Il viii confess at once that I am

acting today is bad, it is quality
that we inherited direct from our
stage ancestors. You can judge the
stuff OF which a definite periods ac-
tors are made by the quality Of the
plays written for them. These early
actors we hear so much about-For-
rest, Mccullough, and all Of that
schOOl-were bOmbastic and unnat-
ural, and the plays of their period
were in perfect keeping. Edwin
Booth was the first TO institute a
change. But in nearly all the plays
Of the Victorian era there is the
same tendency to rant and yerbosity.
The dramatist prepared word-pic-
lures merely 70 AFFORD an opportunity

On our way thither Mr.. Greet

The subject OF stage settings.
Il do not advocate the absolute
elimination of scenery in dramatic
productions, he said. In fact
would be glad TO settle on some com
promise between its entire absence
from the stage and the form it takes
IN modern productions. But what do
we see in the plays Of today? A gar
ish effect that jars ones sensibilities.
The green of a forest scene is the
light shade of perennial spring. May
never develops into summer. Now.
Tor instance. the color of that wo-
mans hat, ne added pointing out
with his stick the crowning glory
in the costume worn by a feminine
member of The Times STAFF who
CHANGED to pass us, is just as near
the green of nature as the stage
artist ever comes. That" pointing

During lunch our conversation

toned the hilarity of the audience
during some serious moments of the
play.
You mean at the conclusion of
the murder scene in Macduff's cas-
Jle?" he prompted. They laughed
because the boy came out TOO quickly
