- ttTjriGH JINKS" will be a welcome
II attraction at the Heillg this
. VMk, for It will be the first real muni
.- cal comedy offering of tbe season. It
Ls presented by Arthur Hammerstein
after an immense success In New Tors,
and, wonder of wonders. It is being
.sent to the coast witn a metropolitan
cast. Wholesome and Irresistibly fun
ny, Stella. Mayhew is in the lead, sup-
ported - by such principals as Philip
" Ryley, Eugene O'Rourke, Adele Ards-
" ley, Paul Poreast, Dorothy Wade, Bllile

"Secret Service," one of the dramas
of the Civil war that never grows old,
in the offering of the Baker players
for this week. The play was written
j - by William Gillette, and used by him
' as a starring vehicle. It is the story
of a young officer of the United States
army who. goes down into the south
during the siege of Kicnmond. Through
i .his knowledge of telegraphy his ruse
for the capture of the city is about to
culminate, when the love . element
triumphs 'and causes him tdchange
- his plana. William II. Powell will
" play the Gillette role.
NEW YORK is to have a revived
New .Theatre in the fall with
Granville Barker, the English actor
And producer at the helm, provided
Mr. Barker's present season of dra
J ma tic performances at Wallack's is
successful. Practically the same men
who were behind the old New Theatre
are back of the new plan which will
be similar to the one put into effect
-under Winthrop Ames a repertory
theatre to produce high class plays.
- The fatal mistake of the original In
stitution, that of having too large an
auditortum, will be eliminated if the
"new venture is launched, and a seat-
ing capacity of not more than 1200
. will be provided. In speaking of the
new plan one of the backers said:
"The New Theatre idea has never
died. An. attempt was made to develop
: it in an auditorium that was too large
"for the proper presentation of plays,
except the most spectacular ones. The
ruuning expenses of the house were
enormous. Yet the audiences were al
ways of good size, and we feel that in
more intimate surroundings the
scheme would have been a success.
"What we have been looking for is
a man to build up the theatre about.
Given tbe men, we believe its success
Is assured. We feel that Mr. Barker
willcprove to be that man. and if his
present season is a Buccess he will
probably assume the directorship of a
- revived New Theatre, which he will
manage in connection with his London
repertory house."
rTTHE possibilities of the English
JL libel law as pertains to newspap
ers was Illustrated to the accompany -
tnent of 16000- and costs when Gladys
- Cooper, considered one of the most
beautiful women on the English stage,
; i was given that verdict by the courts
V against the "London Mail," a weekly
publication. On July H the Mall pub
lished a single paragraph, under 20
lines in length, referring to an lm-
- pending scan die in theatreland but
mentioning no names. Miss Cooper
and other witnesses swore that they
considered the paragraph aimed at her
and the Jury brought in a verdict in
her favor after being out only a few
minutes.
'A MADE in Portland playlet, "A
Jt. Slip in Eugenics," is soon to make
. Its appearance on Pantages circuit. It
la - the work of Mr. and Mrs. E. A.
Barnes of Multnomah station, who are
also - collaborating In a number of
longer musical works. The skit was
, bought by Robert Dill, who appeared
recently at the Portland Pantages. It
- is a. broad comedy, dealing with the
'tjuestion of eugenic marriages.

WILLIAM A. BRADY has proved
the one New York manager who
was-brave enough to take the pro
verbial bull by the horns and present
Broadway with a war play in which
the Brifeteh ,and Germans are pitted
"against one another. "The White
: - Feather" is Jibe title and late reports
are to the effect that it is proving a
success. The British war ofice suc
ceeds in overthrowing the plans of the
German Secret Service agents, who
have heen actuated by highest pa
triotism and who meet their fate in
.,' the calm consciousness of a duty per
. formed for the Fatherland.
'THE HIGHWAY Of LIFE," Louis
" N. Parker's dramatization of
"David Copperfield" which did not
prove a success in New York earlier
In the season, is meeting a kinder
fate in London where it is being pre-
eented at this time with Sir Herbert
Tree doubling in the roles of Micawber
and Dan'l Pegotty. The play is also
to be done In Boston under the title
f "David Copperfield."
TkfORE thffti 250 play manuscripts
' ATI were received in Los Angeles
during the first 10 days of the ex
istence of the Oliver Morosco Play
Heading bureau. In fact, since the
bureau was established in the Bur-
bank theatre, January 1, the influx
of plays has been so great that the
number of professional readers has
1 been Increased from five -to 10. On
,. account of the great number of plays
that accumulated at the bureau prior
. to Its opening, Mr. Morosco has so
far been unable to keep to his time
schedule in the return of manuscripts
- and it has been necessary to suspend
the schedule until the readers catch
tip with their work.
'
THE first performance on the pro
fessional stage in the United
States of "Chitra" was made in Bos-
ton's Toy theatre last week by a new
organization known as the Modern
Drama Players. "Chitra" is the most
. Important dramatic work of Rabin
- dranoth .Tagore, the Hindu poet who
'was awarded the Nobel prize for lit
erature two years ago... The play may
be taken on an eastern tour.
- rT,HE Ultimatum; or, Every Man
- A Has His Price" is the title of
a new play Just completed by Sir Her
bert Beerbohm Tree. It Is said that
- It-concerns a certain -"Ruler of a Great
People and his chiropodist. All things
.taken into consideration it might be
"suspected that an anti-German flavor.
wlll predominate in the new work.
A. SCORE without a flaw, beautiful
Jt settings, an excellent cast that
"in some particulars is a very unusual
one, are some of the comments in the
Dramatic Mirror on "What's Going

Movies on Decline,
Says Hammerstein
Hothing Hew In Pictures and People
Are Getting Tired of Seeing Same
Old Things, He Asserts.
Oscar Hammerstein has this to say
about motion pictures:
"The movie ls'on the decline. .There
is nothing new in the pictures, and
the people are growing tired of seeing
the same old things. I believe the
cycle is swinging back to the drama
and melodrama for the masses, and if
I were a young man in search of an
avocation i wouia oecome a producer."
Mr. Hammerstein, who was not al
lowed to have grand opera in his New
York theatre which he built for the
purpose, tried motion pictures in it
without success, and now he is seek
ing to sell the house, for he declares
It eats greenbacks like an alligator.

Well Kpown Women
Active in New York
Misses Alice and Irene Lewisohn Mem
bers of Group Who Liiach4 Helgh
borhood Playhouse, Hew Tork.
Two women, the Misses Alice and
Irene Lewisohn, daughters of the late
Leonard Lewisohn of New York, who
have visited in Portland and who
have a number of friends here, are
Important members of the group of
people who launched the Neighbor
hood playhouse a week ago Friday
night in New York.
The theatre is New York's latest
sociological theatrical experiment and
is being watched with keen interest
by-those with similar ideals in other
cities.
A comfortable sized theatre has
been built at 466 Grant street on the
east side for the purpose of develop
ing a community playhouse where the
racial traditions of the neighborhood
will find artistic expression and
where serious plays and comedies as
well as other forms of entertainment
may be given. The weekly program
will be varied and admission will be
5 and 10 cents, except Saturday and
Sunday evenings, when it will "be 25
and 50 cents.
Saturday and Sunday evenings will
be devoted to the work of the Neigh
borhood Players and there will be oc
casional performances in Yiddish and
English by visiting companies. The
programs on other days will be made
up with playlets, folk songs and
dances, illustrated fairy tales, mario
r.ettes. music and motion pitcures.
Performances will continue from 1:30
to 11 p. m. and between the hours of
3 and 6 the program will be of special
interest to school children.
The Neighborhood playhouse was
opened with a biblical festival in
three parts, ".Teptha's Daughter,"
based on the recital of Jeptha's vow
in the Book of Judges. The chojus
and processionals, the dances ar
ranged in arrnaic forms of the orien
tal color combined with the language
of the Bible, did much to convey the
spirit of the tribal days of the ancient
Jews and to interpret the traditions
of the neighborhood with which the
playhouse is identified.
Much of the preparatory work of
the production was done by Ameri
cans and a goodly portion of it on
the east side, where friends and fami
lies of those who had assisted saw
the work. The cast consisted of 60
persons, most of them from the festi
val and dramatic groups of the Henry
Street settlement, where for the past
eight years they have been taught
the rudiments of , dramatic art by the
Misses Lewisohn. Scenery, properties
and costumes were made by classes in
the Neighborhood playhouse. The.
crchestra score incorporated some tra
ditional Jewish melodies.
The policy of the Neighborhood
Playhouse Is directed by an advisory
group composed of Miss Lilian D,
Wald, Max Morgenthau Jr., Mrs. Rita
Morgenthau and the producing staff,
Mrs. Sara Cowell LeMoyne. the Misses
Lewisohn. Miss Agnes B. Morgan and
Miss Helen Arthur. The Neighbor
hood playhouse is held by those who
keep an ear close to the theatrical
ground as. one of the first indications
of a big movement effecting the
American stage.
Postage to Germany Increases.
Washington. Feb. 20. Postmaster
General BuUe3on has suspended the 2
cent postage rates on mails from ths
United States to Germany, and an
nounced that until direct transporta
tion service was restored the rate on

"As my snare of the memorial ob
