Nine. Kenie Lipzin, the noted Yiddish
tragedienne, who is now making a tour of
this country, was born in Zhitontir, Rus.
STA, and at an early age evinced a re-
dramatic talent. She became a
member OF a travelling company appearing
in Odessa, and first played in dramas
written by Goldfaden and others of the
earlier Yiddish playwrights. With this COM
pany she acted in Roumania and Gallcia,
creating everywhere a deep and lasting
impression as an actress OF real genius
Fate brought her to London, where she
made her first appearance as a star in q
company OF Yiddish players, many OF whom
rave become noted. Hearing of her success
in England, al enterprising manager of
New York sought her out in London and
brought her into this country, where she
has ever since acted. Nine. Lipzin produced
a drama written by Jacob Gordin, the re-
nowned Yiddish playwright, and that man
Of genius soon saw that Nine. Lipzln's tai
ent was of such a superior kind that she
required plays written especially for her,
She created the title part in his "Mirele
Efros,' a reversed king Lear" drama
with a happy ending. "Mirele Efros" is
still the most successful play Nine. Lipzin
gives. Her next play was Die Schechita,
CThe Siaughter), in which she gives a re-
markable study Of a neurotic girl. Critics

Charles wyndham and most of the other

to get hold Of new playwriters, lave their

DR.. w. l. Courtney, who is editor of the
Fortnightly Review and dramatic critic OF
the Telegraph; Philip Carr, and II, A.

idence OF intellectual growth in a com
munity. 1t means that the other theaters
can no longer satisfy the demand. and as
this demand springs purely from the in

Music and Musical Notes

Determinations are not deeds. Let us all
do" things.
There would doubtless be an eager rush
II The Bee would announce that a trip to
Europe would be given to each student
of music who would really like TO go, and
that beautiful things would be seen and
beautiful places visited during the trip.
Yes. there would be a rush.
And The Bee through its music depart
ment draws your attention to the endless
continent of music, where there are beau
ties undreamed OF, and where there are
delights beyond description. To the realm
of music, you are invited. Enter 1t, and be
pleased. Travel through It and be charmed.
Explore 1t, and be delighted.
And remember, that music does not mean
the plano. Music does not mean the
organ. Nor the violin, nor any or all in
struments. Music does not mean oratorio,
or opera, or concert. Music does not mean
singing. or voice culture, or tone-produc-
ton. Music does not mean composition, or
Instrumentation or orchestration. Music
does not mean history, or biography or
analysis. Music is not the orchestra, or
the choir. or the chorus. Music is music
Study music thenl BE musicians first,
and singers or players afterwards. For
musicians there will always be a demand
Let us be serious in our work. 1t is not
the kind of work to take with a Jest, or a
laugh. People take a trip abroad seriously
enough. OF you don't believe 1t, watch
them.) And when one applies oneself to
the reality OF music he never fails tc
receive a great reward.
The following beautiful sentiment came
with the Christmas messages from kline
and thoughtful friends last week. II is Sc
good that you must share It. II was sem
by a lady who was one of the Ieadine
singers of Omaha when the writer came tC
this town, and who has been given heI
share OF trials and tasks:
o, do not pray for easy lives! Pray L
Do not pray for tasks equal to YOU

Then the doing OF your work shall be n,

Every day you shall wonder at your

chance Of being accepted at once by some
one of the London managers endorsing the
work Of the society.
The society proposes also to produce
plays occasionally with the aid OF the best
actors obtainable from the London theaters,
giving one evening and one matinee per
Torrance Of each, and getting all the
nabobs OF the London social and dramatic
world to come and see It, with the idea OF
obtaining for the author a contract for
its production for a run by some one OF
the West End managers later on.
The society has chosen for its first pro-
duction the work Of an American writer,
Curtis Brown, who happens to be the chief
OF your own London staff. His play Is
a four-act comedy entitled Management"
Il is now in active rehearsal at the Kings
way theater and is to be produced there
on December 20 and q, with Madge Tither-
adge, II. A. ~Sainstbury, Elaine Innescourt
and Kate Phillips in the principal parts.
The author describes the play as "a light
minded affair, of which the object is good
natured amusement, with. perhaps, some
traces Of an underlying idea" This is to
be the general line of the new society, as
its managers say they do not take much
stock in problem plays Of the sordid and
more or less nasty sort.
