Ethel Barrymore's Tuesday night re-
ceptl0n az The Hudson theater might
perhaps be best described as an ova-
ton which began upon her entry 10 the
scene and seldom lapsed until the
darkenlng OF the auditorium after the
performance. More than any other ae-
iress OF her years this charming daugh-
ter of distinguished parents is estab-
llshed IN the regard Of the public not
alone IN New York but throughout the
county and this regard was expressed
ON Tuesday evening through a series
Of demonstrations that were altogether
remarkable, Miss Barrymore, for this
OCCASION was the heroine Of am inter-
national story called Sunday" In
which she was pictured as the daugh-
ter Of an Engllshman who had died I'M

but she was restrained from accepting

back TO America, however, to the scene

was brought TO a pleasant and striking
conclusion. sunday is melodrama, 20
