Actors clamor for your attention to a remote British problem in thjf Belmont Theatre. Arnold Bennett wrote "The Title" for an audience which knows as much about the King's New Year's honor list as you know about the humors of prohibition. And no doubt Mr. Bennett's play was as successful in London as would be a prohibition play here. The King of England inherits a habit of dealing titles to his worthiest subjects every New Year's day.

It is for his ministers to complete a list of recommendations for these honors for his HENRY MILLER'S Kt.K:-0. Mts.Thllrs.d'op.) Mt. at Si'iOj hT.K:-0. Mts.Thllrs.d'op.)

at La at runcn juuy By luiunui Majesty's approving inspection. It contains the names of the best Englishmen of all beliefs, politics, trades, professions and habits. A very good druggist may aspire to have his name on this list, if he can discover a new pill. If a poet invariably rhyme his verse, he can hardly hope to escape the birthday list. Supposing that Mr.

Hearst were English, Jie would surely find his name on it. So would Mr. the Shuberts, Mr. Chaplin, the man who rtivented rubber heels and both the Smith brothers. And then they would all be baronets and Sir William Hearst would pen editorials on the danger public safety of the present labor unrest.

Some of this is explained among the lengths of the first act of the play in the Belmont, but not quite enough to rouse the audience to that degree of insatiable interest in the peerage which might stir it to amusement during the remainder of the evening. The play is full of relishable bits about the English snobistocracy which you are not trained to understand. When Mr. Eulver of London hesitated between acceptance and rejection of the title offered to him, an Englishman in last night's audience laughed. It did the actors' hearts good to hear him.

As for "the acting, we have already noted that Actors clamor for your attention to a remote British problem in the Belmont Theatre. Julia Sanderson Still "WHAT DO MEN WANT?" I Produced by Lois Welter. Presented in the Lyric Theatre. THE CAST. Rallie Claire Windsor Frank.

J. Frank Gtendoti Vost Hallam Coolry Bertha Edith Kpler By McELLIOTT. What do they want, anyway? I thought Lois Weber was about to' answer this -burning question to my entire satisfaction, but I am not at all certain she did. She built up a precarious house of cards, tore it down and then pretended to make a smart facade once again from the ruins. However, her picture is immensely interesting, garnished by the "little feminine touches" which the more or less superior sex is inclined to pooh-pooh but which are telling and important just the same.

I enjoyed every minute of it, even while I quarreled with the sugar-coated philosophy Miss Weber attached to its termination. But what do they want? According to the author-producer, they principally desire the new, the A fillip to the appetite, a tartare sauce for the imagination! New sensations, new faces. Ihey are essentially variable, mobile, while the race of wives is essen-: tially placid, content to sit by the fire and spin. They weep when husbands are indifferent, sit up and fasten glazed eyes on the clock while their consorts frolic away happy hours at the country club with bobbed-haired houris who employ ostrich fans to coquettish advantage. When they are fatigued with the effort of playing around, they toddle home for the solid comfort of easy chair and meerschaum.

Then, according to this film, happiness descends, a large winged bird, on the household. This is, anyhow, what happens in the troublous married life 'of' Frank (J. Frank Glendon) and Hallie (Claire Windsor). Miss Windsor is so lovely, like a flower on a tall stem, that you are fearfully put out with Mr. Glendon for not taking due note of her charms.

"Demi-Virgin" Too Naughty for Rules In the opinion of Chief Magistrate McAdoo "The Demi-Virgin" is too risque for Broadway. After the accusers of the play had been heard the Chief Magistrate bound A. H. Woods, producer of the play, in $1,000 bail to await Special Sessions, on a charge of presenting "an impure and immoral" drama. AMUSEMENTS 48 St Thea.
