1t has been the happy portion OF
ames A. Herne to demonstrate that
the realistic drama need not be neces-
sarily perm Gated with unwhole some
q ess, or that the trail of the serpant
should cross the boards. ashore
Acres" sweet earnest, sympathetic,
tender and eDnobling, is as refreshing
as summer shower after days OF
drought. 1t appeals to the best in
hum anity, and its intrinsic dramatic
worth outranks the problem play.
S implicitly and sincerity are it's sym
bols OF manly self-deuisl and womanly
virtue, and they are incomparably
richer and dearer than the symbols of
darkness and despair. Despite the
pessimistic PHILOSOPHERS of abnormal
thinkers it is pleasant to kuow that
such play as "Shore Acres appeals
to so large a share of humanity, that
interest and delight in it's homely
rural environments does not decrease
with the passing of the years.

THE NEW YORK JOURNAL has in
augurated a movement by means OF
petition fer making the birthday of
Abraham Lincoln national holiday
The movement ought to be welcomed
and endorsed all over the country,
south AS well as north. 1t should be
particularly welcome among the people
at large, for no other American has
ever more truly represented all the
people. Lincoln's birthday is already
a hol' day in several states, 'ncludipp
Connecticut, L LIMOS, Minnesota, New
Jersey, New York, North Dakota,
Pennsylvania and Washington. These
eight states should not have mono-
poly of commenorating his birth. 1t
should be made general and national
by act Of congress.
