'An admirer of Sophlne Tucker's
vaudeville specialty lias linked. up this
llno In praise of her specialty: "It's
a lone, lingering laugh; a laugh that
will linger the longer you laugh, and
the longer yon linger to laugh makes
the laugh only linger the longer."

London. Nov. 20. A theatre owned
and operated by women Is London's
newest wartime feature.
Stagehands, scene shifters and other
male workers at theKingway enlistod
one by one until the playhouse closed.
It is now reopened by the proprietress,
j Miss Lena Ashwell and mere man plays
i no part in its coriauct except as an
actor or in the audience.
A comely young woman, well known
In London stage circles, is stage "man
ager." The limelights are worked by
girls who sit aloft admidst the upper
scenes, clad in mannish overalls and
linen coats. The electric switchboard
operator is likewise feminine.
All the scene, shifters wear skirts
and have always done so. A uniformed
female ticket taker stands at the door
while the ticket offices are devoid of
men. A woman's orchestra furnishes
the music under the footlights. Thers
is even a woman press agent.
Where Is Applause

Where is the applause of yester
year? The crowds come and pay and
stay, but compared with the thundrous
receptions of old the applause of to-

with every passing season applause
in the theatre is growing fainter and

i Many causes are at work at this dis-

gods stamped and whilstled and
cheered is either deserted or gone en-
' tlrely. ' Its whlldom patron are at
the movies, which are teaching them
to be as humanly silent as the photo

; The riiovtes are partially responsi
ble, perhaps, the disappearance of the
orchestra may nave something to do
with it. Certainly the calmer acting
and the quieter dramaturgy of the
twentienth century tend ever to invite
your reflective approval rather than
the Immediate outburst.
