ADOPTS AUTHORS IDEA
FOR TANNING OF SHREW'

E.. Fl. Sothern says, referring to the
broadly f~arcical treatment which Miss
MarloWe and himself are giving to
''The Tanning Of the Shrew:'
Eyes, we are presenting the play IN
the purely farcical spirit in which 1t
was done in Shakespeare time, and, I'M
d%oubtedly,E with the authors sanction:
The innovation has, naturally aroused
some discussion but it has made q ire
mendous hit with the public. 70 do
old things in a new way, and especially
when YOU have been taught by tradi-
tions' Of some years standing that the
familiar way was the right one, is
bound to cause argument. It is a
commonplace that humanity is fond Of
a sgroovey' existence as being the line
