City History Club Is
Peeved With Goods
of the Lightning"

THE first protest against Goods
Iof the Lightning" which has
several characters who intimate
that all is not right in the judicial
circles of the realm. has been re-
ceived. 1t is from The City History
Club of New York, of which Mrs.
4. Barton Hepburn is president.
The honorary vice-presidents are,
among others. John H. Finley, Otto
H. Kahn, William Fellows Morgan,
Frank A. Vanderlip. Mrs. Jacob A.
Riis and George w. Wickersham.
The letter from Mrs. Hepburn is as
follows:
"Messrs. Hamilton MacFadden
and Kellogg Gary,
The Little Theatre,
23S w. 44th St., N. Y. C.
Gentlemen:
At the meeting of the Board
of Trustees of the City History
Club which was held November
Sth, the following resolution was
passed:
1t was moved by Mrs. Wyatt,
seconded by DR.. Peterson that the
President be authorized to write
to the management of the play
Gods of the Lightning express
ing disapproval Of the offensive
and disloyal utterings permitted
to be spoken in the text. This
motion was unanimously carried"
AS a patriotic organization we
offer this protest to the disre-
spect to our Constitution and
flag.
Sincerely yours,
(Signed) EMILY E. HEPBURN,
(Mrs. A. Barton Hepburn,
Presidency"
Mr.. MacFadden, in replying tc
Mrs. Hepburn, intimates that the
matter isn't so serious and that a
research into some of the utter.
ances which attended the birth OF
these somewhat United States
might be interesting to those who
feel that the speeches in the play
are offensive. His letter follows:
"My dear Mrs. Hepburn:
have received your letter of
November 9th.
In reply, both Mr.. Gary and I
would like to say that we have
produced Gods of the Lightning
because we know it to be one of
the most important pieces of dra-
matte writing we have ever been
privileged to read. 1t is not the
province of a theatrical producer
to question the opinions of char
acters within an authors play
except on the ground that such
expressions are not motivated
dramatically. We believe that the
dialogue in Gods of the Light
ming is unusually well motivated.
AS producers, we should welcome
suggestions to where we can
find equally stirring dramatic
speech.
In closing, may step out of
my role of producer and suggest
! that the History Club of New
! York might find interesting
perusal of some of the more i'm
portant utterances that brought
about the birth of this country.
Very sincerely yours,
(Signed)
| HAMILTON MacFADDEN."

necessary Identification tags, with which
they were supplied by members of the

stunts They included Billy Gee and
Anna May Cronk who performed rope
stunts and other specialties; Henry
Melzer, sr., who was decked out as a
policeman and put Philippine monkey
through its PAGES; Henry Meier, jr,
and J. j. Mccarthy.
This afternoon at 4 o'clock the chill
dren will be served ice cream, Lemonade
and other refreshments. They viii oil
leave the park by street car, bus and
