One group of collaborators whose work was ‘apparent but who did not have a chance to receive the applause which they merited ,was the technical corps. To them credit is due for the fatiguing work of building sets, shift- ing Scenery, collecting properties and making possible a thoroughly admir- “able production. And, finally, to Miss learned and Mr. Windust, who managed and coached the play, is due not. only p-aise for their accomplishment, but thanks for. an enjoyable evening. _. The whole affair was in the nature of an experiment. Not everyone was sure that the difficulties of collabora- tion, much of it at a distance of, fifty miles, would. be overcome. But the serious eagerness to work and com- petence of the two groups to do things togetlier overcame all of the problerhs as they arose and left a ‘pleased audi- ence convinced of. the success of the ‘venture. It brought together two dra- matic companies of similar aspirations and ideas‘ to the profit of both and it was_the hope of the audience that this “will not be their only_venture_ to- “Lady Mary getiier.

Even the street cars in Prague are hung with newspapers for the weary business men coniing home from the office, or perchance for his maid. One of the many wonders of the city to me was the student reading room at the so-called “Akademicky Dum” or ‘student union house. Over | one thousand six hundred newspapers | and periodicals .are_ regularly available to the students, and these publications come from almost every nation, in almost ‘every language. German, Russian, French, American and English papers are there in great numbers. Furthermore, every chair in. the vast room is occupied from opening to closing.

An interesting rule of the room gives some idea of the tenacity with which these stu- dents pursue their-study and reading. It is: “Students leaving the room for ‘lunch cannot hold chairs for more than one-half. hour.” : ' This strange situation—people read- ing so many different papers every day—should be explained by certain facts, which define the European newspapers.
