the London public. In Tho two most
rscont eases the themes were purify
American. although "shors Aorea' had
been Angllcised ~ much a. N could h..
~ scgnos and action having been tram
ferTed 90 on Eaglish shire,
II should bs q consolation 10 American
dramaslsts. however, that their work
nearly always wins critical approval In
London. Tho critics are quick 10 feooa-
niEe eacellsncOs and acknowledge them
but The public remains indifferent,
IN 4 measure the same situation az
lsts here. OF late the New York suo-
ceas Of English plays has been much
greater with the critics than With the
audiences. Few recent works by PfSEAo
or JoNEs have enjoyed any great popular
vogue In this country, and the humor In
the recent Barrie pieces Ia a little dihicuit
for general audiences 10 follow. The
habit Of th~easregolng Ia much moro
general here than II In In England. The
public intelligence Ia much quicker and
the knowledge Of O plays merits awakens
the desire 20 zoe II. For that reason the
London made plays usually fare bcttor
here than ours do abroad. 30 In London
audiences are best pleased with plays
dealing with life ard conditions which
they understand and with which they
sympathize. Our dramatists may send
10 London shilful work that delights the
practised observer, but audiences seek
ing plays that appeal TO their emotions
and thrill them with suspense will not
warm with admiration at the presenta-
ton Of O social environment which they
do not understand, however skilfully't the
playwright may do his work.
The so-called american invasion Of
the London stage by American actors
and ~playwrights has been a very peace
full affair. Our eminent actors have
been praised there, but that 10 nothing
new. Noted American players Of tho
past were more enthusiastically ac-
claimed than any OF their Successors.
Probably the earlier arrivals in London
had tho advantage OF earning some
thing besides fame On their visits. Re-
cent actors who have tried London
appearances for the sake Of wider re-
nown have usually had TO be content
with that.
Perhaps the fact that there Is critical
praise for our playwrights and for our
actors In London will have to remain their
sole foreign reward for q while. There
has been no limit to the expression Of
our admiration for the works Of the
foremost English d%ramatists, whatever
the size Of the audience may have been.
At present that critical appreciation
may be as much as any manager may
hope TO achieve for his dramatist or his
players. 1t is at least the first step
toward making the public here and In
England enjoy the plays that come from
one country to another.

A feature of the meeting was the
speech of the president, Harry McCor,
mick, in which he protested against the
s. raise in price. Mr.. Mccormick said :
Il attended the meeting of the Ore.
