A
N interesting note comes from
Oscar Wilder Craik. director,
l J a . 1 v 'X rrt
wua news or ina juime i nea
ter, or. more properly, the Omaha
Folk theater. The note follows:
"During the last three years, there
were manv wonderful things accom
plished through, the efforts ofall
people working together for a com
mon cause. It is largely to pre
serve this feeling of fellowship that
our theater movement is now
launched. We are working to es
tablish in Omaha a Folk theater,
a theater owned by the people, man
aged by the people, and supported-
ny me peopie. it is not at an our
idea to form around the theater an
exclusive circle of aesthetics, whose
only object in being associated with
the project, is that they may be in
fashion. If the entite people of
Ctriaha, from the most cultured ar
tists, to the persons most lacking in
academic training, do not feel . thail
the theater belongs to them, per
sonally and completely, and' is for
them to use and enjoy, our efforts
will be a failure. There is only one
qualification which people must
have to tae active part in the
theater. They must be sincerely inv
terested, and willing while they are
at it to put their whole soul into
the ork. The most fundamental
instinct of human beings is to ex
press themselves, and the most
complete means of expression is the
drama. It is "the people who wish
to express themselves, who shall
form the working force of our
theater. It is the people -who wish
to learn or re-learn points of life,
who shall form our audiences. It is
tht people well blessed with worldly
goods, with ,fcig hearts and big
minds, who shall form our support.
The Folk theater will be a human
institution, 1 founded on the divine
spirit of humanity, which has grown
so; wonderfully durjng the last few
years.
We will hitch our wagon to a
star, but we will keep the hind
wheels on the ground and we will
all work together. t
Very sincerely yours,
OSCAR WILDER CRAIK.

There art shifty eyes
In the heads '
Of men
And the heads
Of women too
That twist '
And turn
, From right to wrong
When talking
To me and you.
They shift
To the floor
To the street
To the sky
Or the ground
Or across the street
Theyvwander around
Without guide
Or rudder "
Everywhere except
To meet your eye.
But the little child ,
Has a fearless gaze
An honest appeal "
Or a fair attack
For his conscience
Is clear . i
And he has no fear
That discovery '
Will thwart his plans. ' ,
As time goes on
And his heart is warped 1
And his schemes
Are twisted and wily
His eyes betray
A soul turned gray
From dishonest mould
Treacherous decay.
Two ees grow shifty
And his evil ways
Are boldly placarded
To the world
No sign is brighter
In electric lights .
Than the lights , '
Of the eyes
Which disclose the soul.
The man who refuses
To meet your ga
In a fearless '
Frank .
And calmly way
Is a coward
A sneak
And a treacherous one
Whose intent is evil
Whose thoughts s
Are thieves
Trust not '.
