THE MODERN APPEAL PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1916 "Masculine Methods" and "MnricOdilc" UNLESS somebody throws thratrintl ilynntnilc in womo vegetable form nt the Adelplil tonight, the last net of Hip farce of NUppresHlni; "Mnrlp-Odile" stem likely to bo the nppcnl of the Nntlonnl ttlliernliin for "masculine mcthoclB." The comparison In u little hard on tlio fair sex. but It l'i In niuiiy wtiyH the most sensible Idea so far put forward. I'orcc, and notlilmr but foice, Is nbout tho only solution for those disputes ocr no-onlled "morality." The moral force of public opinion, tho physical foice of enthusiasts and objectors, nnd finally tho police force. Did Rockefeller Like "The Lion nnd the Mouse"? It Is foolish to deny that "MnrlcOtlllo" may be Wtitlmatcly offensive to cer tain Catholics. Hut New Unhand Puritans can't have enjoyed Mansfield's pro duction of "The Devll'8 Disciple." Russian bureaucrats must have Ihoupht "The Yellow Ticket" n libel, iilonR with every other play based on n Russian theme. Lawyers and storekeepers might piolesl nt a dor.cn such attacks on tho established order and lis RUairllans as "Within the Law." Tho list could be endlessly multiplied. There Isn't a lace, creed or prejudice that the stage doesn't outrage sooner or later. It is simply si sign of tho very fervor of belief anions Irish-Americans, that they are the ones to discover "Playboys" and "Marle-Odllcs." And fervor of belief In these matters Is the thing that counts. The One Thing the Stale Can Censor There Is Just nbout one thing for which censorship--whether censorship by police, boards or courts Is qualified. There is Just about one thing on which tho whole community agrees. There Is Just about one thing which ecry one wants to bo gunrded agnlnHt. It Is filth. Theto are many moralities. There arc oven many varieties of so widespread a morality as the Christianity of church-goers. But there Is only one vulgarity. It Is the censors who put their hands on other matters movie censors, In paitleular who make ludicrous exhibitions of nn honest human Impulse townrd good. If they could have cen sored the morals of the past they would have kept us mental cavemen. Leavening the Race The conservative thought of Athens wanted Knrlpides exiled for his "blas phemy." Since that day the theatre has taken to Itself, time after time, tho pro mulgation of so-called "Immorality," of fresh doctrines nnd now visions. It ! has always played Its part in the leavening of tho mind of the race. And It must continue to do so. Tempering Toleration But that doesn't mean that there must be no protests good "masculine" ones. There have been such In Vcllgious discussions before this, nnd they are healthier than tyrannies of a coerced, false majority. If It Is foolish to deny that "Marlo-Odllc" may bo legitimately offensive to certain Catholics, if it is equally foolish to deny the piny to tho rest of the com munity because of that, It is as undeniably foolish to expect the offended ones to hold their peace If the hurt goes deep enough. "Wheie there me real emotions there, wltl be a real contest and the Issue Is not to bo foreseen. That Is the healthiest way toward n live, truthful and mentally and morally useful theatre. It is the tyranny of toleration tempered by violence and revolt. The Pity of It But the funny and the pitiful part of the "Mntic-Odllo" affair Is that Mr. Knoblauch nnd his play aren't worth tho light. Their "immorality" Is pretty feeble stuff. Six Thousand Scenarios and Ten Thousand Stories Last week tho Amusement Section pi in ted a .statement by Walter Pricliaril Eaton that the trashy nature of the movies was duo to the fact that over tiOOO scenarios were written nnd manufactured Into photoplays each ear. Remarks like that usually bring results. Not in tho way of leform by the producers. Just letters from the "fans" and tho "trade." Uut as we haven't yet received tho avalanche of counter-abuse which usually follows 'any bit of uncompli mentary truth about the pioscnt state of the photoplay art. we feel safe in supposing that there must have been something not quite logical In Mr. Eaton's remark. Perhaps this Is it: If you will take the troublo to llgure out how many short stories are written each year in tho United States nnd printed in our hundred-odd magazines, you are npt to find something around 10,000 for your answer, and a batting aveingo quite as bad In spots. Maybe it's not tho number of movie scenarios or short stories, but the kind of men writing them that counts. On With the Comedy of Censorship! The Courts, the Kaiser and Censorship the week "has linked them In tho most Interesting and amusing act yet staged In tho comedy of cleansing the movies. It Is tragedy or comedy, according to tho way you look at it. Certainly from the censor's point of view there is little to laugh over In Judge Barrett's decision that the opinion of tho Hoard Is not final. Thero Is a super-Board In the courts. Any film producer who doesn't like the arbi trary cuts of tho consor may go to law about it. Thus the decision rests nt last with the same authorities who would protect tho public from corrupt films If there were no State Board of Censorship. But In between lies a slough of despond filled with tho tlmo and money of producers nnd State attorneys and with the precious patience of the public. Is the Kaiser Improper? As for the Kaiser Messrs. Breltlnger and Oberholzer appear to have gone pro-Ally. On inspecting tho German War I'lctures now at the Chestnut, they ordered the elimination of views In tho ninth reel showing the Kaiser and von Hindenburg. As the general appears in other scenes It Is presumable that the Kaiser accounts for the elements thnt are as the law has It "sacrilegious, obscene, Indecent, or Immoral, or tend In the Judgment of the Board to debase or corrupt morals." Furthermore, wo hear from the management of the Chestnut that the Board baa forbidden the use about town of advertising posters showing the faco of the Kaiser. The Board It Is amusing to learn Is authorized by law to sup press any poster containing matter that is "Immoral or Improper." Possibly the events of this week may have a wholesomo effect on national legislators now considering tho question of Federal censorship. K. M. NOW YOU SEE HIM; NOW YOU DON'T COSTUM5 SCfcNERYv 1 AsaKVi'- JtkL v CALL THE POLICE! THOSE DREADFUL RUSSIANS! LETTERS FROM THE PLAYGOERS Readers and Theatre Patrons on Current Topics of Both Hemispheres of the Amuse ment World From "Simoon" to "Pollynnna" To tlm Drnnntli' IMItor The outlook nt the beginning or the theatrical season was nio thing but prom ising. Willi "Paddy Long lgs" nt the Broad for n run nnd "The Rlrth of n Nntlon" at the KorreU for several months, our choice of amusement wns In deed limited. Not so at tho picsent time, when we have light comedy, melodrama, extrnvn gnnra and nn occasional thriller. Surely one should Mud something to satisfy his wnnts. The Little Thcatie company Is ceitaln lv dcscivlng of till the pinlie It Is at pres ent receiving. They ate gaining confi dence In themxelves with each new pio duction anil the splendid new inembeis they me necnslonnlb adding to their casts Is evidence of the sincerity Of their un dertaking. Simoon." one of the phs leccnll.v witnessed at theli little playhouse, was of tho t.pe ue me seldom piMlegcd to enjoy on tho spoken stngc. A clminnl houso In the desert Is nut u very 'iiJo nblo place, to lie sine, but here ic weie Heated to a little tuigedy wherein our spines were allowed to Indulge In a few shivers nnd our ccs ucie treated to a stage setting worthy or a more inden tions thcatie. Not mil) the seeneiy It self, but the costumes and acting weie all th.it could lie deslicd. espcclallv so In the case or Malic Baer. In Miss H.ier the Little Theatre has ,i young thcsphiu who Is a ciedlt to the aggregation. Of nil the roles she has essn.ved thus fai. her efforts In "Simoon" stand out as de cidedly worthy. In direct cnntiast to "Simoon" Is "Polly nnna." on view nt present at the Broad Street Thcatie. A sickening sweet con coction, served to us by the mest efficient coterie of mummers it has been our good luck In witness. Let us hope this is the Inst of such honev buncombe. Arc we to look forunrd to nn all-star cast In "Elsie Pinsmore" or "The Hollo Hooks"? What would have been the lesult If an ordinary comiany had been cnllel In to sprend this glnd message? The 'above, with a row .slight changes, could lie Mttlngly applied to the pioduetlnn of "The Chief," lz: "The Chief was con spicuous for two vcrv good leasons John Diew and Laura Hope Crows." "The Passing Show." the Winter Har den Conipun) lias redeemed Itself for the recent "Mnld In America" seen at tho same theatre recently. Thanks to George Jluurcie, we were treated to something better than "Over your heads, j ou big Swede," etc, handed us by Flor ence .Moore, of "Tho .Maid In America" aggregation. The scenery and costumes may have been made In America, but the date was not mentioned. Indeed, soma of the chorus ladles were obliged to wear the same costumes two and three times during the evening. Not so In "The Passing Show." Al though the company has been playing quite a few months, very few substitutions have been made in the cast and tho scen ery nnd costumes looked fresh and new, ut a io rate. In closing, let me ndvlso nil those who have not been to The Little Theatre, on Do Lancoy at 17th, to take advantage of tho opportunity and gothls Frldn or Saturday to see "(Hcrtoncs," which slnnds out as the choice hit In the collection of the four plays offered. Have you not often remarked, "Mrs J. Is clever, but sho really does not mean all she says, etc." Imagine being present nt a confidential chut between two friends, henilng them exchange compliments, while nt (lie same tlmo their real selves nro giving vent to their Inmost natures. C!o boo for your self. AMATEUR. Philadelphia, February 1, 1010. In Praise of the Little Theatre To tin Pimtuittc i:dltor: Sir It was my pleasure to visit tho Little Theatre last Friday evening and thoroughly enjoy the work the clever piople nro doing theie. I wns surprised to Hud so much enjoyment for the small outlay of .10 cents admission, which surely cannot be enough to definy the expenses of the four little plays put on. I wish to call attention to the last one, called "Loe of One's Neighbors." Aslda from its s.atlie upon human nature, It teaches a deep les.sou upon the subject of giving to c hnrity promiscuously and should bo seen by all poisons who havo been ill tho habit of handing out donations to those not known, instead of giving through nn oiganlzatlon llko the Society for Organ izing Charity, which Is Just now trying to gain 10.000 new members Many dol lars will be turned to the right channel If the message of this little play Is understood. .

Tho nnllct Tlussn hns no moro to do with pin loiophv than it hnH to do tilth sex. Whereby enters tho second point. To speafc of scv and the IliisRlnn Ballet In thu same breath Is ns npt ns to speak of lemonn nnd tho Sahara Desert. Iloth exist, no doubt. Uoth are facts, ns mod ern thinkers nro fond of sayhiR. Hut tney haven't tho sIlRhtcst thlnR to do with one another. ,Tho Husslnn nallet Is not a text book, It Is a combination of the three aits of dnnchiR, music and scene pa ntlnR for the pui pose of produclns a sIiiRle or feet of dramatic icprcscntnllon in cer tain enscs the drama so produced Involves the principles of black maRlc. et no ono has stiKRCSted that tho llusslan Hal ct Is a . ..... .nni. ..nn.. ,1, n urn ni.nl human belief In the prlnclplo of the ndcstiuctl blllty of matter. Ono of tho loveliest or the bnllets Is concerned with a- rural cclc Inntlon in Ilussla. The ballet has not been naked to repeat this number for the benc llt or classes In Itusslan sociology. Ami the two ballets previously mentioned am theie's tho rub. The point at present Is that tho ballet can bo criticised on certain grounds and cannot bo criticised on others. You may say that their dancing In Inferior, al though you piobnbly will not, nnd jou may say that you do not like their choice of music. You may deploro the use of Debussy for tho Faun dance. You mny say that the performance of Schchereznde Is vulgar or that of tho Kami repulsive. (Incidentally, the "truth about the hnrcm scene" In the former ballet Is thnt It Is dull. It nowhere approaches tho revelry and abandonment of tho Gertrude Hoff mnn version, and the sight of lovely Rus sian men nnd women dancing mincingly Is rcnllv neither voluptuous nor orgins tlc.) The thing you cannot say Is that the Russian Hnllet iilll bring up tho iiuestlon of how far nrt can go In Its discussion of tho relations between tho sexes, because the Russian Ballet does not discuss these relations. It has ns much to do with dis cussion as a problem play hns with para bolus or cmphteu9l8. Mko many normal men and women, the Russian Ballot ac cepts life fully. It doesn't havo tho te incrltv to discuss sex nor nny desire to discuss anything. In that It differs vastly, oh, vastly. G. V. S.
