GREAT WRITER HAD RIVALS
EIizabethan Age Memorable for Its Drama Without Shakespeare,
 Scholar Says.
CT agaln

The score of busy playwrights who preceded Shakespeare and prepared the ground with experiments in which he was to triumph, have been re- viewed by Prof. Felix Sche1ling, head of the English department of the Uni versity of Pennsylvania.
 Doctor Schelling's lecture was on "Shakespeare's Competitors in the Drama"
 For, had Shakespeare's death been untimely like that of Marlowe," Doc tor Schelling said, i've might ques- tion his primacy. Had Shakespeare never lived, his age would still have been memorable in the drama for the group of playwrights of extraordinary stature-a group in which the lesser names can easily match our Shaws, Barries or Pineros." Doctor Schelling compared the modern problem dramat- fists unfavorably with those of the past.
 Doctor Schelling expressed regret that it has been the habit of the old CT scholarship ito disregard the en- vironment of Shakespeare and to neg lect the lesser luminaries. who sur round him. He said, in part: :
 Shakespeare is not the inventor of Elizabethan drama. He did not find his dramatic London brick and leave 1t marble Shakespeare added no single new form to the variety that already flourished on the stage.
 We have to deal with the group of writers known to every school book as the predecessors of Shakespeare: Lyly, Peele, Greene, Lodge, Kyd, Nash and Marlowe.
 Among the competitors of Shakes peare none was so important as Ben Jonson."

LIFE BETTER AND BROADER
Recent Years Have Seen Vast I'm provement in Conditions Under
 Which We All Live.

The spirit of democracy, states Prof. James Q. Dealey in Case and Comment, implies a kindlier and more sympathetic religion and higher stand ards in moral life. This is shown by the growing humanitarianism of re- ligion, and the rise of numerous agen- cies for the alleviation and banish- ment of human suffering. Criminal codes are becoming humane, cities are vigorously pushing the betterment of vicious conditions in social life, and labor organizations countenanced by the state are working earnestly for the social and economic improvement of their members.
 Intellectual development, freed from the incubus of dogmatis1n, has broadened out into an attempt to un. derstand the whole of life, and through its achievements in science has made modern civilization progress by leaps and bounds. The spiritual and the esthetic side of life have been deep ened by truer insight into ideals of harmony and beauty, derived from a wider experience and knowledge of physical and mental phenomena.
 Life for the average man has be. come a happier, broader, and more generous existence than that endured futility of the old belief that goodness and wisdom are innate only in the privileged classes. .,..

Federal Employment Bureau

President Wilson has recom- mended an extension of the work of the federal employ ment bureau which had a be- ginning in a small way in 1907. The purpose of the bureau is to bring employer and employee together. It is desired that la bor shall be employed as fully as possible and the federal em- ployment bureau undertakes to abolish unemployment as nearly as may be and not revo- lutionize our industrial system.
 But why not break away from tradition and not only hunt up jobs for workingmen, but make jobs for them? We did it on the Panama canal and kept thousands of men at work at good pay. There is an abundance of opportunity to set men at work by the hun dred thousand on projects to reclaim land; develop irriga- tion and water power. What more proper than to utilize the powers of government to furn- ish employment to labor and enrich the nation by the inn provements which labor would gladly make.

THE DRY AMENDMENT IN
 EFFECT

On December 8, Governor Hunt issued his proclamation declaring the recently adopted prohibition amendment to be in effect. This amendment was adopted by the voters of Ari- zona by a majority of practi- cally 12,000 out of a vote much smaller than that cast for state officers. This large majority makes it very plain that the people of Arizona want the Ii quor traffic outlawed in their state.
 Duty of All to Help Enforce The drastic prohibition amend ment having become a law of the land, it is the duty of every loyal Arizonian to do all in his power to see that it is enforced. While it is the official duty of county attorney and sheriff to do all in their power to prevent the violation of law and bring offenders to punishment, it is equally the duty of every citi- zen to uphold these officials in the performance of their duty and to go even further: to in- sist that they shall perform their duty under penalty of re- call.
 Do Not Listen to Personal
 Liberty" Advocates
 There will be some whose personal liberty" has beer abridged by prohibition laws
Williams news., 1916-12-14

or who have a direct interest in the traffic in intoxicating li- quors who will suggest ways to violate the law with safety.
 Such parties should not be listened to, for they are invit- ing others to venture upon the rocks of destruction. All who listen to them and act upon their suggestions will sooner or later feel the weight of law enforcement and suffer merit ed punishment.
 Prohibition Becoming an Eco
 homie Policy
 Prohibition is fast becoming an economic policy of our own as we'll as other lands. Those who, thru whatever motive, op- pose it and try to defeat the enforcement of prohibition laws are flying in the face of manifest destiny. Theirs is a lost cause. The best interests of society demand the suppress sion of the iniquitous traffic in intoxicants and it is bound to be suppressed.

A squint in the Right Direction

The resoltuon which Senator Ham Lewis of Illinois proposes to present in the Senate pro- viding for the seizure and sale of food products and other ne cessities by the government as the means of solving the high cost of living is a squint in the right direction. Our government is the only one on the face of the earth which seems to care so little for the welfare of the people that it fails to make use of it's enormous powers to save them from spoliation by organ ized greed.
 Senator Lewis measures would be justified on the grounds of an emergency, but it would be bad policy to make it a practice. There is better way. The machinery of gov ernment could be used very properly to bring producer and consumer together at a mini mum of cost. The proposed municipal markets are step in this direction.
