Jane Cowl Bringing
Modernized Juliet
To Grand Tuesday
( Uy Harry N. Craln)
Jiiiiti Cum cumi'a iu ou 1 tin nexi
Tuesday evening, bringing to the
theatregoers here that greatest
of love dramas, "Romeo and Jul
let."
Miss Cowl plays Juliet; Rollo
Peters , an exceptionally talented
young artist, Romeo, and their
performance at the Grand theatre
will be their only appearance in
Oregon.
Besides she has won for herself
the reputation of one of the great
est Shakespearian .interpreters on
the stage today.Jane Cowl has done
something else equally commend
able. She has modernized Shak
espeare, putting into it an appeal
that will go far towards returning
he works of that premier drama
tist to popular favor.
Writing in the San Francinco
Chronk-le during the recent appear
ance of the company there George
C. Warren says:
' Have we grown so accustomed
the Jazzing of every thing that
Inne Cowl's quick -paced produc
tion of 'Romeo nnd Juliet' seemed
normal lost night or has Miss Cowl
tempered the speed of the tragedy
more nearly to tradition? The
play moved as swiftly ns on its
first presentation here by this su
premely fine actross.
Mpa Cowl's Juliet has filled out
the spots where It lacked com
plete conviction, the parting scene,
the subsequent sceno with Capulet
and her mother, the wholo of the
scene with the Friar and the po-
Liim act: ne.
"The balcony scene remains
what it was, a love poem express
ed in terms as perfect as one may
ever hope to hear It read, and from
that point the characterization de
velops fullest beauty In the potion
scene, which Is taken now so that
It climaxes the tragedy, as It
should. Between these points there
are the pretty comedy of the col
loquy with the nurse In the gar
den, girlish finely thought out and
natural; the maidenly modesty of
the meeting with Romeo in the cell
of Friar Laurence, where the
rapture of love flashes In the rapt
gaze of the lovers as they go to
be married; the agony of the part
ing; the supreme emotion of the
interview with Laurence when Ju
Met seeks a way out of her tragic
perplexities, and then the heslta
tlon, the doubt, the terror, the pow
er of the potion scene, and ofter
these beaties the simple, direct,
direful tragedy of the death."
Another San Francisco critic,
Evelyn Wells, writes in the. Call
and Post:
'Eight hundred times this Juliet
has lifted the poleon potion to her
Hps and died to an audience's tears.
And still her playing was as fresh
ly sweet as on that first night in
New York when she was acclaimed
by critics there the Juliet of this
age.

TDURINE CAR
Half the pleasure of buying a motor
car rests in the conviction that you
have exercised a sensible choice.
That pleasure is shared by every
Dodge Brothers purchaser not alone
at the hour of purchase but ever
afterward.
His good judgment is confirmed by
everything that he continues to hear
about the car, and everything that it
does.

what to expect she did not dis
appoint them. Rut Rollo Peters
was different.
'Rollo Peters Is Romeo! Romeo
as he loved and suffered In Ver
ona, as Shakcaspeare knew him.
Somehow this young eon of our
best known California artist, Char
les Rollo Petors, la a delicious sur
prise for the West to have given
the stage. He is so many things.
Artist, designer, actor and now,
Romeo.
His is the heaviest, hardest role.
There is much good work in the
company, much fine acting. Jessie
Ralph, the nurse, brings delicately
controlled comedy to the drama
enough to make, never to distract.
Charles Brokaw, as Mercuto, wins
rounds of applause In his own
right, and Gordon Burby thunders
into magnificent parental anger as
Capulet. But Rollo Peters', work
makes one understand the splendid
attention he has been given to the
Bast."
A permit to ooerate in Oregon
was issued to the Hunt Brothers

(A. P.) Renewal of discussions
regarding substitution of words
In the second article of the apos
tles creed, appeared likely as the
synodical council of the Lutheran
Augustana synod met here today
to prepare the business to come be
fore its convention next week.
The synod last year voted to
substitute "hades" for "hell" Id
the apostles creed, as well as to
chango "holy ghost" to holy
spirit." Both changes were made
to conform to the American stand
ard version of the Bible, which
has been adopted as more accurate
than the King James translation.
The council r-nnounceil that the
substitution did not imply a re
pudiation of the doctrine of the
existence of hell, but related only
to the state of Christ following his
crucifixion and death.
