speak of a theatrical initiative which is pure and noble. The modem theatre, which more often than not is of a very low, and degrading tone, will unfortunately pass down to posterity as one of the shameful things of our time. It is therefore worth while to speak of a perform ance such as the Tempest which embodies good taste and pure art, if for no other reason than to point out one good thing out of so many unworthy ones, and the perform ances of this theatre are amongst the most beautiful to be unre- servedly admired in the present day European theatre.

To mention only a few: A long illustrated article in the Teacher's World (August 30, 1923) An article by Mr. Bartlett in the Christian Science Monitor beginning with these words: The while they pleasantly flatter and smallest theatre in Rome is also the best Mr. E. Beresford Chan- cellor has not only written about the theatre, but has composed a little play, an episode out of Dickens' child-life with a vision of some of his most renowned charac- ters, which it is hoped may be given in the near future,"
