PASSION PLAY
GIVEN BEFORE
1900 PUPILS
Gonzaga Hall Filled with
School Children-Com-
pany Proves Capable.

Eighteen hundred school children
witnessed the first Washington per-
formance of the Passian Play in
Gonzaga Hall yesterday afternoon.
Under the title of "on the Slopes
Of Calvary" a company Of talented
local players. drawn from every
Catholic parish in the city gave an
impressive presentation Of the great
tragedy which two thousand years
ago marked the advent Of the
Christian religion. The play was
written by Rev. A. Pslmieri. o. s. A.
Of Philadelphia, and will be presented
on every Sunday during Lent
Lesson of Play.
The play depicts with vivid real
ism the scheming and vindictive
Jewish hierarchy which, enraged at
the simple doctrines OF Jesus. wish
es and plans his death. Throughout
the play fabric there runs the
thread Of the story Azar. a Phar-
isee high in power. who at first
plans the destruction of Christ but
at the dreadful majesty OF the CRU
.cihxion Is converted to a belief in
the Savior.
The secret enmity of Judas, his
persuasion to play the traitor by
the crafty Caiphas. high priest of
the Sanhedrim. and his subsequent
remorse and suicide are an interest
holding phase Of the production. In
contrast to the Oberammergau ver-
sion Of the passion play, the Cru
.cifxion is not represented on the
stage. The presence of the Christ
Is indicated by a ray of light.
A particularly lovely character IS
Esther. the sister of Judas. whose
pleadings with her brother do not
avail to prevent his betrayal OF the
Prince of Peace.
AS Judas. Arthur B. White shows
a great deal OF dramatic power. de-
livering his lengthy part with a
sense of values seldom found in
the amateur. In the role OF caiphas.
Maurice Jarvis gives a vivid pic
ture of the proud, revengeful high
priest willing to 60 all lengths to
gain his ends.
Performances During Lent.
Other especially capable members
of the cast are H. +. Dolan, as
PLATE: Z. p. oBrien. as Azar: Es-
telle Murray. as Rachel. the daugh-
ter OF Azar; Martha Ford, as Lydia.
and Mrs. Z. J. Deeds. as Esther. the
sister of Judas.
The costuming of the play Is par
ticularly praiseworthy. many of the
scenes being reminiscent of the
colored prints seen in old Bibles.
On Sunday. February II. a matt
nee will be given at 3 p. m, for the
children OF the elementary and high
schools. Performances for adults
are scheduled to take place on the
following Sundays in Lent, Febru-
airy "a. March 3. 10. II. and "a. at

and every man in the county will
want to know just the full facts
with reference to the amount of
sales in each district.
Some districts have reported
that they have sold theirfull quota
and gone lover the top" This is
very gratifying to the committee,
and we are sure will be gratifying
to every citizen in the county when
the publication is made. We ask
each and every citizen in Carroll
county to bestir himself between
now and Saturday night, and see
that his district does not only take
the apportionment heretofore pub
lished, but will sell an amount over
and above to make up the 800, 600
over the tirSt publication.
There never was a time when
the patriotism of each man in Car
roll county was challenged as it is
today. There never was a time
when each man ought to be alert
to do his duty toward his country
as today. No self-respecting man,
regardless of race, could consent
to a peace treaty offered by the
kaiser. We have got to win this
war. Our boys are on the battle
line. Some of them have already
made the supreme sacrifice, anC
some of them will yet make it; a:

message to the heart of some boy,

out and put in service for the first
time in many years and its report
was heard for miles around. The
noise was continued until the pow

WILSON REJECTS PLEA
Continued from page 4

man government approaches the
government OF the United States
With proposals Of peace its subma-
rines are engaged in sinking pas
senger ships at sea and not the
ships alone, but the very boats in
which their passengers and crews
seek to make their way in safety;
and in their present enforced with
drawal from Flanders and France
the German armies are pursuing a
course of wanton destruction which
has always been regarded as 10 d.
rect violation Of the rules and prac-
tices Of civilized warfare. Cities
and villages, if not destroyed. are
being stripped of all they contain,
not only, but often Of their very
inhabitants.
The nations associated against
Germany can not be expected to
agree to a cessation Of arms while
acts Of inhumanity, spoilation and
desolation are being continued
which they justly look upon with
horror and with burning hearts.
1T is necessary, also, in order
that there may be no possibility of
misunderstanding that the presi-
dent should very solemnly call the
attention Of the government of
Germany to the language and plain
intent Of one of the terms Of peace
which the German government
has now accepted. It is contained
in the address of the president de-
livered at Mount Vernon on the
Fourth Of July last.
1T is as follows:
The destruction Of every arbi-
trary power anywhere that can
separately, secretly and of its
single choice, disturb the peace Of
the world; or if it can not be pres
entity destroyed, at least its reduc-
ton to virtual impotency,
The power which has hitherto
controlled the German nation is Of
the sort here described. 1t is
within the choice of the German
nation to alter it. The presidents
words just quoted naturally con-
stitute a condition precedent to
peace, if peace is to come by the
action of the German people them
selves. The president feels bound
to say that the whole process Of
peace will, in his Judgment, de-
pedd upon the detiniteness and the
satisfactory character of the guar
antees which en- be- given 10 this
fundamental matter. 1t is indis-
pensable that the governments as
ISOLATED against Germany should
know beyond a preadyenturc with
whom they are dealing.
The president will make a sep
arate reply the royal and imperial
government Of Austria. Hungary.
Accept sir, the renewed assur-
ance of my high consideration.
