4 PROTECTING PROVIDENCE

Representation of the Deity on the
stage in New York state has been
prohibited By a special act of the leg
islature. The law is so broad and
comprehensive in its provisions that
il will interfere with the presentation
of many plays, especially those by
foreign playwrights.
Plays such as la Samaritaine" are
prohibited, and il is doubtful If even
those in which Christ is not actually
seen may be produced. The Passion
Play OF course. becomes impossible
in New York SO long as the present
statute remains on the books.
1t is intimated that even "Parsifaf'
may be barred, for the law reads ANY
living character representing the Del
-ty or known by any appellation which
by the recognized standards of any
particular form of religious worship
or belief, indicated the Deity or is
Deity
There are a lot of people in this
world who think the Almighty is sc
weak and helpless that he needs their
care and protection. Such a bunch
was probably in control Of the New
York legislature, when the aforemen-
toned law was passed.

The Binghamtonian tells the story
OF the manager of the large meat mar
ket in Binghamton, Mass, who in dis
cussing the question of the cost of
living a few days ago summed it up in
this way: 1.-The high cost of living is
caused by the desire of the public to
pay for the cost of high living" He
went on to explain that hundreds of
pounds of beef are thrown out every
month because there was no demand
for the cheape cuts of meat. TT is
because the young women of today do
not know how to prepare meat in
tasty fashion like your mother and
mine could. The young married wom-
an of today has an idea that nothing
is fit to eat unless it costs the most.
She insists on the best and pays the
price for it, and then her husband and
she hold a debate on the terrible prices
of meat while they are enjoying their
steak or roast" The old fashioned
woman could take piece of flank
steak, roll it and stuff it and roast it,
and when it was served not a piece
of it was left. Today the Meat deal
ers have no call for flank steaks and
grind them up in hamburger steaks,
along with other fragments of beef
and pork. Most stews. and meat pies
made from the cheaper cuts are ignor-
ed because it is humiliating to ask for
cheap meat In the presence of other
customers, and because the meat man
may think you are a cheap skate and
because it is easier to cook the more
expensive cuts
