"BUN°TY PULLS THE STRINGS,"
"Bunty Pulls the Strings" ,.s one of
those plays which cannot be analysed
or described in appropriate terms. Its
appeal is in simplicity and its whole-
some philosophy, in its refreshing or-
iginality, and to those who have not
seen it, words can convey little of its
true spirit. Its character types are ail
drawn with cameo-li ke distinctness;
each one stands out in bas-relief
against Scottish background. The plot
is probably the least important thing
about the play,., The characters and
the things they say and customs they
eveal provide the deepest interest.
