The piece, however, proved too palpably a makeshift ie ) tion, are carry its first hearers with it. Irwin has rarely played with more. persistent fun, but try as she might, she could not disguise the fact that she was dealing with threadbare ma- terial. There is one real character in the play--th#t of the housekeeper, and Miss Irwin is responsible for the touch of true life that is there.

Miss Nine out of the ten, new plays of the month are in undisputed posses sion of New York theatres. This seems a pretty high average for a preliminary season.

It is reported that every time a German Zeppelin or airplgne drops bombs upon an English town and takes human life there is a rush for the recruiting. offices. The other day, after the latest -raid of this character, the recruiting advanced materially, and the recruits mani- fested a spirit traceable clearly to the resentment felt by the people against the air raiders. If this same spirit animates the munitions makers and causes them to speed up in their work, England could ask nothing better than that Germany send a Zeppelin or two once a week to serve as a stimulus to patriotism.
