' How she brushes aside the tyr anny of Dreary and overcomes, the enmity of her two step-son and fills her step-daughter's life with love and sunshine, makes a very human story and a most entertaining one. Dodson Mitchell will appear as jOld Barnaby, while other players of C renown have been selected . to enact Hhe Pennsyl vania Dutch characters so well worth knowing. f a eh A BAKER How do so many young" girls get their first start on the downward path? What is the most common form temptation first assumes, and what after all, is the principal reason for their fall? These are questions that have been discussed, studied, preached and written about all over" the coun try, but In the intense emotional drama "tJomnwn Clay" which the Alcazar Players will be seen in at the Baker for the week starting this afternoon, the subject is presented In a way that Just about- stops all argument as far as the lives of thousands of girls in the big cities are concerned. The pit! ful story of little Ellen Neal before the Judge In the great third act trial scene covers the ground In a manner no cold type or personal talk could possibly do. She makes you see it and feel it. The lesson goes home and that is why "Common Clay" is one of the biggest things in spoken drama of the past several years. It tells us something, and tells it in a manner be yond argument But It leaves us to sit and wonder If,' after all, the girt 1 not more safe In her own born and bred surroundings than in those of the wealthy and cultured. This little flot sam of philosophy Just about decides she is, but the matter is left to the au dience to decide for themselves. This will be the first time Portland will see- "Common Clay" and as it Is one of the most magazined and talked about plays of the past three seasons, more -than erdlnary interest should be attached to the production. Eleanor Montell will play the Jane Cowl role and Edward Horton the rich man's son.
