At The Theatre
LADY AUDLEY'S SECRET
Regardless of the rain t fair-cized
house greeted the presentation of '.Mad
Love" last evening. The play wa in the
hands of good actors. Craig Meyers,
carrying the leading role was good. Miss
Marietta Smart as Lady Audley won out
with the audience and J. P. Jones as the
story's villian was especially .
every line and movement increased the
hatred of the crowd, the sure happy sgn
that the vidian is doing his part weil. j
Being clean and refined thruout there I
was no critizism to find regarding the I
morals of the play. However, everybody j
has redd Lady Aadley's Secret and is '
acquainted with the innumeraole love ;
scenes that characterizes the story. But)
for the occasional appearance of "John- j
son" the comedian, there would not have
been any divertion from the 'mushyne'.s"
of the story. But being as it is. in the
hands of good people, tie faj.is of the
plot were for the most part overlooked.
PARSIFAL. OCTOBER 25
The immortal Richard Wag. er was
great student and reader. It was only hi
constant research and study that he
enabled to provide himself with the ma
terial with wnich he builded h i magni
ficent productions, daamatic ars oper?tic.
It is said it was while searching for ma
terial for his imper shab'e Tainhauser
that he came across Wolfrom von Esch
bach's poems cf "Parisifal" and "Titurei."
Upon making this discovery he rap'urcus
ly reported, "an entirely new world of
dramatic ard poetic matter suddenly
opened before me." Wagner was the
first to name his forthccmrf production
"a rel'gi'.ut drarra ." To use his own
words again, ' As I K.v nude 'Tnstran
and Yolde" a s ng terrestrial love. SO
will 1 make 'P.rf&f a drama of divine
love." How we:, re -iater succeeded in
his dec!iorthe wor d now knows. No

world moves." says Mr. Henry, "although
he man who first said It got killed for his
crime." Public taste is ficKle and amuse
ment managers must change to satisfy
it. Modern amu ement management is
plainly a survival of the fittest. This is
sound talk and they do say Mr. Hi Henry
