In my review of this act last
Tuesday, I said Two men imper-

ence Seeley and company. Very lit
tie artistry shown here"
I am still of that opinion, but 1
probably should have used much
stronger language about the cat i'm
presentations.
The letter bearing the name of
Frank Livingston is as follows:
MY Dear Mr. Hickman:
THE biggest laugh of the season
is the writeup of the Lyric vaude-
vile bill this week.
ut is very evident that you are
entirely bored with living or are too
young to know what constitutes a
good act.
Had this revue been written by
George Jean Nathan or the de-
ceased Alan Dale, we might be led
/ to believe that we are all terrible
performers, but coming from one in
such a small town, it certainly
means very little.
Having met some of your citizens
and leading dancing teachers, We
have fine idea of how you stand
in the eyes of the public.
eff you are trying to establish
yourself in the world of theatrical
critics, you are picking a very bad
way of doing it.
ut really is waste of time to
write this, and although 1 suppose
you will achieve some amount of
satisfaction from knowing that your
article has at last reused a per-
former, I also will be pleased to tell
you that you're not getting away
with thing.
"IC is a very lamentable fact that
you know so little about artistry and
would suggest that you leave your
stool and desk at The Times office
and devote time to the study of
the fundamental principles of stage
craft.
ut is an outstanding fact that you
are one Of very ordinary tastes and
cannot appreciate ain actors desire
to do his best for the audience. You
evidently are envious of the talent
Of performers.
Should you care to publish this
letter, go ahead. 1t may help to
establish you with your dear public.
FRANK LIVINGSTON,
Lyric Theater."
1t is really too bad, Mr.. Livings-
ton, that you have to receive a
weeks salary from such a small
town" II is too bad that small
town audience had to contribute to
your salary for week. I am of
Indianapolis and 1 am proud of it
although 1 am just small town"
critic. But don't squawk at the
town that is giving me my living.
And I am not full of vinegar
against the public. I tell my public
what think about an act and that
public has the right to have its own
verdict.
Not member of this public has
written me this week protesting
against my verdict of the Florence
Seeley act.

Traditional designs of Christmas

to the same ideas expressed in discs,
angles and curves.
For those who prefer the old form
there are cards with reproductions of
the favorite snow scenes and stage
coaches, but even these are biggen than
ever and are touched by the modern
vogue in the lining of the envelopes,
which display profusions of angles and
curves in pink, purple, red, black, gold,
gray and green.
IN wrapping paper silver triangles
are imposed, one upon the other. against
a red background, to make Christmas
