TN l847 play by an American author was
produced in a New York theatre 1t was the
custom then as long since, for Americans
themselves to believe that that which repre-
scented purest culture must come from over
seas
Before the curtain rose on this new play the
leading actor stepped before the footlights and
read poem-prologue which scoffed at the idea
that an American could write a drama, and
tbs. rebuked the sneer by emphatically declar-
ing that an American can. The audience
greeted the patriotic plea and the play with
cheers
Since that day many Americans have written
many great plays. An American culture has
expressed itself as well in the field of fiction,
poetry and philosophy; in art music and in
science.
Culture is just much crop as corn. 1t is
the refinement of the product of the cultivated
field. Growing great crops, producing great
bulk we have refined our output into the best
makes of food and clothes the world has ever
known From the earth we dig both gold and
iron ore, and through the refining processes
we produce the dclicately intricate watch.
The genius that dig out the hillside and
convert it into watch find the melody OF
the brook in the string of the violin.
