Were I writing its prospectus I could make White washing Julia look the better of the two, or at least the more novel. Mr. Jones takes the prov erb, The pot calls the kettle black, and by means of it saves Julia from her enemies, but he departs from dramatic usage by leaving us certain that the pot told the truth. The fact that Julia is not whi...tewashed and that he lets us see her to a final triumph over worse sinners, who are also less at tractive, than herself makes the play essentially 154 ADVENTURES OF A PLAYGOER plausible and new. Besides that, it is, as the critics say, "well built, " which means that the playwright has graciously supplied every effect with a cause, believing that the human reason in a debased form may still perdure even in a play goer.
Therein also the play is unusual. Contrast it, for instance, with this excellent example of good, every-day dramatic merchandise, where the main point is whether the situations are amusing and not how they came about: A nice woman di vorces a worthless husband and a nice man divorces a worthless wife.
