JACINTO BENAVENTE

has to surrender before such an astonish-
ing feat and yet, compared to playwrights
of other lands, Spains are conspicuously
productive.
1t is mere sample, therefore, of the art
of Jacinto Benavente that John Garrett
Underhill now introduces in an admirable
translation to the English speaking world
Benaventc has produced eighty plays in
twenty years. Four are submitted by Mr..
Undcrhill--three comedies and one tragedy.
AS rendering of certain aspects of Spanish
life and taste The Widows Husband" Is
facile and lightly amusing, THE Evil Doors
of Good'-a social satire--suggests the
influence of Ibsen even so far away from
Christiania as Madrid. THE Bonds of In
terest' is "A kind of modern application
of the principles OF the e,rtastic Italian
"Commedia dellArte," while .he sordid grim
ness of La Malquerida" (The Ill-Desired
GirD somewhat recalls the mood of DAN
nunzio in "The Daughter of Jorio" But
this marshaling of literary roots" must
not be misinterpreted as rejecting on Senor
Benayente's distinctive qualities His treat
ment of themes, his development of
character and sense of situation are all
thoroughly Iberan--so much so in fact
that the appeal of any of this quartet of
footlight offerings on the Engsh-speaking
stage Is likely to be negligible.
In this regard Benavente is strikingly
dissimilar to both Echegaray and Guimera,
whose art has long since crossed the Pyre-
nees The formers "El Gran Galeoto" and
Mariana" are easily understood abroad,
So are the Marta of the Lowlands" (Tierra
Baia) and maria Rosa" of Angel Guimera
of metropolitan Barcelona.
Benavente in English seems rather to be-
long to the exotic class. Adapting" his
PLAYS would stultify them, Presenting them
with all their intense, racial qualities. with
their subteties of Hispanic flavorng for
eign to the outside world would probably
be equally futile. What seem to be some
what staggering unrealites of character
and motivation are in all likelihood the
very essences of realism in their habitat
The very surety of BenaVente's manner
strange as 1t often is, impels this convic-
ton. As library plays however, they very
effectively reflect the coloring and scope
of one of the leading dramatsts of. Spain
though not yet of Europe and Amefica, as
was the great Echegaray.
1t may be added that II Is a relief to
denote the paucity of stage directions and
italicized character analysis in Benayente.
Bernard Shaw and Granville Barker have
| lately carried that procedure to somewhat I
wearisome excess. The return to simplicity
| is decidedly welcome.

Why Merchants Fail

A surprisingly large number OF retail
merchants find il impossible TO make money
After trying to run an independent busl-
ness for while they give up and secure
employment with a man who has learned
the secret of success If some of the ran
ures had carefully studied such book
as Retail Buying" by Clifton Field, for
merly with Marshall Field & Co. OF Chi-
cago, they would have learned how to tnd
the leaks which drained away all their
profits. The author has covered larger
field than the title of his book would indi-
cate. for he discusses not only the best
way to buy, but he explains the principles
on which retail prices should be liked ana
the best way to compute profits Special
chapters are given to meeting competition,
to stockkeepng, to judging qualities OF
goods and to similar matters of first i'm
portance in any successful business. The
book is the second volume in a series on
retail business edited by John b. Swinney.

he was feeling few weeks ago. l could
not see that it was our war. I was will

act like brute beasts began to see that
1t was not merely a European quarrel
that had begun"
"Yes, was slow, too, in coming to a
realization of what was going on" Doctor
McFabre confessed.
when the Germans trampled on all
the decencies of life," owen went on;
when they tore up written agreements
and broke their pllghted word when
they attempted to force their standard
Of civilization on the rest of the world
by the perpetration of incredible atroci-
ties, I concluded that it was our duty to
Join in the work of destroying this mad
beast of Prussianism, and that If we
neglected it we were likely to suffer the
consequences in the future--consequence
that would not be at all agreeable. So
I am ready to fight for the preservation
of the decencies of life and for the per-
petuation of honor among nations"

Doctor, for 1t shows what great issues

small New England farming community
