Dram a

BY Heywood Broun

Lore Dunsany filled us with a poig-

play, THE Laughter Of the Gods"

IRONY seems not adequately fused with
tne mann intent, and yet there is no
oehylng the enormous dramatic grip

The play follows the usual Dunsany

Up in Mabel's Room
Opens at Eltinoc Theatre

Up i'll Mabel's Room" which A. Fl.
Woods presented at the Eltinge The
atre last night, is quite frankly the
farce of double entendre. Indeed, it is
so broad that it quite overlaps the pro-
rrieties at either side All the humors
of marital suspicion, the Peeping Tom
vulgarites of the bedroom, the tecter-
ing suspense of imminent intimate dis
closures are exploited to make up its
effects. The loud laughter it excited
last night was not tribute to the
of its characteristic was n tribute to
the technical skill of Messrs Wilson
Collision and Otto Harbach, who have
mastered the thoroughly tested expedi-
ents of farce. They know to a fraction
the amount of laughter to be counted
upon by each familiar device.
The farce turns upon the elaborate
efforts of q young husband to recover
an indscreet but quite innocent gift
of a chemise to former inamorata
He fears that this gift will some day
come to light and iniure him with his
wife, who is very jealous of his former
affections. The chemisc and its pur-
suit proves the flimsiest excuse for the
series of situations which at one time
or other places every one IN the play
in bad odor. Though the fact is firmly
planted in advance that every one in
the play is wholly without guiltAno
opportunity is lost for coarse innuendo.
A particularly tasteless group of peo-
pie go through its particularly tasteless
convolutions.
Hazel Dawn plays the arch heroine
of the adventure. 1t is pity that so
pretty woman has so raucous a voice.
Walter Jones had no difficulty in sug-
gesting the broad humors of jealous
husband, who in turn has suspicion

'ss cert of the Schola
CantOrum
By II. E. Krehbiel

Artist. madrigals from the classic
period in the musical history of Eng
land and Italy, modern arrangements
of folkmelodies from England, Spain
and Russia, ballads by a Spanish com
poser of recent day and a melody Of
old English songs and catches made up
the somewhat heterogeneous. but, new
ertheless, interesting, programme OF
the Schole Cantorum which Mr.. Kurt
SCHNEIDER conducted and to which MT.
Lambert Murphy contributed q beau
tiful feature in Carnegie Hall last
night. The pieces were numerous and
suggestive of cons derations appro-
pirate to the present time when the
characters of peoples, races and ma
tons are forcing themselves UPON the
popular mind. There was scarcely one
in the list which might not be dwclt
upon if time and space allowed; which
they do not just nov. some may be
taken up hereafter, for ,uch concert
ought not to be looked upon as an
ephemeral thing Ike any other one
of the score of entertainments which
are crowding each week of the pres
ent season.
The performance of the choir is
more easily disposed of, for r Ugh lights
fell upon it in only few spots-mora
especially in two madrigas by Pales-
trina and two ballads by the Spanish
composer, Juan Montes, the great
beauty Of which was enhanced by the
exquisite singing OF Mr.. Murphy, WHO
did much also to save the old English
folksong "Brigg Fair from the dan
ger with which the sophistication of it's
setting by Percy Granger threatened it.
The retirement of the Musical Art So
ciety (Which it is much to be hoped is
only temporary, left the classical q
cdDelln field open to Mr.. Schindler's
choir, and though the singing of three
English madrigals by Byrd Dowland
and Greaves, and a fine Italian speci-
men by Luca Marenzio was not as ef-
fective as might have been wished. the
lovers of this high type of art had rea
son to be grateful for what was vouch-
safed them. Perfect finish in such
music is scarcely to be expected of
large choir constituted like that of the
Schola Cantorum.
An i'll advised grouping of some folk
songs from Catalonia and two Russ ian
choruses by Leo Ornstein resulted in
monotony from the singular similarity
in their musical themes (though their
subjects were varied enough), and it is
possible that some ears were offended
by a few passing harmonies by the
young Russan-American which pro-
duced an effect like temporary aber-
ration from pitch in the momentary
suspension of its functions by the bel
lows of an organ. These things, how
ever were forgotten in the cheery,
wholesome spirit of the quodlibet of
old English songs arranged by Mr..
SCHNEIDER with which the concert came
to an end, just, as it seemed, when the
audience had been keyed up to real en-
joyment. But the mood which the
merry rounds and songs created was
good one to carry away from the con-
