TALLY poor tneater town." Mr.. Ly-
man paid out of his own pocket thou
sands of dollars to induce figh-priced
attractions to go to an unpromising
lone might stand" In those days such
an actor as Joseph Jefferson could not
be induced to make an engagement ex-
cept on the basis of $500 guarantee.
AS the house receipts could not be
expected to run over $1,000, such an
engagement entailed cash contribu-
ton by Mr.. Lyman Of not less than
$500. But demand for high-priced
plays has been created. The gross re-
ceipts of the house for the past year
were more than double the receipts
during the first three years of it's ex-
istence.
Now that a theater trust controls
most of the large tneaters of the
United States, the building of munic-
ipal theaters is likely to become quite
common and the experience of the pio-
neers in that line is, therefore, of gen.
eral interest.

ANOTHER MUNICIPAL THEATER

Yesterday the Statesman said that
the only municipal theater in America
was one recently dedicated at Red
Wing, Minnesota. We were mistaken.
There is another at Northampton,
Massachusetts, donated to the city by
the late Edward H. R. Lyman. 1t is
said to be one of the model theaters
of America. 1t was built for utility
and comfort and not for the purpose
of seating a maximum number of peo-
pie in minimum amount of space In
the nine years that it has been in ex-
istence the theater has been operated
at a net loss of $4,000.
The deed of gift is an interesting
document. 1t sets forth the earnest
desire of the donor to contribute some
thing to the happiness and we'll being
of mis- fellow citizens. AS the city was
abundantly supplied with libraries and
with school facilities, Mr. Lyman con-
cluded that he could best fulfill his
purpose by supplying to the city a
public playhouse to be administered
for the purpose of providing entertain
ments Of wholesome cultural char
acter. The donor directs that the
Academy" shall be used solely and
exclusively for the delivery of lectures,
the production of concerts and operas
and the representation and delineation
of the drama of the better character
and such other kindred subjects as
shall be approved by the unanimous
vote of the board of management But
said premises, the deed provides. shall
never be used for political meetings,
or rather for the presentation of dis
tinctively party politics.. When the
gift was made these provisions were
severely criticised by the hangers-on
about the city hall. They argued that
the property of the city should be man.
aged directly by the city government
1t seemed un-American and undemo-
cratic not to trust the city council
with the direct management of the CITY
playhouse.
MI. Lyman expressly guaranteed the
property against financial loss in oper
alton for a period of three years. In
that period an effort was made to build

wOMAN'S SIDE OF POLYGAMY

The July Housekeeper contains the
first of an interesting series written by
Marian Bonsall, associate editor of the
magazine, telling of her personal ex-
perience in investigating the woman's
side of the Mormon question at first
hand. Living among the Mormons in
rural Utah, Miss Bonsall soon discov-
cred that polygamy is not only upheld
as a religious principle by the members
of the church, but it is practiced. Dur
ing a conversation with a Mormon girl
Miss Bonsall asked her if frankly and
glad that it was not required Of her
that she be plural wife. The girl an
swered, thoughtfully, no, that she
thought the Mormon women of today
were losing something that their moth
ers and grandmotners enjoyed. Marri-
age to her, she said, would seem a one
sided affair with but one wife. She
could not imagine the happiness Of
childhood, or the full enjoyment of
girlhood and womanhood without the
companionship and love of the children
of the other wife in her family. Her
one concession was that she would
prefer to be the first wife.
This slight preference is one of the
little wedges that NAV holm suSto; lin
the law against polygamy.
