All who have shared the rare pleasure
OF seeing Hamlet done by Forbes

until the end OF the season. But promise
is given that in the autumn of 1913 we
shall see him in a variety of dramas
which take the true measure of his
powers As a sane and satisfactory in
terpreter Of Shakespeare at the Bard's
best there is no one alive, either as
actor or stage director, who can hold a
candle to Forbes-Robertson. Wherefore
We are almost sorry that the present
means OF holding him in this country Is
necessary to the financial sustenanee of
the artistic individuality which is capable
Of far better things.

terious figure of the Passer-by in Mr..
Jerome's oddly entertaining bit OF SYM
boiism.
Such is one form OF the tribute which
art must pay to commercialism In a day

makes the best guessers the best pro-
dncers and exalts a charlatan or a rag

oftener than II enthrones q creator OF
rich dramatic values Of whom It is hard
TO speak except in the superlatiye.
