here was magnificcnuy staged last
night as bitter and despondent and re-
scntful a play as this city has seen In
our time. This is the piece which
William 4. Brady has wisely decided

cheerless and provocative piece writ

was left in Europe when the great war
ended. 1t is far and away the hand
soonest and most ambitious project of
all Brady's adventuring in the thea

planned 1t in Prague and 10 another
artist who stood at Brady's elbow
throughout the process OF importation
IT emerged last night a thrilling and
magnificent spectacle.
Taking his cues from Aesop and
from Ia Fontaine, Karel Capek turned

more forcibly his say about the human
race. After inspecting us moodily for

largest accomplishment the prepara

was pretty messy. mean and prepos-
ferrous form of life-creatures dragging
out universally brief and futile ex-
istence in the worst of all possible
worlds.
In sundry acrid and fantastic scenes
this play asks rhetorically and scorn-
fully the age old question: Whats
the use?" 1t is a question to which
there rose at one time or another in

MISS HOWELL IN SONGS.

Miss Dicie Howell, soprano. gave {
song recital yesterday in Aeolian Hall
She has evidently made an enviable place
for herself with New York music lovers
since she first sang here on Novembe,
8, 1919. She had a large audience anc
- applause was warm and genuine
Some of her best singing was done il
such difficult numbers as Handel's 20
S-eep! Why Dost Thou Leave me q
Also his "Oh Had l JubaPs Lyre !!
Brahms's "Mainacht' and Die Lorelei'
of Liszt. where she showed for the most
part, an admirable vocal technic and d
good style.
In two old Italian airs at the outset
by Rosa and Paradies, her lyric type OF
voice was a little shrill and uneven. but
warming up 1t soon became more SER
viceable apd pleasing. Miss Howells
diction was ~commendable and her ex-
preston of sentiment general charm
ing. The accompaniments were well
played by Frederic Person.
