VISION.
The practical man sees a small wooden
box
Strung tight with the gut Of cat,
On which you can scrape with the tail
OF a horse;
There's nothing more to it than that;
Or so he declares, and it's perfectly
true
That's all that violin seems
Unless you have vision which leads
you to see
A casket of loveliest dreams.
The practical man knows a tree is a
tree.
He figures its height and its girth;
How many board feet it would yield
to the saw,
And just what the boards would be
worth.
And yet to the man who has visions
1t stands
miracle sprung from the sod
4 green living glory that ever pro-
claims
The spirit and purpose of God.
The practical man sees practica
world
And runs it in practical style,
He's safe and he's sane as an every
day guide,
But still, every once in while,
Though practical people make living
run smooth,
Let's yield to the magic thrall
OF dreamers who see beautiful vision:
supply
The reason for living at all!

Just recently happened to hear the
remark of very nice girl with ex
tremely keen insight, Il wish someone
would tell me just exactly what virtue
is. What do people mean by 1t? Just
because my surroundings have set me
on the right path and kept me there.
just because my training has been
only of the kind to instill strict mo-
rality in me, am so much better than
the girl who has not had those advan-
tages? When a girl is born of parents
of low morality when her surroundings
have been of the kind to drag her al
ways downward, is she to be blamed
If she falls? Or at least, am so much
better than she because remain a
moral person?"
Older people may think that such
thoughts should not be in the head of
young girl, but that is simply one
Of the changes that have come about
with this generation And the thought
should give us all something to think
about. Before we condemn too strong
ly we should know the circumstances
and before we give too much credit to
ourselves we should take into consid-
Grafton the benefits which life has be-
slowed upon us.

FIRE AT BOILING FIELD.
Frame Structure at Naval Air Sta
tion Is Damaged.

Fire in a one-story frame building
on the grounds of the naval air sta
tion at Boiling Field, Anacostia, this
morning about 1870 O'Clock caused
damage estimated at $1,000 and
brought two companies of the city
fire department. Trouble with the
water supply on the reservation han
dicapped the work of the military fire
company. The city firemen, however,
prevented the destruction of much
property.
The fire started in one end of the
structure occupied as the post can
teen for the storing of clothing and
other supplies, the building being
about 250 feet long. Battalion Chief
Gill was in charge Of the firemen, and
streams of water from the river
quickly extinguished the flames.
Fire was discovered in the meter
laboratory of the Potomac Electric
Power Company. second foor of
streets, early this morning, where a
quantity, of sulphur ignited and
started a fire.
Employees of the company broke
open a door and were fighting the fire
with chemicals when Deputy Chief
Nicholson and several companies of
firemen arrived. Burning sulphur
emitted fumes which made it difficult
for fremen to work, but the blaze was
SO quickly eXtinguished that firemen
did not have to use gas masks.
Many new electric meters in the
building were damaged or ruined. The
building is a fireproof structure; and
only the windows and doors were
burned. Damage to the building and
contents was estimated at approxi-
mate4y $1,000

Island OF Erwhon perhaps-is the
place where Russoms universal robots
are made. On that island some vaulting
inventors discover the Frankenstein Sc
cret of making people. These are called
robots. The robot Is not a human being
in the sense that he has a soul or In
the sense that he carries within him the
secret of his own renewal, Indeed he
Is just a mechanical device, but he is
good enough TO do the mean and in
glorious labor OF the world. Because
he can do that the men of the island
turn him out by the million. Some are
guided by the sheer joy and pride Of
invention. some by greed for the money
that the robots can bring in the market
and some by genuine aspiration thus
to release human beings from toll and
so lberate an aristocracy to enjoy and
appreciate the world.
But for whatever reason. the robots
are turned out so thick and so fast that
before long the earth Is aswarm with
them-millions upon millions of them.
dull. spiritless beings that hew the wood
and carry the water, and even. at the
behest Of governments get into uniforms
and march off to war And in the end
they discover their own power. and the
play ends on their uprising-ends on the
spectacle of the last handful of human
beings left in the world, crouching in a
room. into which. silent. tremendous
terrible. the avenging mob forces its
way at last.
That climax is magnificertly managed
at the Garrick--a climax in which great
beauty of setting. much wisdom in
casting and a fine. bold imagination in
direction meet In one genuinely distin-
guished achievement. There is room left
only for the briefest appreciation of~such
players as Basil Sydney. Louis Calvert,
Henry Travers. Helen Westley and John
Rutherford, all old standbys of the Guild
who are most useful in the present enter
prise. They all contribute with varying
force to the skillful presentation of a
fantastic and curiously terrifying play
There is, it must be said. an epilogue.
1t Is a hopeful little afterpiece set ir,
the wreckage of an over mechanicalized
civilization that has fallen to pieces for
lack Of soul. 1t witnesses the birth
of love and the stirring of the secret of
life in two of the new made robots. 1t
was probably written to cheer UP a
thoroughly depressed audience before
sending it home to bed. And in so far
as it says anything, 1t expresses the
conviction that however much of a
mess man may make of this world
somehow. somewhere life will go on.
Which seems highly probable

Ruth St. Denis
Is Welcomed Back
in Classic Dances
Reappears After Five Years
With Ted Shawn ami Her
Company.

Ruth ST Denis. with her husband, Ted
Shawn, and company Of classic dancers.
an American born and trained. made
her first public appearance in New York
in Ave years yesterday afternoon in the
first of two matinees at the Selwyn
I Theater. In the interim Miss st. Denis
has lost none of her grace or the popu-
larity she enjoyed on Broadway years
ago. She has been devoting herself ex-
clusively, with Mr.. Shawn, to the teach
ing of her classic art in her school at
Los Angeles for the greater part OF the
time. Yesterday she emerged with
program and cast containing all of the
interpretive charm that marked her pre-
vious appearances plus some creations
In rhythmic movements and interpreta-
tions that will add luster 70 her past
laurels
Inasmuch as Miss St. Denis and Mr.
Shawn have given to America its most
faithful and graceful historic interpreta-
tions of the dance. il was to be expected
that the war would leave its impress
somewhere on their art, and II did. The
third number, Revolutionary Etude,
Chopin. with Shawn and the Misses
Brooks. Taylor and Scheffer, was one
of the most virile and realistic on the
program.
Miss st. Denis frequently was COM
PEELED TO respond to encores and curtain
calls. At the final curtain she responded
with speech.
The emotional coloring of her inter-
probation of the opening number, Sonata
Pathetique, first movement. Beethoven
was vivid. poetic and graceful. Her
Spanish numbers seemed TO catch the
fancy of her audience most, while the
Orientalia, in which historic China,
Crete India, Siam, Japan, Java and
Egypt was the most spectacular.
Miss Martha Graham with Mr. Shawn.
showed herself faithful pupil OF Miss
st. Denis in the presentation of the
dance drama based upon the ancient
Toltec legend of ancient Mexico.
Miss st. Deniss final seasons ap-
pearance in New York will be at the
matinee this afternoon, as her tour be-
gins tomorrow.

The Theater Guild began its new sea-
son last evening with an elaborate pro-
duction of a play in many respects more
remarkable than any it has at
tempted since it first undertook the
task of remaking the American theater
from the vantage point of the once aban-
doned Garrick. This one is an importa
ton from VIENNA Czech play from
the pen of the same Karl Capek who
also wrote THE Insect which Mr..
Brady is to produce further up town
later in the fall.
1t is called "R. u. r." For some rea-
son this title. which vaguely suggests
an Englishman in the throes of tele-
phone conversation, has light hearted
and facetious cannotation. In reality
"R. L. r. is nightmare in three acts
and an epilogue. 1t is murderous So
cial satire done in terms of the most
hair raising melodrama. 1t has as
many social implications as the most
heady of Shavian comedies and 1t also
has as many frank appeals to the human
gooseflesh as 1.-The Bat or any other
latter day thriller
In melodramatic suspense and in its
general illusion of impending and i'm
mediate doom this piece from Vienna
makes on the alarmed playgoer across
the footlights somewhat the same i'm
preston as would an internal machine
of which the mechanism mad been set
and the signal given And. indeed. you
rather gather that Capek has some
thing of the same illusion as he con-
templates with panied astonishment the
antics of the mad world in which he
lives. His play has singular power
to communicate that alarm for the
fantastic island on which its scenes are
ubfolded is not sufficiently unlike the
so-called civilized world as the twentieth
century finds it to let the passing play
goer enjoy the spectacle with a quite
comfortable sense of remoteness and de-
tachment
The aforesaid nameless island-the
