HERE are familics in real life where the flapper daughter continuously holds the centre of the stage with her parents and other elders standing about attendant on what she is saying and doing. It is not usually so mechanically and obviously done as in “Bab,” the enjoyable comedy of youth provided by Mrs. Rinehart and Mr. Carpenter to exploit the really unusual abilities of Helen Hayes. Still it is done in a way, sometimes, so we must not cavil at its display in this drama with a purpose. The purpose is unmistakably to ex- ploit the young star, and in this case the end justifies the means. Mr. Tyler, her manager, and others who have been claiming great things for her in the same terms that have often been used before, with disappointment to those who believed them, have in this performance found full justification for their praise and faith, It seems a long jump to go back to Lotta fora prece- dent but there is something about the sparkle and spontaneity of Helen Hayes’s work as well as its sureness which brings back that always refreshing remembrance. Here is recorded the bromidic hope that Helen Hayes will not be spoiled She is very young for it, a wise little head on her Metcalfe by her present success. but appears to have shoulders, and may escape.
