Mr.. Ames slanted a knowing look
along his cigarette and then was lost In

which nothing IS to prevent a rapid
transit 10 the happy ever after. But the
time is seldom too late for trouble.
Sir George OF tho books title. Is
Harry's father. Hearing OF his SOM
engagement, he comes straight to Can
nero, whittier the boy has pursued his
sweetheart. lie sees Kitty and her
lovely mother. lie Is conquered. All
SIN seems 10 DE We'll with Cup!d's pair.
Nevertheless, a little cloud is in sight.
There Is a mystery about K!tty's father.
"a not!ceab BILE evasion by Kitty's mother
when the baronet's inquiries press too
close 10 .he family. And II is under
stood we'll enough that Sir George IS
keen on tho point Of the clean slate
in projected alliances for his house:
that ne rs a believer in the often cruel
theory OF faint through hered!ty.
Suddenly the whole sad story T. made
known by a Jealous and wicked woman.
Behind the mystery OF k!tty's father
is a tale OF infatuat!on. weakness. a
momentary yielding TO temptation which
leads to prison bars, II Is when he hears
all this that Sir George raises his OBJ
t~ectIons and What has been a love story
threatens to become loves tragedy.
Are YOU sure the anxious mother
has asked kitty before the revelation.
Yes. mother. I'm quite sure the
girl has answered, There is no one
like him. | should have died ~ he
had not come"
And now here Is Sir George declaring
! how the sins OF the father are visited,
etc. and how no would sooner see
his boy in his grave han married 20
the daughter OF a thief. About this
time, one does not like this British
father very we'll.
Fortunately. Harry IS different. He
cares for Kitty, not for a bygone
theory. Fortunately, too. the spiteful
lady who told tales has overreached
herself. She has a past OF her own.
and when everything comes out, things
look different ever to Sir George.
Yes. II IL true. Congratulations are
in order for Harry, for Kitty, for the
lovely mother-for everybody pt the
sDiteful lady. ~

with u~ndisguised enthusiasm. They're
going on with their original intention
OF producing as good plays as can be
procured. though the number may not
be so large as It has been N the past.
Now We are not able 10 play out some
OF our more successful plays because OF
the policy that has been followed out

withdraw plays that were doing a ire
mendous business. Financial returns

But from the first l have been opposed
10 setting a formula that must be fol-
lowed. Under the system that may be
adopted In tho future there would be
the opportunity OF reviving old sue

an established repertory. At the same
time l don believe a stock company

Undertaking Has Been

Founders Are Ready to
Take the People at
Their Word.
Bockers Hare Announce
rnent to Make Which
viii Reveal That 1t Is
Not to Be Abandoned
as an Artistic Failure.


tectural mistake. the New
Theatre Is not TO be aban.
doned a an artistic failure. This
much | gathered from the guarded
managing director, MIR. Winthrop
Ames. who blew the rumors that
have recently been printed into so
much cigarette smoke.
The public has said Go or. as
serted Mr.. Anes. and the New Thea
ire will ~ on. II will not end with the
present season. The public has made
'hc founders 'eel that q wants such q
theatre. and they, accordingly. are
ready 20 take tho public Z It's word.
The one really satisfying thing about
has shown i's interest In and spprecis-
ton OF the undertaking
This was more than Mr.. Ames h1i
larrainod 90 say iu the beginning. lie
did not wish TO anticipate what the
founders viii say before long IN an
official announcement II was only fair.
ho 'e.t. that the gentlemen who had
built the house should be allowed to
have their say first. lie asked me 10
SAY whcn,' because We sat In that
part OF the house where these words
are spoken many times and Oft between
acts, but he relied upon me not 10 say
too much about plans now under con
sideratiDn.
Leaves Last Word to Founders.
II was as though Mr.. Amcs said 20
The founders, After you. gentlemen,"
out OF the tail OF his keen eye he saw
always the newspaper behind the aues-
ton. And he left the last word TO the
founders.
But. OF course" he admitted. This
house Is too large FOR the purpose for
which 81 was intended. This. however.
IL not the faul. ot the architects, az has
50 often been charged. The original
plan contemplated forty-eight boxes.
ard although his plan was changed
during the Course Of construction In a
way that reduced the boxes to half that
number. the STRICKLAND by this ! mean
tho Observation-Disclosures the same and
as II was impossible 10 roof-over the
boxes. tho general architectural plan
OF the house could not be altered.
AT the same time 81 must be re-
meInbered that 81 was the box-owners
whose money made Il possible 20 build
the house. ] make this explanation to
show hat the architects should not
be criticised for what they have done.
Aside from this, there are two classes
OF people We mustn't say anything
against-the public and tho critics. We
are here TO serve them 10 the best OF
our ability. And we reaAze there IL no
