HUMOROUS IN HIS PROTEST

You might have waited for m,

it,, remarked his subject-or victim
rs you please-to Bohun Lynch, when
the latter communicated the news that
he was about to write Max Beer
bohm in Perspective"
But admirers of BeerbOhm will ngree
that the Beerbohmian protests against
Its publication in themselves Justify
the volume, according to the Living
Age. Here they are:
Il remember several booB. abou
men who, not yet dead, had blandl>
AIDED and allotted the author; and /
remember what awful asses those men
seemed to Inc thereby to have ,uad,
OF themselves. Two of them werr
rather great men. They could af-
ford TO make awful asses of them
selves. |, who am 100 miles away
from being great, cannot afford such
luXuries.
My gifts are small. I've used them
very well and discreetly, never strain

made charming little reputation. But
that reputation is frail plant. Don't
over-attend to it, Gardener Lynch !!
Don't drench and deluge itl The

 at the head of vaudeville companies
 during the coming season.
 For several years past, explained
 MT. Shea. theatre goers in cities out
 side of the metropolis had not been
 given the opportunity of seeing really high class vaudeville, although the
 demand for such entertainment was evidenced by generous patronage ac- corded the drama and musical com edy. The Shuberts seemed to have sensed this demand and fulfilled it as their success in the vaudeville field last season was a sensation in thear- rical circles. Each Shubert Vaude- vile Production includes beside the featured star several separate acts se- lected from the best vaudeville talent | in the country beside a one-act | musical comedy production in which | are cast an average of 40 people.
