NEW TORN.—If yotsr correspondent ha* lost that grim and baleful pan and is seen to wander about on Broadway with a beatific grin obscured by a thick aura of nostalgia, pleaae blame it on “Ufa With Father”, the gentle comedy of the late ’ElO's, which now hold* forth at the Empire Theatre. Imagine hi* unmiied pleasure in eeetng, so early in the season, the season a best play I He might even stretch a point and call it the best play of a half dozen seasons. And for once he is in complete accord with the city's dramatic critic*. As one man they stood and cheered. It was worth it The play's based on those sometime* ouamt, frequently amusing and always faacinatmg pieces written for the New Yorker bv the late Clarence Day, Jr., describing life with hi* father—• testy, tempestuous, honest, generous and gruffly kindly New Yorker in th* eight}**, when New York wag • city in which on* lived with a family and when pug dog* were still fashionable. It was the day of the brownstone bouse, that fascinating edifte* on which a rococo civilisation was built—the day of a more leisured lif* and i day when father, bleaa him, was ttill boss in his own home. At least he thought he was. He know* better nowaday*. He just does what mother tells him and grumble* a little at hi* kid*. They didn’t do that in the eighties. Father's word was law, but frequently father's word* seemed to eoine from mother'! lip« and that made everything all right There isn’t much to ‘ Life With Father* at which one could point a captious finger. The plot, if plot tt can be called, center* on the fart.that father wm never baptised. The procew of achieving this baptism carries the play

along. But then, oven without it the play would have been a beautiful and tenderly amusing evening. Such a man wa* Clarence Day, Sr., that a faithful factual description of hi* day* (which th* play seems to be) is enough to bring back to those fortunate to be old enough a vanished and irretrievable day and a gwntl* mode of life which will never roturn. In ft father solvo* the problem* of hia family, solve* hia own, manage* to lire with a great deal of noise and an endless if gruff affection, and watches hia three sons grow to responsibl* manhood. Howard Lindsay plays father with what restraint ia possible. Dorothy Stickney i* a gentle and maternal Mrs. Day. The children are effectively offered by John Drew Devereaux, Richard Simon and Raymond Roe, and * proccs«ion of maida, each ia turn frightened out of her job alter a day with father, lengthen* th* parade of competence. Theresa Wright is an attractive visitor with whom Clarene* Junior falls tn love, and Stewart Chaney's setting reflect* th* measured cadence of the ’Bo’s. Russell Croua* and Howard i Lindsay wrote th* play, which at first glaae* would appear to be impossible. How could a play be mad* of those brief, reminiscent sketches Clannee Day, Jr., wrote? Yet the play eome* to sueh life aa to move it* audiences to ‘aars and laughter. Writing that play waa sheer thaumaturgy, and the fine hand of Mr. Crouse could be seen in the keenly telling dialogue and in the tintype curtain-call* which added much to th* effectiveness of th* illusion which the audience carried out of the theatre.
