The Field program this year
brighter than ever. It is a bit new
in that it replaces much of t e old
time blackface stuff with modern
novelties. The settings for the first
part are splendidly brilliant. I’sing
the Mardi Gras idea, the while in
scenery, costumes and effects pre
sents » gorgeous spectacle.
trßeSwor. inimitable blackface
cimedian, was as funny as ever,
despite the fact that he repeated
much of his monologue offered at
the appearance of the dompany here
near the rlose of the season last
year.
A diverting feature was a hunt
ing scene, in which dancers appear
er] in costumes of bears, rabbits,
wolves, apes, etc , a veritable Uncle
Remus gathering.
Rody Jordan, who last year fur
nished a bright spot in Ciburn's Min
strel program, is now a highly enter
taining members of the Field com
ducer with the bass saxophone in
Carl Cameron's saxophone quartet.
‘Around the Wirld ir. Thirty Min
utes,” was a skit in right spectacular
scenes which offered an opportunity
for blackface fun corb'ned with
spectacles from various parts of the
dlrwo, all highly pleasing.
All the old favorites were present
in the cast besides Swor, Johnny
Healy being on hand with his aged
darky classic rendition of ‘‘Old Black
Joe,” Harry Shunk, Jimmie Cooper,
the dancing Doran brothers, Billy
Church, of the golden tenor voice,
Jack Richards, one of the sweetest of
singers, and a score of others.
The next attraction at the Rylan
der will be ‘‘The Bat,” Wagenhals
and Kemper’s great mfstery play by
Mary Roberts Rhinehart and Avery
HapwpQd. It is a play which has
won wide commendation for thrills
and pure entertainment qualities. It
has had a great run in New York
and Chicago, and has met with a
wide appeal where it has appeared
this season. It can be heartily rec
ommended. —W. S. K.

CONFESSIONS
OF A MOVIE
S FAR
- ■ ’ . . . .' 4S. MUM FOR
ME
1\
I - -**( is- *
■• • ■ Ba: I \mw h< was
r.g to her li.tle movie star.
T: -r< certainly w;>- a 'rule.* In
:a<t, there were several special stu-.
for me. Motherdear and
the ,-..t«- tor- nad manufactured them.
Souk of them eemed ridiculous to '
;hc o h< r girls of the company and
they look the utmost pains to tell me
Fi r i •.ample, if the company had
to werk later than the regluar hour
of closing he studios, the director
never failed to notify Motherdear.
And then the girls would make dis
agreeable remarks.
Personally, 1 never could see why
it was necessaiy to trouble the di
rector. Besides, nobody bothered
about how or when the o'her girls
went home. 1 had niy own car and I
my chauffeur and certainly a pro
, session isn't like society. A girl in
I any business has to get along as best
he can without a chaperone.
It seemed to me that if 1 were old
enough to earn a salary on which 1
hail to pay a surtax, 1 was plenty old
enough to take care of myself any
wncre.
When I asked Motherdear why this
studio rule applied only to me, she
answered:
"Dsmai on and I think it best,
dear 1”
If I had Io work until midnight, as
movie star- ometiines do, Mother
,'ear always cam,- to the studios to
take me home.
And if there wa a little supper in
honor of somebody’s birthday, I al
| ways had to refuse my invitation.
< ince z McMaster.-, the producer,
i ried to induce Motherdear to break
I the rule in his favor. He said that I
■ ought not to be cooped up so—that
I experiences like some other movie
'stars had would push me upward
I faster.
Motherdear got awfully flushed
[while McMasters talked, especially
J when he told her he would take care
|< f me at the party!
She took me straight home, and
she was always a little queer about
j McMasters after that, but she never
I would tell me' why.

Virginia Lady Suffered With Achei
and Pains Until Mother Began
Giving Her Cardui.
Dublin, Va. —Miss Mary Alice
Hugbett residing on Route 2, near
here, recently told a visitor of her
Interesting experience with Cardui.
Miss Hughett said: ‘‘l had been suf
fering for some time with painful . . .
I was pale, didn't feel like going.
Would just drag around, and couldn’t
rest to do any good. I would suffer
once a month with my back, sides
and head. My limbs would ache and
I didn't know what to do, but I knew
I must do something, for I didn’t get
well by letting it run on.
“My mother is a believer In Cardui, i
for she saw' what it did for others as
well as herself, so she began giving '
it to me.
“It wasn’t long before I saw a
change. It was just what I needed.
It regulated me. I began to eat and
sleep, and the pain stopped.
‘‘Cardui is without doubt the best
female tonic made, and I am glad 1
can recommend it to others.”
If suffering with symptoms such as
Miss Hughett mentions, or other all-I
ments peculiar to women, why not be
gin Cardui at once? Its merit is well
established by successful use for more ;
than 40 years.
I’ry Cardui!

That Walter Hiers, a nephew of

word brought back to Georgia by

“Arbuckle is ruined,” Mr. Hick;
