' .-. - "What Price Glory," a drama of war into which a seasoned ma rine, Laurence Stallings, and a great dramatist. Maxwell Ander son, have. poured their resentment of privation, and slaughter, and futile sacrifice of conflict, until a living picture ot war has been created, brutal and real in detail, was presented before an ample and enthusiastic audience at the Heilig theatre last evening. Of profanity, there was plenty; the cussing of the war days, but to focus attention upon that was to ignore the genuine purpose of the piece, which shows the conflict not a "mere playing with paper dolls," but a grim and dirty business. ' Exceptional talent was marked in the cast, from the convincing presentation of Captain Flagg. an old campaigner, characterized by, himself as an '"epoch making dis aster," to the unvanquished top sergeant, strong in his love, un forgiving in his enmity, but first and last a marine, ready and will ing to battle. " NAVY PICTURE COMING ARMY MAJOR TO SPEAK RETIRED . SALVATIONISTS TO RE HERE OVER WEEK-END . Major and. Mrs. A. W. McCurdy", Salvation- Army officers of ,25 years standing, now retired, from active service and living near Gates, Ore., will be guests of the local Army corps Saturday and Sunday, when they will conduct three . special meetings for the public, ,' The major and his wife have spent sixteen years of their Salva tion Army career as missionaries in India, during which time they were- in charge of settlements for criminal tribes, farm colonies, and Indian village district work. Mrs. McCurdy. prior to her Over the affections of Char maine, these two former com rades, each of whom at one time has "broken" the other in rank, manage to quarrel throughout the piece, victory being snatched from each when the company is forced to move into trenches. Of the college soldier, there is plenty, with all contrast In favor of the marine. The second act, a cellar in a disputed town, is gruesome enough, a real cross sec tion of men's lives under fire, full of humor, and drama and brave boys who, a moment later are "only a pack of bloody rags, and a pile of dirt." Wounded in action, the top ser geant returns to Charmaine only a few minutes before his company commander arrives, having been relieved at last in reward for the capture of a German officer, de manded by the staff. Sick with fatigue, the two rivals find their enmity smothered out when head quarters revokes the promised leave and the division moves back to the front.' "I don't know where we're go ing. Nobody does," is Captain Flagg's parting comment. "Which goes to show "it takest a lot of fools to pake a war," .calls Top Sergeant Quirt, as he races after his departing command. Throughout the piece, the audi ence responded with spontaneous bursts of laughter, and- genuine surges of sentiment. Of its kind t is a play well done, and was well received. 1 ' ' ..rTifn L Ramon Novarro, popular mov ing picture actor, is coming to the Hellfg theatre Saturday and Sun- I day in ' The Midshipman." marriage, was a trained nurse in her organization, and she will speak on her experiences in con nection with this work in India, also sing in several Indian lan guages.
