Every Liberty Loan drive, every Red Cr campaign and the big United War Work campaign, was a magnificent pageant, filled with color, posters and moving people, all united in the de- re to win. Pageants are thus a part of life, “The after war pageant can be a tremendous outlet for all emotions and, without doubt, dangerous emo- tions, which lead to undermining the morale of a people, can be diverted by turning them inte channels of mu- tual understanding. "he pageant has alre seif a potent force in building public spirit. Advantage should be taken of this, so that it can be used to widen the vision of all kinds and all conditions of people—the so called high-brows and low-brows of a com- munity. “A pageant, if correctly worked out, includes every element of a com- munis This fact can be stressed, | and if joy and inspiration for helping the new world can be interpreted | through a pageant, why not use the art as a reconstruction measure and not think of it as a bit of froth or a ng entertainment? | “It is my experience that the com- | mon mass of people Is anxious to see that the world is rebuilt on demo- cratic principles, and with them it is only a question of how to do it. On the other hand, there are a few re- actionaries who say, ‘Let the world revert to the way It was before the war.’ These must be shown that to g0 back to pre-war conditions of so- dy proved it- | up | WASH.- united aim and desire not to have war clety will spell disaster and will mean | that the world has lost what it has sufs | fered so much to win. | “If those of us who ought to have & | vision of a community united for serv [ice meglect or refuse to take advan- | tage of this opportunity, the people themselves, directed, will carve our destinies for us. | “This community drama movement | has come to and women who | have given up everything for war work | can be shown concretely how to apply | the same spirit which inspired that | service to social service and the estab lishment of 1 democracy through pageantry. “My ambition is to foster this move- ment and to present such pageants through the agency of the Y. W. C. A. Groups of girls at Y. W, C. A. indus- trial iters and in towns near mill tary cantonments have been trained in | pageants during the war. Few citles | but have seen ‘Columbia Draws the | Sword,’ ‘We Come, America,’ ‘Colum« bia Calls,’ and numerous other patriot- | ic pageants. Even in France the Y. W, | C. A. has trained French girls to take | part in Allied pageants, and last sum- | mer pageants were staged at base hos- pitals, where the Y. W. C. A. has huts | for nurses, at St. Etienne, Tours and other citles where the association has ‘Foyers des Allices’ for French women industrial workers and Hostess Houses for American war workers and Sigaal Corps girls. “With the way prepared as it has been during war time and the big op- portunity at our hand because of the needs of the people during peace, com- munity drama and pageantry can and should be developed into an imamense motive force.”
