HOW AMERICA HAS PUT IDEALISM
INTO ITS NATIVE FUN-MAKING
Comedian and Playwright of the True Yankee School
Analyses the Most Distinctly American
of American Arts
By WILLIAM HODGE

THERE is a distinctive brand of Amer
i lean humor. and it can be recognized
by one peculiar feature American hu-
NOR, more than the humor of any other
nation, is a linking of earthly shrewc-
ness and worldly wisdom with high ideal
ism. This may not be always apparent
to those who see only the ineongruous
and hdcrous aspects Of this humor.
Nevertheless. believe this element Of
truth behind laughter exists In all genu-
inc American humor from Benjamin
Franklin, Jonathan Trumbull and WASH
inEton Irving down to DR.. Oliver Wendell
Holmes. Bret Harte and Mark Twain.
will also include George AIDE and Mr..
Dooley. Booth Harrington exemplifed
ii in my now-famous character of Daniel
Voorhees, Pike in The Man from Home"
II is the essential feature Of Jim Whit
man in THE Road to Happiness" In
fact, Whitman always makes me think
of the youthfui Abraham Lincoln in his
mingled hun1or and honesty.
1t was a great American hunorist,
Josh Billinss-a man that tried to sim
plify American spelling before Andrew
Carnegie-who said: 'Humor must be
based on TRUTH 1t is because a thing Is
ludicrous and at the same time true to
nature that people laugh at it, And
this cheerful humorist declared, in his
own peculiar language: "Anatomikally
konsidered. laffing IL the sensation oV
pheeling good all over, and showing 1t
principally in one spot. Morally konsid-
cred, it IL the next best thing tew the
Ten Commandments" Some OF HIS
(IIenry W. Shaw's) own sayings are fine
examples of mis- definition, as when he
remarks ''Flattery is like kolone water.
tew be smelt ov, not swallowed" or
There is a crate deal ov what is called
virtew that IS nothing more than vice
tired out"
Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1915-10-23

From the days of Benjamin Franklin
with his Poor Richards Almanac"
begun in l733 down to my present foot
light character of Jim Whitman. the
American laugh-maker who puts his
wisdom in the form Of wit seems to ex-
hibit a knack for making proverbs. Lin
coin had this faculty as much as Frank
lin. Lncoln's great rival. Douglas, de-
clared of Lincoln: ABE is full Of droll,
dry Jokes, but he is as honest as he is
shrewd" It is this honesty and shrewd-
ness in American humOr that imparts its
peculiar national tang Whitmans droll
sayings are as humanity inspiring as the
old maxims of Mrs. Wigs of the Cab
bage Patch" That old lady of ALICE
Hogan Rice's creation represented. in
deed, the very spirit of American optim-
ism-a spirit which Daniel Pike also
represented in a lesser and Jim Whitman
now represents in a greater degree.
Cheerfulness is the keynote of the best
American humor as well as its essential
truthfulness Washington Irving told
about the ne'er-do-well of the Catskills,
Rip Van Wrinkle, and also of lchabod
Crane in this spirit of kindly cheerfuness.
thus making both- of them delightful
figures Franklin thus wrote his famous
Autobiography"
Artemus Ward is a striking example OF
the typical American character as exem-
plified in odd dialect or queerly spelt
humor and with Josh Billings and Petro-
Ieum V. Nasty David Locke he consti-

the movies" he writes. Il don't want TO

something not In my make-up) prevents
me from enjoying that which gives 1
oont know how many millions OF my
Fellow countrymen infinite satisfaction.
Stil am I bored by the movies.
Alas. there Is something the matter
