Lack of proper committee-rCOm ia

committees have been similarly hand1-

In place OF comfortable, clean and
well-aired rooms in regular office
buildings which have been placed at
the disposal Of the legislators during
past sessions, the committees this
year are asked to meet in barn-like
stalls partitioned off with plaster
board in the old dining room of the
Northwest. With a view to high prof
it's and little expense the manage
ment has carried its partitions only
part way to the ceilings, and il1'com-
mittee in deliberation at one end or
the big room is forced to listen to
the debate before another committee
at the opposite end.
The rooms, poor as they are are in
sufficient, and it is daily necessary
for important committees to postpone
their work until another committee
has finished. The state affairs com
mittee in the house had hoped this
morning to consider the bill regulat-
ing salaries Of county officers, but
after seeking for an hour Or more to
find some place where it could meet,
it gave up in disgust. The committee

rightfully be termed farce, but in pure
comedy, the humor must be derived
more largely from the mental ana
verbal contrasts. Many theatergoers
are inclined to a view that anything
which causes excessive amusement is
farcical. This attitude of mind might
eliminate some of the most delightful
plays of Shakespeare and Moliere from
the realm Of comedy to which they
rightfully belong. However, in these
more or less irreverent days the thea
tergoer is not particularly inclined to
bother about terms. The question that
generally concerns him is whether a
play interests or amuses him, and its
exact classification is matter OF little
moment.
1.-THE acting Of farce, contrary to gen.
eral opinion, is an extremely difficult
art" continues Miss Mayo. 1t is
rather odd, is it not, that amateur ac-
tors usually select some well known
farce to inflict themselves on their
friends. Now, q serious play WIFI very
often carry conviction through its own
innate force, whereas farce, to be eff
fectige, often requires the most deli

gesture and action that is too pro.

Finally got hold of something that

Years have passed and the rupture has

no operation, no lost time, no trouble.
I have nothing to sell, but will give

find a complete cure without operation
if you write to me, Eugene NJ. Pullen.

bing in and out of baskets, closets
doors upon which the question of the
laugh depends. Those are mere physl
cal developments which would not be
particularly amusing in themselves
were it not for the accompanying
thought of the spectator. He has &
mental picture of what these sudden
entrances and exits may lead to, AND
this picture is created by the deft
ness, first of the author. in developing
the situations and the lines; secondly
by the cooperating efforts Of the play
ers in delivering those same lines and
situations. 1t is what / might cal
composite visualization-a projecting
of pictures by means Of words and &C
ton combined.
"The amateur at farce generally Pre-
ceeds on the assumption that noise anf
accident will bring about the desired
results Of responsive laughter. But 7:

How One Woman Wooes

Laughter. t.

TT was Nine. De Stael, was 1t not,
who once remarked that women
must be lacking in a sense or
humor, or why should they ever
take men seriously? And Nine. De
Staels finding, culiously enough, has
been that Of the world at large. Men
pride themselves on their sense OF
humor, as a rule, while denying the
possession Of that saving grace to the
so called weaker sex. Congratulations,
however, are apt to he misleading. rms
one about women and humor, for In
stance. Curious, is it not, in the light
Of that finding, that the best farce
written in this country for years
possibly in any country-should nave
been the work Of a woman? For to
write farce, as to act it and appreciate
It. depends entirely upon the posses
sion of the rare quality OF sense OF
humor.
When she wrote Baby Mine," which
has been laughed at. and, incidentally,
brought her royalties from all parts OF
the civilized globe, Miss Margaret
Mayo may not have demonstrated the
fact that the exception proves the rule.
But, in any case, she did certainly
demonstrate the fact that one woman
at least possessed a distinctly keen
sense of humor. And now in Irwin
Beds" the current success of laughter
at the Fulton Theater in New York,
Miss Mayo proves that the humor OF
farce was not the result Of accident,
for in the new piece she is ABOUT
equally successful in wooing the God
dcss. of the Guffaw. Wherefore, being
an authority upon the subject OF
farce and laughter Miss Mayo's COM
ments should prove interesting. Pine
10 once remarked that comedy IS
successful farce by a deceased au-
thor which served to show among
other things that the famous English
playwright was piQued at having the
term used in connection with his plays.
And vet he need not have resented it.
AS alvin Beds is soon to be seen
here Miss Mayo's views are especially
interesting.
''The real distinction between COM
edy and farce lies in the propeliing
power Of the action she says. TX
this energy comes from the, character
OF an individual or individuals and

situation rules and the characters and
pupDets are tied to its strings you

the broad sense any play. u4t pro
