The Greek Unities of time, place
and action we're preserved by gen.
erations of playwrights until they
were shattered by Ibsen and the
Elizabethans. The Greek chorus,
once potent agent for describing
the moving mob spirit, has degen-
Grated into single characters typi-
flying the attitude of the man of
the street.
The chorus has meandered from
the dramatic stage and found it's
place in music. The swelling
melody of the oratorio and the
light strained tune of the musical
comedy chorus are of the same
ancestry. The musical comedy
has merely followed the voice of
Dionysius and the oratorio the
wailing intonations of the suffer-
ing mortals.
The Importance of Greek drama
is not disputed. Without it, after
a seige of barbarians wiped out
ancient Greece, there would have
been no pure model for drama.
Either that or literature would
have been forced to turn to the
Orient for guidance and the very
mode of life today would have
been changed.

Your Health

xTOr1R community officials can protect you and
YOUR neighbors against amebic dysentery IN Serv-
eral different ways.
Much depends on having properly guarded wa
ter supply a proper disposal of sewage protectlon
of food from flies and suitable examination ana
treatment of walters cooks dishwashers and other
food handlers in public eating places
Chlornaton of water will sterillze 1t against osc
ters but it takes 100 times much chlorine to XIII
the cysts of the entameba histolyca as 1t does to
kill bacteria in water.
In fact the addition of this amount of chlorine
would make the water unfit for drinking
Therefore whenever water is contaminated heaV-
iv with entameba histoytica, the only way to make
it safe is to boil it. obviously difficult matter for
any city water supply.
TN controlling food handlers. they should be ex-
amned at fairly frequent intervals, and their ex-
cretons should be tested in the laboratory to rule
out the presence of the organism.
Following the outbreak which occurred in Chi
caeo most large cities developed series OF rules re-
garding examination of food handlers.
Fortunately. several methods of treatment have
been established as useful In controlling ameblc
dysentery All the remedies concerned are pow
erful Therefore. they dangerous if taken in
excessive dosage and never should be taken except
under advice and control of physician.
A MONG the remedies most commonly used to-
N dav and proved to be valuable are chiniofon
carbarsone and vioform. These remedies will con-
troll the entamebs and eliminate it from the body.
The drug called emetin. which is much used in
this condition is especially valuable in controlling
the symptoms of the disease and usually is given
early to bring about prompt recovery
Since the diagnosis of this disease is made with
certainty only after the excretions have been ex-
amined under the microscope, to determine whether
entameba histolytica is present. it is not safe to
make the diagnosis until such microscopic study has
been made.
At the same time the man who makes the lab
oratory study must make certain that the ameba is
the real entameba histolytica and not form of the
other amebas that live in the bowels without causing
symptoms.
He also must distinguish between the dysentery
caused by the ameba and the dysentery which fol-
lows infection with certain bacteria.

bad corn whisky. And something
to be avoided after 3 o'clock in

Visitors expect to find a. vast

the entire populace tap-dancing
on the street corners and adding
a few choral frills to the song
called That's Why Darkies Were
Born"
But Harlem isn't much like
that. Outwardly its existence is
"dry long so"-a peculiar express
sion which means ordinary or un-
eventful. A fellow might say, for
example, "We was jest settin'
there, dry long so, when in come

day that Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh was
invited to speak his piece in Washington, and 1
surprised that such handy freestyle politicians, as
those who are running the New Deal, should have
let a hostile witness smother their man. Mr. Cham

correct timing and exploitation, would have COM

Euripedes, another Greek dram
atist, is best known for his
"Medea,' - in which Medea, fleeing
with Jason and the newly cap
tured golden fleece, cuts up her
brother and throws the pieces into

Medea is the woman, who, IN
fatuated by Jason, succeeded in
stealing the golden fleece for
him against HercuIean odds.
Those long years ago Euripedes
presented the modern concep-

peaks of the age when Aeschylus,
Sophocles, Euripides and Aristo-
phanes wrote. Scholars gathered
to study under Plato and Aristotle.
Art created then was of f1awless
beauty. Reflected in Greek drama,
which has remained an almost
unsltered pattern through the
centuries, are the ideas created
ana practiced then. War, cor
ruption and false standards were
pitilessly attacked.
An undercurrent Of Greek
drama is the strain of fataliSn--
the inevitable nemesis. The
Agamemnon trilogy best evidences
that.
THE story, as is recounted in

non, fretting at the contrary
winds which delayed his fleet,
was persuaded to slay his own
daughter, Iphigenia, to appease
the deities. This was the initial
sin that doomed his line to de-
struction.
Her mother, Clytemnestra,
treasured up her hate through
the ten years war and killed Aga
memnon on his return home. She
then reigned in triumph with her
paramour until Orestes, her son,

CATIRICAL Aristophanes, writ
~ er of comedy, is sophisticated
and very readable. Many jokes,
which draw laughs for their orig
inality on the stage or air today,
date back through hundreds of
years to the author of THE
Frogs" in which AriStophanes
makes light of his studious, seri-
Gus contemporaries.
The first line of '~The Frogs" is,
Master, shall I begin with the
usual jokes that the audience al
ways laugh at?" A vehement pas
sion is described as "a moderate
little passion" AS one character
tries to make a serious study of
his feelings, another character in
terrupts with Were you ever
seized with a sudden, passionate
longing-for mess of porridge."
Hundreds of years later Eugene
O'Neill, American playwright,
resurrected the Greek drama and
