A Just and Clever satire.

Now that war has passed and the
reconstruction period is beginning
to take form at the hands of
statesmen" some of the men OF
letters who did admirable service
for their respective governments as
Investigators and as authors are
settling down again to their for
mer work of creative literature.
Witness William Archer. the scotch
critic and polemiclst, to whom we
owe so much in pioneer, interpreta-
tion Of Ibsen and other scandi-
navian authors. Mr.. Archer has
written his first play. one with an
Asistic background, and with Win
throp Ames as producer is TO honor
America by it's first production.
Similarly, Mr.. Arthur Bullsrd. now
in Washington, whose writings on
Russia have proved valuable TO per-
sons interested in contemporary
history. has returned to his first
love-nction-and in The Stranger"
mas written a satire on certain
phases Of our national life. en-
ploying the old but ever attractive
device of the imagined letters Of a
foreign visitor. He may not be as
successful as G. Loves Dickinson
was in deceiving Mr.. Bryan, but he
Will md an old constituency Of ad-
mfrers ready to pay tribute to an
other indication of his versatility as
an artist. OF the ''inteIlectuaIs"
among the American Socialists he is
conspicuous for sanity and a sense
OF historlcity too often lacking.
