This is the first professional appearance of both, though they have appeared in mnaleur productions.

The American tour will include all of the principal cities. "Broadway," the drama hy Philip Dunning and George Abbott, which is being presented under the segis of Jed Harris, enters ils fifth week of record breaking business in Detroit. This fehriho fHhle of the cabarets is being shown at Ihe Garrick Tbealre where its average weekly business during its stay in Detroit has been over Slti.lXHI, a figure grossed by few dramatic productions in New York.

Helen Hayes, who has been louring in Barrie'a "What Every Woman Knows." sails for Europe shortly for a summer's vacation.

Miss Huyes is under contract to Jed Harris, who will star her next season in "Coquette," a play written by George Abbott and Ann Preston Bridgera. By MRS. ANNA B. SCOTT RECENTLY 1 came across a liok calbil "Conking Without Mother's Help." It brought this to toy mind: "Why should not the school girls, who take cooking lessons in the sivth, seventh or eighth grades, get. a meal without mother's help, at least once a week? Mothers arc often to blame that their daughters are not fond of cooking and know very little about it when they enter their own homes." This is a remaik that I have often heard mothers make: "I Ih.

I do not want them to fuss and mess up the kitchen. I would rather do it myself That mother is making a mistake. The teacher in the school must and does take time and patience to show her students; then why should noi the mother do the same? (tne of ihe most important things in life is to IcHrn how to eat to live and ill order to do that, one must know-how to cook and serve the meals. It is up to the mother to help plan the meal, hut have the girls get it. Most girls will he happy and proud if mother can say: "Mary prepared this meal.

Mary can make biscuits, muffins, cakes and rookies, and the dressing for the salad." For the benefit of the mothers who want their daughters to learn, I am giving the following menu and suggestions on how to begin. Also a few recipes: n'in Si'iie Creamed Ilrlist lict'f v-IOt Tenit lVlnt i shhaire SnU'l Winn Crcitm yiiifrtn Pillf-muUe with Mill, nr Tel BEAM ROUP Why not a good cup of nutritions soup for the noon or evening There are many kinds that, me easily ami quickly made. Let me suggest Ihe ever-popular bean soup, which is made from a can of baked beans. First we will gather the utensils: 'iitnrl Hiiritnin Wu, Nlrmm-r aii't win-tier Purine knife ami can openi-r on sot loiE tup. 'J 1 nittlfitl'noii Place all on table; then place the supplies: inn uf halo-if bean I Html) ntiion Sail and tiiMMe'r; enrnstao tt Parxlry ltd tMiiittrv seasonlnf 1 MliN'npnull itnentliKS (tMn the can ot baked beans, then place the strainer over saucepan and pour the beans in strainer; niiish through strainer.

Fill the can with cold witter nnd pour slowly through the strainer so as to get, nil from the beans (there must be nothing in the strainer lint the hulls from the beans). If the beans are canned with a small piece of pork, Ihat is mashed through the strainer nnd no drippings are added to the soup. Place the saucepan over slow fire, add two cups of skim milk or water and bring to a boil; add one tablespoon grated or scraped onion, one level teaspoon salt, one-eighth teaspoon pepper, one tablespoon finely chopped parsley, or one-half teaspoon poultry seasoning; lioil live minutes. Next mix one tablespoon cornstarch with three tablespoons cold water until smooth nnd add to the boiling soup; boil three minutes. Put the soup in top of double -boiler over boiling water until ready to serve.

P. S. A can of corn or pens may be prepared in almost Ihe same way. CREAMED DBfED BEEF WITH TOAST POINTS Next we have the creamed dried beef, but before we begin, the utensils which were used for the soup should be washed nnd put in their places he-fore the utensils for the creamed dried beef arc brought out. For it we will need: A shallow saucepan or seven-inch trypan, measuring cup, tablespoon and toaster.

The materials needed are; ihiiitiiI ilriM beir 2 leMl tiilUi'MHMinB ef haeon enptiln. butter or lialf buttrr and half bncun (It'tlH)lllBN 2 levfl tatilfdciena flnnr 1 enrm eoiij mill! 3 ltrea et hreiol. loaat and rut each file into four tiiecoa illaBimull.v Put the drippings or butter into pan over slow fire; when melted ndd the dried beef, which has been tallied into small pieces and mix well with the fat; remove from tire and add the flour; mix again until the flour adheres to the dried beef; return to fire and ndd the cold milk slowly, stirring constantly so that there will be nn lumpy grnvy. Lei it, cook slowly three minutes. Put the pun in warm place until ready to serve.

Then pour on chop plate and surround with eight toast points. The toast can he made on electric lousier or on broiler. Remove the crust nnd cut before tousling the bread. P. S.

No sail or pepper is needed, as the dried beef seasons Ihe gravy. CREAM MUFFINS First of all, it is very important to get the necessary utensils together before you on the table. Next get the supplies needed for the recipe. In this menu we are using the plain cream muffin. The utensils needed are: Two-quart mixing bowl, egg beater.

Hour sifter, two one-half-pint measuring cups, one for dry and one for liquid; one teaspoon, one tablespoon snd an ngnte soup plate or small bowl to beat the eggs; muffin pan or pans for twelve muffins, brush to grease the pans, or a piece of tissue toweling, spatula or knife, nnd a small pan for melting the shortening. Place these utensils neatly nn the tHble, then get the supplies Ihat are needed for the muffins: rati floor 2 letH t-HinoonB haVinK salt '2 tflhlpsiwionn toiear I cup milk 3 tBhli'KpoenB fbortcmng 1 First grease the muffin pans thoroughly; next sift the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar into bowl, next add the milk and melted shortening and mix lightly; then add the egg, which has been beaten until light; mix nil lightly together. Fill muffin pans about two-thirds full. Place in oven (4l HI degrees and bake 25 to HO minutes. Remove from pans once.

Place in bowl which is lined with clean napkin or towel and cover and place on warming shelf until ready to serve. PINEAPPLE WITH MARRHM ALLOWS Here is very simple dessert which is easily made; the utensils needed are: tine quart bowl, can opener, kitchen snssors, tablespoon and teaspoon. The materials needed are: srtoill eruftjen pltletlm le IIiiIIit: re'l jllT Open the can of pineapple and pour inlo howl: then cut six mnrshmallons into small pieces wilh scissors that have been rubbed with a little butter; next put the marshinallnw into the crushed pineapple and mix well. Pour into glass bowl, or ice crenm glasses and garnish the top with a teaspoon of rfd jelly. Set in cold place until ready to serve.

HOW TO PREPARE THIS LUNCHEON First: The cabbage is cut and put inlo cold water and set aside. The lettuce is cleaned and cut and put into cold water. Then clean and put away the cabbage cutter and knife. Second: Prepare the dessert nnd put it into the refrigerator until ready lo serve. Dispose of the can; replace the scissors and glass of jelly.

Third: Make ihe soup Hnd put it Into the top of double boiler; place on back of range until ready to serve. Fourth: Make the muftins. After putting them in Ihe oven, wash the bowl, measuring cup and spoons nnd put in their plnces. Fifth: Prepare the creamed dried beef and toast. Then clean up all pans and spoons and put into their places.

Sixth: Get the soup cups, platter for the dried beef, plnte for muflins. also the serving plates and place on warming shelf. By this time your llieai is filMs'ned and icjol.v lo serve. The soup is served first in the warm cups. The creamed dried beet is arranged on the platter or chop plate and garnished wilh the toast poiuts.

WOOLLCOTT tow she gets an audience made up entirely of people whose spiritual home is the Winter (isnleu, to which they (and she. I fanc ileiouily wish they had gone instead. entirely. Hut do mean that, plaulcd in the thick of the long sheltered players from the Neighborhood will sifch more than once for the days when their pal rous sought them out instead, as so often, I think, is the case with our Broadway playgoers of being pushed into the theatre because there is no more room out ou the sidewalk. Playnoing Becoming Difficult Peliherute, ca'-cfnlly-aiined playgo-ing is hemming more and niore diffi cult in New York, as, for that matter, mere Iking is.

It is not only that the Haunting broadsides of sixty playhouses make picking and choosing a parlous matter. The very getting from your dinner table to yu'ur seat on the aisle is a journey fraught with peril. The greal city has flung its towers to the ustonislied stars. Hi prodigies of building, it is now possible for thou-ands of people to dwell, layer on layer, the same block where only a few score of people lived twenty years ago. Hut the thousands must somehow use the same lanes and footways which used to serve the mere handful of yesteryear.

Wherefore each night now lor miles around Times Square sees the streets clogged with sii'-h preposterous and self-defeating traftie as one used to encounter only on the day of the Army and Navy game. And Now for Vermont It used to he a pleasant thing to dine at Ihe Cafe Martin and. afterwards, lake a hansom to the Kmpire to see Maude A lums, in "The Little Minister." Nothing so Iramiiiil, nothing so leisurely is possible today. You either crawl through maddening traftie that sometimes takes more than three-quarters of an hour to move a half mile or you take to your heels and try your luck on the sidewalk, in which case you arrive at the theatre door a little sootier hut feeling somewhat as if you had been shopping for several hours in department store the week before Christinas, either event is a battered, nerve-wracked playgoer who sinks nt last into his seat, just in time for the second net. Then the play unfolds to the incidental music provided free of charge each night by the tooling of Ihe iiiiloniohile horns and the whistles of Ihe Inxi-sturlers in the street outside.

During Ihe matinee this orchestration is interestingly enriched by Ihe interweaving motif of Ihe riveting machines at work next floor and across the street, on a lot of nice new theatres. I find myself wondering why Ihe "Grand Street Follies" ever left the dingy pence of distant Grand street or why people go to lint theatre at all in New York. I write this pastoral letter the last, of the season Willi my mind already traveling along a white road that lends to the side of a lake in Vermont. There is an island in that lake which looks as if Max-liel l'arrish had drawn it, and left it there absent-mindedly. 1 am handed forlhnl island.

No more lunatic snarls of traffic, no more hrenthing of air that someone else has nlrendy breathed several limes, no more uproar of taxi-liorns anil riveters. Hut I wonder what "The Mikado" will lie like when Win-throp Ames stages it, in the fall mid what play will ring up the Theatre Guild's curtain in September. railroad story, "Tell It to Sweeney," in which George Bancroft and Chester Couklin will make their debut as a comedy team. Kerry Clarke, Percy Heath and Eugene de Rue wrote the original story. "My Best Girl," personified by Mary Pickford, donned her make-up and stepped into the "five-and-ten" fon her first day's work early this week, according to word from the I niterl Artists' Studio.

"My Best Girl'' is Miss Pickford's newest photoplay, and the first scenes tnken show Miss Pickford as a stock girl in a tive-iind-tfii-cent store lugging agate stew pans from the basement In main Moor counters. The action required that she fall down with her burden of pans, ami in order to get the funniest effect she fell down fifteen times. Ray Enright has been rained to direct Kin-Tiu-Tin in his first picture ou Ihe Warner Brothers' programme for next year. This will be "Jaws of Steel," adapted by Charles Condon from the slory by Gregory Rogers. Mr.

Enright directed the celebrated canine star in his Inst Warner picture "Tracked by the Police." Lupino Lane's latest comedy, "Monty of the Mounted." has been completed for release. It, is SHtire on the numerous dramatic feature pic- Hi-en in wmco ine nero ot tne Itoval Mounted Police "gets bis man." This comedy shows Lane as a raw recruit, in the Mounted Police of Canada, who is sent, out on dangerous mission after many others have failed. Kslell Bradley is cast as lending lady, while Wallace Lupino is the villain. Snlly Blnne, who was Betly Jane Young before she grew up sufficiently to be Wallace Beery's leading woman in the James Cruze comedy, "The Big Sneeze," has been signed to a new contract by Paramount. She was recently selected as one of Paramount's lfli7 junior stars and is now working in "Rolled Stockings," the youth picture directed by Richard Ros-son.

Harold Lloyd has determined upon the story for his next production, a story possessing New York background, which will take him to the Eastern metropolis for at least four weeks during the heightli of the baseball and Ihe Coney Island season. Both the Yankee stadium and the world's greatest amusement centre have important settings in the new Lloyd story. H. M. Warner, president of Warner Brolliers Pictures, has signed Joseph Rosenblatt, the greatest Cantor in America, if not in the world, to appear in "The Jazz Singer." the first feature to be filmed with the Yitsphone as an integral part of the production.

Cantor Rosenblatt, is to appear as a singer not as an actor. Luther Reed, director of Florence Vidor, in "The World at. Her Feet," was a scenarist when he was given the opportunity to direct. Adolphe Menjou. in "The Ace of Cads." He followed up this success with "New York" nnd "Evening Clothes," starring Adolphe Menjou.

The Longacre Theatre in Ihat city has been leased for a long lime, and complete programmes, averaging ten operatic, dramHtic and vaudeville numbers, will be shown, starting the end of June. The same problem that confronted Edw in Carewe in his search for a "Prince Dimitri" for "Resurrection." stares the producer in the face with regard to the torihiouiing filming ot "Rnmona." Once again he is in a dilemma insofar as his male support is concerned. Rod La Rooejue saved the situation in (lit Tolstoy story. BY ALEXANDER XKW YOKK.

June 4. On Sunday night of this week, they rung down the curtain at the Neighborhood and all. for the subvention wbii'h made that valiant outlying theatre possible has been withdrawn. The fun-well performance whs intended by us iniiny dev otees uk I'oulil park themselves into the small tiuuitoriuin. and for a long time there hud been sueh uu an-tioipntory deiuand lor souls Unit when, through the absenoe of some subscriber in F.urope.

a pair would be turned back, nothing less public tin pitching penuies in the lobhv was eoiiMilered an adeiiiiile menus of ijeeiding to whom Ihe.v should he allotted. The finale, besides being a pageant of the most fit miliar puppets that, have tinted m-ross that stiige in the past dozen scions, included for this lust performance the very doorman who took the tickets, the inn who stoked the furnace, and the girls who used to explain over the telephone that there were no more seats to be hnd. On Tuesday night, the troupe moved their I'lirrent "Grand Street Follies" up to the Little Theatre, the pretty playhouse in Forty-fourth street, whieh now looks like nn abashed woodshed behind the Babylonian towers of the new Paramount Theatre thus trying their somewhat delicate, wares on the more haphazard audience which drifts into any theatre that stands at the crossroads of the world. It was the whole point of the remote Neighborhood that it was miles from any other theatre, so far easi of Broadway in Grand street that the critics never recovered from their periodic surprise at finding themselves actually there. I he joke about there being only one taxi driver who knew where the theatre was wore pretty Ihin through the years and in the last will and testament of the theatre, solemnly rend aloud in the current "Follies," thst joke was grave ly bequeathed to Alan Juile as the one who had used it most, with the further clause that if he hnd no further use for it, he was at liberty to bestow it wher ever he liked.

But there is this to be said in behalf of an out-of-the-way theatre. The play there ensconced may not he sure any audience is coming at all, hut at least it has the comfort of knowing that those who do come are presumably eager for the entertainment offered. The Neighborhood, originally built as a wing of the Henry Street Settlement, long since gave up pretending to serve only that part, of town, and drew its patrons from the four corners of the city. Not, long ago that sprightly gazette, The New Yorker, published a cartoon of one of its audiences, all fear fully elegant and wearing dressier-than- thoii expressions, the while they recoiled with pained astonishment at the advent of a bewhiskered pushcart vendor from the Grand street curb. The drawing was entitled "One of the Neighbors Goes to the Neighborhood." This facetious cartoon was only a teasing exaggeration of the truth.

There May Be Renrels Now, however, the troupe moves uptown to Broadway, where audiences seep in from the endless glacier of traffic in the cross streets, going to this play instead of that because the clerk at the cigar stand in the hotel had spoken well of it, or, more probably, going to fhis play instead of that because thpy could not get seats to that. I do not mean that in the ensuing confusion when Mrs. Fiske plays "Ghosts" in our "The Tender Hour," produced by George Fitzmaurice and with Billie Dove and Ben Lyon in the two leading roles, will be the screen feature next week at the Stanley Theatre. Alex B. Francis and Montague Love have important roles.

"Camille," modernized for the screen, now becomes Norma Tal-madge's crowning achievement. "The finest screen performance of all time." is the tribute paid to Miss Talmadge bv motion picture critics. Produced bv Joseph 51. Shenck and directed by I IV.rf "f' lllo" ii ii unusually strong cast in support of the star. It will be shown nt the Stanton Theatre beginning June J3.

"Frisco Sally Levy." Metro- Goldwyn-Mnyer's fun-plus picture featuring the vivacious Sally O'N'eil, conies to the Fox Theatre. It is a brilliant comedy romance of family life in a big city. Its scenes are laid in Sun Francisco. Sally is the storm centre of a Jewish-Irish home. Her father is Jewish, her mother es Irish as Erin.

It. is screamingly funny entertainment, yet there are tugs at the heart Btrings, too. "The Fire Brigade." in which there is a most spectacular fire in an orphanage with rescue of many persons, will be seen the week of June at the Globe Theatre. A portion of the receipts will go to firemen relief organizaztions. A new type of mother love story is told in "Broadway Nights," a colorful story of the theatre, that will lie seen the week of June IS at the Karlton.
