It matters little whether you con
sier this the end of a perfect season
or the beginning of "a new one,
whether you are an old timer or one
of those casuals at the playhouse,
1
IE
you will be satisfied with "Made of
Money."
Porter Emerson Browne and Rich
ard Washburn Child, the w. k. au
thors, have evidently cast a discrimi
nating eye over a wide field. They
have evolved what at .ttrat glance ap
years to be one of those sure-fire suc
cesses. At last night's tryout at the Na
tional a brilliant audience accepted a
brilliant effort. For three fourths
of the way even the old timers were
credulous. During the entire route
the casuals were on edge.
If criticism might be offered it
would appear toward thefcend of the;
piece. Preachment frowns ever so
slightly upon obvious heart interest.
Briefly here's what happens,
Four
"types" of American men. a steel '
maen&te. Senator wln ncront nnrf a I
business man. are going back to the
city from a health sanatorium, in
the discussion in a smithy following
the breaking down of the bus. Dan
Hardy, the .steel magnate, bets $100.
000 against the others that he can
make what the 'world calls a success
out of anyone, and that he is backing
a principle. His bet is accepted. The
wine agent is to referee. The time
limit is ninety dayB. It is decided
to select the first one who comes into
the smithy. Then enters Mary Blake,
the village nobody, an English girl,
without parents, friends.
Hardy transforms the 'girl into a
princess, outfits her according to t.ie
mode, surrounds her with mystery,, a
retinue, everything that thp world
calls success. Hardy's Interest in the
girl Is subordinated, of course, to the
idea or winning his bet.
Mar- nialfA
j has played, meanwhile, a heavy think-
' ing part. When the time comes to
decide the bet, Tate, the wine agent,
leaves It to Mary Blake. Hardy sud
denly discovers that Mary Blake Is
possessed of a mind, a will and a few
ideas that had entirely escaped him in
the mad desire to show the wor.d
what a success was.
It is here that Mary Blake finally
wins the bet for Hardy.
Lynn Fontanne. destined to b
Broadway s newest star, is given full ance of the plans for the rescue of
play for the talent and charm which j the Due de Chateaubriand, some sub
captivated and held throughout tnejetituta must be captured somewhere

B. F. KEITH'S.
"Putting It Over."
That's the title of the musical com
edietta that a collection of doughboy
actors is presenting as, B. F. Keith's
headliner this week. ' And it's not
alone the title it's a fact.
Who carea if there isn't much plot
to the thing? There is plenty of
tuneful and peppy music and snappy
dancing an everything. John
Roche, of pleasing personality, gives
more than his, share of- song and
dance, while Conny O'Donnell is
clever in his take-offs And girls! t
on. George, what girls: Of course,
they have names like E. Albert

essentially masculine cognomens, but
nevertheless these soldier- boys wear

dancing better is' seldom seen on the
stage than that of Jack Mahoney and
William Pauly.
So much for the soldiers. They de
monstrate their right to top honors.
But let's not forget Xlna -Payne, who
as a danseuse is possesed of deserved
fame. She appears In a variety of
'colorful scenes and costumes and
gives a delicious -eries of symbolic
i dances with characteristic skill, tech
nique and grace.
Then, there's Ruth Budd. Rutb

Coming so closely on the heels of
