The applause which greeted Miss
Helen Dauvrny. who enme bnek te

fiBure In "The Bat" at the Adclphl

ytars retirement, playgoers of nn
earlier generation had net forgotten her
nnd her triumphs lit the old Lyceum
Theatre in New Yerk In such roles ns i
Suzznnna in "A Kcrnp of Paper," Peg
Wofflngten in "Masks and Faces" nnd
Constance in "A Love Chase."
When Mien Tlnmrrnr nt tlie helnM nf
her bucccm, retired from the beards 'he
became the wife of Admiral Wintcr-
halter. The sudden death of her hus
band left Miss Dauvray In affluent cir
cumstances, but a nervous breakdown
was scarcely alleviated by a jear's so
journ en the Riviera. Her friends ad
viEcd her te return te the stage. And
se when she was offered the congenial
role of Cernelia Van Gerdcr in "The
Hat" Miss Dauvray accepted the part
fei the run of the play here in rhiln
delphiu. This, she declares, will mark
her farewell te stageland.

Bitterness of Life in
Galsworthy's Plays
The "Six Short Plays" of Jehn Gals
worthy, gathered together and issued in
cne volume, hnve all the appearances
of having been written nt different
periods In his life although the fopr fepr
tlghts range between 1015 and ivn.
The volutne bears the Scribncr imprint.
They are certainly varying in lypa
nnd Btyle. Seme of them ought te make
excellent material for ambitious bodies
of amateurs trying' te uplift the drama ;
a ceuple would mnke satisfactory curtain-raisers,
and one, the first Inci
dentally Its name Is "The Firtt and
the Last" Is a compactly censliuctcd.
atmospheric tragedy that fairly reeks of
fogs and Londen alleyways. It de
serves a painstaking production with a
geed cast.
As a whole, the collection Is one of
"closet playa'' which ought te provide
variety enough for any ene who has
ceme te rcallr.c the value and pleasure
derived from reading plays as well ob
seeing them. The plays are net In Mr.
Galsworthy's best mood, but nt least
three of the six rise above the slip
shod methods which have sometimes
crept into his novels.
"The First nnd the Last " n story in
contrast of two brothers, ene a drunk
ard, dope-fiend and general geed-for-nothing,
the ether n prosperous, wcll wcll
censldered lawyer, might almost be ex
panded into a full-length drama. Hvcn
as it stands, the three sccnea are of
considerable length for such a play and
would require rather complicated stag
ing te make them ns effective as the
story that Is told.
The playwright here is in a brutal
mood. HonIiews the degradation of the
unfortunate brother led te a cllmas In
a murder committed ever a girl. Then
Mr. Galsworthy proceeds te tear down
(he character of the well-to-de Mether,
strips blm of his honor nnd nulls down
the curtain en his shame and dishonor.
Theatrically, as well .ns dramatically,
the play has great possibilities. Ont
scene, with something of the ntmesphcrn
of Stevenson's "mele," the little acted
"Deacon Bredle," lins the footsteps of
a pellccmnn passing by outside through
out the tense action.
Twe plays, Fember and bleak, deal
directly with the wnr, one having its
action during the course of the fighting,
the ether showing n rietuched, sordid
little nftermnth. This latter play, "Ihe
Sun," again shows the bitterest aid" in
its author. It has three character, a
girl, her lever and her former lever,
whom she hnd premised te marry when
he went away te war. Cockney accent
seems a bit strange, somehow, in Mr.
Galsworthy's hands, although he has
used it as far back as "Justice" and
"The Meb."
The opposite kind of thing, English
country life, which Americans" cniiuet
or will net seem te understand, is
prominent in "Hall-Marked" which if
the truth be told seems like n great
(leal of fuss about nothing at all.
Lightness of touch is another nswt In
which this author Is net well endowed.
"The I.ltHe Man." a satire in two
secnen m 1th characters from ueveral
countries, has clever moments, but
never seems te reach anywhere. The
American, by the wav. Is net drawn
with nny tee real or clever a pen. It Is
the Knglish comic-paper American.
