thusiastio audience at the conservatory
OF Music last night DR., Edward How
ard Griggs OF New York delivered the
fourth OF his series Of lectures OF
dramas Of protest, taking as his sub
ject Brand" the protest against time
serving SelfishneSs, which is lbsens
stern arraignment of his own Norwe-
gian countrymen for refusing to stand
by Denmark in the conflict with Prus-
sia also in this great drama, he is the
conscious teacher, affirming the hero
ism born OF the unSeliish battle for high
ideals, his fundamental thesis being
that life is worth while only when ded
Gated The greatness of Brand the
man. lies in his complete dedication OF
will to one great cause but his weak
ness is i'll his failing to see that the
will must be guided by love--a weak
ness that leads him to break his wife,
the lovely Agnes, on the wheel, for he
requires OF her that she give all or
nothing, even to the little cap and the
memory of their dead child, and the
mother in relinquishing them reminds
Brand that one who looks upon the
face OF Jehovah cannot live. DR.. Griggs
pointed out that Ibsen's protest is
against cowardicc and weakness and in
comment declared that war has its viz
tues, often bringing out the glorious and
the heroic even in the meanest, while
the crimes of peace are sometimes
worse than those of war, although it is
only when heroism is united with love
that achievement is hoped for. The
next lecture of the series, on December
13, will deal with Gaisworthys famous
iJustice," the protest against the penal
Matchmaking criminals out OF weak
liags.
