THE DRAMA

are a trifle hop-worn. " Others, though-
we have had them In our store for some
time, are as good. aa new; indeed, are
-now-shown tor; ttie -nrst- time. r "
othera, are yet warm from the pen and
represent the top notch of play-making.

,Tou will find them all splendid; all wor

- So might, the Auctioneer :who rules
over the destinies of the playhouses cry
his wares, were there such a thins as
an auctioneer or even a destiny over
? our theatres. There were six or more
- openings the past week, and every o-ne
-of them represented a dramatist of na
' tlonal or International , repute.- Many
." of the playa were. It la true. In a .way
revivals, . but they . were . presented by
new actors and In most cases by the a,

the four . thousandth time by Mr. Ed
, ward Terry.- though for the nrst ttm by
him In America; There are people wh3
. will tell you that 8weet Xavrendar" Is
r .- Plnero'a greatest play. It belongs, "of
course,, to his eirller end '"pleasanter
'. work. No play was ever more aptly
' named. Bweet It la. sacchsrlnely,
syrupy sweet, and redolent with hot-
house sentimentality. It la too lata In
r the day to apeak about thia play, aave
;' -by way of comparison with the author'a
later work. "Sweet Lavender": "has been
probably. Plnero'a : greatest 'popular"
' - success.- To call It bis greatest artlstlo
: success would-be like calling '"The Two
Gentlemen- t of r Verona- Shakespeare's
" masterpiece," j

"' peal of this play consist. It has nothing
., to-do with "problems" of any sort. If
V has little to do with real characters, "for
"even Phenyl is In a way ."type." It
. belongs to a fairyland of , sentiment,

sea, where strange.' cruel things hap-

" -i . That cloying last act, with a set of co-
Incidences that makes probability., look
.- v O Ike a fraud, la a wonderful survival of
- 'the aorX of thing that used to exist and
w persist in the old family weekly. It
: alma straight at the heart-strings and
' there you have' in a -nutshell the reason
;' for Its popularity.'. Moreover.. Ukp' the
. 'aforesaid -family weekly of two decades
ago. it his nothing at all "objectionable"
" In it, aave possibly Lavcndar'a parent
age, - and -that If sugar-coateST It la
. " eweef lavender, and for. those who do
. . not like lavender or prefer It rather
' ::Z pungent ' than' sweet. It will be found
s . rather overpowering. For those who do
: care for '. the type of play . which ,1s
-v 'homely and simple- and lender. It "will
- always have a atrong .appeal and de
servedly. To compare It, however, with
such a product aa-"Iris" or "The Gay
-Lord Quex."-seve by way of showing
"l ' out .what- Plnero has worked to" his
-- present high position. Is unfortunate, to
vflsynd ,to the others. '"Sweet I v

does not try to make him so. On the

There are" many, defects which can be
picked in-th,ls play. In the first pUce
It has a tendency to be too preachy and
la clogged at -points by -dialogue and sen
tentlousnees where one could wish ac
tion. Yet with everything aald against
H thatJustly can be said It remains
a delightful comedy of rather reaching
--TherI
himself t solve la" the queetlon of the
Inviolability of the marriage vow. - HUr
thesis, was the. presumption that the
husband should remain as true as the
wife and that If .the man transgresses
the womail has a right to pay him back
In his own ' coin. , Beginning with this
prlnclplehe proceeded to show how the
absolute theory works ent when con
fronted . by facts ana condition, 'what
part sex and social convention play in
tne solution.
Mr. Jonea ehoae first his typical ceo
pia He. no. sooner did this, however.
than ha saw the ehance of contrast and
Immediately, the problem broadens from
special Tn stance to a general study of
marriage aa a whole. Contrasting with
James Harabln and Lady Susan there
are Sir Joseph JJarby and Ladr Darby.
These .constitute the ' so-called "happy"
marriage. Not happy., mind .you. De
cause of , being ..Ideally , true to- each
other, but because frhlle Sir Joseph has
been something -of a rake, TUs 'wife has
shut. her. eyes to the fctand accepted
it' as a matter of course. 'They are
absurdly fond of each, other, a fact no
doubt partly, due to the reason that Sir
Joseph, being a "sailor," Is away from
home most of the time. As Lady Darby
says, "I alwsys notice that 'yon are the
most affectionate the week Just before
you ae leavlnr or the week Just after
you have returned," or worda - to that
effect.. ' 1
-; . h "Meal" Karrlac. '.''; ''.""
But ' Mr.- Jonea did not leave the
problem at that He brought In still
another couple, two young people of se
rious .'IdeaJs." 4 who .marry, aa ---- they
would put It',-' In order through mutual
sympathy-to obtain mutual freedom and
mutual .benefit . These .are .the- vision,
arlea, the man who" would "etamp him
self upon the age" and "the woman who
has a mission." .The man la his egotism
thinks that the woman will produce "an
atmosphere" . conducive . to . his -greater
Jevelopmenf,' the, woman believes that
her freedom will thus be assured. Re-
sultr-tbe Thanrends vp with a black eye r
and the, woman la arrested for-public
speaking.
Finally to complete his picture Mr.
Jonea showed the. old bachelor who had
ever married because' of -an Ideal held
long In his heart, and the widows also
with' an Ideal i the two broad, ! yet sym
pathetic, not foolish in ..their Ideas of
marriage, eminently sane ind of the mind
that goes to make happiness. .
- It la worth while even at this late
day to . capltuiaU-again this: play, .for
Itf productloii atathe present time, givee
It new-importance and ahows that It
haa lost little of, Its primal value. - It
la a- splendid 'piece of work, admirably
conceived and admirably ' worked out.
It la full of keen 'Insight ' into human
nature and" human Institutions. -Its lines
brilliant as any. since the days of Oscsr
Wilde. .. Even., when ; presented by , the
f eeond-class stook- company;- It la found
Sir Charles' production is. 4is far as
may he judged after this lapse of time,
the 'finest the play- has -received -here.
The entire company is-excellent, and
as for Sir Charlea .hlmselt h Is acting
has that finality and finesse 'that go- to
give absolute resity' and reality. . As
Laxly Bussni Mils jMoore ls.seea In even
better; light than 'In the two previous
plays, which Is safhyf a great deau
-'.-xow -ITever J Can TeU."
"To"Worfc out the-playa previously pre
sented and -come to' those wiittWrsome
time ago but produced' for -the ; first
time here, we' have Mr. Arnold 4Jsiju4n
Bernard Shaw's "You Never. Can TelL"
Ur DhtTw la a vnnnv man, and is
daring. Last year he made, aomethlng
of a 'sensation in "Cahdida,'Swhtch he
followed up with "A Man of Destiny."
and . "How He Lied to Her Husband.
Finding that the public took kindly to
the writings of Mr. Bhaw, he comes out
this year with another comedy. It I
mains to be seen h'ow the ventiire Will
prove.' Fashionable audiences have been
attending--and evidently the appeal has
been to - the intellectual ' class,, It wss
noticeable that 'several of 'the audience
had bookaof JTrTTBhaWa play ; under
their arma. , 1. .'.-.-
"Just why any .one should think It nec
essary to have a copy of the play under
your arm In order to enjoy it la hard to
see, unless the Idea la that you can un
derstand Bhaw by tactical absorption, as
It .were. I daresay one can get as close
to him that way as any other way. '
Before considering -this play H might
be well to bear In mind Mr. Shaw's esti
mate of himself, r "I first caught the ear
of the British public," he writes In the
preface te hie "Three Playa for Puri
tans," "to the blaring of. brass bands.
and this la not at all aa a reluctant sac
rifice of my instinct of privacy to po
litical necessity, but because, like all
dramatists and mimes of genuine voca
tion, I am a natural-born mountebank."
If we take Mr. Shaw at hla own esti
mate. It will be Interesting to watch his
"tricks" as exhibited in this play of hla

caricature of accepted stare types. Mr.
Bhaw taksa a typical set of figures the
stare father and the- staae.jnother and
the stage children, the stage lawyer and
the stage waiter. , With keeness and al
most cunning be goes -beneath the sur
face of these characters, and not only
satirizes them." but suggests what. If the
truth were .told, they . would really be.
Of course, the salre. doee not, atop there,
but goes on from character to condition.
Mr. Bhaw has hla-fling at modern love.
and suggests In .this play what In his
latest "Man and . Superman'' he has de
clared brutally via, that woman does
more than halt of tbe courting, and that
If a woman means to marry a man he
had better, throw up hla handaand ac
cept the Inevitable. Filial Jove, -too, as
It ' is" portrayed on the stage he holds
up to ridlcnie. It is In a word, a satire
upon certain accepted types and emo
tions both onthe atage and In real life,
He himself aaya of this play: " Tou
Never Can Tell' was an attempt to com
til y with many raqueats for m play In
which the muoh paragraphed brilliancy
of 'Arms and the Man' should be tem
pered by -some consideration for the re
quirements of managers , In search of
fashionable eomedlea ' for West- - End
theatres." And he fnes on 'to say that
he had "no difficulty In complying," for
"Tar from taking an unsyropathetlo idea
of fun, for fashionable dresses,. ! was
mors than willing to ahow that the
drama .can" humanise.' these things as
easily, aa they can ' dehumanise the
drama." -
I believe that In that very last clause
you have the clue both to thla play and
to Mr. Shaw. - He la trying1,, to sound a
protest against the sentimentality and
conventions of the "stage, mirroring aa
they do often conventions and senti
mentality In real life. "' -'
It Is not necessary, however.' to find
hidden meaning In the present play. . It
Is in Itself a capital fare and so re
garded will probaMy prove the most
enjoyable.- And enjoyable It Is, down
right funny. . . ... : ; ,. . ; . ,

Boots aad rajamaa.
That-waa not , an easy story t telt
and I won't vouch for Its accuracy- In
every detail, though I saw the play but
be no doubt that Mr. Thomas. bag writ
ten one of the most delightful comedies
which he has given tier - Not only is Its
theme new but -every step in It is done
with freehneee 'and . cleverness. '.The
Idea of Introducing "an oateoDathatio
treatment upon the stsge Is original and
was followed by . the. audience with no
less Interest than amusement.' In the
second act not only do you see the fa
mous boots, dainty furry .little things.
but also lace concoctions of "nighties"
and pajamas. The ladles have the best
of It, for the aoft clinging affairs of
bows and lace were far more attractive
from the etandpolnt of beauty than tbe
Chinee effects exhibited by tha men.
It m not possible to tell the amount
of real fun Mr. Thomas haa put Into
this play. After the- first . act. which
dragged a bit because of the elaborate
explanation necessary, the audience wss
kept In continual roars of laughter. It
looks as If Mn -Thomas haa duplicated
his success of "The Other Girl" and
"The Earl of Pawturket."
