As an onlooker therefore I am only too glad to say that “The Old Coun- try” has Faversham’s charm—and | this moans @ great deal to playgoers who turn to the stage for good taste. Mr. Faversham is both a gentleman and an actor. He could take the play he now has on his hands and filck it ff his fnger-tips without the slight- est effort.

Lacking the vigor and the reality that Arnold Bennett has put into his stories, Mr. Calthrop ts content to t his pen on the sentiment that England accepted, just as it took jam for breakfast, before the war. The story he tells is extravagantly sen- mental. A man without a father to his name comes back from America to wreak vengeance on the digni- tarles of an English village who had driven big mother and hig own pre cious self from the place, To ac- complish this purpose he brings his mother to the manor house where she had worked as a servant, intent upon establishing her there, without stopping to think she would probably be most uncomfortable, forced to meet the man who should have been her husband, according to sympathetic —performa “doctored” + tor betraying sym aomething ‘or ns |stances.
