It is easy to say Do this and Don tdo that. I ndeed, I could have reiterated both at such length that I might have written a book quite as long as this on any one of the points that I have tried to take up here chapter by chapter. I do most fervently believe that the dry bones of stage technique can be taught in fact, all my personal experience goes to prove this. I have been handling plays now for more years than I care to remember, and have found in case after case that a little technical adjustment will turn i an unmarketable play into a commercial propo! sition. 1Y et when all is said and done, I am no believer in hard and fast rides. The one point always to bear in mind is that any rule, however necessary, can be modified to suit each individual case. A bove all, times change. What is desired one year will be met with indifference the next. The great precept which no dramatist can afford to overlook is, that he must study the needs of his time. Agnes Piatt. 24, Old Bublington Stbeet, W. 1.
