AN INDIAN THEATRE
Dr. Hartley Burr Alexander of the
University of Nebraska has contri
buted an article entitled "For an
American Indian Theatre'' to the
Theatre Arts Monthly in which lie
points out the beauty of American
Indian art and advocates the es
tablishment of a theatre for its per
petuation. Despite the fact that pro
ducers say "Indian stuff doesn t go,
he believes that such a theatre "holds
nromise of being th truest agent for
the promotion of our appreciation
of what the Red Man has to bequeath
unto all the arts.
He advances three reasons in sup
port of his proposal.
"The first has to do with the
philosophy ," he writes. "When
ever may have been his coming:, the
Indian has lived long enough under
his own skies to have developed into
mnturity modes of artistic expression
that ought not to be lost and can
not be aeain developed. Life's
J chances are too few not to be all
precious, and piety and curiosity
alone should justify every effort to
make whnt we can of them
We spenk of this art as symbolic,
but the quality which is meant by
this distorting term is just that
which I have in mind when I speak
of art as a language of creative
life. Vastly more than for us, art
istic expression has for the Indian
the character of living, and in col-

UI ItllU HI DUIlfc, ill UOIllc in 14
matic rite, he speaks as richly as
we with our machines and, I some
times think, with truer meditation.
"My second reason is second only
in order. It is (with bold challenge)
that Indian themes are beautiful,
and susceptible of being WTOUght
to forms of beauty. Among our
own ancients we accord with perfect
unanimity pre-eminence in art to
the Greeks; the goods show it; the j
Greek tradition is the near-creator
of art in Europe; all other sources
combined Semitic, Celtic, German
ic are its far followers. But here
in the New World is a source which,
CLASSES DISMISSED
Ten o'clocks will be dismissed
at 10:40 instead of 10:50

every student will thus be given an
opportunity to hear Dr. Gerald Bir

cago, speak on "Religion and Modern
Life" at St Paul church.
The University Y. M. C. A., which
is sponsoring the convocation, as
sures students that Doctor Smith is
a man worth hearing. His subject is
one of almost universal interest, and

shows herself to us in Old World col

feet and will hold our bones Is as
yet In no sense our Holy and An

not so. His race had dwelt during
it, formation in this, to him, old
world, and all his thoughts, when it
came to artistic expression, took
on the character end Bubstance of
the forest-land and prairie-land and
mesa-land, of fur and feather, of
huaca and birch, and of every native
image. It is his land spiritually, as
is must become ours ere we may

such manner as it has been his. To
think, then, that we shall not profit
by what he has done for us is to
reject long centuries of human ex
perience, during which the soil of
our land has been lovingly reclaimed
unto the living substance cf humanity."
