I when "Pinafore" was first pro-
,uced at the Opera Comique in Lon
don May 25. 1875. Il Is a related that

And an audience that enjoys the
bum boat woman will solso care for
Dick Deadeye, that mournful. ugly
ia!lor man who sees good In nothing.
Remember the dialogue of the open

stage cannot be as large as In a big
thCater. The audience. ono might

and turns Of Gilbert and sullivan
humor, and It was sitting hot. Never
theiess "Pinaforc" rode sercucly over
al handicaps. and as the voyage pro-
gressed the audience grew more ap-
preciativc and more liberal with APP
plause. Tho actors were true to their
calling and there was vervc and
dash in their work that overcame IA
tigue, heat and physical WEAKNESS
that must have amounted almost TO
agony since March they had heen
doing the same thing night after
night. strange town day. yet they
were as tirelcs5 and as sincere in their
work as tho the occasion had been a
