lions. If the art Of the actor Is to leave, as
far as in him lies, his personality in his
dressing room, under such conditions when
he steps upon the stage he must above all
have an atmosphere of perfect silence which
lends to him and to the audience that power
Of abstraction which may enable them to enter
positively into the realm of the IDEAL That
alone is the prince Of all art. Any other means
simply its debasement. Under such conditions
the actor gives the true color and suggestion
Of the character he is to essay. But sup
posing from his first entrance to almost the
middle of the act in the auditorium he hears
nothing but the dropping of seats, the swish
ing Of silken gowns in the orchestra and the
dull thud Of hobnailed boots In the uncar-
peted gallery, what Is the actor to do? Shout
above it all and descend to the dull mechanics
of his art, or simply say what's the use of
trying? I assure the late conner to the theater
is bigger booge-boo than the high hat What
right has a party who dined late to disturb
1900 people by strutting down the orchestra
just as probably the plot of the play is being
given? Have you yourself ever caught what
the actor said, or have you ever done so, when

slst his claims to a seat.
