Thirteen-ten F Street | INCORPORATED . il 'SEPTEMBER THE USE OF THE THEATER || BY DR, FRANK CRAND Within the ti a serious purpos within the ohureh. The whole matter of morality or £0odness has suffered enormously from its champlons, It has celved & section of life, a phase or part of life, when it is in truth life itself. It s the business of the theater to make life stronger, sweeter, sounder and altogether more worth living, quite as much as it is the business of the evangelist or the philosopher. That this purpose should not be ap- pafent, and that it is fatal to the theater to assume the attitude of preaching, does not alter this fact; indeed, it emphasizes it. The ‘main difference between the theater andy the church is that the play must be so well done, thg hook musg be so well baited and the whole affair must be made so attractive that people will pay money to come and see it, whereas the church has always been suspicious of making its services too appealing ‘to human nature. But behind every play there is some sort of an idea, and it is that idea alone that gives to the performance its final value. For instance, two plays by Booth | Tarkington have appeared this sea-) son, one called “Tweedles” and the other “Magnolla.” Both of these are clever preachments against medieval- ism. In one it is the medievalism of provinclalisin _and narrow family pride, in the other it is the medieval- ism that prostituted the word honor to mean the superiority of brute force. Both of these delusions have held wide and long sway over mortals and still prevail in the lowlands of intel- ligence, The playwright baits his hook with a charming story and scintillating dialogue, and the result Is that we swallow it greedily and never realize that it 1s-a hook at all. The fact is that people like preach- Ing, only it has to be better done than anything else. Human beings are a kind of fish that will not snap at a naked hook. They even like the preaching of evil, as is shown In the great success of ‘the play called “Rain” which preaches cynicism and the bitterness of cheap infidelity with a cleverness which few advocates of good are able to equal. It is the pure and undiluted gospel of the devil and it is mighty well done. It Is refreshing to see that there are artists like Mr. Tarkington who are quite as skiliful in the propaganda of the warm, human and wholesome qualities of life. People want to be decent, they want to be fair and honest, and they even want to be religious, and the public is immensely grateful ta the artists who will show them how interesting and adventurous and »'luring good- uess can. be.
