produced at the New Theater, New

all-star company. one of the critics
said in laudatory review of the

The greatest Of .all American
plays has been written by a rosy
checked youngster just out Of COL
lege; who was too badly frightened
last night to make speech in re-
sponse to the thunderous demands
from delighted audience for a few
words"
The phrase was happily descript-
i've. Mr.. Sheldon is "rosy-cheeked
youngster," and has all the reticence
and modesty that frequently accom-
panies great genius Mr.. Sheldon,
for all his youthful appearance, has
drunk deep at the fount of knowl-
edge of human nature and as re-
suit all his characters are as real as
their originals; for Mr.. Sheldon con-
fesses that his brain children are all
fashioned upon living models and
are not the product of inkpot and
pen. At the Iris next Friday, Jan
