MEDITATIONS UPON I
THE DRAMA !
OR 1
NIHIL EX PROFUNDIS !
Jelly fish are less spineless than
cocktails. An introduction of sun
dry varieties of California Cacti
would only confuse the subject and
render it more abtruse to the lay
reader. How shall we penetrate to
the Soul of the East.? Yet “La
Tosca” continues to play to a full
house and millions who daily fre-
I quent the cinema. Nothing is more
enigmatic than insanity. To be
sure New Zealand, with an idea to
its tabloid configuration, can be de
fended as an inspiring spectacle.
Persian mysticism and dawns of
disallusionment in the parched des
ert are both oif-shoots of the suburb
an trend. With this in view, we
call to mind that ping-ponging and
skating are the daily pastimes of
the idle rich. Yet what is the ad
vantage of quoting from Marcus Au
relius.? Everyone has happy memo
ries of childhood whereas the owner
of the champion Airedale of Buffalo,
New York, is an ardent free-will ad
vocate. Such a course is diametri
cally opposed to free-thinking and
fore-ordination. Men have labored
and died for truth,—and here it is.
summed up in the Yellow Peril.
Nevertheless the blood of the earth
worm is practically colorless,
taining no haemoglobin, unlike that
of man. A careful perusal of the
drama section of any reputable mag
azine will bear out this absence of
chlorophyl.
The romantic ’nineties were the
scene of gaiety and harmless scan
dal, yet according to Erasmus (ep.
“In Praise of Polly”) the world is
a mess of incandescant vapor. Count
less thousands of the intelligentzia
still memorize “Annabel Lee,” yet
Edgar Guest is himself forgotten,
though the cost, it appears, is very
moderate. Irving Rabinowitz, the
Zionist comedian, has more diseases
and he suffers from them oftener.
Yet who could doubt that the Wool-
worth building is higher than the
Cathedral at Chartres. As a matter
of fact after a few days spent in
amination of the New Thought
Pedagogy the Montessori M(iJiad,
and the Gary System such discussion
at once simple and infallible.
Mathematical formulae are work
ed out for every emergency, yet gro-
clerks continue to steal prunes
and ginger snaps, and doctors in
])oor neighborhoods continue to rely
upon the therapeutics taught them in
their Eclectic Medical Colleges in
1884. The Y. M. C. A. team at
Bucyrus, Iowa, is more valuable
than the Elks Hall or the Monu
ment to George Washington at Cov
ington, Ky., yet the value of a Board
of Aldermen increases in inverse
ratio to the nebular void. As for
the Drama it vacillates, touching the
novel on the one side and the epic
on the other.
Moreover the Supreme Court
would as promptly uphold a law pro
hibiting the chewing of gum (achras
sopota) on the grounds that
necessary chewing might tempt
great hordes of morons to chew to
bacco (nieotinimania tobaccum). An
open eye and an attentive ear do
much to make life enjoyable. “Drink
More Bevo Week” is at hand, yet
nothing could do more violence to
my conscious beliefs. On the other
hand, quadrillions of amboid pseu-
dopadiosperes broke out at c
to become recognizable as mesogon-
eus on account of the amazing in
crease in the death rate among
Egyptian camels caused by the tse
tse fly (which would gladly “Walk
a Mile for a Camel.”)
THE NEW BOOKS
Quite a number of new books
have been published recently. Some
of these are: “The Pageant of Civ
ilization,” by F. B. Warren 'vhich
is a story of the romance and ad
venture of the world as told by
stamps; “East of the Sun and West
of the Moon,’ which is a record of
the travels of Theodore and Kermit
Roosevelt, told by themselves, and,
“Trader Horn,” the life and works
of Alfred Aloysius Horn.
Several interesting novels have
appeared. Among these are: “The
Mob,” by Vincenti Blaseo Ibanez;
“The Canary Murder Case,” by S.
S. Van Dine; “Yesterday’s Harv
est,” by Margaret Pedler and
“Death Comes for the Archbishop,”
by Willa Cather.
A book which will surely be very
interesting is “Lee: A Dramatic
Poem,” by Edgar Lee Master:^
which the author lives up to what
has been expected of him after
: of his earlier works.
