AN INTIMATE and delightfully amusing close-up study of the pointings of the finger of destiny, In sofar as John Paul Bart Is concerned. s revealed In "A Tailor-Made Man" which opened yesterdav- afternoon at the Hellig. It is a farce rather than a comedy, it you want to make fine distinctions, and that It never could have happened concerns us not In the least, since It Is highly -eniovable and Is handled skilfully from every angle. narry james smith has made an English version of Gabriel Dregley's w eu-f uting Dress Coat,'' and fur ther back than either storv is the axiom which prompted it, that clothes make the man." and its amendment that it takes nine 'tailors to make, a gentleman. With all Its farce and travesty the plav sustains an undercurrent of the philosophy of success, and points dramatically to tne trutii tnat a man can achieve success provided he Is gifted with consummate self-assurance. Under cover of a tailor-made cam ouflage John Paul Bart makes a phe nomenal rise from tailor's drudge to a power and authority in the financial world. His fight is so earnest and John Paul Is so engaging personally that every one of us was with him and for him. With smiling egotism and unshaken effrontery John Paul announced dispassionately that he did not aspire to do the things Napoleon had done. Rather he aspired to do tne things Napoleon had left undone In the first of the four acts which is for the main part a laying of the foundation for what Is to follow, we are Introduced to John Paul, pressing trousers and calmly awaiting the ar rival of Destiny which he firmly be neves nas Dig tnings in store for him. Destiny arrives In the. form of a cus tomer's suit of evening clothes and accessories which have been left by a aralst, and which happily enough fit John Paul perfectly. Our hero ap propriates them and goes uninvited to a big reception and dance given by some social climbers and where a great man of some shipbuilding in dustries is also to be honor guest for a few moments. John Paul grasps every opportunity to better himself and meetB the ship building giant and from here on his rise is balloon-like. Then there fol low months of success for' John Paul, but memories of the daughter of the old-world tailor in whose shop he AFTER the heavy and abundant dinner of yesterday, take home some Red Rock Cottage Cheese Its delicious, appetizing flavor will "please you; its healthful properties will do you good. You will relish it. worked crowd Into John Paul's work- Ing and social hours. Designing, mothers throw their heiress daugh-! ters at his handsome, well-furnished head, but he remembers the tailor's unassuming. honest and womanly daughter Tanya. When a discarded suitor of Tanya's threatens to expose John Paul's early history It Is John Paul himself who rushes with the story to the news paper. Then he returns to the tailor shop and takes up his old job where he left off. That his shipbuilding employer hunts him up and takes him back, and that Tanya goes too, makes a happy ending. The dialogue is well written and there Is a constant ingenuity In the plot development. The subject of cap ital and labor is skilfully handled, being presented in forcible, hand picked phrases. Harold Vermllye's gift for farce Is quite apparent and finds big scope in the role of John Bart. He adds a suggestion of un certainty to the assurance of John Paul at times, which makes the char acter seem a bit pathetic in spite of his bravado and effrontery. Out of a lengthy list of types who fitted to a nicefy the varied Interest ing roleB, the work of Anton Ascher as the excitable old-world tailor is memorable, and so too is that of Josephine Deffry as a fashionable mother. Redfield Clark as the finan cial king, and Frank Sherlock as a climber, not overlooking Florence Ryerson as Tanya. There Is another show tonight, one tomorrow night and a matinee tomor row afternoon.

The best part of the whole act Is the good voices, ranking well with the average comic opera road show. One of the best laugh-getters the theater has had In many months Is Clayton & Drew's "When Caesar Marks Antony," a Shakespearean travesty staged with appropriate Roman scenery and costumes and elaborate lighting. While the conver sation is couched in classic phrases, the actors bring In modern slang with great effect and have a number of jokes that seem to fit Portland better than any other city. The skit is brought to the tragic and depicted in the original play and the bodies of the three principals are on the floor when the curtain goes down. The inevitable applause is the excuse for lowering a small screen on which appears: "Dear friends, we thank you, but we cannot bow. We are supposed to be dead."
