New York. Everything new or
helpful these days in solving our
problems has the word community"
tackled on. We have Community Serv-
Ice, Community Theater, Community
Centers, and what not. But now In
New York we are to have a Commun-
lily Church. This edifice is to be con-
structed at 34th street and Park ave-
nue., under the pastorage Of the Rev.
John Haynes Holmes, the Rev. Dee
Brown, and Rev. John Herman Ran
dali. Its purpose, aside from its re-
ligious aspect, will be one of health
full dramatic entertainment" This
idea Is not as revolutionary as 1t
would seem because those with a
mind for history will recall tina THE
early church was the scene, in fact
the center, Of all dramatic entertain
ment. The auditorium Of the church
is to seat 1850 persons and will be
decorated after the manner Of the
alter rather than church, with murals
exemplifying Freedom, Truth, Democ-
racy an dthe coming Golden Age. In
addition to the church and theatrical
equipment the church is to have all
the appurtenances which go to make
a community center.

Realism may be all right on our
present-day stage, but producers had
better take into account Its effect on
the actors. After ALL you and | are in
the audience with the footlights be-
tween, or blinking at the cinema OPP
Grafton OH the screen. The risk falls
to the actor himself. In recent mov-
ing picture. utilizing half dozen
bona fide Hindoos in thrilling Brah-
ma Temple scene, 1t was thought "su-
pers" would do as we'll as the real
thing. All went well until out of the
darkness of the scene the figure of a
Brahma idol appeared, blinking his
eyes in foreboding manner. With
shrieks Of terror the would-be Hin
docs about-faced and fled, and it was
necessary to postpone the shooting of
the scene until the next night when
some real "broken-in" Brahma actors
were produced, who feared not.

and In effect II means that these coun-
tries pledge themselves to respect the
sovereignty, independence, an dterri-
torlal rights Of China, and to give

More than that the resolution also

NOW, let me ten you this, as
think have said before. There are
lots OF knockers, writer's who are
looking only on the dark side OF this
conference. They predict only failure
for the meeting. They are, as the New
York Times says, Prophets Of failuer'.
Now it so happens that the New York
Times has never cared 80 much for
President Harding nor his party; In
fact, 1t supported his enemies and the
enemies Of the party, and still does.
But 1t also knows that there has never
been such meeting before. 1t has
taken up the fight against the proph-
cts Of failure and, among other things,
states this:
In their (the pessimistic writcr's)
dismal forbodings they overlook the
central facts | nthe project for naval
disarmament. One is that the scheme
as presented by Mr.. Hughes has MAR
VELOUSLY WELL STOOD THE
FIRE of CRITICISM.
THAT is true of tall. kiddies. The
United States plan has been accepted
complete, and we can insist upon its
main features, and everything else
will follow naturally. AS a matter OF
fact, the delegates realize that there
must be no failure. They would not
dare return home to their separate
countries II they failed.

Do you remember some years ago
the famous horse dinner which one of
the smart set gave, and called down
universal censure for wanton extrava-
gance? 1t was not quite as bad as the
monkey dinner which filled the Sun
day supplements for long time, but
the idea remains with us yet. Person
ally, there are many horses which
would prefer as hosts than certain
horsey people, and / can think of
nothing more pleasant than the din
ner staged at the Winter Garden the
other day after the close of the mat
inee, where the horses acted as hosts
for the thoroughbreds. All the blue
ribbon winners at the recent Horse
Show took part in a novel entertain
ment, and Mr.. Hoover would have
looked askance had he seen the loaf
sugar distributed among these knights
and ladies Of the ring. Present were
the horses from the stables of Charles
d. Lanier, Reginald Vanderbilt, Will
liam Du Pont, William Koch and f,
Won der Horst Koch. 1t is doubtful
whether any other Of the human
guests had gone the length of Mr..
Horst Koch in telling the world of
their attachment to the equines. Din
ner was served on the state and there
were no stalls in the matter of eating.
