(Special.) A woman lawyer is the principal character In "Her First Divorce." at the Comedy Theater. The play, which la by C. W. Bell, con cern! Mra. Wllmott. a woman lawyer, whose husband Is a great corporation attorney. Her connection with the bar la mostly of a passive nature, but wheo her husband refuses to secure a divorce "lor a friend of the wife, the modern Portia decides to prosecute the suit her self. Her action leads to a quarrel "with her husband, and she leaves his home for that of the would-be divorcee Mrs. Wllmott. when conducting her client's case In court, provides plenty of opportunities for laughter, particu larly when she tries to cross-examine a witness with a bad memory, and later when she tries to reverse the woman's testimony. There is considerable bright dialogue and the play, as a whole. Is a very acceptable comedy. Laura Hope Crews, who Is a very clever actress, appeared almost too ju venile as Mrs. Wllmott. but there Is much variety to her performance, and In occasional passages she is irresisti bly funny. Julian L'Estrange as Harry Wilmott gave a capital performance of the good natured lawyer, while Ruth Holt Boul cicault as Clara Rowe wore some hand some frocks and portrayed the emo tions of the discontented matron with proper effect. Tyler's Slilfmrit Startling;. One of the most surprising items of theatrical news that has been heard In New York for some time was the statement by George C. Tyler that he has given up his lease of the Century Theater and that Liebler & Co. would make no new productions during the coming year, although they will continue to run "The Garden of Allah," "Joseph and His Brethren." "Disraelll," and May Irwin In "Widow by Proxy." Mr. Tyler, who made this announce ment shortly before sailing for Europe, 7 --v XV SSR 'f i ii I w t i.w r X said that he had always aimed to pro duce plays with a purpose, but that the present generation of theater-goers seemed to prefer laughs and lingerie where it doesn't demand crime. Mr. Tyler further said: "I have little capability and no de sire for making the productions of the kind that appear to appeal to the New Yorker In his present state of culti vation. And so I am going to give over production In a year in which I shall rest, and therefore will not renew my lease on the Century Theater." Mrs. August Belmont. who, as Eleanor Robson. charmed the theatrical world, but left it to become the wife of one of New York's wealthiest men, has not lost interest In the drama, and Is president of the Educational Dramatic League, which was organized for the purpose of instructing children in the art of acting. At the annual dinner of the Woman's Municipal League, Mrs. Belmont spoke of the work that the league was doing, and described the temptations that be- (Si set children of the very poor, who were In danger of being influenced by bad plays and improper moving pictures. This the league seeks to combat by enlisting the children's Interest in dra matic work. , . Recruits Not First Aim. "Let the boys play the parts of the biggest and noblest men and in time they will learn to Imitate them. Teach ers say that acting gives the children an all-around development. A boy tak ing the part of a king hardly wants to be told to stand erect. Children are taught in dramatics the science of emo tion. They see that the same emotion that makes the villain turned In an other direction makes the hero. There are few boys who do not wish to be heroes." Mrs. Belmont said that her organiza tion was not formed for the purpose of obtaining recruits for the stage, but that if they ran across a few actors no one would object The newest theatrical enterprise In this city of many play houses is the -Bt French Theater, and it is expected that work will soon be begun on a new theater which will be near Broadway, In the Times Square section, and will open Its doors to the public about No vember 1. The theater is a small one and will seat about 300. It will be controlled by Le Theatre Francais Company, Incorporated. The managing directors are A. Baldwin Sloane, the composer, and Georges Raoul Vlober. A number of prominent society people are patrons and Mme. Sarah Bernhardt Is also Included in the list. Beverly Sitgreaves. the well-known American actress, will be one of the members of the company which has been organised for the benefit of the French-speaking persons In this city who desire to hear French, classical and modern, drama performed by French actors and actresses. With the exception of Miss Sitgreaves. the cast will be composed of pupils of the Paris Conservatoire, brought to New York for this purpose. The'theater will have a season of 24 weeks, and at the end of this period the company will be sent on a tour of the principal cities. In addition to the typical French plays it is planned to produce Ameri can dramas of the present day in French in order to adapt and perform them here prior to production In France. Ladles' Gambol Success. The Lambs packed the Metropolitan Opera-House at their Annual Ladies' Gambol, and entertained their audience' with a versatile programme ranging from poesy to music. The principal piece on the pro gramme employed a large number of Lambs, who sang, "Hush, Hush," over a baby's cradle after DeWolf Hopper failed to soothe the infant aided by a lullaby with an anvil chorus. Mr. Hopper appeared as a village black smith and others in the sketch were: Walter Lawrence. Larence D'Orsay, Frank Lalor and Scott Welsh. A Chinese play, "The Green Beetle," was well acted by Edwin Stevens, Ef fingham Pinto, John Sainpolis and Paul Everton. Other acts shown were: "Even In the Wilderness," by Clay M. Greene; "The Broadway Belles," by Burnslde and Hubbell; "The Naked Man." by Richard Harding Davis, and two scenes from "Virglnius." An Interesting spectacle. "The Irish Historic Pageant," was presented re cently In the Sixty-ninth Regiment Armory. The spectacle shows the period of Irish history from the second to the sixth century, when the pagan Irish were converted to Christianity. The first episode showed the "Pro claiming of Finn," in which the Fen ians appear as the. protectors of Ire land, while the second shows the ar rival of St. Columcile. The life of the various periods are said to be historically ' correct, and show fairies, dancing girls, embroidery women, weavers, warriors and peas ants. The receipts are estimated at 120,000, which will be given to the fund of the Gaelic League for Irish research and language work. Vaudeville Gets Elsie Jnnis. Elsie Janis. who has been starring with Montgomery & Stone in the "Lady of the Slipper," ends her engagement this week and will shortly go into vaudeville. Miss Janis, as is not generally known, is a song writer of more than ordinary ability, and one of her pro ductions. "I've Always Been a Disap pointment," was sung by the Mac laine of Lochbule. the Scotch chiefta-in who rr.ade his first appearance on any rtage at Hammerstein's Victoria Thea ter this week. The song created much enthusiasm and augurs well for Miss Janis' future as a composer. Marcus Loew. who tor some tirae past has assumed a commanding posi tion in the vaudeville world with his chain of low-priced theaters, is worry ing the "big time" people more than ever. It is rumored that he has en tered a combination with Weber and Fields and that high-class vaudeville companies will be sent on tour, each with a well-known star as a headliner. v, n.m.Amortt wnnld undoubted ly mean war with the big vaudeville Interests, hut Loew is in position to make a very hard fight and would be a hard man to beat. t ' rhla nlnn Wpher and in pu, o v- - - 1 , - Fields may appear at the Broadway Theater this summer, me resi ui mo hAina- cnnnliivl hv Loew. The suc cess of the latter has been so great that the general opinion tor some nine hR been that he soon would enter the higher-priced field.

LOAN FUND IS BOON TO DESERVING GIRLS Spirit of Citizenship Makes It Necessary to Create in Department of Edu cation Political Science Committee With Helen V. Boswell in Charge. President Oregon Federation Women's Clubs. iS it worth while? Is the discourag ing question that comes to more than one committee, or club worker, but it is a question never presented to the trustees of the scholarship loan fund of the Oregon Federation of Women's Clubs. Each new loan means to the commit tee the coming in touch with another life full of interest and inspiration, and the committee would feel itself fully repaid if for nothing else than through the letters received from the benefic iaries. The following is from a young won an who received a small loan, that she might go to another state for some special work. After writing of a rath er discouraging first semester, she says: Of course. I expected better results, but 1 know now that it was that I had not suf ficiently adapted myself to new methods and conditions. At the beginninc of the second semester, I went to live with three other college girls, one of whom is rather older and owns a very lovely little home. We divided the expenses and the work, .mak ing it al! out on a definite basis, and a firm, reliable schedule. Being, no doubt. Interested In such problems. I wish to as sure you that the plan worked out in a really satisfactory manner. Expense Lhu.it fiS a Month. In fact, the average expenses of running the house have never exceeded M5 a motith and we each gave approximately 10 hours a week In time. You may be sure I am very grateful for such a fine solution for my living problem: it has meant consenlal living companions, a homo and independence. Through some friends here, I became deeply interested in social service work, and after thoroughly discussing the opportunities in that line, I registered for IS hours' col lege work: this, with eight hours' practice teaching added. Three of the IS hours are philosophy and landscape architecture, and 13 are educational courses. . As for my practice teaching, I am hap piest about it. I have charge -of the school gardens and nature study work in one of the public schools. There are '."0 children of foreign parentage in this school and each child has an individual garden. The school is down near the bay, in the manufacturing district, so you see, It is a wonderful op portunity of testing this rather new move ment school gardens. I am glad to say the results were encouraging, gratifying in the extreme. Plan Is Satisfactory. It Is recognized now to he one of the most efficient means of dealing with the prob lem of the foreign child's so-called lack of Interest in school. As for my part in the work, 'the instruct ors have recommended me for a supervisory position, end the principal of the school has offered me a position there. In my other courses I am reasonably sure of constantly higher grades, having had more time for study. . I cannot tell you Just how much this year in college has meant to me. It has witlhout question been the most profitable and most pleasant time I have known. I have def'r.itely "placed'- myself. I know that my work henceforth will be in the line of social service. I have made some fine friends among people who are achieving things, and Just the very bigness of this Institution has given me a new view point and breadth of judgment and outlook that a:iy lesser could not have done. i have not attended any of the social functions of the college. 1 regret It very much, but It was a matter of choosing In time disposal. i chaii teach next year in order to return my loan, but I shall return the following year and finish my college worn. Chairman Is Complimented. The young woman concludes the let ter with a kind and complimentary tribute to Mrs. Frederick Eggert, chair man of the scholarship loan fund, to whom the letter was written. Aside from this letter being most gratifying to the club women wno made it Dossible to assist sucn aeserv lng young students, the letter contains so much of real phllosopny ana a pruc tlcal good sense that every one can be benefited by reading it. The board of trustees, while having something like 30 young women on its list of beneficiaries, has been so for tunate in having its loans promptly re turned that it has yet on hand a goodly sum which it will loan to other young women who need assistance for educa tlonal purposes. This money is loaned without inter est, to be paid back in installments when the young woman becomes wage-earner. The requirements for procuring a loan are: Satisfactory proof that the applicant intends to qualify herself for the position in life that a better education will give ner, and that she be recommended for a loan by some club or persons of standing In the state. Purpose to Advance In Life. The loans are not confined to the students of any college or school, or to any branch of education, though It is not loaned for the acquirement of so called accomplishments. Its purpose is solely to fit young women who must be self-supporting for better and higher positions in life. For this the money is loaned freely to the limit of the treasury, and when it is exhausted the club women of the state will see to It that more is forthcoming. So strongly did the spirit of citizen ship dominate the last convention of the general federation thai it was found necessary to create in tne aepan ment of education a political science committee, and most appropriately, Miss Helen V. Boswell, so well known to Oregon women, was put in charge of it. There Is no woman in me coun try today better informed on the science of politics, or upon political affairs than Miss Boswell, for she has Imbibed it at first hand, as for years she has been a welcome guest ana counsellor in the highest official circles of the capital, and on more than one occasion has been sent on delicate diplomatic service from the White House Itself. In her outline of plans for the political science committee work she says: Plan Is Outlined. "Since the purpose of the establish ment of this committee was prepara tion for citizenship, the consideration of certain subjects that come within the realm of political science will be confined to development and conditions in the United States. Clubs desiring to make a comparative study and to give some attention to the history and formation of the constitutions of other countries, can have such a course ar raneed on application to the chairman. Miss Boswell has arranged her study under three heads: Our Government, "Judicial Branch," and "State Govern ment." These she has subdivided, giv ing books and authorities to be used for each. In conclusion she says: "Clubs wish ing to go more exhaustively into the study of our monetary system, taxation. tariff, postal service, many Drancnes that coma under political science, can write to the chairman for detailed sug gestions." Miss Boswell's address is 621 West One Hundred and Eleventh street, New York. Club Haa Successful Year. The Woman's Club of Ontario, Mal heur County, which has been hitherto known as the "Work and Win" Club, has had a busy, profitable and suc cessful year. Its programme has been along civic lines, its meetings have been well attendea ana its memoer- ship increased. The chief interest of the club, since its inception, has been the forming and maintaining of a pub lic library for Ontario. At first the library consisted of few books, for which a small fee was asked, housed In a small frame building, some of the club members giving their serv ices as librarians. Since those days the club has been able to add to the library until now there are 1700 vol umes, free to all and cared for by a paid librarian. A year ago the city undertook the support of the library and levied a tax to provide a library fund. The Mayor appointed a board of directors, who have charge of the maintenance of tha library and this Summer is expected to see the completion of a Carnegie library. The lots on which the build ing is to stand are already paid for and the plans nearly completed. Society Helps Out Library. The board of directors has inaugu rated an annual book social as a pleas ant means of adding to the library and the first one, held during the Winter, was well attended and enjoyed. The Woman's Club -has provided for the maintenance of the library by means of Tag day in the Fall and by an annual ball, which is one of the so cial events of the Winter. A recent effort to raise money re sulted in a vaudeville entertainment given at the Dreamland Theater May 5. The entertainment was varied and delightful, consisting of music from On tario's best musical talent, folk dances by little children, topical songs by a chorus of pretty girls and a farce in two acts given by the members of tho club, assisted by local talent. On New Year's day, 1913, the women of the club edited a local paper the Ontario Argus issuing a 20-page pa- per containing Interesting articles and views of Ontario and Malheur County. A substantial sum was realized, with which the club was able to give further help to the library and besides gave generously to the Cemetery Improve ment Association and concluded the furnishing of a room at the Holy Rosary Hospital. Flood Sufferers Helped. The club contributed $60 to the re lief of the flood sufferers in Indiana and through their efforts a sum total ing S108 was collected and a carload of provisions forwarded, as well aa boxes of clothing and crates of egga sent by express. The programme chosen by the club for next year's work devoted a consid erable time to the Tunama Canal and carries on questions pertulning to civio improvement and child welfare. The Ontario Woman's Club looks forward to a busy and Interesting Winter un der the leadership of its recently re elected president, Mrs. H. H. Whitney. Club women may have been In doubt about the commission form of govern ment and the new charter; they may be floating about in the uncertain maze of candidates with neither compass nor rudder to steei them, but no uncer tainty was in their voice or vote when they Were asked to indorse the fire men's pension act. Every club In the city was appealed to. and not one but indorsed it and felt it was a measure coming so near home and so directly for the protection of the women and chllren that many of them have es poused it as their particular measure) and are working Industriously for it. Portland Women Kavor PI no. One member ot the Portland Woman't Club spoke enthusiastically for it at the last meeting, and another said: "We pension our soldiers when they go to war; why not pension our firemen when they do battle to save our homes?" No measure that has been presented to the new voters has had such a strong appeal or been so unanimously indorsed as, the firemen's pension. Wednesday the Woman's Club of Os wego held Its annual meeting at the homo of Mrs. G. H. Pettinger; with the president. Mrs. George Prosser, pre siding. This little neighborhood club of a half dozen women a few years ago has grown to a sturdy, self-reliant body of 35 women, who are not only exerting a strong influence and mold in,. onntimAnl n n H nrtinlon In the town and surrounding country, but are them selves studying ana aeiving mm tin greatest questions of the day. The club meets twice a month and took up the study of biology last Winter and will continue the course through another year. The club meets twice a month, one meeting being givr i to class study and the other to a lecture by Mrs. Rob ert French, of Portland. Mrs. French makes her lectures Intensely practical, applying her discussion of biology and eugenics to the everyday problems of life. Library Aim of Club. The club is contemp'ating a library for the town in the near future, but has decided to wait for definite action till a permanent clubroom could be se cured. It will this year again have un der its supervision the school garden exhibit, and expects to make it even more interesting than last year, though it was then considered one of tho best in the county. At the meeting Wednesday the fol lowing officers were elected: President, Mrs. E. Russell; vice-president, Mrs. Agnes Cox; secretary, Mrs. John Davis; treasurer, Mrs. Clay. At the close of the meeting the hostess served light re freshments, assisted by a bevy of tiny maids who dropped in on their way home from school. Hood River Woman's Club, now that its regular year's work has closed, la going to work in earnest to prepare for the state convention, which will be held there October 6-8. The club has just raised $1960 and will within a few days have the required J2000 to buy the library site, and at once will take measures for erecting a Carnegie 11- brAtythe annual meeting the following officers were elected: President Mrs. C. . . ,iAr,refildent.
