Ella Wheeler Wilcox’* poet ical play, says an exchange, that tal ented woman will be added to the guild of American playwrights, a fact which has evoked comment of variegated strain In the editorial columns of the current magexlnea. One writer -won ders If Mrs. Wilcox Is about to desert her calling as a prominent essayist for the more lucrative occupation of writ- tng exclusively for the stage. Another congratulates theatergoers upon the opportunity which will be nfforded of listening to lines of rare literary beau ty. Still another declares that the plai vindicates superbly the author's claim to an honorable place In the world of letters. All agree that In her lyrical treatment of the Scriptural love story of Esther, the Jewish maiden, who captivated the heart of the Persian king, Ahasuerus, Mrs. Wilcox has ex celled all farmer efforts, and there Is a marked coinciding In the expression of belief that "Mlspah's” reception will be such as to call for further work from Mr*. Wilcox In the Held of dramatic writing. SOME OF THE GUESTS AT WRIQHTSVILLE BEACH. The following guests are among the recent arrival* at Hotel Tarrymore, Wrightsvllte Beach: Mr*. Harry L.
