The mission of the theater Is not one solely of nmuw.-incnt. From tho beginning of Its earliest Innpnctlon It has been n reflection nnd Interpreta tion of the llfo ot Its period, lly some persons or the present dny, an evening nl the theater Is regarded an a means to banish thought, Instead ot Innplrlng It.

Yet these plays arc, If truthful, an necessary In rc llectlng lire ns a whole an the ones re flecting the siirfaco or things. It must bo remembered that the Drama Lcnguo can Inly pick the best nmong tho plays given us. Hn like Hornard Shaw's epigram, "that the least ugly of tho sinters Is tho beauty of tho rnmlly."
