"A Glance Backward
by Walter j. Stevens

Those who missed the play
THE Late George Apley9, which
has just concluded a successful
run at the Colonial Theater in
Boston, were indeed unfortunate,
for this play emphasized beauti-
fully the traditions and culture
Of old Boston.
One sat there and forgot, for
the time being, Boston as it is
seen today, with its dirty streets
and decaying structures. Things
in Boston we're different in 1912;
that is, people thought in the
manner of real Bostonians, and
a Harvard man was not the my
thical character that he is to-
day. The Harvard influence,
both intellectually and socially,
left its stamp upon the whole of
greater Boston.
Many in the audience at the
theatre gave audible approval of
the constant use of the broad
"a" by the actors, for the true
Bostonian Of those days loved to
be provincial in both habits and
speech.
AS I listened, I turned back
the pages of time to view once
again the standards and tradi-
lions set by Col. Robert Gould
Shaw, Phillips, Sumner, Garri-
son and Lewis Hayden. Some
thing of inspiration, came to me
as I recalled colored Boston, esq
pecially in the West End where,
most of our people resided at
that time. I view with much re-
gret the passing Of those old
Wem En- d antilles, who have dis
appeared almost in their en-
tirety, for they helped to make
the pages Of fascinating Boston
history what it is.
The guardian. [volume] (Boston, Mass.) 1901-1960, 1946-01-19

And I could not help but re-
call our splendid newspaper of
that time. The Boston Evening
Transcript. I shall always have
anostalgic feeling for the poe
tic expressions Of Stanley Braith-
waite, who was a constant con-
tributeor to the Anthology
Section of that paper.
The play also emphasized
strongly the custom of nice peo-
Pile to have conversational af-
ternoons and evenings, as their
chief means of entertainment.
And I recalled the Round Table
Club of many years ago, when a
group including DR.. Charles G.
Steward, DR.. Walter o. Taylor,
Attorney Charles H. Scales, At
torney j. S. R. Bourne, Forester
B. washington, and myself, found
constant enjoyment in weekly
meetings to discuss current
events.
Personally, I miss those days
when people actually met in a
spirit Of high regard for each
other, and were able to sit for
hours and carry on an animated
conversation. They we're well
verSed in the art of gracious liv-
ing, and knew how to amuse
themselves without having to re-
sort to bridge. They always found
plenty to say and had many use
full ideas to exchange.
And so I left the theater with
fond memories Of THE Late
George Apley", the Boston Sym
phony Orchestra, the State Street
Trust Company where all Har-
ward men kept their stocks and
bonds, and of william Monroe
Trotter.

proach the threshold where I

O'BanyOun's
Observations


Our old friend, Robert Gate
wood, has gone to his reward. /
once thought that it was fitting
to mourn for the passing of my
friends; but the Creator is in
charge of this entire universe,
and he knows what is best. We
are all going the same way, as
far as our physical bodies are
concerned, and 1 have ceased
to look upon death as a calam-
ity. When a man has Quilt up a
character like Bob, a lovable,
cooperative disposition, I have
no doubt that the Master will
find a better job for him, with
more pay. True, we shall miss
him from among us but Ne is not
dead, only glorified. My synpa-
thy to the widow and family.

larger game.
NOW THAT Gov Tobin has
removed Bill Harrison from a
freedom (?) committee L sup
pose Boston is now sanctified
and sanity and colored men
may work in any position here.
Jarvis Hunt and his dear, dear
industrial angels will flap their
wings and Mr.. Tobin will toss
out the first 1916 baseball at
Fenway Field with colored lads
on the diamond.
BOSTON, now that it is puri-
field byMr. Tobin, will present
tomorrow the happy sight of
countless colored bus drivers
and Ell conductors, pretty coll
ored salesgirls in many, many
Boston stores, a colored Judge
and other appointees besides
those usually relegated to "col-
ored jobs" by the pretended
pious political people who have
such a deep religious (?) faith
in their fellow men. That's a
joke, son, that's a joke!
THE WAY to religion is not
the rank hypocritical manner
employed by some so-called
leaders. One of the most IRON
ical situations today is the race
suppressiye forces led by Ran
kin and Bilbo pointing the
scornful finger at the Reds"
when they are no better them
selves. More religious? What
kind?
ARCHBISHOP CUSHING has
expressed great faith in the
colored people Of Boston and
his word rates higher than
Gov. Tobin'S. Since Harrison
is not an atheist, does not
preach the overthrow of Uncle
Sam and since the Communist
party is not classed as an I'M
lawful organization-and GER
tainly is no worse than some Of
the pirate political machines we
have among us the Gov. should
study this situation further.

GRAND MASTER
w. A. HOWARD'S SPEECH

1t is customary for a new
grand master upon being in
stalled into office to outline his
policies asd his future course of
action. shall proceed to do so:
went to our annual conven-
ton on December q, hoping
that I would be elected grand
master, and determined, If
should be, to exert every ounce
of influence l could command
and every argument possible, to
convince you that we should
pledge our allegiance to the
supreme council under the pur-
isdiction of Sow. Grand Com
manderJ. C. Parker of Detroit,
Michigan. I expected opposi-
ton in view Of the. claim of a
contender and. the support he
received in this state.
You adopted my resolution of
allegiance unanimously and so
gave assurance of the preva-
lence Of harmony in our organ
ization in Boston and in MaSsa-
chusettS, and I hope through
out the country.
So the theme of my installa-
ton speech, as grand master,
must be altered because of this
most gratifying condition.
The watchword of my admin
iStration shall be harmony,
that harmony which recognizes
no difference in race; no alpha
betical or symbolic differences;
no difference in utilization or
priority of operation; but all
Masons standing together in
unity, cooperation and harm
