R WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, MARCH 13, 1924 "WARY THE 3RD" NEW GUILD PLAY North Shore Theatre Guild In Rehearsals on big Broadway Hit IS CROTHERS DRAMA Performances at Winnetka March 28 and 29 "Mary the Third" by Rachel Croth- ers will be the third production this year of the North Shore Theatre guild with Mrs. Laird Bell and J. Williams Macy of Winnetka playing two of the leading parts. The play will be given in Skokie school, Winnetka, March 28 and 29. The guild in presenting this comedy of twentieth century married life is con- tinuing its policy of presenting success- ful plays for the first time in the envi rons of Chicago. "Mary the Third" ran for five months last season in New York and was considered one of the biggest successes of the season. It play- ed on the road this season until recently but did not come to Chicago. It was ranked by Burns Mantle as one of the ten best plays produced in 1923 and a synopsis of the story is in his book. Miss Louise Huff, well-known in the moving picture world, played the part of Mary the Third. Miss Crothers is the author of "Nice People," "Old Lady 31," "The Little Journey," "He and She," "The Three of Us," and "39 East." All of these have enjoyed great success in Chicago. She is perhaps the most successful of modern women damatists and this pro- duction of her most recent play is a dramatic event in these parts. On Modern Marriage "Mary the Third" deals with the mod- ern marriage as contrasted with the mar- riage in the past. Beginning with a prologue in 1870, it shows Mary the First marrying on a blind, impulsive, nat- ural basis; in a second prologue we see Mary the Second accepting a man on no other grounds than that she loves him. In the play, Mary the Third is about to choose one of two boys to marry. She, however, decides she is ~ not going to accept either one in a blind, groping manner, but rather she is going t an experiment by "living with {them both for many weeks. The cul- mination of this plan brings a climax in the married life of her mother, Mary the Second, and her father. We see the married relationship of the 1870 match 25 years after it was made. We hear from Granny (Mary the First) of the manner in which she held her lord. Mary the Third proposes and insists upon doing differently. Fortified with all the arguments of free love, of married independence, and new thought, she at- tacks all conventions and the proprieties of mother and grandmother, only to suc- cumb completely when the big moment arrives to exactly the same method that grandma and mother used. Alas! poor girl, she had fallen in love! The play is filled with much comedy and yet there is an interesting story rising to a big climax and a most sat- The characters of the three generations are well drawn. Hiers, Coogan Star in Community House Films Next week's motion picture pro- gram at Community House promises to be one of unusual interest to Win- netkans. On Tuesday, March 18, Walter Hiers, Paramount's plump comedian, will be featured in "Sixty Cents An Hour" and Friday, March 21, "Circus Days" with Jackie Coogan will be offered. In "Sixty Cents An Hour," Hiers, as the corpulent soda dispenser, takes his girl, played by Jacqueline Logan, for an auto ride at "Sixty Cents An Hour" and things begin to happen like sixty too. It took old Tutankhamen three thousand years to get talked about, but Walter Hiers name will be on everyones lips overnight when this picture is shown. "Circus Days" with the inimitable Jackie Coogan is taken from "Toby Tyler"--James Otis' celebrated story of circus life It is a picture that is certain to please all kinds of "chil- dren"--from six to sixty and it is declared to be the most elaborate mo- tion picture dealing with circus life that has ever been filmed. There will be matinees at 4 and eve- ning shows at 7:15 and 9 on both days. Children not accompanied by and seated with adults are requested to attend the matinees where special music is provided to accompany the picture--at a reduced admission price of fifteen cents. DOG AND AUTO FEES DUE Payment of Winnetka vehicle and dog license fees are due at this time and Chief of Police Peterson is preparing to get after the delinquents in this re- gard. March 15 is set as the "deadline" for license fees. After that--well, look out for the cops, that all! SENATOR ESSINGTON TO SPEAK HERE MONDAY (Continued from page 1) furthered by peaceful and amicable relations. between the employed and the employer. (d). Legislation in the interest of the women of Illinois, recognizing and establishing their rights, conserving their health, pro- tecting their children, has found in . Pras Sen. T. G. Essington him an unswerving friend. The aged, infirm, the cripples, the blind, the widow and the orphan have had in him an ardent advocate. (e). His record in the senate has been for a sound, economic and comprehensive hard road program. The mandate of the people at the referendum upon the hard road question will be faith- 'ully followed by Essington. (f). He has opposed and condemned the wreck- ng by Governor Small of the Civil Administrative Code established un- der Governor Lowden, the destruction of the Civil Service system, the over- *hrow of the pensions for aged and faithful employes, the enormous in- crease in taxes and appropriations, the placing of hundreds of politicians upon the state payrolls for the pur- pose of perpetuating the Small machine, the sale of licenses for surgeons. physicians, dentists and nharmacists, the corrupt and venal abuse of the power of the pardon and parole which has enriched favored lawyers, overths the verdicts of our juries and our highest courts, and has given liberty to convicted felons of the most dangerous and lowest type--the gunmen, the panders, the traitors who strove to tear down our country when her soldiers were at war. (g). He has stood for law and order and the protection of nersonal and property rights in the spirit of our ~onstitution and our laws. (h). He has been through two contests with Governor Small in his last primary fight and in his last election and has won both. He knows how to fight the Small machine and how to best beat it" Lowden Indorsement "Strong indorsements have come from all parts of the state. "Former Governor Frank O. Lowden writes : "'Senator Essington is an able lead- er of untarnished reputation and T believe his candidacy will appeal to the people of Illinois who wish a clean and efficient administration of public affairs. He came into the senate during my term as governor. He at once imnressed me as a man of unusual ability, of excellent poise, with an earnest desire to give the nublic service the best that was in him. Before the end of the session I predicted that higher honors were surely in store for him. I am heartily in favor of his nomination and shall give him my cordial support."" Has Sherman Support : "From former United States Sena- tor Lawrence Y. Sherman, we have this: "'Whenever Senator Essington has been tried in places of public trust he has done his whole duty faithfully and courageously. He is worthy of the confidence of his fellow men and the nomination.' "Mrs. Louise De Koven Bowen, national Republican committee woman for Illinois, gives this word for Mr. Eesinaton : "Tt is a matter of rejoicing to the women of this state that Senator Fssineton will head the allied forces in the primary. Senator Essington has alwavs been most friendly to women's interests.' "The Cook county convention which met last October indorsed Senator Essington's candidacy for governor."
