To take revenge on liie--to make others pay for tHe misfortunes and accidents that, have befallen oneself." . All jn; all, Madame IJndset has revealed her ability 'as she fias &one so often before, to treat human characters in terms: of their own particular age and background. The-Wild Orchid is the first of two books, its se quel, The Burning Bush, is now in preparation. These two titles have a significance all their own ; the former symbolizes earthly love, the latter, heavenly love. Let us hope that her, new novel will be released shortly, in or der that we' may follow the de lightful story of Paul Selmery Calendar THE, : DAILY 'Potter's Field' Presents Intimate Portrayal Of Southern Negro Life Paul Green's Latest Play, Which Will Soon Be Produced; Contains Numerous Type Cliaracterizations, Including Those of a "Sheik," a Bene, and In his latest - play, Potter's Field, Paul Green has delicate ly woven a symbolic story of the negro race. As in The House of Connelly, which has just finished a successful run in New York under the auspices of the The atre Guild, he has again chosen a story with a southern setting and southern atmosphere. - , The House of Connelly was an allegorical story . dealing with the fall of the old southern aris tocracy before the advance of the new south. In P otter s Field he also deals with the south but in a somewhat different manner. Here we see the other side of the curtain, the life of the negro. It is the story of a village known as "Potter's Field" which grew into a negro settlement after the close of the Civil War. When the negroes were freed from slavery many of them went to this old field, lying some where in the vicinity of Durham, which was "filled with briars, stones 'and garbage. There they built themselves a colony where they might live their own lives in their own. way. It is the life of this commun ity, symbolic of the southern ne gro that Green has endeavored to. portray. The people of the village came from all parts of the state and many from other states, herding . together, in that squalioT hog-dump. He has made an intensely human picture of their life . that .cannot but lend itself to sympathetic under standing in their everyday life. In the play we see the characters in their everyday life, gather ing at old Quiviene's boarding house ,with the coming of dusk to loaf and talk.

S FritcKard-Llbyd's Drag Store' Manning Pritchard Pftuiip Lloyd 1 Alfred t'JilHams C6mi Ihfc; - Chapel Hill TAH HEEL Several "City Slickers.' the loving sentimentality of Mil ly Wilson and Tom Sterling, has an irresistible charm. In fact the whole play might be said to be filled with typical characterizations, with the audi ence left to infer its conclusions. In Sport Womack, the mulatto, and his new car we easily recog nize the sheik, flashily and show ily dressed ; and in the mulatto Belle, his feminine counterpart. To round it off there is the "city slicker" in the form of .John Henry, the blind Dode Wilson, and the somewhat cynical Seeny. It is their life that Green so vividly shows us, lie ,with its love affairs, its laughs and its tragedies. In the prologue he paints a beautiful miniature. "In the evenings you will, find them laughing, singing, and sitting before. the .shacks with their girls, or walking out, if the weather is fine, towards the hilly fields that lie west of the children shoot marbles, or roll battered automobile tires along the crooked paths and roads." The play abounds in the quaint and melodious folk-songs of the negro. . In the road scene, especially, we hear over - and over again the digging songs, so expressive of pent up emotions. In the laborious task of compil ing and scoring these songs Green was aided immensely by Lamar Stringneld, of the lni versity institute" of folic music. The, play has been sold to .Wal ker Harp, New York producer, arid plans are under way to stage it' sometime in January. It is in teresting to note that, although the play is a full length drama, it is in one act and is to be play ed without intermission.
