TIE Age Of Innocence.

Youth, like spring, taunts the person
who is not a poet. Just because it Is
formative and fugitive 1t evOkes imag-
inatiOn, it has a bloom too mOmentary
to be self-consc1Ous, vanished almost
as soon as it is seen. In boys, as well
as girls, this beauty diselOses itself.
It is a delicacy as tender as the first
green leaf, an innocence like the SHIN,
mering dawn, brightness of azure,
clouds of fragrance, tinkle of falling
water and singing birds" People feel
this when they accept youth as i'm
maculate and heed its mute expec-
tancies. The mother whose boy is at
twenty has every right to feel he is
idyllic, to think that youth has the air
of spring about 1t, that spring is the
morning Of the gods. Youth is so
often handsome and straight and fear
less, 1t has its mysterious silences, its
beings are beings of clear fire in high
spaces, kin with the naked stars. Yet
there is in 1t something not less fiery
which is far more human. Youth is
also a Columbus with mutineers on
board.-F. H. in the New Republic.

THE NEW DRAMAT1ST.

Aaron Hoffman Is the latest author
to repeat q name on programmes OF
Broadway. He Is coauthor with Sam
uel Shipman Of Friendly Enemies"
and the sole author-all reports credit
Ing the genial and afrable star to the
contrary notwi:hstanding--of" Nothing
but Lies" william Golfers comedy.
The patrons Of vaudeville theatres
have long known the name of Mr..
Hoffman. He has written the best
satires and monolosues which have
been used. The late Cliff Gordon won
fame with the political satires written
by Mr., Hoffman, and Lew Dockstader
is now using his monologue material
as he has done for many years. In
deed, the elite Of polite and effective
vaudeville have been his clients for
many years. ever since the days when
he was a STRIPPING writer in Chicago.

through with It. Every telling poin,
must register, and If It does not the
actor injects a new line or situation
until he finds one that does.
Mr.. Golfers methods are those OF
the skilled workman who wants his
tools to be the best that can be OBJ
tanned. His methods do not always
meet with the hearty cooperation Of
authors, but In the end the author is
apt to admit that Collier has bettered
his play.
In Nothing But Lies" many situa-
lions and a good many Of the laugh
provoking lines are due to the stars
energy. He always knows what he
wants and when he starts out to make
a change he plans and arranges the
change 30 that It appears to be part OF
the original structure.
The player who IL a member Of the
company 10 always sure Of surprises,
for the star doesn't hesitate to change
a line or situation or cut out whole

keeps every one on his mettle. Play
ers appreciate his ability and the
shrewd ones study his methods. But
he is the despair Of authors. He never
tires of rehearsing. 1t Is related OF
him that he continued injecting new
lines into Nothing But the Truth" his
last successful starring venture. which
he used two -years-up until the last
day Of the end of the plays run, where

William Collier will always be re-

him as an actor who never lays down

Of the game SO well--because Of his
early training under the master hand
OF Augustin Daly--that he can tell in
