THEY.M.C.A. AND PROS.

Working hand in hand! The Profession and the Y. M. G. A.f What do you think of that? It was such a short time ago that It almost seems like sresterday when f>ractlcany all churchmen and most church* goers looked askance at actors! The good people of the community regarded them as an irrererent and wicked lot given to msmterious evil rites and prac¬ tices—a class as separate and wholly apart as Gypsies and as clannish. Perhaps they did not actually believe that the players, as many a prelate and evangelist of that day charged, were actually In secret league with the Prince of Evil, but they did think they were a Godless, UIdoing, cabalistic crew whose ways were dark and mysterious and who constituted a sinister menace to the morals of the youth of the land. Now all is changed. And the change, though it arrived softly and very quietly, was so sudden and unexpected that the players at least are dazed. Yea, even doubting in many instances. For, having rapidly frisked each himself and then looked about and appraised his fellow strtists, it Is not apparent that it is the pro. that has changed—not greatly. He is pretty much the same happy-go-lucky, warmhearted, generous, sympathetic, careless chap as of yore. If anything he is a little braver, a little less selfish and more self-sacrificing, a little better informed and consequently broader. Perhaps he is a little more closely devoted to his art, and, mayhap, the war has rendered him a bit graver. But that is all. * There never was much the matter with him save that he walked alone and was little understood. He craved hospitality in his wanderings end sought it, not from those who looked upon him with misgiving or fear, you may be sure, nar from those who viewel him with suspicion and distrust, but where it was offered. It is ten to one that it was an actor who scratch^ the now world famous window pane quatrain: Whoe’er has traveled life’s dull round. Where’er his stages may have been. May sigh to think he still has found The warmest welcome at an Inn. The hotel derk always wore a smile. So did the hotel barkeep—and other barkeeps. The welcome sign stared at him from the door mats in front of the gambling houses, the glad hand was extended him by the pool room touts, and doors in the redlight district ever flew open at anyone’s approach. But Christian folk held aloof. And the player let them. What has wrought the change? Listen. It was the growth of education, the spirit of service and billiards. Bigger, broader men crowded the narrower and bigoted ones out of the Y. M. C. A. and got some billiard tables in. It worked well. Then they stole some more of the saloon’s stuff—the bowling alley—and that worked. Then they admitted popular song records for their victrolas and phonographs. AND THEN GENERAL PERSHING CALLED FOR PROFESSIONAL ACTORS AND V.AUDEVILLE ARTISTS .AND THE THING WAS DONE. UNDERSTANDING TRIUMPHED AT LAST. The Y. M. C. A. people saw. They did not demur, consider or even paose. They jumped at the suggestion and grabbed it. The players were not taken in as an experiment nor on sufferance or probation. They were called to service—to help—to labor. They, too, are broad and tolerant. They, too, are imbued with the spirit of service. They will prove not a liability, but the biggest kind of an asset. If anyone doubts it I^him just watch the drive November 11-18. $170,000,000 is asked^or ($80,000,000 more than that is actually needed'), but all that showfolk are asked to raise of it is $7,000,000, of which $2,000,000 is expected in New York City alone. Watch their quota go over the top. All that is said in the foregoing goes also for the Nationa’ Catholic War Council, the Jewish Welfare Service and the Young Women's Christian Association. These will participate in the lun^ raised, as will also the War Camp Community Service, the American Library Association and the Salvation Army. T --- NOVEMBCR •, WIS

MUSIC publishers! SHAPIRO, BERNSTEIN & CO., LOUIS BERNSTEIN, President I TO ARTISTS laying off at the present time, owing to unavoidable conditions, we would suggest Immediately getting in touch with us for three of our wonderful new numbers not yet in print. THE FIRST is a iittle light appealing ballad, unlike any off the type off ballads we have ever published before. The song has no refer¬ ence whatsoever to the war conditions. THE SECOND is a wonderful light novelty comedy number. It Is not a war song, but refers to a soldier who received a ten-day pass to go on a honeymoon, and is fuli of life, snap and ginger. THE THIRD is a song tftat we purchased from a publishing house In New Orleans that has not yet been done around the country, but which every publisher has been trying to buy for the past year. It is a song somewhat on the style of "Beautiful Doll" or "Pretty baby" song, and without r doubt will be a wonderful success either as a single or double. This song also makes no reference whatsoever to the war. IN ADDITION to these we have some other wonderful novelties and ballads. We would advise artists all over the country to get busy and learn these songs to be ready with new material when the theatres throughout the country start to open again, which we have reason to hope will be very shortly. _ SHAPIRO, BERNSTEIN & CO., 224 West 47tli Street, New York City.
