SCUDDING DEFENDS STAGE
BISHOP OF OREGON FIRM BE
LIEVER IX ITS ART.
Says He Has No Sympathy With
"Christian Faddists' Sweep
ing Denunciations."
The Right Rev. Charles Scaddinff.
Bishop of Oregon, stoutly defended sane
stage performances and the underlying
principles of the stage last night, when
asked about the organization of church
and stage In the Actors' Church Alliance
of America. Bishop Scadding is one of the
chaplains of this alliance and in Chicago
took an active interest in seeking to
preserve Sunday as a day of rest for the
a.-tor and to abolish Sunday perform
ances. The Actors' Church Alliance, of
which Bishop Potter of New York is
provident, and Joseph Jefferson was at
one time vice-president, stands for the
fraternal and hearty recognition of the
stage, hy the church, as a great social
institution, and Is pledged to the aboli
tion of prejudice, and seeks to bridge
the chasm caused by centuries of mis
understanding on both sides. It appoints
clergymen as chaplains to minister to
the needs of members of the dramatic
profession and Issues calendars, to be
posted In the local theaters, giving notices
of services and the personal address of
the chaplain. It Is established in 400
cities and towns of the United States and
Canada, and is affiliated with the Actor's
Church Union of England under the
presidency of the Lord Bishop of
Rochester.
"Yes, I am a hearty supporter of the
Actors' Church Alliance." said Bishop
i?oadcrins, I firmly believe in its principles
and sane methods and have no sympathy
with the sweeping denunciations which
some Christian faddists make against the
stage. The stage has stood for 3000
years because it has a basis In human
nature. It represents an art, and human
society never drops an art, nor ought
It to do so. The theater is a field for
the expression of the highest literature
through a genuine art. Human society
will not drop the stage, but will demand
that It shall rise to Its own standards,
and be as pure as itself.
"That there are evils about the stage
no one questions. Judging from some of
the vile posters one sees there is much
placed upon the "boards which must be
abominable to every right minded, am
bitious actor. Christian people ought to
distinguish between the use and the
abuse of the theater as of everything
else, and while free to patronize good
plays, should avoid as a moral plague
that which panders to one's lowest in
stincts. Thoughtful christian people have
no more use for the actor, who poses in
the psychological problem play, than they
have for. the clergyman, who poses in
some heresy exploded in the third cen
tury. A pure, hearty laugh is a good
thing, and we want more of It In this
strenuous, prosaic life. A good comedy
doeth good like a medicine.
"Here is W. H. Crane, the leading
comedian on the American stage today.
I have had the pleasure of knowing him
personally for some years, and as long
as I have known him, he has been crying
aloud for a good American comedy. It is
a sad reflection on the playwriters of the
day that no one is yet able to present
him with the medium in Which to exercise
his great art; and It is Immensely to his
credit that he falls back on Goldsmith's
beautiful comedy of "She Stoops to Con
quer," rather than take up a line of
work which, might fill his pocket, but
would lower the standard of his art.
Mr. Crane's "Hardcastle" is one of the
finest interpretations of good English,
and of high class comedy, and knowing
the care with which he selects his com
pany I have no doubt that the present
presentation of "She Stoops to Conquer"
will be all that a lover of the writings
of Goldsmith can desire. It is one of
the good signs of the times, when a
leading daily newspaper gives one column
of its editorial space to an article on the
writings of Oliver Goldsmith as The Ore
gonlan did last Sunday, and when Amer
ica's leading comedian is not too new
fangled to produce what some might re
gard as an old fashioned play."

DOUBLE DUTIES TOO HEAVY
Rev. Clarence True Wilson Afraid of
Xervous Breadown,
Rev. Clarence True Wilson, pastor of
Grace Methodist Church, and a prom
inent figure in the Paul Rader investi
gation, is on the eve of an attack of
grip, if not a serious breakdown. Since
Rev. Francis Burgette Short, pastor of
the Taylor-street Methodist Church, left
for the East. Rev. Mr. Wilson has been
carrying a double load, having upon urg
ent request assumed many of Rev. Mr.
Short's duties. These Include the find
ing of a minister to fill the pulpit of
the- Taylor-street church each week, of
having someone present at all the Sunday
school and prayer meetings and of con
ducting all the funeral services of that
church. This is all in addition to the
work of Rev. Mr. Wilson's own church,
the pulpit of which he has filled every
Sunday morning and evening for more
than a year. This burden has told so
heavily that for two months he has been
feeling that he would have to take a
vacation.
The prayer meeting last night was con
ducted by Rev. C. T. McPherson, of Es
tacada. Rev. Mr. Wilson said last night
it might be necessary to find a substitute
next Sunday, but that if he is able to do
so he will preach at the morning service
on "Ye Are the Salt of the Earth." and at
the evening service on "Noah's Ark,"
also answering any questions on religious
matters which may be handed in.
