the comedy OF Bohemia that II will
be with q sense OF surprise that many
people will realize him capable OF
such strong. realistic and almost
grave piece OF work as The House
OF Lynch"
Here we have fine and powerful
study of an artist and the girl he
inarries fighting for freedom from the
tyranny of his fathcr-in-law's tainted
millions. The challenge OF poverty
and !dcalism 10 wealth and unscrupu-
lousness Is desperately hard to main
tain, 3nd--sincere in his art as he
always is-Mr. Merrick never allows
us to suppose It anything else: but
also. In spite OF his humor and OF
his suavity OF style, he never leaves
on the readers mind the least doubt
mat the struggle is worth maintain
ing.

personal wealth are coming more
and more under suspicion for their
evil effects on their owners and on

The trouble with American girls and
women, she believes, is that they de-
pend entirely too much upon their
brothers, fathers or young men ac-
quaintanccs for success. They should
map out their own future, she says,
and dig into it, Although at all times
it will not be easy for them to pursue
and color matters q bit, but all the
while be pounding away at the one big
aim they set out to achieve.
The stage is not the only means by
which girls may make themselves use

which they could, if they would, domi-

women whispering and shaking their
heads in disapproval of me. They
weren't accustomed to seeing a young
woman appear in anything but tights
and fluffy ballet skirts, and my way of
dressing did not appeal to them. There
was no sex play. My lonc skirts simply

1t is matter of record that in Du-

audience that held her. They would not
