Taking for her subject "New Honors for the Stage," Mrs. Merrill discours- ed informatively and inspiringly upon current drama and contemporary dra- matic literature. "Everyone," she said in part, "owes a certain service to every great art and has an obligation to give it a cer- tain amount of study for its intelli- gent understanding." Theater Is Significant The advance of merit in the theater of the last few years which has re- | deemed the drama from its position as a negligible art among the English- speaking people and put it in its pro- per place alongside music, painting, sculpture and other fine arts, has nade the theater significant in the pursuit of cultural gain, she believes. Introducing her remarks Mrs. Mer- rill drew distinction between the thea- trical and the dramatic--the one a matter of stage mechanics, the other a "great art worthy of the finest con- sideration." The dominant quality of the poly- glot mass of Americans is not the dramatic quality of other races, she reminded. By temperament we are, as a nation, opposed to the popular idea of the stage. It is the first "vice" to be renounced by Puritan inheri- tance, and the history of the drama 100-704 Washinston Quality Work --Day " EVAN Phone WILMETTE 145 In Sunday and Day EASTER The thought of Easter creates a beautiful picture in our mind ....chimes ringing... .church steps, the scenes of smartly dressed people. . . .the advent of Spring. . . .the official opening of a season we so eagerly look forward to. And, indeed, this joyous season ushers in so many activities that an abundance of Time is neces- sary to enjoy them. Time is what we sell; and Time is the reason why 3,000 house- wives give the weekly wash to Bill the Washington Laundry Man. "University 5900" will bring him to your home, too. v . Out in English is peculiarly different from that in other languages. It has only recently been looked up to as an art. The theatrical she defined as "the producing of a studied effect by stu- died, if insincere means--a conspicu- ous and noticeable aim at prominence on the part of the actor and distaste- ful to the appreciation of true art. Sincerity, fairness and truth are nec- essary to the real drama--no calculat- ed effect for a purpose. Dramatic art is the power of life itself carried by natural feeling and emotion." She cited an interesting illustration in the variance of the one from the other in that portion of Edna Ferber's "Show Boat," in which Magnolia, grown and observing the sophisticated New York stage, contrasts its artifi- ciality with the genuineness of emo- tion that characterized the river boat playing. Brander Matthews, author of "Rip Van Winkle Goes to the Play"--a volume recording impressions of the country's most scholarly dramatic critic viewing his field after an inter- val away from it,--has been for years, she opinioned, America's leading critic and teacher in the field of the drama. No one, she stated, has done more to raise the level of criticism and to de- velop a better standard among audi- ences. She reviewed other books of the drama and several outstanding New York plays, contrasting their salient characteristics and qualify in illustra- tion of new modes and manners in the theater. She paid enthusiastic tribute to the Goodman Memorial theater, the theater at Yale, to Sidney Howard and other significant high spots in contemporary drama. Yesterday morning, Mrs. Merrill discussed "Keystones," the last of the series which she has delivered under auspices of the Evanston Wells Col- lege club, and which have been among important cultural occasions of the Lenten season.
