LECTURE ON PASSION
PLAY AT FIRST BAPTIST

One Of the most pleasing and inter-
esting events Of the winter was the
lecture given Thursday evening at the
First Baptist church vestry by Hon.
John S. Maxcy, his subject being the
celebrated Passion Play ah Oberam-
mergau. The lecture was a part Of the
winter program of the Lambda Iota
Club Mr.. Maxcy was introduced with
a few brief remarks by Supt. OF
Schools H. ]. Chase.
The lecturer was fortunate enough to
be present at the last production of
this play given in May, 1910, in the
little Bavarlan village Of Oberamme-
gau, which is world famous for the
production Of the play. Mr.. Maxcy, be-
fore the presentation of the views,
gave & brief outline OF the play and
history Of its production. About 700
years ago the play was first presented
and continued until it became a bur-
lesque when its production ceased.
Three hundred years ago a plague
spread over most Of Germany but did
not reach Oberammergau until brought
in by a man who passed the village
guards in the night Eighty persons
in the little hamlet died Of the plague
and the inhabitants made vow that
if the plague ceased they would pre-
sent the Passion Play every 10 years
and this vow has been faithfully
kept, except during the 30-years war.
The inhabitants Of the village are
either wood carvers or potters and MIR.
Naxcy exhibited a piece Of pottery
made by Anton Lang, the man who

The play is produced 90 times dur
ing the year of its production ana
covers a period of four months. Its
first production in 1910 was on May
Is. It lasted eight hours, starting at
S o'clock and continuing until l.. Be
ginning again at 2 and lasting untii
6. The speaker gave an interesting de-
scription Of the surroundings and seen
cry.
Two or three years before the pro-
duction of the play the voters OF the
village elect a committee who select
the players, who after their selection
live the part of the characters as far
as possible until its production. None
but residents are allowed to participate
and il is the ambition of every BOY
and girl to be chosen at some time
during their life for one of the parts.
NJ married women are allowed to be-
come part of the cast and all cos
TUNES are made by the people them
selves. There are about 700 characters
aud rehearsals are in progress for
full year under the supervision of some
of the participants Of the previous
decade.

Views of The tableaux and scenes OF
the play were thrown upon the screen
and described by the lecturer, VINO

lions and the strict attention PAID by
the large audience that completely I'LL
