THE VAGABOND PLAYERS, 3 West Center Street, Baltimore, Md. Secretary, Mrs. Nicholas Penniman. Require one-act plays as a rule but do not bar longer ones if they are sufficiently original. The preferred limit in the cast is seven, and the setting must be one possible on a stage 12 x 16. The choice of subject and treatment is limited only by what is acceptable to their audiences. Witty comedies are especially desirable. Report on plays in about six weeks. Cannot pay very large royalties.

C. ALAN WALKER, P. O. Box 570, Fresno, Calif. Sends the following statement: "I am in a position to use a few good one-act plays to run from eighteen to forty minutes each. Either comedy or serious matter will be considered, but the present need is for a one-act comedy for a young lady star. Immediate compensation for an act of this type, with a novel twist and catchy lines, is assured. I will pay on acceptance."

THE YPSILANTI PLAYERS, Ypsilanti, Mich. Director, D. L. Quirk, Jr. Reports: "We wish one-act plays only, lasting from fifteen to thirty minutes. Payment is made on a royalty basis."

Musical Journals

The list of musical journals is virtually complete. Their manuscript needs are almost wholly outside fiction or even the general article. The musician who can condense and make practical what he has learned about his instrument, the music-teacher who can outline a brief method, are among those who may reasonably take their wares to this market.

ETUDE, 1712 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia, Penn. Monthly; per copy, 20c.; per year, $2.00. Editor, James Francis Cooke. Reports: "The needs of the Etude are peculiarly specialized. Imagine an audience of 200,000 and more music lovers, students and teachers, all of them interested in the vital things in the music life, a great majority interested in the practical side of pianoforte playing and anything of a utilitarian kind that will enable them to play better, to play with more facility, and to take more pleasure and profit from practice; others interested in non-hackneyed aspects of musical history of wide appeal; others interested in violin playing, organ playing, singing, and in getting the best methods of teaching the piano. In other words, the Etude is a utilitarian, practical musical educational magazine, looking for 'tell how,' material of the instructive, entertaining and inspirational type. It is not a musical newspaper, and it does not devote any of its space to criticism of musical artists or abstruse musical subjects. It is not looking for dissertative material of the feuilleton or editorial type, but sensible, innately interesting, always readable stuffs of the 'work-a-day' kind, touching the active, progressive work of the world of music. It must be sound, lively and sensible." Reports in twenty days or less. Pays on publication.

MUSIC NEWS, Kimball Hall, McClurg Bldg., Chicago. Weekly; per copy, 15c.; per year, $2.50. Editor, Charles E. Watt. Uses only material prepared by its own correspondents.
