JOHN HAWTHORNE AN
OLD AND DRAB STORY
No Ingenuity or NoUelty in
Theatre Guild Play.

The Theatre Guild presented last
night at the Garrick Theatre John
Hawthorne" by David Liebovitz The
new play is in three acts, and its action
is said to pass In "a mountain region"
Only the members of the Theatre Guild
were admitted. and the general public
was thus saved from participation in the
grilling ennui of the proceedings. Doubt
less the performance did valiant service
in making advocates of the blue Sun
day. Such evenings should, in the cause
or humanity be prevented at any cost
In halting and altogether undramatic
idiom the author told the story of the
young farmland who loved his employ
er's wife and knitted the old man to get
her There is no spark of ingenuity or
novelty in the recital of the drab story,
which has been told over and over again
by the immature writer's for the stage,
who seem to turn to it with the same
br eathless sense of discovery that little
Jack Horner experienced when he put
in his thumb and pulled out a plum
The acting was not expert The spec
tators were generally patient and re-
ceived the drama, If not standing as in
memory of a lost cause, at least in
silence This mood was occasionally In
terrupted by the authors comic relief,
which was I'm its reaction on the lis
teners derisive. Outburst OF genuine
merriment, on the other hand, greeted
some of the most serious passages In the
play
"John Hawthorne" wiz in the future
be presented at week Sday matinees.

TO-DAY'S FADS NOT NEW,
SAYS G. K. CHESTERTON
Attributes Health Periis to
Too Much Thinking.

G. X. Chesterton stuck to his last
in the third lecture of his series at the
Times Square Theatre last night and
poked impudently about among the fads
and fancies of the present as being in
no way better than those of the past, il
as good. In Chestertonian theory, II
would appear, no mere twentieth GEN.
tury idea is likely to be more than an
inversion or a repetition of one that
buzzed In the head of man in the
Plestocene era or amid the red plush
and bric-a-brac Of the last century.
1.-THE Perils of Health" which was
the subject Of his lecture, are to the
Chestertonian way of thinking chiefly
the fads and fancies which come from
too much thinking about health. He
recalled an English comic song, in which
IL is related that
Fathers got the sack In the water
works
For smokin' Of his old cherry briar;
Fathers got the sack in the water
works.
Cos g might set the waterworks on
fire"
And no less. In the opinion OF Mr..
Chesterton, ought many pet hygienic
theories of the day. mental cures and
other spiritual fodder be given the sack.
It's morDiu 10 tnllk ABOUT uiSedse.
people say. On, no, says Mr. Chester
ton. it's morbid to think about health.
For instance, you have toothache. and
though you're walking in "A beautiful
place you won't think of anything but
your tooth.
The audience was invited to question
the essayist, with results that were no
more invigorating than such invitations
usually produce. Some one asked II he
thought free people should permit
their liquor to be taken from them. He
preferred that the audience answer. 1t
did with the usual giggles which the
mention OF prohibition before an audi
ence produces.
