VALDEVILLC ARTISTS FtNE METROPOLITAN OPERA HOUSE APRIL 21st s THE PLEDGE OF THE N. V. A. S a mother who guards her own from harm, We shall take our kin by the hand, And their steps we will guide with steady arm To the lovely Saranac Land. We shall smile when they smile, their joys will share, As our path runs freely along; When their hearts overflow with music rare Then our heart shall beat to their song. But if shadows should fall and grief arise You will find us there by the side Of our children adrift ’neath threatening skies — And we’ll stem the turbulent tide. For they’re blood of our blood and bone of bone; Not a precious life shall be lost When a mother’s most tender love alone Is the sacrifice for the cost. So our work must go on from year to year. And the strength of motherhood grow; And the faith we shall keep, oh, have no fear- For He knows they’re needing us so! — Roland Burke Hennessy. i Thirteenth Annual "^Benefit HE gala performance tonight brings to a conclusion the coast-to-coast cele- bration of the Actors’ National Jubilee which, in connection with the National Vaudeville Artists’ Organization, has been observed throughout the United States and Canada, in every theatre large and small, during the past week. The entire amusement industry and all of its enthusiastic patrons have united and participated in this one annual jubilee for the cause of philanthropy within the theatrical profession. This occasion marks the logical and complete coalition through the Vaudeville Managers’ Protective Association of all branches of the theatre with the National Vaudeville Artists’ annual drive in behalf of the less fortunate members of the theatrical profession. The eminent and representative general committee, this year consisted of 'William Fox, Nicholas Schenck, Sam Katz, Hiram S. Brown, Harry M. Warner, Harold B. Franklin, Edward Schiller, Milton Feld, L. E. Thompson, Spyros P. Skouras, Charles Levine, Charles Moskowitz, Joseph Plunkett, S. H. Fabian and Alex Pantages. This concerted action by all the motion picture presentation houses and vaudeville theatres account for the great results obtained. The outcome surpassed the efforts of each of the twelve years past at this period of the amusement season, when the people of the stage have always made a worthy effort to serve their own needy brethren in the same manner in which they are accustomed to serve all other deserving causes year in and year out with no hope or desire for selfish reward. On the distinguished list of artists who co-operated in theatres throughout the land or are appearing here tonight, there is not one who has not been seen and heard in hundreds of benefit performances in aid of patriotic, philanthropic, religious, educational or civic movements wholly outside of the world of the theatre. Countless thousands of worthy causes have benefited by their voluntary services. But once a year they unite in a campaign in behalf of their own people of the stage and screen, for the aged, the ailing, the incapaci- tated, the impoverished and the otherwise dependent members of their own profession. The distinction and size of tonight’s audience is another evidence of the fact that the intelligent and sympathetic amusement-loving public of New York— as of the entire nation — are in complete accord with this purposeful occasion; that they know and approve of its motive and its splendidly generous fulfilment. Throughout the past week of the Actors’ National Jubilee, in every city of the major and minor circuits, stars of the legitimate, the films, the opera, musical comedy, the revue, the radio, the circus, the sport and the concert fields — wherever they chanced to be — volunteered to appear in this same cause for which we are here tonight. It is the one annual drive for funds in aid of the needy members of the theatrical profession. No such splendid demonstration as this of tonight would be possible without a public understanding and appreciation of the underlying purpose of so memorable an entertain- ment. This audience is largely representative of the best element of the 100,000,000 American people who love and support their theatres. They know, too, that the method and manner of philanthropic service established and perfected by the National Vaudeville Artists has been the admiration and the example of experts in every important fraternal, beneficiary or co-operative charitable organization in this countrv. And it is because of this well-founded understanding of the generous scope and unselfish purpose of this annual jubilee week, that the artists of every branch of the amusement world gladly volunteer, and that the gracious patrons of every form of modern amusement always respond so generously.

J National Theatre Supply Company UST a few words to help you remember some of the bright spots of the year’s work. For instance, the kind of stage rigging that gave you swift, silent scene changes; stage lighting equipment that brought you the effects you wanted; spot lights that worked the way you needed them to work. . . . When you are playing that kind of a house, it’s a pretty safe bet that National Service had a hand in its equipping — and that sort of stage equipment is only indicative of the superiority of National products that make up every other phase of modern theatre appointments.

A. the new FRANKLINS have the ^Airplane Feel” What is the "Airplane Feel?" It is the closest description we can find for the sensation of driving the new Franklins. It is caused hy a combination of features engineered into the Franklin and not to be found on other cars. Here they are (fiv« of them): — 1 . Air-Cooled Motor — Like the record-break- ing airplanes you have been reading about, the Franklin is powered with a spirited air-eooled motor. ^ itb air-eooling there is nothing to boil over, nothing to freeze, nothing to leak. That tells the storv and it means fewer stoj>s and better perfonnanee. 2. Flexible Frame — When you get away from using a radiator, you can use a flexible frame — springy — like a raj)ier blade — takes up shocks. 3. Full-Elliptic Springs — Just about like doubling the springs on other cars — giving the Franklin that 'Teather-floating'’ riding (piality that other manufacturers don't even dare talk about. 4. Light Unsprung If eight — If you make the ])arts of a car which are under the springs very light compared to the rest, vou don't feel road shocks. Franklin has been doing this for 27 years. 5. Scientific Distribution of W eight — Franklin weights are planned to go where thev do the most good. That's why Franklins seem to ride like airplanes, while they literally "hug'' the road. W e can't tell you what the "airplane feel’’ feels like, unless you have flown. Drive one of the new Franklins and find out for yourself. Franklin Automobile Co.. Syraci se. N.Y.

Proud to be President of the National Vaudeville Artists’ Association, I am yet more proud of the manner in which all of my fellow citizens, in every walk of life, recognize and encourage the long struggle which we have made to earn and command the respect of the public in our private as well as in our public lives. As a veteran of Vaudeville, as well as of other branches of the theatrical profession, I am deeply and permanently impressed by the attitude of so many other members of our calling towards the fraternal, foresighted and wise principles which have animated the National Vaudeville Artists towards members of every branch of the theatre, as well as towards its own people. During the past week there was a nation-wide celebration of the Actors’ National Jubilee. Tonight we witness, and participate in, its proper culmination in the greatest show city in the world. This audience is representative of every class and quality of the theatre-loving public of the United States. The program is illuminated with the names of artists of opera, drama, musical comedy, the films, the radio, the phonograph and Vaudeville. During my own long career on the Vaudeville stage, I have never known so general and so generous a co-operation between all the people of our profession. The owners and managers, the employees and attaches, the artists and executives of every kind and degree, are now as one in peace and fraternity, in mutual respect and co-operation, not only for the service of the public, but in the promotion of better conditions of the artists who serve that public. The response of the American public to these conditions is evident tonight as it has been throughout the past week of the Actcrs’ National Jubilee in every city and town of Canada and the United States where there is a theatre. I look upon this as another annual recognition of the ceaseless service which the people of the theatre are always giving to every worthy public cause of patriotism or charity. This occasion is another demonstration of approval for the tried system of wise and generous philanthropy for which the N. V. A. has won the praise and commendation of all the best authorities in humanitarian service. Year by year the various elements of our profession are becoming more closely related. In Vaudeville now, all the components of modern stage entertainment are associated. And our public is the entire American public. It is not surprising, perhaps, that the artists of every branch of the theatre are here joined with us in this one and only annual drive for the benefit of one another. rogram - THIRTEENTH ANNUAL BENEFIT PERFORMANCE And New York City’s Special Contribution to the Nation-Wide Campaign for the National Vaudeville Artists^ Fend METROPOLITAN OPERA HOUSE Senday Evening, April 1929 S.

Adirondack Lodge which has just been completed and is now ready for furnishing, will be the most modern and best equipped institution of its kind in the world. The scientific equipment will be the latest and most complete procurable. The X-Ray and biological laboratories will be open to all earnest research workers in the field. The sanitorium will be under the supervision of Dr. Edgar L. Mayer, internationally known authority on the cure and care of tuberculosis, and Dr. Mayer intends to establish a laboratory in the new building to carry out his theories of radio-therapy and other results of his extensive investigations. The new building has three floors and rooms for the patients; all connect with baths and have outside windows. On the first floor are the living rooms, a small theatre, dining room, library, kitchens, offices and laboratories. Each floor has a sun parlor of southern exposure and on the top floor is a helio-therapy parlor. On the roof is a glass enclosed gymnasium. The Adirondack Lodge wdl be a model of compactness and completeness, and it will provide the theatrical profession with a much needed center to carry on its humane plans for the care of unfortunate members. * 'IS National Vaudeville Artists, Chicago Branch 5 6 West Randolph St., Chicago, III.

With longer bodies — higher radiator and hood — graeeful lines — rich, harmonious colors — sweeping one-piece full crown fenders — the new Superior Whippet definitely establishes an ultra-modern style trend for Fours and light Sixes.

But when you consider that it was taken ra during the noon hour in the heart of an industrial plant, it does become a "different kind of audience.” Each noon hour twenty-five hundred or more employees of The National Cash Register Company gather in the Schoolhouse. There is regular entertainment consisting of vaudeville acts, music, and motion pictures. Many members of the N. V. A. have been our guests during these entertainments. Quite frequently they have very kindly helped to make these meetings more successful by appearing personally. To those who have visited us we extend a cordial invitation to come again at any time.
