you are
of the more spiritual type you may
not be annoyed. Miss Florence
OUenishawn, for Instance, Imper
sonates a Star Fish in one of the
ballets, wearing, as she does, little
except a fin or two and a couple
of scales. Her white and slim reve
lations, however, seem to inspire no
naughty fevers In those who witness
them. Not the least of the decora
tions In the Music Box Revue, by the
way, are those provided by Mr.
Joseph Santley and Miss Ivy Sawyer,
who In becoming habiliments, sing
and dance aristocratically. It is a
great show.
-f>
Olga Petrova’s new drama Is a
TlUty thing called "Hurricane"—per
haps because Its language is so
windy. It is by, for and of Mme.
Petrova, and it represents the life of
rather an unlucky courteean. As Ilka,
i. Texas peasant, Mme. Petrova tlrps
>f the sordid hut life, stabs her cruel
stepfather, absconds to Kansas City
with a commercial traveler and be
omes a prosperous "Little Sister of
he Night.” Afterward she proceeds
to-St. Louis and its lupanars, and a
little later to Miami, Fla., and yet a
.ittle later to New York, where she
grows to be a respectable Interior
decorator. "Then love comes,” ss
the cinemas say. Just as she Is about
to marry John Arkwright, a New
\ ork eoclety man, she discovers that
■he is damaged goods, and she poisons
herself. ... As the curtain fell
upon her miseries the other night at
the Frolic tljeater little Christinas
trees at each side of the proscenium
tit up cheerily. . . . Mme. Petro
va employe a combination’ of all the
Foreign accents excepting Russian. To
many playgoers it is a treat to hear
tier say: ‘‘Doctalre, I have to get up
at .fourr in ze morning to kook ees
l.wrrreafast for eem.”
If you care to see Miss Fay Balnter
iml Henry Hull pretending to be all
aglow with youthful love for each
■ ■flier, Mr. Belasco’s new play at the
Morocco will gratify your whim. Its
name Is "The Other Rose," and It la
i toothsome little honeypot by George
Middleton, son-in-law of Senator J,a
lollette. There are no crimes or
nilserlee In It, and it stops happily
Hut In case you are fond of ferocity
in your romance you may regard
The Other Jtoee” as a bit tame.
After further deep thinking about it
t should say that It Is slender and
Inconsequential, though fragrant. In
other words, It is a pretty thing.
Abe and Julius.
It Is reported that one time Dick
Hohayer, who 1s a scenarist of parts
-three parts and a prologus—applied
10 Julius for a Job.
"You an educated man?” demanded
lullus doubtfully, looking Dirk up
end down.
"Yea sir.” said Mr. Scliayer with Ills
usual modesty.
“Prove It.” said Julius abruptly.
"What shall I do?” asked Mr.
Schayer, losing his customary aplomb.
“Vat do you s’pose?" said Julius
scornfully. "Bey » blg^ wold."

What the Theaters Offer
GUY BATES POST, comes to the
Brandeis for three nights and a
New Years and also a Wednes
day matinee, starting Monday night,
in "The Climax,” in which he appears
as Luigi Golfanti, a music teacher and
composer, a role conceded to rank
with his Impersonation of "The Mas
querader." In it, he ignites the
spark of genius that is a part of the
subconscious mind of every man and
woman, but lies latent in the souls of
the vast multitude, 'tie Is master of
"art"—that manifestation of emotion,
speaking the only language that is
understood by all—irrespective of
creed, nationality, sex or education—
whether the expression be of the
emotion of gladness, sadness, shock
or tears. In Edward J. Locke's
powerful play, "The Climax," Mr.
Post brings into play all the fiflc
qualifications for which he is famous
and makes of the music teacher and
composer, Luigi Golfanti, a living,
breathing personality, who will be
long remembered and whose haunting
music, "The Song of a Soul," will
be fruitful of pleasant memories for
many a year to come.
The real event of the vaudeville
season, and also a momentous occa
sion in theatrical history, occurs
next week at the Orpheum theater,
where McIntyre and Heath appear
in their famous blackface skit, “The
Georgia Minstrels." These renowned
veterans of minstrelsy have played
together for 50 years, making this
the golden anniversary of their stage
partnership. It has been seven years
since McIntyre and Heath played in
vaudeville, so this appearance In their
famous original burnt-cork classic is
in the nature of a double celebra
tion—the return to their favorite
realm of the theater and the golden
anniversary of stage partnership.
"The Wager," possibly the most
hilarious afterpiece ever conceived
for vaudeville, will be presented by
Ray Hughes and Pam, Dotson, John
Miller ami James Mack and Owen
McOiveney. This brilliant offering,
presented by a cast of six natural
bom fun makers, is a burlesque on
the protean art of Mr. McGiveney,
who earlier on the program, presents
his quick-change classic, "Bill Sikes,”
a dramatic episode from Dickens.
Several rounds of old-time rough
house comedy are to be administered
by Miller and Mack. D. Apollon,
known as the wizard of the mandolin,
and one of the greatest Russian
dancers, offers a spectacular novelty
entitled "Bi-Ba-Be.” A trio of talented
girls support him and all are special
ists in a different style of terpsicho
rean art.
Ray Hughee, with Pam, in the
"Fall Guy;" Dotson, the amazing
young streak of dusky lightning, and
“the Flying Hartwells" round out
the eight-act bill. Aesop’s Fables,
Topics of the Day and Pathe News
are the screen offerings.
Comedy situation* run riot In the
well known farce comedy “A Bache
lor's Night" being offered by the
Graves Bros, players at the New
Empress this week.
Roy Klnslow plays the role of “Gll
dy Barnes” a fly-by-night young man
of the metropolis. All the action takes
place in the bachelor apartments of
one "Dick Jarvis” played by Jimmie
Buckley. The entire company ap
pears In various comedy roles and
from beginning to end there Is a
mlrthquake of laughter. Among the
musical Interpolations are “The Red
Hot Blues," "Twelve O'clock at
Night,” "Tell 'Em They Are Beauti
ful,” "You're In Kentucky," and solo
numbers by Harry Allen and Loretta
Kidd In addition to comedy quartet
selections by Messrs. Allen, Hollis,
Buckley and Weber.
The usual four performances will

the night shows begin at 8:00 and
11:15. Four performances rule on
Tuesday, New Year's dhy.
Photoplay attractions Include Glen
Hunter In "Youthful Cheaters," a
delightful qfimedy drama and the
eighth atory of the new "Fighting
Blood" series.
A bill of comedy vaudeville designed
to greet the New Year with a smile
and laugh, Is provided by the World
theater this week for the Initial 1924
program. Featured is William Wes
ton and company of five Including
Miss Poppy Chadwick, In the unique
musical offering "The Attorneys."
Musical letter files, bookcases, type
writers and other novelties Inter
spersed with comedy chatter make
this one of the oiit-nf the ordinary
productions of the year. An Ameri
canized satire, "When the Bell Rings,”
Is the contribution of Chabot and
Tortlne who gomhlne Instrumental
music, singing, chatter and eccentric
comedy for 15 minutes of entertain
nient. "The Good Little Bad Boy,"
In which Hldney Landfiehl offera a
pot pourrl of fun with musical trim
mings. The Barkers are extraordinary
athletes and their performance Is at
once novel and thrilling. "Hello," Is
the title of the act purveyed by Ward
and Raymond. Rudlnoff, Inventor of
smoko pointings and well known
whistler and mimic, offers another
unique attraction ori the current bill.
Arthur Hays on the World organ In
troduces an original conception of
his version of "House of David Blues.”
An extra show will he given at the
World New Year’s eve. the final per
formance stalling at 11:15 p. m. An

NEW YEAR is coming, with 11s
many changes and develop
ments. Yet a New Year with
ire a promise for more and bet
ter music and musical Jlfe than any
which has yet dawned upon this com
munity.
For the "people" have slowly yet
gradually turned their attention to
music. The "people" whom some
would loudly have you believe to be
Interested1 In nothing but indecent
shows and movies, poor jazz, prefer
ably poorly played, burglaries, boot
legging and prizefights—the pebple
have been definitely supporting good
musical enterprises and making more
of them possible.
Thousands of them have attended
concerts at the Auditorium four or
five times a year for at least two
years, and they go In hundreds to
the Brandeis and other places for
other musical events.
Besides, there are a number of peo
pie who are either teaching music,
taking music, or otherwise making
their living In connection with it.
There are a vast number of;repro
ducirig machines sold to the people
annually, and millions of records of
good music.
The people need no more be pic
tured as a rough, uncouth body mak
ing a loud Matnstreety noise all the
time, for that type Is rapidly lielng
consigned to the minority.
There are enormous classes of fair
ly refined and educated young people
graduated Into the community front
the high schools and colleges twice a
year, who do not shed their Ideals up
on graduation, but rather take them
along. The interest In music, paint
ing, and other branches of artistic
endeavor is more and more in evl
denee. There seems to be an under
current of artistic feeling In every
thing, Even kitchen utensils and coal
buckets and other plebeian things
which have t>ecn considered purely
utilitarian, are beginning to show a
touch of beauty In color and line, to
galdden the eyes of those who an
able and willing to see It. Who
knows, the time may come when the
person who does not care for art In
some line or who does not respond to
it. will be considered a “nut" rather
than the one who does, and who will
actually make material sacrifices to
gratify it?

During the past nine years, while
T have been music editor, Omaha has
shown a noticeably increasing inter
est In music.
AA'here there was formerly but the
Tuesday Musical course of visiting ar
tists, which made the promoters
scramble to get together a large
enough audience to pay out, this
course now always draws a full house,
and the business women's division
of the Chamber of Commerce also at
tracts large audiences to the Au
ditorium for a aeries of excellent con
certs. Where we formerly had one
or two outside concerts under one or
other local auspices, there are now
a great many, some of which pay
out and some of which do not. In
proportion to the number of concerts
we have, the standard Is unusually
high.

prominent artists, without having to
go to the larger cities for the privi

fer the voice or violin recital. In
Omaha the musical public Is much
more cosmopolitan, for It. Is the same
public which supports all musical
events, and which In this way be
comes generally familiar with five ex
ponents of all of them.
Besides, in the last few years, a
great many local musical clubs have
been organized, and frequqpt concerts
have been given at which local artists
have been ^featured. The Friends of
Music is one of the largest clubs
which offers opportunity for the lo
cal artist to be favorably given a
hearing. A ni^nber of new local peo
ple have c#me to the front, and are
doing excellent things in their line.
Among these there are two young
singers who have had their entire
training in Omaha who are an out
standing credit to themselves and
their teachers. These are Mabel Al
len Smalles, and Harriet Clark Hel
gren. Each has studied for years
with her respective teacher and with
no one else,, yet In the use of the
voice and In interpretation they are
able to bold their own anywhere. We
have two string quartets, and many
excellent instrumentalists and vocal
ists in our community, who are able
to give interesting public appear
ances, We have many good pipe or
Kan and choral organizations, and me
annual aerie, of organ recitals by
Mrs. K. K, Zabriskie at the First
Presbyterian church which are large
ly attended, besides oecasional reci
j tals by visiting organists.
Musical life In Omaha has been
| keeping pace, in spite of the setback
of the war, and unsettled times that
followed it. And In looking over It.
! the present musical editor is glad to
1 have had the opportunity to have
’ bad a part In it. So,cheerio for the
new year and the promise of even
! more and better music It may bring.
A big fund has been raised for the
| St. Louis Symphony orchestra in that
icily. The guarantee exceeds $325,000
j for three years, which promises much
in the way of symphonic music. Of
this sunt over $100,000 Is pledged for
the first year. While,this is not very
much for a symphony orchestra, this
is said to be by far the largest
amount ever given to the cause in
that city.' The seat sale Is also far
in advance of that for any previous
season. The St. Louis Symphony or
chestra has been under the director
ship of Rudolph Oanz for the last f|W
seasons, and this popular pianist
conductor will undoubtedly give splen
did music returns for this evidence
of faith in him, and generosity to a
worth while organization.
