LONDON, February finest spectacle of royal pomp and an- | clent pageantry, the royal opening of | Parliament, was enacted at noon today. It lacked just a little of its usual bril- ! liance, however, because for the first| time in his reign King George was not accompanied by Queen Mary.

Tyler was presented at the National Theater last night, when favorite players thronged the stage to depict the inei- dents of “Diplomacy” and to vivify its characte “Diplomacy” is not Sardou at the height of his temperamental energy. It is the work of the dramatist more con- with his plot than with his characters: ous of logical pro- portion in the arrangement of events and depending but slightly on sudden outbursts of emotion. It needs such a cast as is here pro- vided to bring it out as an even and well adjusted mechanism, with oppor- tunities for each player in turn to sus- EVERYBODY Jears - YOUR CoucH —and so should ,ou, for it is often infectious and dangerous to those around you.

It Is frankly Victorian in quality, thougir modernized in dress. Assurpnce | is given that the text has been but little altered since its original presentation of 50 years ago. It's first title, “Dora,” im- plied that the author intended the suf- ferings of a woman falsely accused, not of perfidy in the ordinary domestic sense, so much as treachery to country, to be the overwheiming theme. As a study in romantic phases of world in- in & way to make the revelation of in- tellectual ingenuity as compelling in interest as the emotional scenes be- tween lovers separated by unjust sus- plcion, To go closely into the merits of each player would expand a passing comment into ponderous proportions. It is enough to point to the list of well known friends of the footlights and note the fact that each finds in this remarkable drama of well distributed opportunities some- | thing peculiarly to his liking.

Willlam Faversham exemplifies the shrewd diplomatist ‘who lwl&s true love as well as affairs of state to run smoothly. Orloff, whose denunciation of a woman spy cause suspicion to fall upon Dora, has some of the most responsible moments, and Jacob Ben Ami fills them with tense arlistry. A rather slight role of a young secretary 1s given an appeal, humorous yet discreet, by Antony Holles.
