NOTU of verltablo Inspiration
rings through the world ol the
theater Just now. He vibrant
chord was heard In Umiiha
when the Krandeia opened its
doors for the season laat Sun
day nliftit. Although the audience then
ass-eniMe-l was not tin largest ever noted
at the pretty thrater, It was one of the
most responsive, and the reception It Rave
tho pluy and the players 13 Indicative of
the public's willingness to concede proper
endorsement to the meritorious on the
stage. On the following evenings the at
tendance was such as to he fairly profit
able, which Is also a good Indication. The
play, "Milestones," is one of the finest
examples of modern comedy, and Its re
ception is the most concrete answer pos
sible to those managers who Justified the
purveyance of the pornographic play by
tho mildewed statement, "It is what the
public wants." The practical disappear
ance of the drama of dirt and the reap
pearance of the wholesome type is proof
positive of the fart that the public does
not want the one and does want the
other. What is noted in Omaha la true
all over the country, and hope that a
better day is at hand seems warranted.
Rome plays of little worth are still being
exploited, but these that magnified, or at
best merely exhibited th deplorable
viclousnees of the sin-sodden wrecks of
Mtv are being relegated to the dump.
With the clean play for amusement is
bound to come the clean play of forrie
and purpose, and then the theater will
get back pome of the popularity It hns
forfeited, while the Kreedy manager
were grasping for dollars polluted by
the taint of man's worst traits 1n dieud
fully exaggerated form.
"Nearly Married," which concludes it
engagement at the Brandcls tonight. i a
farce by Edgar Sclwyn, who wrote "The
Country Boy." "Nearly Married" is an
awfully funny farce. It comes nearer
keeping Its audiences in constant laughter
than any play produced on Broadway for
many a moon. The story is funny, but to
see it acted is funnier. A man and his
wife decide that they want :i divorce.
When it U about to be. granted they de
cide to make up. then they pti.rt on their
pecond honeymoon without telling tht-lr
friends of the re. oncilitiin. A meddle
some brother, who is also the wife's at
torney, arrives with the decree tlve min
utes after the couple have left for parts
unknown and the race to overtake the
wife who Is no wife and the bridegroom
who can't be one Is on. Talk about funny
situations and hearty laughs. "Nearly
Married" is Just one roar after another
from the time the curtain goes up on the
!!rst act until its final fall on tne third
when the audience Is In a veritable laugh
ing panic.
Annette Kellerman In the intensely In
teresting seven-reel film. "Neptune's
Daughter," will play a return engagement
of three days at the Brandcls theater,
pprning with a matinee on Monday, Sep
tember 14. During the run of this picture
at the Brandeia during the week of Au
gust 30 the house was sold out at nearly
every one of the fourteen performances,
and many who were turned away at that
time can now take advantage of this last
apportunlty to see this crowning achieve
ment of motion photography. A matinee
kill be given dally.

of dramatizing the novel went along it

they did their work well and with light!
