THE BEE: OMAHA. SUNDAY. OCTOBER 16. "l1921. 7-M Broadway Sees Pure Man in Bare Innocence By JAMES WHITTAKCR. New York, Oct. IL-(SptcbL) The (ate of the French I'lay in America U usually Viutlly. The fjic ol the American play in 1'nria i nuIly disastrous. A Quick (tine uon would be that we are more elaa- nc in our ite. The reverte n true, We are quiite tiiirUitir. We like I'one nut American playi and ee none but American olay. We buy, produce and successfully sell French play, but not be lore they hivr breu to dcvattatingly Amrricanircit that their own author would not recojj vne I he m. Our purveyor! of thcat rical entertainment are aafii: in form ol literary mutilation called "adaptation. J he word "adaptation covert many prorrr, from the Introduc tion of "Haby. and "Uluc." onc into the core of Viennese operetta t the larding of the crtp and concite original uf "Illue-Iirard'i Eighth Wife," with wordy I) road way witti cism. The French know no such mechanic, t An American play in I'arii is trantlated no mof. It come to the boulevard at Yankee 01 it left Broadway. Teg iU- Mon Corur." (the first word translated , into Knglith i Trg,M and you may gue the rest) is playing on the boulevard now and I provoking :ome amazed comment. "How naive are our American friends," ay one French critic, baffled by llie mar velous innocence of Hartley Man per' heroine, "that they can 'ind so ' much joy in this childlike lmuse' menf." Judging us by our exported Nays, the l-renchman imlgc us cai low and uncouth. The clc.ir-eycl virgin, of course, docs not interest the French mind as exclusively as it charms ours. Returning lately to Ilroadway with a mind somewhat warned, no t'oubt hv contact with debasing for ctgn influences, I have touud a per centage of truth in the foreign esti mate of us. It may be the corrupt influence of raris, but I have to a'l mit that Winchcll Smith's "Thank You," for instance the blushing new mcccss of the Longacre theater seems terribly, almost indecently pure I venture-and you must par don me 'an European sophistication of which Mr. Winchell Smith and sonic of his colleagues will doubtless cure me in a fortnight. Suicly, l venture again, there is something al most indecent in the glamorous, uu defiled decency of all the adults in Mr. Smith's play. I have always thought the fig-leaf a most corrupt emblem. It seems extravagant that i' should float, a guild banner, at full mast over the majority cf our theaters. Under its flowing folds Mr. Winchell . Smith labors in the TLontracre to inculcate in us the truth that .we'll be happier when we're bet ter. -. Yin Y-: lm my ?T: -Ai :V - ?srt Ml O'Brien . f . j, ' ' 1V" X J 7(iixfUeLorc&itiQ ' 23 ' '. .Tay6r TMmffsr; 'ftXM m v at hp nOTwrf? The finat curtain of "Thank. You." his and Tom Cushing's new play falls on so'conclusivcly a demonstra tion of the rewards of pure, sweet goodness, that I am sure that none of us that were there last Monday night will ever again let a day go rfiy without its five minutes of thought for mother, granamotner ana tiaroia Bell Wright. ' ' . ' In "Thank You," Mr. Smith . dis cussed the problems of piety in the modern life. Piety, in the person of the Rev. David "Lee, hero of Mr. Smith's homclitic. is outrageously mistreated by the Sneer, Snicker and the Snort, ocrsonihcd in the vestry men of the Church of St. Marks in Dcdham. Conn. . The Reverend's pictv coes through one of those Broadway stage New England win ters. desoised nnd unrewarded. ' , The matter of the unrcward makes Mr. Smith's most resonant scenes When the wealthy New Yorker turns uo at the end of the second act and bitterly denounces Dedham for starving its pastor on 9oUU a year tne feeling thrilled through the audience that Mr. Smith had hit another bull's eye. Indeed, when Actor Frank Monroe vociferated: "But the Christians right here in America are the damnedest heathens of the lot," That better half of the audience whose noses proclaimed them Chris-J tiamty s shrewdest critics rose en masse and cheered. A large number of characters whom only Mr. Smith could make relevant to his play are involved in the year of Dcdham life which he portrays, there is a fans niece of the Reverend who is played in very nice clothes by Edith King. Regardless of expense, there are also a nice rich boy, and his nice rich Da. And. of course, the vestrymen are Mr. Smith's meat, the very nar row of the success which doubtless will, overwhelm John Golden, the lucky producer, with another inex plicable record run. ; The vestrymen run the whole ( tnut of funny clothes and New Eng land accents. If you appreciate the farm hand in Cohan's "Vagabond," the quaint provincials of Turn to the Right," or any of the deathless school of. gol darn comics, you can not be disappointed by a visit to the "Longacre." They are all there. When I left the National theater on Wednesday night and I hated to leave Carol Kennicott, with her modish hat askew over tearful eyes, was leaving Gopher Prairie to solve if possible, the meaning of her desper ate cry: "I'm going some place that's fit to live in." "The Gopher Prairie," which was first labeled in Sinclair Lewis' "Main Street," and must now suffer the fur ther indignaties of the fine play that Harvey O'Higgins and Harriet Ford have made therefrom. . knows itself as a remarkably fine place to live in, with running water and seven miles of cement sidewalk. It has not the gift's gie'n it to see itself as poor, aspiring Carol saw it I have not read the Sinclair Lewis novel If I am to judge by the axiom that good novels make bad plays, the novel must be pretty bad. For the play is very, very good, with one scene in its well planned succession of good scenes so perfect that your waning faith that words and acting arc, after all, miracles is instantly revived. . It is the crux of the play, this one scene, and may as well be told at once. Will Kennicott, the young doctor of Gopher Prairie, as ordi nary neighbor-loving, town-boasting mortal as you and me, and his wife, Carol, a sensitive dreamer, are un dressing and quarreling. The snub bing of her ideals which the young wife has suffered from unsympathet ic G&her Prairie Is turning into doubfLf her husband in Carol's cm- louisv Dteseer OI7PHCUM bittered mind. The - doctor's ideals are good sleep and good breakfasts. To the ridiculous -accompaniment of the nightly tooth bruMi and wooi pajamas, the clash ofthe two ideals develops to the point where the ex asperated Carol accuses her patient spouse 'of the. .'mental cowardices which are the town. vice. ' ., ; Then the telephone bell rings. The doctor is called out into a blizzard to make his way over, a "washed-out road to the scene' of an accident and takes his task, -with the; heroic sto icism which, we arc told, is the Com mon quality of all country: .doctors. The wife accepts: this answer to. her charge of v cowardice,, acknowledges her libel and scurries'. to make hot coffee. , '.' '.. , The ' scene 'ias that final perfec tion of good theater, writing, it is fair. '-'You know the wqman is right, but vou also know" that the man'is not wrong. Out. of it 'there develops logically and swiftly the .final - acts. There,, can .be., none butaitragic so-' luiion to taroi s anemma in- aiain Street." ) i v - ' Having-failed to- see the last act. I cannot swear that there is not a happy ending. I tan only hope there isn t. ' ; ' I hope that there,!was no ending; the very. -best and fie -very worst plays have no endings. The last cur tain of "Main Strcet"rmust inevitably fall wjth ' the-.' problem -o.f - how- this unpoised world :. is , to - contain both poets and ' brokers yvhho'ut accident is still -unsolved, -and it' must give you that supreme enjoyment of -the theater the1 thrill, ot after thought, which 'is" to the good play what the after taste is to good wine. . The acting is- worthy the piece. Alma Tell: who always - concealed about her an indication that she. was about to become' an acting person age, reveals the personage, in ser al irtomehts'v-'::'of-,;;lbrcath-taBtng beauty. ' .-'".'" - i,-' "-.' McKay Morris, .the doctor.- works stcathily and masterfully. , at-v the building up of a person which, at the end of the play, is.i-m. his hands, an enitome and -a";lanre .symbol, as the writers intended it should be, of that commonplace hero, the husband.' And the remainder of .the cast can be tearfully thanked foc-tbatithey resist ed that .inibulse it. must have been an . almost irresistible . one to make AT THE THEATERS ttihatt LotrstfQ Land of the Fee, Home of the Rave (CmUbm4 tnm rf Om) - gold deposits in this vicinity petered out, the town followed suit. We are shown the place where tht first bull ring in Ameu'ca was built, 1'he ring is still there, a coral of split logs. There arc no sigris of the bull, al though a sceptical passenger re marked the whole thing sounded like bull to him. , Besieged by Boys. Arrived at the mine we alight and are besieged by small boys with boxes of "specimens" which they sell for fee of 50 cents. These speci mens are alleged to contain gold de posits. None has ever been assayed, the tourists' faith in the purveyors being so implicit that the claim ia never questioned. The thrill at being able to own some real virgin gold works wonders among the travelers and for the boys. The trip to the 1,.100-foot level of the mine is made on an elevator at tached to a huge steel cable. As one sinks rapidly into the dark, dank shaft of the mine one can't help hut con sider with a shudder what would happen should the cable break. Down in the mine one is shown just how gold is mined. One is also shown a black streak In . the rock which is purported to be a gold vein. . Trip to Daylight Expert mining engineers lecture, collect fees and tolerate the ravings of the crowd. When the electric drill starts its tattoo there is the ever-present "Oh!" chorus with more raving. The trip up to daylight is also thrilling. The mine owners, however, have done a gross injustice to the mem ory of Mary McKinncy. Nobody ex plains who she ' was or how the mine happens to bear her name. The trio Into Cripple Creek Is uneventful. We pats through fields ol told mines In action, Cripple Creek is shorn of the glory of its brighter days, when murder was common and one could sit in any kind of a game (rout draw to fan tin. One side of the street and a goodly thar of the other ar lined with eniphy build ings, mute testimony of what used lo be. Sickening Thud. One walks expectant!;' at though at any moment the air might be punctured with the sharp staccato of six-shooter shots, to be followed by the sickening thud of a body fatt ing lifelessly on' the sidrwatk. In Cripple Creek there are no more dead bodies hanging from the trees or lamp posls. A few "dead ones" sit in the doorways, while others, like ghosts, in the dark interiors of the curio shops move back and forth : silently as they try to sell souvenirs to the tourists. The tourists moke haste to the nearest restaurant where for fee of 75 cents one eats boiled potatoes, beef, com and ice cream. The gold. -so we are told, Is al most gone from this vicinity. High wages have played an important part in the depopulation of the once thriving community. Wages and freight rates become so high the ore is not valuable enough to mine and there it lies. But Cripple Creek can eke out an existence for some time from tour ists. . . i Then back to the Springs. Start With a Fee. Pike's . Peak at dawn, the cog road, the incline at Manitou,- "the steepest in the world." where a col lege youth spins delectable yarns on the trio upward. He makes enoush off his summer fees to pay his way through school m the winter. The train ascends at a slow rate and the grade is uncomfortable to those who are used to the plains. On top there is a "fleet" of burros "s; NEU. O'BRIEN Super, filial rtl li tn , the ond und Uat day of Its brier cmacemsnt at til Urandota, cloalog tcnlfht. , . . ...
