a- 'i 1 The rtedmond Players staged their new show yesterday at the Wigwam Theater. It Is called "The Bride's Nest" and is built In a fashion calculated to win laughs and applause. The story is a series of fun-provoking complications and the comedians of the cast have every desired opportunity to provoke the risibilities of the audience to a most unusual degree. Richard Allan and charming Terqueta Courtney are seen and heard in the leading roles, with Ed Redmond as fun-maker-ln-chlef.

However, "The Circle" is not a solemn lesson to wives. Far from that! It is the jolliest kind of a comedy, and the players, particularly Mr.

The beach at Pacific City la nearly half a mile long and the only on of its kind on San Francisco peninsula.

Situated six blocks from Burlingame station, Pacific City will be easily accesaible to Fn.n Franciscans for an outdoor bathing re-suit on this side of the bay. With exeellent transportation facilities and a location in a fog-free reKlon, the new enterprise seems assured of success, and it Is receiving the enthusiastic endorsement of amusement experts from various sections of the country who have visited the site and observed the tremendous work of construction 'that has been goinfr on during the past four months. These men point out that Los Angeles has more than fifteen beaches, that New York has f'lrty and Chicago twenty.

FANNY HURST FILM AT TWO THEATERS Veteran Irish" Acitor Is Dead Japs Say U.S. Films Are Wicked Mm i Mill i hi "rvf i i Ik BY THOMAS NUNAN. Sitting together during a third-act episode of "Th Circle." John Drew as Lord Porteous and Mrs.

Leslie Carter In the guise of Lady Catherine examine a photograph of the latter as she appeared thirty-five years ago. ''Isn't it hateful to grow old!" exclaims the still beautiful Lady Catherine. "You haven't changed much," replies Lord Porteous. "You've rather matured." These lines, like many others In the play, seem to have heen written especially for Mr. Drew and Mrs.

Carter, so well they fit. Mrs. Carter has matured; but she hasn't" changed much. 'Tis extraordinary how they keep young," Bays one of the principals, speaking descriptively of the two matured stars before they make their first entrance. And of Lord Porteous: "He used to wear his clothes so well! He wollld be prime minister if he had stayed in England." John Drew still wears clothes in characteristic elegance.

And if not prime minister, he would certainly be Sir John if England were his home. "The Circle," In which this actor and Mrs. Ieslle are starring at the Century, is a big, meajiingful comedy. In which Maugham points out through lines surrounded by laughter the penalties that follow when a woman runs away from home and husband on account of another man. This English playwright, a good deal of a philosopher and a true observer, does not emphasize the lesson that a woman must not thus run sway; and he makes it clear by means of a second elopement that she will run away when she knows penalties just as readily as when she doesn't.

He merely tells what happens. "While you hold the man's love. It Is one thing." explains the older eloper. Lady Catherine, to the little wife about to elope, "but when ymi begin to lose it, that's another." This is the substance of the speech. If not the exact wording.

Lady Catherine is lu these lines Impressing on her son's wife, Elizabeth, the young woman about to elope, the practical advantage of marriage as a protection when love begins to wane. It's no Joke when you have to rely on yourself to hold a man," she adds. The things that she says to Elizabeth, with confessions from her own experience, often bitter, are worthy of every woman's attentive thought. They deeply impress Elizabeth but she elopes, just the same. The right of love to assert itself with a claim superior to that of legal marriage without love Is not overlooked by Maugham; but the playwright has treated it discreetly and with due regard to British con-vention.

He shows the consequences that follow thf assertion of this right, but he alows the heroine CINCINNATI (C. June 20. William T. Sheehan. actor, died St his home here laat night.

Betty Llnley plays Elizabeth with Halliday as her lover and Robert Rendel as her husha nrt. Mr.

Drew has sn admirable role, thai of the gruff old fellow who eloped with the beautiful ladyCath-erlne thirty years befor and who now has brought her'tack to visit his friend, her husband, and the letter's son. Whs a merry situation that visit brings about In the Maugham view of it! "I have a naturally cheerful dis-posltioiC insists the long-abandoned husband, in one of the conversations. "You never had anything to sour It!" grouehtly retorts John Drew. Another bit of the repartee: THE HISHAND: "After all, I am the Injured party." I-ORD PORTEOI'S: the devil are YOU the Injured party?" entire play Is well out of the commonplace. It is splendidly written, splendidly acted.

Everybody who knows contemporary drama it all must know "The Circle." And we will never be given another opportunity, I suppose, to learn It from such agreeable Interpreters as are now at the Century. One of our greatest present-day privileges in connection with the stage is to see John Drew. Another Is to see Mrs. Leslie Carter.

Winthrop Ames, the well known producer tind one time director of the New Theater In New York, has given permission to the director, Samuel J. Hume, to produce during the first season of the Theater Guild the brilliant comedy, "The Truth About Blayds," by A. A. Milne, author of "Mr. Pirn Passes By." This play, which Mr.

Ames Introduced to the United States, has been one of the outstanding successes of the season in New York and is still being played to large audiences at the Booth Theater. Mr, Ames" permission to present the play here before it has exhausted Its New York season or been sent "on the road" runs counter to all managerial tradition and must be taken as an evidence of deep interest In the new organization. Ames says In a letter to Mr. Hume that "the plan Is the right one and It could not be in OPENS JULY 1st MT. PAILT at S5e 5r WBSINOS at M5 to J1.S5 "The Good Provider' has more nu-man quality about it than any other pioture seen in months.

"The Good Provider," which features Vera Gordon and Dore Davidson, is an acknowledgment of the family debt to the father, to the man who provides all the creature tomforts, a long-suffering man about whom it has not been the custom to grow sentimental. Mr. Davidson's portrayal of the kindly, loving, unselfish Julius Blnswanger is as touching and able a screen performance as has ever been done. Miss Gordon, of course, is still the inimitable mother, and Miriam Bat-tista again Is the winsome darling little girl. Vivienne Osborne, a beautiful girl, contributes grace, sweetness and ability and others in the 'cast are William (Buster) Collier John Koche, James Devlne, Blancho Craig.

Rothacker, whose laboratories do Chaplin's developing and printing, estimates that about BOO miles of positive film 1 ave been printed from the negatives of "The Kid." In these BOO miles possibly 40,000,000 little im-rges of Chaplin appeared.
