DREW C0NGRATULATES
CITY DRAMA LEAGUE

In his finest English accent and most
debonalr manner. John Drew yester-
day afternoon told the members Of the
Wilmington Drama League and their
| friends they had q great work cut out
for them, and encouraged them to go
ahead with 1t. Mr.. Drew addressed the
league and its friends in the Playhouse
at 40 o'clock. The lower floor Of the
house was about half filled.
The Playhouse orchestra, which was
rehearsing for the night performance
Of THE Cat-Bird," in which Mr.. Drew
is starring here, provided a prelude to
the stars entrance, and single drop
curtain depicting flowers in May form
ed an optimistic background. Chris
topher L. Ward did the introducing,
although saying that an introduction OF
Mr.. Drew to a Wilmington audience
was entirely "superfluous." He gave a
brief resume of the histrionic achieve
ments of the Drew family.
Mr.. Drew himself received applause
which left no doubt as to the admira-
tion for him felt by those present.
Ladies and gentlemen" he began, that
is il there are any gentlemen here, for
usually there are none or very few at
such affairs as there" As there were
a number Of men present, Mr.. Drew's
qulp caused amused smiles. The actor
then said the quality Of plays produced
depended upon the desires of the pub
lie, and any effect on the part Of the body
of discerning persons, such as a drama
league, would ultimately result in
finer presentation Of beauty and truth.
He agreed with the opinion Of French
writer's that the drama was dhe great
est expression Of art.
Referring TO the widening latitude
in character Of plays Of late years, Mr..
Drew humorously remarked that (
young girls Of today occasionally (
overstep the bounds Of propriety by /
actually taking their grandparents to |
plays their grandparents ought not to /
see"
Miss Ethel Wilson, president Of the 4
Drama League, thanked Mr.. Drew in /
behalf Of the audience and expressed /
he hope that other stars could be .
leard similarly as the season pro-
yresses.
