Listening Is an art that is not prop erly taught In the schools In which modern actors are trained, for wlUch voice culture lias the place of high hon or that it deserves in the curriculum of «»Very acaifeiny on Broadway.

Indeed, told me that she had been studying the art of expressing emotions by means of a se ries of contortions of visage, all more or less hideous to beneftd, but that she had not been taught anything about listening. In short, ttlthouyh she had learned how to make her various emo-" tlonal grtmaces. It had never occurred to her that unless she could show cause for these curious expressions of Joy or grief or rage or whatever they were called in her “Complete Handbook of Acting.” her audience would not under stand what she was driving at. But if «he had been taught to listen with a" natural Interest and attcsJioh, the emotions called forth by what she heard would be certain t<> betray them selves convincingly on her face. Like many-another, unfortunate,, tills delud ed young woman Had hegun to learn at the wrong end and had been taught the effect, not the cause of emotion.
