Ne1o YorksTimes: "To attempt to de-
scribe the simplicity and beauty of Miss
Webster's play would be like attempting to
describe the first breath of Spring after an
exceedingly tiresome and hard Winter. Not
that one should draw an analogy between
tiresome and hard Winter. and some of the
plays. which. have been seen here this sea-
son--that is" moi, unless one should care to.
But Daddy Ions, Legs which came to New
York after; ilong and prosperous runiin
Chicago, is by far the most pleasing and
entertaining little play which has come out
of the West or from anywhere else in many
years. 1t is not remarkable that it should
have had long stay in Chicago! The re-
markable part is that it left there at ALL"

NeaO York Sun: Miss Chatterton fully
warranted her advance to Broadway star
dom by the excellence of her performance.
Daddy Long-Legs' was more than pleasing.
1t was welcomed by an approving audience
which didn't show its approval just because
it was first night audience, but because it
appreciated a meritorious production. There
were innumerable calls after each act"
Ne,O York Herald. "A comedy of real
charm, Daddy Long Legs had its New York
premiere at the Gaiety Theatre last night.
1t has no big message nor does it TEEN with
action, but through four acts it kept the
audience between laughter and tears. Miss
Chatterton was recalled again and again. In
the big cast was no weak spot. Daddy Long
Legs. is sure to find many friends here"

Ne'o York Sun: "The appearance of Elsie
Ferguson on the New York stage is always
an important incident In all that distin-
cuisines the actress of really artistic instinct
and the capacity to give it expression and
in the beauty that singles out one woman
among the others of the world, Miss Fer
guson is eminent on the American stage.
All of her performance was exquisite in its
artistic finish, which does not mean that it
sacrificed bit of naturalness. Good acting
such as Miss Ferguson is capable of is more
natural the more finished it is. Such art is
of that supreme quality that conceals art.
The audience applauded the young actress
enthusiastically. The evening was a. tri-
umph for her."
