face beaming with anticipation. she steals
upon him-she is back of him-and her
arms envelop him, tighten and close about
him. Book falls to the floor. The lover
gives himself up to bliss. And The Kiss
goes on.
Several bars OF melody-of soft,
languishing. expiring melody-pulse from
the orchestra. The Kiss doesn't stop
From the street comes a faint rumble OF
cabs and the toot of automobile horns
Inside, excepting the music, breathless
silence People lean forward, gasping-
The Kiss continues. Slips of girls look
at one another woDderingly. Older misses
regard their escorts with undisguised re-
proof, and stin older matrons seem in
clined to sniff. Still the music creeps
through the darkene1 auditorium. There
are visible signs of nervousness. The
kiss is like that which Tennyson de-
scribes:

With lone long kiss my whole soul through
My lips as sunlight drinketh dew
"The kiss looks natural-of course;
to be successful, even a stage kiss must be
natural" declared Dalmores. "The recep-
ton of the kiss by the audience is most
satisfactory. They sit In perfect silence.
Otherwise it would appear ludicrous. The
kiss comes, and, as it is prolonged, the su-
dience feels the same sensations felt By
the characters portrayed on the stage"
A long hssl Miss Garden thinks it
isn't so very long. Its as long as we can
make it, however" she said, land we kiss
as long as we can and keep Our cues with
the music. But if the New York audience
thinks this is a long kiss-weli, maybe next
year I'll show them the Aphrodite kiss. /"
And she laughed There was a threat in
words. IT'S whispered that the ~Aphrodite
is tremendously longer
Is this stage kiss but reflection of the SEN

when it came down TO a finish
The run through the stretch called
