Seine From the Great Book Play, "TW Winning of
Barbara Worth."
We have been told that the pub-'
lie Is bete g weaned away from the
regular theatre. That vaudeville
and moving picture are supplanting
the spoken drama. There Is no
gainsaying the fact that for the past
three years Inferior plays, especially
t hoe? dealing with forbidden topics,
also so-called "musical comedies"
with choap. tawdry costumes and
poor equipment have had hard sled
ding, and at present, that sort of
i entertainment Is practically obso
| lete. Bat the love for that which
I? good and wholesome In the spok
en drama did. not die and never will.
The wonderful ?uccees of " The
Winning of Barbara Worth," Mark
E. Swan's dramatisation of Harold
Bell Wright's bright, breezy story
Is sn example of the survival of the
ttttest. Not In recent years haa a
play met with such Instantaneous
success. Admitting that the tre
mendous sales and great popularity
? of tie book is the principal factor
In attracting such crowds to the box
office, there Is also that Intangible
something fn the title of the play
with Its suggestion of a strong love
Interest, too. Gertrude Barker plays
Barbar?." She la winaome and at
tractive, not merely pretty. The
supporttn gcompany, headed by
Theodore Hardy. 1m one of the
strongest on the road. The scenery
la all that it should be. The.open
ing scene. La Palma de la Mana da
Dloa. (The Hollow of God's Hand)
Is a marvel of stage realism. The
?and storm, which cloaea -the pro
logue la a triumph of mechanical
aklll. "The Winning of Barbara
Worth" comes to tb* New Theatre
tonight with the atrongeat endorse
ment, and a delightful treat la In
store for all. Indications point to a
packed houae, for seldom ha* an at
traction been better advertised.
