...tender age and inexperience, "The Brat" is remarkably surefooted and bright. Heralded by no great blare of publicity and sneaking into town under cover of a blizzard came this little comedy, chuck full of laughter and flesh and blood humor. It came as manna in our wilderness of "shows." The play for some moments seems about to trail off into the ordinary ruck of "he be-friends, she loves, they marry" playlets, but the characters meant more to the author than did gentle stage tradition, so she let them work out their salvation. The result was a sincere little play...

The second literary essay, Mr. Littell's "Imagines and Gargoyles," seems the work of a writer who has not grown up no his vocabulary, but who has things to say and may discipline himself into saying them well. Of the two stories, Mr. Dos Passos's "Pot of Tulips" contains skilful description and an inimitable heroin. Mr. Whittlesey's "Best Laid Schemes" is lively...
...become stranded in a rustic town without their money. The second act act is a modernized version of Shake speare's "Merchant of Venice," the burlesque taking its name from the fact that Shylock takes a mortgage on Antonio's fattest calf instead of the conventional pound of flesh. Portia's defense is grounded on the claim that the calf cannot be moved without a permit from the board of health, on account of the prevalence of the foot and mouth disease.
