GIRLS AND PLAY-WRITING.

The thing nowadays that is taking
the greatest hold of young girls, who
turn to the stage as flowers to the sun,
is the mania for play-writing. Every
one who scribbles at all tries to write
play. If she can't write it she has
alleged IDEAS of how it ought to be
done OF grand plot, of a charac
ter that would just fit some of the
most prominent folk in stageland.
She talks about the matter in seas IN
and out, and earnestly searches for
collaboration who will put her ideas in
dramatic form. The germ OF play
writing is abroad in the land and few
escape 1t. Many are melted by the
current stories of vast fortune made
by the successful Playwright. Others
desire the fame or notoriety that
goes with dramatic success. In
every girls school and college the
mania for writing plays has burst
forth " It'll remarkable vigor.
