RAILROAD 10 RUN AS THEATER
Lower Floor of Universalist Edifice in Atlanta Is Being Converted
 to Amusement Uses

ATLANTA, March 29.-One of the largest churches in this city, the Univer- salist, is making preparations on a large scale to have its own theater, plays and actors. The movement was originated by the pastor, the Reverend E, Dean Ellenwood. The first play to be pro duced is the famous Servant in the House. The lower floor of the church is being rapidly converted into stage, with footlights, scenery, curtain and other properties. The Reverend Mr. FL lenwood, regarding the project, says:
 ''Contrary to recent public utter anees, the theater has had among all civilizations distinctly religious ori- gin, and is today capable of great moral good In England the first plays were conducted by the church specifically for the purpose of illustrating scriptural teaching and of quickening the popular conscience. They were called morality plays and still survive in such impress sive dramas as 'Everyman.
 "I should not for moment deny that in some instances the present day theatrical productions have harm in them, but it is equally true that pres ent-day religious exercises have harm in them. I should not, for that reason, wish to abolish religion or the church, nor should l wish for that reason to wipe out the theater.
