Players Club. Soon to Offer Annual Show, Can Look Back on Happy Past Organization Formed in 1905 with Less Than ‘Score of’ Members’ Now Has More Than 200. BY BEATRICE BI RGAN, Tlm*< Woman's Page Editor I ''HERE S still something appealing about “back when” observations. A Even if we are emerging into a season of breath-taking activity—before we wilt with its ruin—we'd like to look back on those less hurried days. The Players Club with its two one-act plays next Tuesday night at the Civic theater, has a pleasant past to dig up. While more than 200 members dress up. go to the theater, dine and dance at the Woodstock
Club now, there weren't many more than twelve in 1905, who gathered at homes for original performances. A group of dramatic-minded people met for the first time at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Rabb. Louis Bacon, New York, was one of the charter members. He and his daughter. Miss Honoria Bacon, will arrive this week to be holiday guests of Mr. and Mrs. Horace Comstock and Miss Betsy Byram. Mrs. Frederic Krull, Mr. and Mrs. Lee Burns. Mrs. Frank B. Fowler, Francis Bacon, Dr. and Mrs. Charles McNaull, Romney L. Willson, George Calvert and Misses Louise and Violet Barbour, now of New York, debated details of the club's formation. When Paul Henderson came home from school in the east, he joined the club. His interest in its progress was so keen that he converted the ballroom of his father's home at 1634 North Meridian street, into a a theater. A stage was constructed, and for several years all the plays were presented there. Mr. Hender-
Miss Burgan
son lives in Boston now, but his father, Oscar Henderson, and his brother Ralph Henderson, still live in the home. As the club grew, performances were held at the old Propylaeum Club on North street and later at the Odeon. At least one play a year
was written by club members. Since many of the members were literary, original plays became an important feature. Several linguistically inclined members translated foreign plays. Presented Operetta Two years ago Mrs. Kurt Pantzer and Dr. John Ray Newcomb did their share in maintaining the club's old tradition. Mrs. Pantzer translated the French version of “At the Sign of the Dead Rat,” and Dr. Newcomb put it into play form. Back in the earlier days the club even attempted an operetta, “Robin Hood,” at the Henderson home. It was accepted so favorably by the audience that the Dramatic Club later presented a more elaborate version of it. The whole club did its bit in planning the scenery and properties. Herbert Foltz, the architect, became so efficient in designing the sets and wiring for lighting effects, that the club locked to him for “the last word” in stage set-ups. Mrs. Myla Closser Baker, sister of the late Louise Closser Hale, actress. was one of the prominent members of the club. She is now in New York, engaged in literarywork. Comedy to Be Offered Dr. Newcomb, Mrs. Pantzer and Mrs. W. Rowland Allen form the present production committee, and they select and direct the one-act plays. Mrs. Pantzer is rehearsing a small cast which will present “Mahcolah." Under her direction Jcseph McDermott, Mrs. G. B. Jackson and Maynard Halverson are preparing to entertain the audi ‘-see with a modern comedy. King Arthur's court will be the scene of “The Idlings of the King,” which Mrs. Allen is directing. Its cast includes Erie Remington. Herman W. Kothe, Mrs. Horace R. McClure. Caleb N. Lodge. Fredei'ic Norris, Albert Deluse and Harlan Hadley. Mr. and Mrs. Norris are in charge of the production, and are being assirtrd by Dr. and Mrs. Jackson. Mr. and Mrs. Jackson, Mr. and Mrs John K. Ruckelshaus, Miss Melissa Wadley and Wilson Mothershead. Jack Harding is president; Mrs. Pantzer, vice-president; Mrs. George A. Kuhan, secretary, and Stuart Dean, treasurer.

Manners and Morals BY JANE JORDAN
Everybody is invited to chaU—" opinions with Which they do not arcs. Don’t sit on your irritation when you’re irked! Write! Dear Jane Jordan The first letter and your answer in Friday’s Times interested me, for I have just obtained divorces for two women where the real facts closely parelPl those in the published letter. I am not a divorce “specialist,” but I have learned that the real cause (not the one assigned in the complaint), for the
overwhelming majority of divorces, is sexual in c o mpatibility. The causes for such incompatibility are as varied as are the cause's for any other type of human behavior. Your answer to today’s letter ended with the suggestion that an authority could help make

a more natural or satisfactory adjustment.’ Your smugness and reliance upon “authorities” irk me! It seems to me that persons do solve their own problems, probably in not just the identical fashion that some “authority” would like, but nevertheless by a solution which for them is probably the only possible solution—and hence the “best.” But perhaps I should not have been irked, for might not writing a column and giving advice be your solution to your problem? I shan’t bore you any more. In fact you’ve got a good column. I sincerely hope you make it the success you desire for it. “X” Answer—Perhaps I would have dene better to use the word expert instead of authority. I see no reason why people w’ho are psychologically sick should not receive treat-

: n well as those who are I'l'r "l'y sick. ; c: were in need of a surgical !c: _ . n you wouldn’t be irked by suggestion that you consult a | surgeon, ncr would you insist that ! yen knew more about your insides i than he did. Parsons who are maladjusted ! emotionally are just as much in the | dark about their trouble as persons I who are in physical pain. Since the j unconscious portion of the mind exl ceeds the conscious, the psychologist, I like the surgeon, is handicapped by the necessity of doing his work in an unseen laboratory. Long ’ training supplemented by experience make him more able to spot the trouble and deal with it successfully than the helpless patient. I can not quarrel with your idea that, sexual incompatibility causes a large percentage of the divorces. I agree that the causes for such incompatibility are extremely varied and that there is no royal road out. The “authority” who attempts to force his own “solution” on an unprepared mind is a bungler. Knowledge divorced from the art of imparting it is capable of as much harm as good. No expert ever gives direct advice. His part is to add to the evidence at the patient’s disposal. If during the treatment, the individual experiences a change in standards and outlook which makes it possible for him to solve his problem in a manner previously impossible to him, it hardly canj>e said that the solution was thrust on him. It is as if he had had certain psychic blinders removed. It is possible that persons who give advice for a living are attempting to socialize a messianic complex. The “fixit” urge is capable of | great mischief when the fixer wants everything run according to his personal idicsyncracies. The value of advice is dependent upon the clarity of the advisor's insight and his ability to free his opinions from his own unresolved conflicts. In every case the questioner should be left to make his own decision. nan Dear Jane Jordan I am a young man 26 with an outlandish desire to get married to some nice girl who would appreciate a home-loving boy. The girl I have in mind is everything a fellow could expect except for the fact that she has an incurable desire to dance, and dancing to her means a bottle of spirits. On three occasions she has imbibed too freely and made rather a bad impression on my friends. Do you believe that if she cared for me that she would give up the drinking part of her nature? I wouldn’t want her to take a pledge because the first spat we’d have she probably would get pickled. I rather she would quit for her own goed, of her own free will, than to sign all the pledges in the world. J. K. Answer—lt seems to me that you two would be starting out with the very situation which breaks up so many marriages later on. I would not advise any man to marry a girl whom he wishes to change. It argues that he has not adjusted to the girl as she is, but as he hopes she will become. When the success of a marriage depends on a personality change on the part of one of the partners, it adds one more hazard to an already difficult task. I haven't the slightest idea whether or not the young lady will find a substitute in marriage for “the drinking side of her nature.” It would be mere surprising if she changed than if she did not.

White Coats and Capes for Sports and Evening Wear Offered at Ayres Materials Include Chinchilla and Lapin and Model Was Copied from Garb of Flying Lindberghs. BY HELEN LINDSAY AREAL “white Christmas” is forecast for the girl who has anew coat listed among her gift requests. Wraps for evening and sports wear are shown in white this year, materials ranging from warm and wooly chinchilla to snowy lapin. One of the newest of these is the coat originated by Ciarapotter, a young American designer. It is intended for sports wear in southern resorts. This is a white chinchilla deck coat, the idea for which oirgin-
ally was borrowed from protection coats worn by Anne and Charles A. Lindbergh when they landed in Sweden. The coat is shown at L. S. Ayres and is to be worn over bathing suits or shorts. It is a pull-over model, slit at the sides, and made with a huge collar and patch pockets. Another new coat has been designed from those worn by policemen, and is shown in white and blue unlined flannel, to be worn in smart manner over an evening dress. It is made with a yoke across the back, with a deep pleat from the yoke, and is very full. The lapels are small and tailored, and brass buttons are used to fasten it in double breasted style at the front. The college girls home for Christmas holidays will be excited over the lapin coats at Ayres. One is a swagger coat in two-thirds length, made with an ascot tie. Another is a two-thirds length cape of white lapin, which shows square military shoulders, and a tiny
rolled collar, which ties under the chin with a white satin bow. The most youthful of the new white lapin wraps shown at Ayres is an extremely short cape, made of matched skins, to appear as ermine. It has a small rolled collar, and is to be worn with a matching muff. oaa a a e New Shop Offers Gift Ideas ANEW accessory shop, opened yesterday on Ayres’ third floor, will provide a variety of gift suggestions. Interesting among the new jewelry shown there are reproductions of that worn in the musical comedy “Roberta," which opened in New York recently. The jew’elry is shown with photographs of the stars in the play. Rhinestone and carved jade have been combined in the jewelry worn by Lyda Roberti, as "Madame Nunez,” the star customer of the play, and' that worn by Nayan Pearce. Miss Roberti's jewelry includes ear rings, bracelets and brooches. Miss Pearce is shown wearing four huge matching brooches. Two are used as belt ornaments, while two are worn as shoulder clips on the straps of an elaborate evening gown. “Winged Mercury” ear rings, in rhinestone and carved jade, with matching necklace and bracelets, also are shown as a part of her jewelry. st ss tt a st a Interesting Muffs Shown TAMARA GIVA, who takes the part of “Stephanie,” wore jewelry of. rhinestones and simulated rubies. The reproductions shown in the accessory shop include a necklace with a long pendant, bracelets, a tiara, and brooches. In addition to this new jewelry, the shop shows two new’ black velvet muffs, One is a model made exclusively for Ayres and for BergdorfGoodman, New York. It is a large, flat muff, with two flounces. Under one of these flounces is a zipper purse opening, in which a coin purse is fastened by a small chain. The other muff is of pleated black velvet, and was designed by Koret.
