22 THE NJBTW YOBK CLIPPER. December 2 QtMyms, Wmmm® Bulihc Dew York Fcny-««<»d«wJBto*d««r Christmas, Nineteen-Thirteen To People who Write; and to People who Aot:- I want Plays of Youth. I believe that the artietio taste of the American public is the healthiest in the world, and therefore I an searching only for those plays which are clean, wholesome and sweet. In comedy, I have faith only in those comedies whose humor is essentially in the characters and their situations; comedies not devoid of dramatic situation and incident; comedies not cold and glittering, but those in which smiles and laughter are intermingled with tears and heart-throbs—- human oomedies. I desire to correspond with profes- sional people of energy, originality and ambition. I want youthful people for youthful parts, providing they have a oertain amount of experience. I want to find another author who can unveil sunshine and laughter and love aa J. Hartley Manners unveiled them when he wrote "Peg o 1 My Heart," whioh the art of laurette Taylor has made the most success- ful ooaedy in the world. OUT OF TOWN NEWS Jersey CItr, N. J Majestic (F. B.
