Tho j day, however, drew nn immense, midicnco mid nciil them homo thor oughly plenscd. Tho entire com pany, chorus mid nil, was picked from the very bent on llrondwny. Tho coMiiincs were new, fresh mid the hceiiic effects ipiite in Imnnony with tho rest of the production. The btiMucHs mini that had his Ihugh mid Is hack nt his dek this morning will naturally say, "I.ong Hvu Hunky I'nnky," but when we eomo to analyze tho perfonnauco next morning wo nro Inclined to say to ourselves "isn't such vehicles iih Hanky Pnnky n wn-to of hiipcrb talent?" Tnko for iuhtmice, Miss Florence Moore iih n eommedieiie, she is first in her class. Mies Moore would be mi ideal star in un eecentrie cuujcdy, ns it is, the malinger has engaged this talented Indy mid practically said, "hero is the stage, costumes, chorus and or chestra, now go and please the pco plo in your own wny.

Her work may seem cusy to ono who Iiiih not faced tho footlights, but to a veteran who is showing gray uroutid the temples Miss Moore success is simply mar velous.

KD ANDHKAVS. I Uy Helen C. (Inlo Tito Titxk of ftoclal Hygiene" Hy Huvulock Hills. Published by Houghton Mifflin Co. (Library). Ilatcliick Kllis is not n radical re former, who dreams of tho better ment of the race with unpractical llieorirf, but he is one, who has a hiiic, unbiased view of conditions nt they exist in the World today, mid his bonk on social hygiene Miows a deep study of cuiihc mid effect. Ill this book he gives logical ideim re garding tho welfare of the race (hilt could he earned out without inter ference to natural progression ami (volution. "Koeial Hygiene," he says, "un like thu old social reform, Hint at tempted to ileal Willi conditions as they were, without going to the soilrrc, aims nt prevention mid is the inevitable method, by which n cer tain stage, civilization !h couitielled lo continue its coumo nnd to pre serve perhaps to elevate tho race." Most of the ideas in tho first two chapters, regarding the changing Hiatus of women nnd tho woman movement have been covered by El len Keys and other reform writers, hut thu chapter "Tho falling llirlh rnle," contains new nnd advanced ideas, exprcsxed, pcrhnps, for the first time. Some of these ideas nre ralhcY startling nt first acquaintance, for they nre directly opjxjscd to the things that we have been taught to believe and have clung to ns snered. However, when dissected and di gested, they appear to have so much of common sense in them that our old-fashioned beliefs appear as sup erstitions. "Increase and Multiply," he remarks, "was spoken on tho thrcshhold of an empty world." And goes on to state, giving reasons in detail, Hint n high birth-rnto it necessarily followed by n high death rate. He quite disagrees with Theo dore Itooscvclt that largo families nre a blessing to n country. He thinks that fewer nnd better children should bo the rule, and that it would be much moro seiisiiiic tor the state to pay some peoplo for not hnving children, than it would to pension parents of largo families. The mentally defi cient, the cripples mid the paupers, that conic from these large, ponnis ciotts families, are more of a burden nnd expense in the long run thnn the pension, nnd more of a menace to race than race suicide would be. "It can never happen in modern times that the re-adjustment of the condi tions of life can be mndc to keep the mcc with a high birth rate." Another most unusual idea is con tained in his chapter, "Tho Effects of Religion on tho Child." Ho contends that a child should not he taught re ligion until ho has reached the age of ndoleseuce. "A child's mind is at once logicnl and extravagant mat ter of fact and imetic a combina tion of nppoxities, tho inevitable out come of the fact that tho child's mind is working, ns it were, in n vaceuni." Too enrly religious trnin is apt to bo disastrous. A child is not capable of realizing the things in religion that even maturo minds some times fail to grasp mid tho Sunday schools havo many tcnclicrs that are unfit to havo the training of children in these most iniortiint things, for a religious teacher should understand the psychology of a child's miud moro than anyone else In regard to immorality and Jhc Inw, his views aro moxt sensible. "The blind hasto of over realous re formers," ho says, "has not led to progress, but to retrogression." In this discussion, ho points out most specially, the unexpected, miserable attempts at re f onu and their results in the United States. "Tho most ser ious police defects in tho United States is duo to impractical laws mndo hy inexperienced legislators." No distinction is made, hy tho Amer icans, between vico nnd crime. This is a legacy of tho early Puritans. Pe eauso u thing is displeasing or dis gusting to some, is no reason that It should ho regarded nnd punished ns n crime. "Selfishness is not living us ono wishes to live, but in asking othors to live as ono wishes to live." Prohibition is regarded hy this Eng lishman as an example of selfishness. The Kniues lnw of New York is cited nnd tho result of it on prohibition and prostitution is given in detail. This law hns to do with tho Sunday liquor Inw mid hllis shows, giving statistics, how this ono impractical reform lias mndo conditions worso thnn if no law regarding tho Sunday closing law hud hcon mndo nt all. It is tho old argument, that you cannot niako peoplo good by law. Tho study of sexual hygiene, ho holds, if wisely carried out will do moro to benefit morals than legislation, mid tho mothers and teachers of today nro tho ones who need teaching nnd instruction in how to help the com ing generations realize a better con dition of affnirs than wo hnvo today. Ellis does not divorco lovo from eugenics, Kugouies, as regarded by Davenport nnd others, ho observes as u sort of higher cattle breedings nnd bays it would bo itu-eudurablo if not pulpit. unpractical, "l no eugenic lticnl in not nn artificial product, but tho reasoned manifestation of a natural instinct." lie gives nature moro credit than most theorists do, mid would only aid, mid not thwart her in hnr evolution. "Eugenics should not plot ngainst love, hut against the in fluences that ilo violence lo love." Hitvclock Ellis hns no stringent rules to follow or any plans that would suddenly take us nut of the natural trend of Ihn race, nil ho does Is to point tho wny nnd ask the peo plu to hope mid help for better things. "No Utopia was ccr real ized, mid the ideal, ns n rnlrngc, mnst ever elude us, or it would rense to lie nn ideal. Yet all our progress, if progress there be, ran only lio in setting our faces towards the goal to which Utopias and ideals point." "The Inside of tho Cup." Hy Winston Churchill Published by MncMillnn, Price $l.fn1 In "Kichard Carvel," Churchill gavo us a story of CoJoninl America; "The Crisis" was written of Civil War titncH, nnd "A Modem Chroniclo" dealt witli tho ever agitating divorce problem of tho present dny. "Tho Inside of tho Cup" might ho regarded us a book of tho future, for it is 3 cry for a universal religion that will meet witli the needs of the present and coming generations. Not the orthodox religion, that sufficed for tho spiritual satisfaction of our grandparents, not a mystic religion, borrow from the eastern countries, and not a religion based on a few "eienlific fuels, immersed in occult devices, but n practical, christian re ligiou tlint will hold nnd benefit tho doubting generation; one that inter prets the IJiblc in such a way that it will nppcnl to the reason nnd enable iteoido to nssimalato it into their lives. John Hoddor was a young minis ter, desirious of doing good in his vocation, but handicapped by an orthodox training nnd strict orthodox views. He had chnrgc of a mctro- K)litnu church where the congrega tion was a most wealthy and fash ionnblo ene: This congregation ex pected comfortnhle sermons of him, that would bo devoid of any sensa tional and socialistic ideas. He preached along tho strict orthodox lines for a few yenrs and was very popular witli his parishioners, but after n while he experienced n feeling of dissatisfaction with himself and his work. During one of his vaca tions he was attracted to tho slums and there he met with conditions, ex isting in tho very district of his par i.-h, that were horrible and revolting. He learned thnt some of tho wealth iest members of his church, owned the unhealthy tenements and collected ex orbitant rents from tho houses of prostitution. He discovered that dis honest business deals, carried on by ono of his most devout parishioners, wero tho cause of poverty, distress nnd suicide. These church members, who did nothing personally to allay the wun nnd suffering in tho world, who caused crime and did nothing toward its prevention, deluded the public by giving largo sums of money to useless charity, and hid their guilty hearts nndcr tho protecting clonk of religion. "Woo unto you, scribes nnd phnri secs, hypocrites I For yo mako clean tho nutsido of tho cup nnd of the plattor hut within thoy nro full of extortion nnd excess." So thought John Hodder, who now saw tho empti ness of tho orthodox policy that ho had been following. Ho began to put his newly found religion into prnctieo and begnn interpreting tho teaching set forth by Christ, for the present day needs. His fashionable congregation wns disturbed and Miocked; ho was accused of heresy" and hut for tho kindly sympathy of the old bishop, ho would havo been forced to resign. His snlnry was denied him but ho felt that this church needed him moro than nny other and so ho retuninod, bravely trying in tho fnco of nil difficulties, to nwakou tho peoplo to a senso of duty to their find and man. As a guide and sympathetic companion, tho young rector won for his wifo, tho daughter of thovvealthiest man in his congregation. This man, through his ill-gotten wealth had caused great pain and suffering . Ho was tho grealest hypocrito of them all mid sought to hide his knavery be hind n religious mask. When his daughter became, interested in tho now work of John Hqdder's projects, and finally fell in lovo with him, her father disinherited her and left tho church taking with him tho main fi nancial support of that church. This hook is wondorfully well writ ton and shows much study nnd deop thought. Churchill, who seems to havo put much of himself in it, tnkos such a sincere interest in tho possi bility of this broad, sensible and uni versal roligion and hns so clearly mndo his point in religious discus sion, that one becins to wonder if ho wero not contemplating deserting tho field of fiction and r.scending tho THESE TWO YOUNG WOMEN Tell How They Suffered and How Lydia .
