The San Francisco call., 1908-10-11
Mater" Is New York Success

1t Is reasonable that much interest
should be manifested here in the for
tunes of Percy MacKaye's pretty play
Mater Henry Miller favored San
Francisco with the first view of the
comedy. On the strength of our en-
thusiasn. backed by his fine confidence
in the plays merit. he has produced it
recently in New York with practically
the same company which appeared at
the Van Ness on the occasion Of
Matters premier.
Well, the play has been an enormous
success. Nearly every paper in New
York praised the piece and the players.
The new comedy of love and
laughter is enjoying what promises to
be long and profitable run.
One of the foremost New York critics
said of Mater:
Mr.. MacKaye I'm a speech at the
end of the performance gave thanks
to Henry Miller So do we all. Once
more Mr.. Miller has shown that he re-
spects the best things OF the stage.
Once more he has given us the chance
to listen to dialogue written by an
author of brains, culture and imagina-
tion; to see a play with ideas in it"
Another writer observes:
Mater swept an unusual audience
out of cold reserve into unbounded en-
thusiasm-"
The company appearing in the play
at the Savoy theater New York. is
composed OF the following players:
isabel Irving. Charles Stevenson. Fred
erick Lewis, Hazel MacKaye and John

the wayfarer had seen it.
A group of neWsbcys were gathered

Vised top made of a spool pierced by
sharpened skewer The spool was
cut SO that it presented four square
sides, each marked with letter. The
letters were p T N and A..
The boy with the top spun it, while
the others made wagers, mostly in

naturally fell on one of the square

THE EDUCATED MAN.
Not All Of His Knowledge Comes From
Books and Schools

Not All Of His Knowledge Comes From
Books and Schools.
The most important part Of educa-
ton comes from intercourse with peo-
pie. From this side comes the educa-
ton in love and duty and service The
actions of people stimulate Imitation
and emulation. BY these men grow
In power and skill. From observation
OF the character of people men form
ideals Of character for themselves and
are transformed thereby. Herein lies
the consummate educative power in
Christianity-the transforming power
of the divine man.
According to this new idea, educa-
ton is not merely receiving, but Civ
Ing; not learning alone, but doing. The
educated man is open eyed and open
minded, quick to respond to infu-t
ences from without, learning from all
his experiences and growing in power
as he grows in knowledge. Charles
Kingsley said Of his father that che
possessed every faculty but the facul-
ty Of using his faculties" He was
not an educated man, although he was
a very learned one
Education is an individual matter.
No two men can be educated alike in
manner or degree. They respond to
different influences and grow In differ
emit ways. One becomes educated by
way of schools and colleges and life,t
another by life alone. The measure of
a mans education is the measure OF
his use in the world. George w. Mar

What Was Left.

Mostly Of Chicago" is the way a

acterization seems reasonable. When
he was six years old. he cut off one Of
his toes with scythe. When he was
eight. he shot off two joints Of one Of
his fingers. He ran away from home
when he was fourteen. and the frost Of
q winter night took off three more toes
and the tip Of his nose. At twenty five
he lost his entire right foot. A drunken

dixie, Dakota corn shelter took his
left forearm. and since then he has lost
three fingers, joint from another fin
