Other things : beside characterlnatlon
and aotlon are naturally necessary for
a really great ply. The essentially
big thing In almost every , field' of en

have the uplift' of a : sort of subtle
poetry, that quality - which is - like a
fine sense of tonal values In, painting.
But - characterisation 'Is ths sine qua
non of every play of - lasting worth,:.
"Modern drama, that Is. the present
day, drama of England and the conti
nent, shows a vivid .-carrying out "of
this. Tott see characterisation carried
almost te the tenth degree la the
work of a man like Maeterlinck or Ib
sen, where the whole notion jot the play
centers la psychologlo struggle of
personality against environment. Aad
hence you get the soul-tragedies, allied
te the early Greek work, - an Inquiry
Into the very springs of life and action.
The vesuit has been - called the "prob

the bogle man of the stage. Problem
plays per aa represent a high aad de
sirable forms but their perversion -has
been pernicious . and ', has 'recently

to ths Lyrlo last Monday. Ths locals
of this musical oomedy is Mexico, Its
three views disclosing a market square,

and the scenery and costuming nave
rarely been surpassed. - They are - ex

The hook and lyrics are by Clara Drls

centers About a government mine, called

been a swindle. Aa a result of this tne
many who have lost their money in It
have banded together under the leader

which had gone before. There la only
this glimpse, however, and the rest of
