Enthusiasm In the Theater.

"SoME day" says William Harri-
gan. visiting star with the Gar
rick Players. Il hope to see the same
enthusiasm in the theater that you
find at the, Georgia avenue ball park
when the Nationals play base ball.
"It won't come until the actor and
the manager and the crowd learn to
play 'theater.' each realizing that the
game of the theater is a big, artistic
realization; that it calls for the best
in the world of imagination from
every partaker in the game. whether
he has a box seat or one in the
bleachers; that any one who doesn't
play the game fairly and squarely for
all he's worth is dishonoring the
game and should be put out.
Managers. authors and players
must give their best-their decent
best. The crowd must assist in the
honorable treatment of a great game
and boycott the sensational and the
charlatan by demanding that We all
play theater. When that concerted
moment comes the theater will have
become as thoroughly established as
a national pastime as base ball, and
really indecent plays will be impos-
sible."

The playing of Tchaikowsky's 1872

the lighting of such music. because it
is probably the most widely known

Three themes are easily recogniz-

the Russian hymn God Preserve Thy
