THE TABLEAU AT WHICH AUDIENCES MAKE A "RECORD."

The teaching section of a French scientific society has recommended the slanting instead of the vertical system of hand-writing Jn the schools of that land.

IF yon stopped the first ten men you met on a given corner and asked each of them to tell you just bow long be took to laugh at a joke in the theatre, the chances are good that the answers would range from, four seconds to half an hour. The -last thing' si man knows, when be is laughing at a play, is how much time he gives to each laugh. It is, therefore, the easiest thing in the world for him to be deceived about But any good stage manager of a good farce can tell you to a split second, and some of the statistics of the stage manager of "Fair and Warmer," Avery Hopwood's tumultuous laughmaker, are as amazing as they are exact O ' The average hearty laugh In the theatre lasts nine seconds. That is a goodly roar, too no puny chuckle. Sometimes even quite successful farces go from curtain to curtain with no laugh over nine seconds. It sounds picayune but it Indicates a very fair degree of enjoyment

Many successful comedies have merely chuckles all through those fugitive murmurs that run over an audience like a light wind and are beloved of the actors because they prove that the

audience is warm and pleasantly re-.

sponslve. These chuckles last fire or six seconds. . If you stop and listen to one, the next time you see a comedy, you'll realize probably for the first time in your life what a good laugh can be got into a tiny space of actual time. But the five-second chuckle and the ten-second laugh are by bo means the most astonishing phenomena that the stage manager has for you. ' He can give you figures on what the theatre people know, a little inelegantly but aptly, as "the stomach laugh." It runs anywhere from 18 seconds to get ready for the shock 43 seconds. For the "big laugh" in "Fair and Warmer" runs to 43 seconds, night in and night out, and it is by ten seconds longer than any other laugh the recent farces have created. How do they time the laughs? It is just the time between the end of the line you laugh at, and the moment

when the player begins the next line and you stop laughing to listen! It is timed by the stage manager he. cause he has to arrange a little pantomime for the players, in which they wait gracefully while you are laughing! The moment they speak you stop laughing. You are allowed to laugh as long as you will, then the play begins again. In the prompter's manuscript there ere directions for how long the players must wait That is bow the records of long laughs are kept la the prompter's copy of "Twin Beds," for example, there Is a direction for 83 seconds wait In "It Pays to Advertise" there were three big laughs in straight succession, which, though the audience would have said It had surely laughed half an hour without stop pin?, actually totalled up to 60 seconds! Just one minute's time for three terrific' outbursts! The line In "Fair and Warmer", on which they get their 43-econd uproar is the seemingly Innocent "She said she'd do.lt, and she did." Perhaps you can find out what it means from the picture. -
