for popular education than any ten libra
ries be they ever so rich in books.
! could take group OF street boys
gutter snpes, and educate them at the
theatre as they never would and never
will be educated in school. I would send
them first to thrd-class theatres, where
their interest would be aroused where
they would be held spellbound. Then,
after a while, would have them go to
the second-class theatres, where they
would sec something better, and which
they would be held spellbound. Then,
finally, I would give them course at a
first-class theatre
These boys would see men and women
of culture; they would see how they
dressed and how they acted and how
they talked. They would realize that
there was another standard of conduct,
another plane of ethics and of thought
from that in which they lived; they
would learn the value of these other
standards, and they would inevitably en-
deavor to make them their own.
! believe that these boys would be given
ideals and inspirations that no schooling
could ever give them In the same time,
and that would be the highest and best
kind OF education.
The stage itself Is one of the best
schools in the world. a green lad can
learn on the stage more practical knowl-
edge of the world and more savoir-faire,
can become better fitted to go out into
the world and accomplish something, than
he could In the same or longer time in
any school or college.
The theatre Is not only an educational
force; 1t is perhaps the greatest educa-
tional force, when properly directed. Yet
Americans have not yet learned the truth,
and our rich men, who give their money
for everything else, to college and uni
versty, 10 public library and art mu-
scum, to research and investigation, will
not put cent into the endowment of the
theatre. And this in spite of the fact
that the benefits realized from the en-
dowed theatres on the Continent are
plainly to be seen.

The last of the Friday afternoon con-
certs. and by that token tho last but one
of the concerts Of the Philadelphia Or
chestra for this season, was given at
the Academy yesterday afternoon. The
three numbers played were the sixth
symphony, tho "Casse- Nolsettc" suite,
and the '1Sl2" overture of Tschakowsly.
Against such a program the sensitive
ear which could detect flaws and failinEs
was necessarily imperative. Some in
felcites there were which obtruded
themselves. but never to the point of
spelling the grandiose and at times
magnificent spirit of the music. They
were the faults which are not unknown
to patrons of the orchestra, nor. 1t is TO
be hoped, to its conductor, who has
mitigated some, and who, in the long
run. seems destined to avoid them alto
gether.
But il the critic could not he captious
in this event, the orchestra and its con-
duCtor could not hope to make for them
selves new distinctions, because what was
to be heard in the concert was TsChaikOw-
sky and II was good to notice the self
effacement of orchestra and leader, who
achieved their music so we'll. The over
ture with it's childish burlesqung of one
national theme. and its equally childish
eXaggeration of another, justified Itself
only because IL rang and beat superbly
i'll the ears OF It's auditors Attef lne con-
cert was over. To have ended the con-
cert with the "PathetiQue" would have
been more noble, even If II bit unhappy.
The "Nutcracker' suite was played as it
was played last Christmas, for children,
simply, dcliCntely, delightfully."-
SO 1t came about, as was inevitable, that
one returned to the symphony and pom
dered over it again. To some 1t seems
that the "Pathetique" must be cheap be-
cause it is popular. But that the sacra-
mental beauty of its movements should
have woven themselves deeply into the
consciousness of the people Is not an arti-
Gle of condemnation; 1t is a lasting glory.
There is, to be sure, an equally absurd
tendency. to sentimentalize this work, to
consider it the expression of final pes
simism. Mr. Stokowski read his score
with a blessed absence of this emo
tIonal cant. He read 1t even with appre-
citation of the meretricious and the mag
niloquent in ii. with a detached under
standing of its failngs. And the fact
that with this righteous reading it was
still moving and effective is the greater
proof of its valid power. II cannot be
said of many symphonies, as it has been
said of this one, that they have the power
to send their hearers deep into their own
souls and return them better and more
pure.
