What is its meaning? ! Answer—The play is remarkable { for it use of the cathedral as an irm- { presstve and dominating setting for its unfoldings. The play portrays the sin that de- | fies worship, even in this supreme | center, and shows how temptation to | evil may beset the soul in the holiest | environment. {_The production as a. whole has bold- { ness and breadth of vision, It reflects that audscity of imagination for want of which some modern dramas too often v all but the avid flesh I worshipet | If it errs at all it is too lavieh, {und after the first act, which is the best, somewhat overemphasizes the sex situation.

But such terms were never intended | by the churchmen in question as a { denial of God's personality. | Like my correspondent, the schol- | ars he names were in very deep phil- { osophical waters; a. depth largely due to the definition of the word “person- al’” Schools of thought and volumes of learning have been devoted to the explanation of that word, and to the discusston of personalism.
