The Bishop of Melbourne writes
long letter to the Melbourne pa
pers defending theatrical amuse-
ments. He says: SIT is sometimes
asked, for instance, whether st.
Paul would have shown himself at
theatre. No, certainly not at
heather theatres, where the per-
formances were usually connected
with heather worship. But if the
question be whether he would have
attended a well-conducted theatre
in Christian land, to witness a
high toned performance, then it
might as well be asked whether st.
Paul would have attended a cricket
match, chess tournament, or a
spelling bee. In his circumstances
it Is very unlikely that he would;
but it is equally certain that he
would have called none of them
unlawful. Amusement is necessa-
ry for young people, and it would
be equally unreasonable to forbid
our boys to play at cricket and to
require grave divines either to join
their sport or condemn it," The
Bishop desires "to do something to
make the drama what it should
be-the handmade of religion and
morality"
