with the game as there was so much
to look at around her, some of the
boys being so happy like and celebrating the opening of the football
season.
"""Next some bright young thing suggests that we flock into the dining
room where they are dispensing tea,
which we all does; Most of the male
of the species has a very hard time
balancing them dainty tea cups but
we notice some are experienced at
this ordeal being what is known as
"tea hounds," though why on earth
they call them "hounds" I've never
figured out as a "hound' would most
certainly break his cup and send tea
to the four winds.
Tea being dispensed to this group,
the next herd comes in and the same
proceedings are repeated. Anyway,
open house on Sundays is fine for
the boys. They get to walk all around
sampling different teas and being en
tertained and have the excuse of not
taking the girls out because it is Sun
day and they are good Baptists and
believing in spending Sunday peace
fully and quietly musing over the won

Yes, sir! Open house is a great
invention. I'm all for it. Ask me no
questions and 111 tell you some lies

"Yes, lovely, looks like rain,

"Yeh, be a nice day tomorrow," adds
Akkie, "if it doesn't rain."
Now that the weather problem has

DIRECT

Among many new features which
will be included in the new Romany
theater now under construction, the
lighting system is one which represents to the greatest degree the trend
in the building of modern playhouses.
This theater will be equipped with a
system of lighting known as eclectic,
which has been used with great success in modern European theaters.
Professor Sax and John Tigert,
former electrician qf the Romany,
were singularly fortunate in being
shown through the Burg theater in
Vienna, of which Max Reinhardt is
director. The magnificient production, "Peer Gyn" was on, and the
entire nine scenes were run through
by the stage manager, so that Professor Sax and Mr. Tigert might have
an opportunity to become thoroughly
acquainted with the apparatus used
there. They were also shown through
the famous Art theater in Rome,
whose director is the well known
Lingo Perendella, where they observed the various apparatus for light
ing and the acousticon.
Unusual Lighting System
In the Romany, the dimer system
will control all lights on the stage.
Batteries of small spotlights can be
directed on any part or parts of the
stage, while the rest of it can be kept
in any degree of darkness or light
desired. Through these, faint beams
of light strike the players from several sources, thus doing away with
objectionable shadows. Other lights,
indirectly reflected from ground
glass mirrors or satin aluminum
plates will produce a soft glow, in
which one tone is dissolved into an
other. This same system with rearrangement is capable of producing strong lights and darks, when
Rembrandtesque effects are desired.
Most of the lights on the stage
are to be projected from the loft over
the auditorium so that the electrician
will be able to see directly, or through
mirrors, all parts of the stage and the
effects obtained. In most American
theaters the electrician is in doubt
about this. The lights in the auditorium of the theater will have for
their shades, large masks fashioned
from wrought iron.
Curtain Works in Three Ways
The new Romany curtain, is planned along novel lines. It will be
possible for this curtain to open or
close in three entirely different ways
It may be drawn up and lowered as
in the ordinary theater, drawn open
or closed as in the former Romany,
or be draped from the corner. The
advantages of the different methods
used in closing, are that in some
