By PERCY HAMMOND.
New York. Oct. 4.
THE army, ttie navy, the district
attorney, the mayor and the po
lice all were mobilized last week
Ip make publicity for “What Price
tilery.'' As the result of their min
istrations the newspapers printed
reams diout the play, and at least
three ,,f its numerous cusswords were
banished from the dialogue. It was
raid that the navy objected to the
entertainment because it defamed the
Halted States Marine corps, picturing
that ."/lire legion as a band of un
vi very vagabonds given to strong
dr nk and bad language. Through Its
influence recruiting had been halted,
nr I so it hail’ become a menace to our
national defense. . . . “What
Price Olory” is, of course, a little con
t aiptuous of the Marine corps. But
the navy itself is noted for its de
rision of the "soldiers of the sea,"
and you probably have heard the
army express Its low opinion of what
Hie Marines did in Belleau wood.
However, the drama, as usual, em
erged victorious from Its little shindy
with the authorities', and “What Price
Olory’’ continues to distend the civil
ian voculabory with what Bret Harte
called “new and startling forms of
objurgation.''
Miss Eda Ferber's story of “Old
Man Minick," ns dramatized by the
authefl- and Oeorge S. Kaufman, is
the most delightful comedy of the
season. Very cheerily it tells of what
happened after Mr. Minick, aged 70,
went to live with his son and daugh
ter-in-lnw in their modest flat on the
South Side of Chicago. Mr. Minick
(O. P. Heggie) is not a teary patriarch
thrust upon the charity of his son.
He is, rather, a vivacious old young
ster with no idea whatsoever that he
is lagging superfluous. Blithely un
aware that there is a difference be
l ween his times and those in which
he finds ltimself, he becomes a med
dlesome nuisance. He dabbles in the
lives of the young folks and upsets
all their domestic arrangements. He
stays too long in the bathroom of
mornings, and he interferes in his
son's business affairs and in a meet
ing of his daughter-in-law's funny wo
man’s club. Though a likable fellow,
neither officious nor a busybody, he
is—old—and doesn't know It. Mr.
Heggie in an admirable performance
acts him Just that way.
Mr. Mtnlck’s children love him pa
tiently and Insist that he remain with
them, but the old fellow finally comes
to understand the Impossibilities of
the situation. Does he shuffle path
etically over the hills to tha poor
house? Not at all. He packs his straw
mitoase, calls a taxi and moves
across Washington Park to a luxuri
ous old man's home—where among
Ids ancient cronies he can lead his
nvn life. . . . The comedy Is full
>f humorous, natural detail, and It Is
played by Miss Phyiiss Povah, Miss
Antoinette Perry, Frederic Burt and
Jlhers in a way to make you proud
-. of the Actors’ Equity association.
Perhaps, in the words of a great
Title, who died in a German insane
sylum. It is "human, all too hu
man.’’ Nevertheless, they tell me that
it is "selling out” every night. I
.ope so.
Miss Tna Claire Is having a grand
lime breezing through the pretty
shallows of "Grounds for Divorce"
ill the Empire. This Is 10 comedy by
Earnest Vnjda, the Hungarian, who
is telling us so many naughty stories
these days that he threatens to be
eome wiiat Mrs. Oliver Herford classi
fies as a "Room-clearer.” Miss Claire,
as a lovely young divorcee, stirs up
the sexly tepldtties of the play like
a swizzle-stick In flat champagne,
and makes them effervescent. Now
that Mrs. Fiske Is about to furl her
sails In the restful harbor of Mrs.
Malaprop, Miss Clarle, .1 think, be
comesour First Comedienne. At least
she is the first of the comediennes
now operating in this lugubrious vi
cinity.
Tn "Fata Morgana" this same Mr.
Vnjda tells of an Innocent country
lad who wa-s betrayed by a wicked
city-woman with store clothes and evil
Instincts. In "The Little Angel," his
new play, he reverses the situation
and relates how a Hungarian ingenue
was overcome by a sophistlcicated
man of the world. The circumstances
of that dehacle are a bit phenomenal.
Anita has been reared by her virginal
aunt (Miss Claire Eames) to know
nothing of biology. Though flower
like, she Is not familiar with the
habits of the flowers. Thus ill-equip
ped to go to the Mayor's ball, she
does so, and with obstetric conse
quences. Overcome by heat between
the dances, she swoorns in the eonser
vatory. just after a handsome young
baronet Introduces himself to her.
. . . Soon after the ball It Is discover
ed that unconsciously Anita has be
come a little enceinte. The ensuing
comedy Impinges on the question
whether her Indelicate condition Is
the result of Innocence or the cos
mic urge.
Since the time of "The Little
Angel," In 1S40, and the place a
suburb of Budapest, few of us New
York, first-nighters were aide to solve
the problem. The play is a production
uf Brock Pembefton, snd advansed
Kansan; and it is estimated by the
experts as so-so.

Historical dramas ouch as "That

collaboration by Mr. Farrar, editor

American Folk Song Is Being
Neglected Says Gus Edwards
k __ f
"What America needs most, musi
cally,” says Gus Edwards, producer
of the annual song revue which keeps
the musical comedy stage plentifully
supplied with stars, "Is a more gen
uine type of original, national folk
songs. We have too few of these,
and they are aot justly appreciated.
"I consider Stephen Foster the
greatest writer of this class of song,
with Paul Dresser next and then
Ethelbert Nevin. I can't put myself
in this category, though I have at
tempted to do a little along this line.
The United States has such great
ideals, its patriotism is so pronounced,
that the spirit of song and music,
which is one of the greatest means
of increasing patriotism, should be
made a national art. Song writers
should get busy on this theme and
bring into the world music just as
famous as ‘Star-Spangled Banner,
'Suwanee River' and 'Dixie.' ’’
Gus Edwards, besides having an
nually produced such attractive song
revues as that which he is present
ing at the Orpheum theater tilts
week, is also a well-known composer
of such hits as "School Days,” "Sun
bonnet Sue," "Mamie” and “Goodby,
Little Girl, Goodby.” In his theories
of American music he does not mean
that It must come from the conBerva
torles and opera houses. Ih fact, the
old Bowery of his early days was the
cradle for the typical American song
of the period.
Mr. Edwards spent many of his
boyhood days on the Bowery. He
was a poor little lad working In a
cigar factory on the east side when
he first conceived the Idea of writing
songs. Strange tunes used to flit
through his mind, and he decided to
turn the haunting strains Into money.
His first song, "Stella,” after having
been refused by every publisher In
the city, was finally sold for the Im
mense sum of $7.50. His great song.
"School Days,” which has come to be
an American classic, has been trans
lated Into many foreign tongues—
even the Chinese school children sing
it. It Is estimated that Mr. Edwards
has earned nearly a million dollars
from his song royalties.

Joseph Regan, Street
Singer of Irish Songs,
Native of Boston
___/
Attention Is now focused on Joseph
Regfin, the young singing actor whom
Augustus Pitou has secured on a
long term contract and will present
here a new three-act romantic drama,
"Heart O' Mine,’’ written by Harry
Chapman Ford.
Joseph Regan was born In Boston,
27 years ago. He is a graduate of the
Sherwin school and in his senior year
took part in an amateur minstrel
show given at Boston college hall. He
literally "stopped the show” with his
beautiful voice, and having always
had a strong liking for the theater
he then and there decided to adopt
the stage as his profession. He placed
himself under the tutelage of Big.
Gilliaume Novello, Boston vocal
teachdb, with whom he made rapid
strides. Subsequently, he studied at
the Goldenburg school of music and
dramatic art, in Cincinnati, later go
ing to Italy, to Naples, and took a
course In opera with Sig. Jose Niohle,
one of Italy's foremost maestri.
Upon his return to America. Mr.
Regan for a time engaged In concert
work, singing In concerts, recitals,
oratorios and with orchestras through
the United States and Canada, In the
New York production of "Silks and
Satins" he assumed the leading tenor
role and scored an instantaneous suc
cess. Next came two seasons over
the Keith and Orpheum circuits, and
then he came under the notice of
Augustus Pitou.
Mr. Regan's voice Is a pure, dra
matic tenor, and Is beyond question
the finest that has ever been heard
In the field of Irish drama. His
glorious voice, with Its beauty of tone,
wonderfully smooth, full and rich, and
tempered to the mood of his song. Is
one to which the heart can open. He
has a singular rich endowment in
personal poise, magnetic stago pres
ence, expressive sympathy and, above
all. has that Important requisite,
youth, combined with a virile style
of acting that is in keeping with hla
excellent physique and will make him
good to look upon when he appears
as the hero of a romantic inel< dy
play.
Recently In one delivery 176,0(10
feet of dressed lumber was brought
to Universal City by train of 40 six
ton motor trucks. The company from
which It was obtained declares that
this is a national record for one
shipment. It is to be used for com
pleting the steel stage nnd sets being
constructed at Universal City for
"The Phantom of the Opera." in
which Lon Chaney will play the prin
cipal role.
Anna Q. Nilsson Is featured with
Lewis H. Stone in “Inez From Holly
wood,” the Ham K. Itork production
soon to be released.

Phil Itosen, the director of the fa
mous “Abraham Lincoln’’ picture, hae
signed ^ contract to direct another
picture for Warner Bros. His next
production will be “The Bridge of
Sighs" from the popular book by
Charles K. Harris.
Phil Rosen’s next picture for War
ner Bros., “The Bridge of Sighs,'*
vvill be written in continuity form by
Hope Loring and Louis Duryea
Leighton. The remarkable work of
the Loring and Leighton team on
Rosen's last picture, "This Woman,"
brought forth the heartiest prabe i
from the director. /
Bottles used by bootleggers are no
more the “real thing" than are th«.r
contents. J. Stuart Blackton, who is
producing “The Beloved Brute" for
Vitagraph, has discovered this. He
is experiencing difficulty in finding
real liquor containers and authentic
bar fixtures with which to picture
the frontier cafe scene*.

store tbi* week will receive a radio
log chart free. Those who purchase
