.' A ' 'California composer, Andrew L.
fl Benson, formerly of Santa Bar
bara! but now of Ban Francisco, has
! cornel forward with the interesting in-
formation that ho is completing plans
' for the San Francisco production ot
;hls opera of California life, "The Cal-
' lfornla Girl." Both the libretto and
ninali. ara Mr Rpnitnn'a wnrk Th "
.scene of the opera is Santa Barbara
and It finda its romantic incidents in
ithn California life of today.
; 't is curious," says Benson, "thai
ithls is the first American world's ex-
position to inspire the composition of
songs destined for more than ephem
jeral popularity. Who can recall a
' son: that sang itself oufat Chicago,
Buffalo, St Louis, Jamestown or
j elsewhere?. These fairs probably had
; thei songs, but they did not last, per-
I haps because tbey had no independent
'.musical appeal.
'Our world's exposition marks an
interesting advance in this respect.
Already two distinctively California
songs have achieved - national popu
larity. 1 refer to "California and You'
and .'I Love, You, California 1 should
' like to put' my California song for-
ward, for artistic comparison with
these. I should be less than human j
If I didn't think it the best of the
; three." T
i The Benson opera was recently pro
duced in Santa Barbara under the aus
pices of the Native Daughters, and its
run was most successful. Some of the
numbers have already been introduced
into Sarv Francisco cafes and are prov
ing ptfpular as vocal numbers and for
dancing. "
H3W HENRY MILLER began his
notable producing career Is inter
estingly told as follows In his own
Words:
t "At the beginning of a season about
ID .years ago, I spent more than a
week studying the mats outside of pro
ducing managers' doors. Theft I . be
gan to ask myself why X should do it.
'Why,' said I to myself, "should" I
spend my lime waiting for an inter
View with men who know no more
about plays than I doT'
J "With that idea I went to the bank
and was told that I could draw a check
for Just 11100. 1 took it and told the
, manager of the old Princess theatre
'. that . I wanted the playhouse. With
capital down to $100 I began to phone
to men who had told ma many times
tfcey would be glad to back me should
I ever car to undertake' a production
of my own. After about $40 had been
consumed In long distance conversa
tions, which always concluded in the
same dull way, 1 concluded that there
"wasn't any chance of Interesting'
"r persona whose interest wanes in pro
portion to your desire to excite it. ;
.'' j "With $60 left, I accepted a short
'vaudeville engagement. My friends
1 were horrified, but the brief season
; ' netted me over $6000 more than I
i spent. .' With this slender capital I

T The effect of this fiction on the

threw off the sombre gray ot the lat
ter role ana now she shines in a part
which is more In tune with the much
heralded gorgeousness and wealth of
Broadway.
"After the "Quaker Girl" experience
Miss Claire went to London and shown
with great brilliancy in "The Girl from
Utah" and "The Belle ot Bond Street.
She came back to this country with
some very definite notions as to the
difference between London and New
York. Furthermore, she has had the
courage to speak right out in public
and say what she thought.
For example, she thinks London peo
ple are more loyal to their stars. The
English will go to see their favorite
players regardless of the value of: the
Piece in which they re playing. This
not the case in New York. Many
of those who enjoyed Ina Claire in

her in "Lady Luxury" because the two
musical comedies axe different!

great numbers while the said pocket
book gets back to its former state
of good health and robustness. Of
course, the managers know , all this
and seldom is it that a producer will
venture forth with a fledgling when
the year is still' young.
The one happy, successful excep
tion ts James Forbes' "The Show
Shop'' at the HudsoD. Forbes is pleas
antly and gratefully remembered for
'THe Chorus Lady," the excellent play
which introduced Rse Stahl to the
country This latest play Is very
much like "The Chorus Lady," for It,
too, holds the mirror up to the theatre

Forbes takes a delightful fling at the
managers and nobody likes a man
ager with genuine satire flavored
with a little sentimentality.
He shows in the Opening act the
office of the manager who Is going
to put on a melodrama entitled "The
Punch,". Into that office stream all
the characters- who may be seen in
real life any sunny afternoon on the
east side of Broadway in the neigh
borhood of Times Square. Of course,
there is the young actress, the do
ting mamma, the "angel" and all the
rest. The millionaire wants to marry
the heroine of 'The Punch" but moth
er objects. : She wants daughter to
have a Broadway appearance first.
How the young plutocrat wins the
girl is the story of the play. He does.
The cast is unusually good, with Doug
