The IdnI breaker.

Through the subtle symbolism Of
Charles Ram Kennedy's plays ideas
gain the warmth of human appeal
or the responsiveness Of human ugli-
ness. while mems characters, by re-
vealing themselves, become telling
arguments or scathing scarcasms.
In his new play, THE Idol Breaker"
recently published by Harper
Brothers. Mr.. Kennedy makes what
is in effect an impassioned plea for
liberty of the right sort, in dra-
matte form that gives imaginative
pleasure while it drives home evident
truths with hammer-strokes of sa-
tire.
Adam, the blacksmith, is the pro-
tagonist of the play. a man of the
people. 1.-THE slave who makes things.
symbolic of the proletarian struggle
toward a real democracy. He girds
at the narrowness, the untruthfulness,
the Sunday school platitudes of the
people of Little Boswell-a village
that exists eVerywhere-and they IN
turn unite to suppress him. Promi-
nent among them are a lawyer, an
editor, and jeremiah Jones, who
combines the functions of Sunday
school uperintendent first trombone
of the McDable Music Club, and IRON
monger. These three in the SIN thy
compass Adam about like Jobs COM
forters, clamoring at him concerning
the error of his way.
But he has beside him Naomi, the
woman of the highways, who has
come to him that morning, and look
ing into her eyes he finds assurance
and understanding of himself. She,
the spirit of true liberty, makes him
feel more clearly the kinship of h S
soul with hers, awakening dormant
memories, while the Lite Boswellites
jeer at him.
His wife, also present in the smithy,
accurately reflects the attitude of the
commonplace woman, too feminine
not to feel with her husband, yet too
conservative for innovation. Through
a series of grotesquely comic situa-
tions, the issue that lies between
Adam and the pseudo-respectabil
of Little Boswell becomes continually
clearer and more tense. At last he
triumphs over his contemners, but he
has still to reckon with Jake the
Wastrel, the sinister figure who
haunts the footsteps of Naomi and
creeps into mems hearts as the free
dom that destroys.
In this play is much of that exqui-
site irony so strongly fe.t in The
Servant in the House." especially in
the portrayal of the bishop of Lanca-
shire; much also of the poetic vision
which is expressed in that remarkable
drama. Mr.. Kennedy still knows how
to thrill his audiences and readers by
the clash of ideals in the form OF
clashing human spirits. In reading
OF seeing Mr.. Kennedy's plays one is
likely to pass through three success
siVe stase First, mere human IN
terest; second, perception of the
sharply edged double intention; and
finally n conviction of the realty that
les throbing at the heart of the thing.

Dancing Not u Fad.

1.-The present vogue of dancing is
sometimes characterized as rad,
says Troy Kinney in The Dance, lts
Place i'm Art and Life (Stokes). "As
a matter of fact, ii is no more than
the resumption of normal exercise.
1t is not extraordinary that people
should wish to dance every day. IL
was extraordinary that there should
have been q period of sixty years in
which people did not wish to dance
every day. Occidental history recalls
few periods when the dance, natural
as speech and eXalting as music, UNI
derwent such neglect as it suffered
during the latter half of the nine
tenth century. Self-eXpression was
in bad taste A phantasm of misin
terpreted responsibility standardized
conduct. The resulting caution of
movement steriliZed the dance.
"Then came the Russian ballet 1t
showed that dancing more completely
perhaps than any other action within
mortal scope, is q means of expression
of every emotion humanity may feel
1t showed, too, how inconceivably
beautiful may be the human body
when it is made to conform to the
laws of beauty-which are identical
with the laws of choreography. And
so perfect was the artistry of these
demi- gods from out of the North that
difficulty became a forgotten word
Every man thought that he felt within
himself at least portion of the es-
sence that animated Volinine, Mord-
kin NiJinski; every woman knew she
had latent some of the magic of Paw
Iowa, Lopoukowa, or Karsavina. And

"on the Left Of a Throne.''

Mrs. Evan Nepean's volume, "On
the Left of a Throne" may claim to
deal for the first time with the per-
sonal side of the character of the
Duke of Monmouth. "He has been
treated hitherto" says the author in
her preface, "as nothing better than
a pawn in the game of history, with
out a personality of his own" And in
this volume we have a revelation of
how such a personality came to be
regarded by the people of his time
with passionate and-in the case of
the peasantry in the West-deathless
devotion.

TRAVERS'S CHANCES
WELL THOUGHT OF.
MOntclair Golfer Writes That
Betting Is 9 to | Against
Him.

sa That the British golfers in general
have a wholesome regard for the
pfoWess of Jerome ID. TraVers Is
further evidenced in q few remarks
made by the American champion in
a1etter to a friend in this city. The
golf championship has developed a
certain amount of speculation. This
is already keen on the other side,
doubtless because of the exceptional
array of American talent on hand.
Travers writes that the betting
against him in the coming tourna-
1ilent at Sandwich is to l. That was
before he won the medal in compe-
tition there a short time since, so the
chances are that by this time there
has been a shrinkage in these odds.
Golfers in this country say that the
fact that TraVers Is a to ] choice
makes him strong favorite for the
a4Drors.
Displaying all that ability which
won for him the chief cup in the an
nual spring tournament of the Coun-
try Club, of Atlantic City, last year,
Maurice e. Risley, of the home club
Fairly smothered his opponents in
The first and second rounds of match
play in the initial tournament OF the

opponent in the person of II. B. New
ton. of Atlantic City, to the tune Of

into camp J. II. Clapp, of Chevy
Chase by .tnd 6.
-n.s!ey Is he favorite for the final
round this afternoon, now that he
has no longer a fear that he might
fail to find his game.

WHERE WILL FARMERS
OBTAIN SEED WHEAT?
NOT ENOUGH IN THE COUN.
TY FOR DEMAND
NONE AVAILABLE.
But Few Planters Have More
Wheat Than Needed for Con-
Sumption and Planting.

where will Anderson county far
mers get seed wheat enough to SOW"
was the question asked last night by
one we'll known business man while
n discussion was going on as to the
amount OF wheat 10 be planted this
season by local planters. The speaker
went on to say that practically the
entire available supply of seed wheat
In Anderson county has already been
exhausted and Anderson planters
haye not yet begun to SOW wheat.
All told, not more than 10 or IL An
derson county planters have ever SOW
ed wheat on an extensive scale and
each year they have been planting the
same wheat. OF the few In the county
now sowing wheat to any considerable
extent they have been using tho
same seed used by their grandfathers
for the last so or 60 years ana these
men had but little seed wheat to offer
for sale.
Throughout the country the same
cry Is being heard. "Seed wheat is
scarce and we cannot supply the de-
mand." Anderson county's supply OF
seed wheat seems to have been sold
out and when the planters prepare
to SOW about 20 tipes as much wheat
in this county as was ever produced
here before. they will be up against
the proposition of finding seed enough
to plant.
To slio's that the situation is se-
riOiis. Furman Smith, the wholesale
asdsmen; when seen yesterday and
asked by q reporter for The Intelli-
gencer as to the truth about wheat
being scarce, exhibited letters where
he returned checks amounting to more
than $400 during the last week to
planters in the lower part of the State.
All OF these planters desired seed
wheat for immediate use anG the An
derson seed house could not fill their
orders. - i,5s1ss s
It is said that this condition ia by
no means confined to South Carolina
and that other states are In the same
