Problems That Perplex
Answered by
BEATRICE FAIRFAX " ,
Prof. Paul H. Grumraann, Uni
versity of Nebraska, Lincoln, wa
presented by Mrs. E. M. Syfert,
president, to the Omaha Drama
league . Tuesday afternoon, Fonte
nelle hotel, in a lecture on "Dan
ton," by Romain Rolland. Rolland,
with his rare devotion to democracy
and a tolerance which transcends the
Interests of his immediate associates,
is certain, said Professor Grummann,
to be of lasting fame in the annals
of France and mankind. "Danton."
however, was referred to by the
speaker as a "comparative' failure."
"We strike the root of the whole
matter." he said, "when we remem
ber that Rolland is a critic, and
novelist and that his excursion into
drama take) him into a field where
he is not conversant with the techni
cal difficulties." Lack of plot and
action, lack of emotional quality,
passages too great in length, too
much quotation on the - part of
characters, and a large number of
classical allusions, are some of the
specific charges made by Mr. Grum
mann. Professor Grummann's next lec
ture before the Drama league, Jan
uary 18, will be upon "Jane Clegg,"
by St. John Ervine.
Some of the high lights in Pro
fessor Grummann's lecture are here
given:
The New Art.
"The new drama In France as in
America calls for a new dramatic
art. A new school of actors less
devoted to tawdrinesa-and less sus
ceptible to vulgarity must spring1 up
before, a new art is possible. The
new art will not be puritanical and
assuredly it will not be vulgar."
A Mute People.
"A difficulty that besets the French
as well as the American drama is
the fact that we are rrowine more
and more to be a mute people. Visit
with me alAjost any class and yon
will agree that the articulation of
pupils is atrocious. Reading aloud
in the family is almost discarded,
and comparatively rare at school.
"In the picture show we look, but
we are not enraptured by the son
orous beauty of the voice. , A genera
tion ago we were glad to pay our
dollars to hear Davenport and
Macready utter, their wonderfuf sen
tences. Are we willing to drop all
the joy of the spoken word out of
our lives or' shall ve strive to bring
back some of the vanished glory of
the old stage?"
..Cranks Proverbially Underfed.
"Zealots and cranks are proverbial
ly underfed and under amused."
Art Put, To Test
"If ,our art, our best drama and
our best music were good for any
thing, we should have resorted to
them during the great crises (re
ferring to recent war days.) We
should have gone back to the best
sources of inspiration, to the best
things that the ideals of the past
could .give us."
Quotation Weakens Dramatic Force
"Wkv are we imoatient with the
minister or orator who interlards his
address with quotations ?.: It is. be
cause we have come to hear this
man's message and when he begins
to quote, he divides our attention and
naturally forfeits our interest. , It
is absolutely fatal to characters in a
drama. . . It is more , effective
dramatically to say: 'Thou shalt not
lie!' than to say: 'Moses in the ten
commandments says thou shalt not
lie.' However good the authority
may be, the reference to it weakens
the dramatic force." .
Great Art is Simple.
"Great art, even Gothic art, re
veals a dominating simplicity amid
a myriad of details. . . Whenever
the drama has been simple it has
lived, when it has become compli
cated it has lost its force."
Cultural Band Is Strong.
"Not language, nor race, nor trade
can bind a people together as effec
tively as a common bond of cultural
tradition. Great leaders with their
trumpets and their drums disturb
our judgment for the hour, but when
equilibrium is restored it is the na
tion's art the flower of its best joy
that endures, and allows it to be
saved or perish." ,
, Only One Dramatic Center.
"I cannot believe that dramatic
activity in Paris reflects the best
.things in French character and man
hood. . . Practically al! ot our dra
matic activity is in New York, not en
tirely a city representative of Amer
ican life at its best. Instead of va ,
thousand centers of dramatic activ
ity, only one. Herevthe fate of our
American plays is made or. unmade,
by a set of dramatic managers and a
host of players who certainly do not
represent our best national ideals.
. . . Every community of the im
portance of. Omaha and Lincoln
might have "groups of local actors."
Flowering of Art, "
"Where a' whole nation sings there
is some chance for'a real'flowering
of musical art at the top. The same
principle obtains in the drama."
Poet Must Preserve Sincerity.
"A great poet cannot be harnessed
to a program of action. When a poet
turns propagandist he commits artis
tic suicide, for no one can tell, after
that whether he is speaking for him
self or for the cause that he represents-.
. . D'Annunzio, little as I care
for him personally, is the typical
poet in refusing to confirm (right or
wrong) the feelings of his fellow
countrymen. The one thing that a
poet must preserve is his sincerity.
Because this is true of Rolland, he
will continue to be of interest to all
true Frenchmen and to civilized per
sons the world over."

' ! A Case for Explanation.
Dear Miss Fairfaxes In the place
where I work la a young man who
has invited me out several times,
but I have' had to refuse because 1
must take by sister with me when I
go out. I cannot invite my friend
to my home beca'ibe my parents
will not allow any-men visitors. For
the last week thUf man has avoided
me and when we do meet he re
fuses to speak. Is It my place to
ask him what Is the trouble or
should I wait until he foels inclined
to speak to me? C. M.
-If you refused the young man's
Invitation without any explanation,
of course he was offended and came
to the conclusion that he was only
annoying you by his efforts to be
friendly. He's acting a bit babyish
about it but the fact that you can
so hurt him shows he is really
interested in you. If you want his
friendship ' ask him to arrange to
take your, sister along or merely
put the condition to him clearly and
see what he does. In any case it
seems clear that you will have to
patch things up andmake the first
advances.
Tho Result of Nagging.
- Dear Miss Fairfax: I have known
a man for four years and have gone
about with him .for two years. Oc
casionally he has not kept ' his ap
pointments and I have naturally ac
cused him of going out with 'other
girls. Last week a girl who knows
him, well told me she saw him out In
his car with two other men and
three girls on a night he was sup
posed to be out with me. and had
told me he had to go out of town on
business. He denies her story.
A. M.
, Of course, there Is no reason why
this young man shouldn't take other
girls out in his car. Tou aren't
married, nor yet engaged, and he has
.every . right In the world to seek
companionship where - he chooses.
What is unfair is that he broke an
engagement with you on the plea of
business and then did Just what he
pleased. But haven't you brought
this on yourself? You nagged at
him when he didn't keep his en
gagements you insisted that he had
been out with other girls. So you
put the idea into his head and gave
him also the feeling that since you
were insisting that he wasn't being
true tO"jrou, he might as well live
up to the accusation. Haven't you
ever heard the quotation, "Might as
well have the game as the name?" -
"Mother" Tiffany, who for the
past 21 years has been acting as a
"mother to thousands of miners at
Nome, Alaska, has returned to her
former home in Seattle Wash. It'
is the first timeshe has been out of
Alaska since she went there in 1898.

Removes Hairy Growths
Without Pain or Bother
; (Modes of Today)
It is not necessary to use a painful
process to remove hairy growths, for
with a little delatone handy you can
keep the skin entirely free from these
beauty destroyers. To remove hair,
make a stiff paste with a little pow
dered delatone and water. Spread this
on. the hairy surface and in about 2
minutes rub off, wash the skin and
the hairs are gone. To guard against
disappointment be careful to get real
delatone. Myc fresh as wanted. '

How to Make a
Gray Hair Remedy
Mrs. Mackie, the well-known New
York actress, now a grandmother,
and whose hair is still dark, recently
made the following statement: "Gray
streaked or taded hair .can be im
mediately turned black, brown or
light brown, whichever shade you
desire, by the use ot the following
simple remedy that you can make at
home:'
"Merely get a box of Orlex pow
der at any drug store. It costs vrry
little and no extras to buy. Dissolve
it in 2 oz. of distilled or rain water
and comb ft through the hair. Full
directions for' use come in each box.
One box will last you for months.
"It is safe, does not rub off, is
not sticky or greasy, and leaves the
hair fluffy. It will make a gray-
haired person look many years
younger.

SORE WAY TO SET
RID OF BLACKHEADS
There is one simplei safe and sure
way that never falls to get rid of
blackheads and that is to dissolve
them.
To do this get two ounces of
calonlte..powder from any drug store
sprinkle a little on a hot, wet
sponge rub over the blackheads
briskly wash the parts and you
will be surprised how the black
heads have disappeared. Big black
heads, little blackheads, no matter
where they are, jslmply dissolve and
disappear, leaving the parts with
out any mark whatever. Black
heads are simply a mixture ot dust
and dirt and secretions from ' the
body that form in the pores of the
skin pinching and squeezing only
cause irritation, rnake large pores;
and do not get them out after they
become hard.- The calonite powder
and the water simply dissolve the
blackheads so 'they wash right out,
leaving the pores free and clean and
