KEEP RECORD OF "ROTlcCs'
Stage People Childiike in Their Liking
for EXPRESSIONS of Opinion That =
Favor Them.

A childlike belief in the efficacy of
the good notice" as a means of
compelling the favor of the public
is one of the distinguishing marks
of the theatrical and musical pro-
fessions. Many singers and players
have reached ripe age without
learning that there is a vast differ
ence between delighting the multi
tude and acquiring scrap book rich
in the mendacious tributes of OBJ
scure trade journals.
"Good wine needs no bush," and
still less does the musician or actor
whose geniils has thrilled a great
audience need the encomium of the
printed page, for at best it is but d
faint echo of the spontaneous APP
plause that has gratified his soul and
stirred him to his finest efforts. TIC
the average actor there are but two
kinds of criticism-the "knock' and
the boost" The last named benz
fits him but little and merely serves
to feed his vanity, which is seldom
in need of any nutrimerH. A
KNOCK" however-even one that is
malicious and undeserved-is quite
apt to win for him the support of
those whose wrath is aroused by the
injustice of the attack.
Intelligent criticism-and there
are those who boast that they never
read it-can be of greater value to
the actor than to any other artist,
for whereas the painter can study
his own work and the novelist read
what he has written, the player cam
not see himself act. Nevertheless,
the most treasured contents of the
scrap book are the ''notices" that are
of the least real value.
