W. C. A, is the president of | this Alumnae club, and is responsible for this unusual opportunity of mak- ing money. All of the seats in the house have been turned over to the members of Pi Beta Phi who are selling them. A certain amount must first be turned over to the Goodman theatre, and all made over that sum goes for the bene- fit fund. The Little Pigeon Settlement school was established in 1912 by Pi Beta Phi, and the first attendance showed only thirteen pupils. The school has grown now until it includes about 125 pupils. In connection with it there has been founded the Jenne Nicol Memor- ial hospital; and -a real community center has grown up around the little school. The entire school is main- tained by this women's fraternity. The third year of high school has recently been added to the curriculum: The play running at the Goodman Theatre is "Penelope," which stars Miss Alexandra Carlisle, a Chicago Artist. The Goodman theatre is located direct- ly east of the Art Institute, and is Call up for Experienced Service.

Members of the Active chapter of Pi Pasta Phi from Northwestern uni- versity are selling some of the tickets. Miss Mae Morey of Evanston, is in charge of this. The girls will sell candy at this performance, the proceeds of which go to their House fund. The tickets may be obtained from any of the active chapters. In case any are left, these will be sold at the door for the same price. Stage Notes Two of the several Shubert theatres in Chicago are now housing what ap- pear to be "hits," and reports indicate that a third is about to join them. At the Prineess a comedy of exten- sive proportions is attracting consider- able attention. Here, "Ned McCobb's Daughter" tells the comedy story of mother love overcoming all obstacles, including a bootlegger and his money. Nearly everything happens 'to the daughter, including a case of measles for her children but she triumphs in the end. The leading man, John Cald- well, also scores a triumph in his in- terpretation of the bootlegger. In fact he is the outstanding thing to be re- membered in a worth-while evening. The second hit appears at the Olym- pic where a very large cast presents Sam Harris' play, "We Americans." In it, parents of foreign origin find their children 'léayving home because they have naught in"common with their fathers" and mothers. 'The latter, not to be outdone, find their 'opportunity in a neighborhood night-school and win in the end. Many of the best comedy mdments are found in an act devoted to a' session of this night schoo! where Jew, Irish, "Italian, Chinese and Negro join forces for a higher education. At the Apollo, the Shuberts are pre- senting for the first time outside of New York, their Casino de Paris revue, "A Night "in Paris" in which Jack Pearl, Jack Osterman, Barnett Parker and a host of others deliver a revue which is packing, them in and lined "em up in front of thé box office. Three other Shubert houses are play- ing to profitable audiences, "Vagabond King" running on and on at the Great Northern, "Howdy King" making them laugh at the La Salle and "Yes, Yes, Yvette" giving full measure at the 4 Co- hans: --Thespian.
