lecture was delivered by Mrs. Gertrude Andrews.
member of the Executive Committee Of the Pro-
fessional Woman's League. After tracing the
origin of tragedy and comedy from historic times
as working from the religious emotions Of men, the
lecturer said:
The drama has been crude, coarse. vulgar. and so

man. But man Is becoming more and more self
conscious and so is the drama OF to-day more
signs that the drama cannot die, but is evolving
INTO better being, IS seen IN the fact that snake
dramas of the gods of Olympus were shelved when
men became practical, and in the same way Is
Shakespeare being shelved to-day. We want pict-
ures on our stage OF our own HE, our own griels
and weaknesses and triumphs. The drama OF TO-
day supplies such pictures
The speaker who followed was Mrs. George z.
Spencer. She attacked the main arguments Of the
lecturer by saying:
Shakespeare is the master of English drama.

man suffers and loves and laughs and dies. long
the English language is spoken Shakespeare

period. II plain, practical woman but | do not
think that I am for that beyond reading
and witnessing the plays of Shakespeare.
