1t sounds ambitious, but cities With
fewer resources than the capital have
added fame and material prosperity
by similar efforts. There is, of course,
the wonderful Passion Play. which is
gone forever seemingly SO far as the
outside crowding to OberammerEau, in
Bavaria. as in years before the war,
but there are annual pageants in
towns in the English midlands, where
a series of tableaux, the same year
after year. attract thousands of vis-
itors. as. for instance. the story of
Godiva. presented in pageant every
summer in Coventry. One tableau
does not exhaust the historical or
romantic chapters in the building up
of the different American common
wealths. In that particular alone tab

burden of appearing all through the
ten days, but this consideration is
easily arranged. There were many
who would have willingly appeared
in the series for whom no room could
be gotten. And each of the many
worthy charities which claim atten-
ton every winter could take over
an evening and its financial problem.
1t sounds very practical to hear it's
projectors talk, and certainly it would
be a feature of the winter which
would engage attention from many
viewpoints and which would draw
support from even more. Then it
would be another step toward CEN
tralizing and making permanent
feature of life during the social sea-
son at the capital. Mrs. Dimock for
one would welcome an organization
of this kind heartily and then if the
hall is soon completed. what an ideal
home for historic pageantry would be
the Victory Memorial.
