In Mr.. David Belasco's interesting ar
ticle in "The Saturday Evening POST
of last week he writes: "An honest
managers desire to enlist the sym-
pathy and to benefit by the assistance
of intellectual contemporaries is not q
venal or merely selfish one; it is a
judicious and commendable desire to
profit by the learning and often the
vast abilities of the best minds of his
time in order to better his service to
the public" Mr.. Belasco then offers a
list Of the men of learning and vast
abilities, the best minds of his time
whose criticism and approval he has
sought not always in vain. His list
is as follows:
civilian Winter, George William
Curtis, Charles A. Dana, Clarke Davis,
John D. Stockton, w. W. Clapp, Benja-
min E. Wolff, Henry A. Clapp, Lau-
renee Hutton, Franklin Fyles, Stephen
Fiske, Henry Watterson, George P.
Goodale, John Ranken Towse, Sir Ed
ward Russell, Walter Herries Pollock,
A. B. Walkley, II. T. Parker, Philip
Hale, Louis V. De Foe, Charles Darn
ton. Alexander Woollcott, Alan Dale
Amy Leslie, Lawrence Reamer, Burns
Mantle and James S. Metcalfe."
This is, of course, an excellent list
We have no objection to any Of the
men included not even those who are
still alive. Sergeant Woollcott, to be
sure, sometimes brings an excessive
amount of boisterousness, which
passes for camaraderie at Hobart. to q
first night performance. Mr. De Foe
is sometimes late and Mr.. Mantle is
occasionally under the necessity of
leaving early to catch that good train
for Forest Hills. But it is good list.
And yet it occurs to US that Mr.. Be-
lasco in his haste has omitted ono or
two whose cooperation would be use
full even in such a distinguished body.
There is, for instance, Mr.. George Jean
Nathan, who to our knowledge has
often commented at length and with
great fervor on some of Mr.. Belasco's
productions. Then there is Mr. Clay
ton Hamilton, who climbed to the
Acropolis in the moonlight in order to
fit himself to pass upon the merits of
Dark Rosaleen." Mr.. John Corbin,
who discovered the feet in "The Jest"
after practically every other critic had
hurdled them, is also entitled to recoe-
milton.
~ we ever made our own list Of
those who have helped us most in the
business Of writing (next to the Bible
and Shakespeare) we should not think
of failing to mention Mr. Stephen
Rathbun, Of "The Evening Sum: Mr..
Rennold Wolf, OF 1.-THE Morning Tele-
graph; Mr.. Louis Sherwin, late of
"The Globe; Mr.. Kelley Allen, OF
"Women's Wear; Mr. Jack McManus,
of "rhe American; Mr.. Robert Welsh,
of "rhe Evening Telegram; Mr.. Al
Head, of "The Herald" and Mr.. Frank
Pope. Of "The Journal Of Commerce."
And before Mr.. Belssco makes out
another list we want to put, ourselves
on record as stating that there Is more

Across the horizon of Easter pass
the phnntasmagorical figure Of hate
and carnal ambition, and the myriad
crimes against humanity that lie at
the door Of the nations Of spoilers.
Yet the hope Of humanity is un.
dimmed. The hope that triumph over
event and through event reaches to
the eternities is the Easter hope Of
glory, and Of goodness. and Of grace.
Jesus, the FIRST fruits Of them that
slept, has risen, and points to the
eternal hope Of humanity and the pro
visions Of the grace Of God that bring
redemption both to the Individual and
to the race. The open tomb is the 81

wear theirs few weeks before OF
after that day little know Of the risk
they run Of having bad luck the rest
Of the year. The day used to be
known as "Joy Sunday" and there
was an old superstition that unless one
wore something new on that dny bad
luck would follow throughout the
year. Another belief was that II The
wind blew from the east on Easter
morning. and II you drew some fresh
water and bathed your face and hands

east wind to harm you throughout the
year.

Mournino Friday,

II was not always called Good FRI
day. Years ago In Germany It was
frequently referred to as Mourning
Friday. Our early ancestors In Eng.
lnnd did not call II Good Friday, either,
but Long Friday. Such is the term
In an ancient ecclesiastical law about
1000 years old. The Danes used the
same name, Long. instead Of Good
Friday.
The reason for using the word
''long" was doubtless found In ths
seeming endless and severe fast prac-
ticed thnt day. At one time the Span.
iaris emphasized the solemnity Of
Good Friday by closing all the
churches.
Nowhere else that have happened
to be on Good Friday was the day
so solemnly observed as in Rome. The

Easter Morning
Breakfast Made a
Time Of Real Joy

TT WAS my good fortune one
time to be visiting in a family
L where Easter was celebrated in
a very pretty fashion. When we came
down to the breakfast table in the
morning we found 1t looking so beau
tiful 1t seemed pity to disturb Its
beauty by the prosaic act Of eating.
The dining room was particularly
sunny, attractive room to start with.

was set with Its usual gay blue and

tal float. For the benefit of the chill
dren little yellow ducks and chickens
were perched along its edge and at
each plate we found one Of the flowers
for our personal adornment.
Everything we had for breakfast
that morning seemed to glow with
yellow; the grapefruit had brighter
tinge than usual, the rolls and toast
a delicious golden brown; and when
our eggs were served each one had
been baked In little yellow ramekin
The whites had been beaten until they
puffed up above the cup and tinged a
delicate yellow brown In the oven. and
nestled in the top of each fluff was
the yellow yOlk of the egg. AT the
plate of each child was an attractive
yellow basket with little nest of va
riegated colored tissue paper-for had
not the bunnies been busy during the
night leaving eggs around the house
for the children to gather in the morn

their breakfast so eager were they tG

VICTORY OF HOPE
Casters Teaching Is the Dis.
peIling Of Gloom From the
Hearts of Mankind.

TOPE that springs eternal in the
humnn breast does not de-
pend upon the latent fatalism
in humanity for Its justifica-
don-such a hope holds no key to
event. And without this key hope Is
hut In reality = hopeless expectancy.
Events, governed by that outstanding
law Of reprobation by which degen-
eracy and decay follow all things In

bring mankind back TO the stage of
savagery and leave to him naught but

Quered. regulated. subordInated, con-
trolled. even glorifed. Hope springs
exultant In the human breast, because
there Ii something that can certify to

human breast, becoming In many
cases a luminous ray that shines up-
on the entire pathway Of life. 1t was
hitting that when the women came to
the tomb early upon the first Easter
morning they should find that an an
