TERRY DUFFY says that of all the cities and villages and ham lets where he has visited in his calling as comedian he has never seen so fair a city as ours with such a worm at its roots. "Whaddya mean worm?" I asked. "I mean that on every side in Port land I hear too much religious con troversy. In the length and breadth of the land Portland seems to have a strong undercurrent of religious feel ing, and I wish someone would tell me why. This country was founded on a rebellion against religious per- secution, and one of the first laws we were taught in school Was that every American should be allowed to worship God according to the dictates of his own conscience. "But are they? It seems to me that a man's religion should be the prop. the one personal belonging that he does not feel called upon to discuss with every Tom, Dick and Mary who wants to argue the comparative val ues of religious props. "We all are trying to get to heaven and every man in his heart holds an abiding faith in the existence of good will, and love and God. Protestant, Catholic, Jew, Gentile, Latter Day Saints, whatsoever our tag, we are all struggling toward heaven and God. What matters the road we take so that we are happy along our way? Wasn t it btevenson who said: It is better to travel hopefully than to arrive? . Terry Duffy is married to one of the cleverest women writers in the playwriting and scenario field. She is Anna Nichols and she is a living refutation of the current belief that when God gives a woman a brain that functions outside of a kitchen he forgets to give her anything-. else. Besides a very fine brain that works, Anna Nichols is a beauty and she was a clever comedienne in eastern companies before she took up writ ing. At Bayside, L. I., where the Duffys . keep . house when Terry is home from his touring, th"ere's a fine broth of a boy called Terry Junior who is just three years old. He is a roughneck for fair," said his father, trotting out Junior's pic ture in a little vest pocket, frame. "He cherishes an ambition toward either of two noble1 callings.

Alberto Salvi WJns Success in Harp Recital, Playing Is Derlared Better Thau Any Kver Heard Here. BY JOSEPH MACQUEEN. GOOD, old-fashioned poets, previous to the time when highbrows started to cast doubt on many a cherished belief and measured evej-y-thin by scientific rule and reason, created comforting -thoughts that up in heaven the good angels play harps day and night to sound everylasting praise. A 1922 harpist in the person of Alberto Salvi, virtuoso of the strings from Venice, Italy, jrave ,a recital with his magic hr,p last night in the public auditorium, and won a success out of the ordinary. He played the harp so well tha't it seenwd angel fingers swept the strings and lifted the elect up to that blessed heaven that is defined by wise men as a state of mind. The advance agent said that Alberto Salvi is the best harpist in all the world, and surely he told the truth. Salvi plays the harp better than any previous harpists heard in !

We call the other boy Billy, and he's the quiet, correct sort who will grow up and wear tortoise-shell glasses, and in fact turn into just such a goody boy as. the role of Timothy, .which I m playing in "Wait 'Till We're Mar ried." Our own boy Junior would just as soon eat off the floor and adores dirt "and mud and fights. The two little tads are exactly opposite in types and the best pals in the world "We are all moving out to Cali fornia. I'm going to do this play in pictures and then 'I'm to have a- play of my own,, an Irish musical play with a chorus ' of colleens and Chauncey Olcott role for myself. My wife is helping write it. She just had a new play, '"Abie s Irish Rose, pro duced last -week jn Los Angeles by Morosco, and the reviews say it is a riot.'-' Mr. Duffy never had been to this coast before Morosco brought fcim here in his present play, and he is naturally enthusiastic about the seen ery. He is a Chicagoan, and like every Chicagoan, glad of it., - this city, and Portland has heard quite a few of them. Salvi is mentally and musically endowed- as a harpist. He says he has . not any pastimes or hobbies in life, but just to play the harp. He lives .this thought, night and ; day and is lucky enough .to possess a strong body and especially strong fingers. All these elements must enter into the makeup of a harpist. Salvi says that the pressure of the harpist's hands upon the strings alone creates the power of expres sion, and that the pedals at the base of the harp are controlled by the harpist's feet to produce the sharps and flats. Thus it is seen that the modern harp is a complicated in strument by which the real artist. like Salvi, makes on earth what the old poets call tile music of heaven Salvi was the only artist "at the concert, and was able to hold atten tion of the audience from first to last a notable itea.t. The Chopin "Fantasie Impromptu,", the Debussy 4'Fountain," the Sain Saens "Swan" and other loved classics were played ; . i . , - , . ; " 1111 V'" ,"wc' " " the player seemed by a sweep of the strings to create ocean spray, and at others to conjure up a wild storm, or to quiet down to the murmur of a shell. Salvi's own compositions, "Valse de Concert" and "Italian Sere nade," were much liked. Salvi was rapturously applauded. The concert, it is announced, is the last of. the attractions of the Elwya concert bureau for the present sea son. BOYS GET SIX MONTHS Two Burglars Plead Guilty and Are Sant to Rockpile.

It will be the jury's duty to udee the accused play s morality and general suitability.. Neither side may uresent arguments or pleas to the reviewers. In the event that the jury votes the play to be immoral or otherwise ob jectionable,' the producer will have one week in which to delete or cnange the portions objected to. If it 1st then found objectionable it will be re moved from the stage.
