School for lain Street.
And in the United -States. Main
Street is no Moan Street.~ nor Min-
nority Street. It is. in tact as in name.
the main street 0! the country where
the main ms. or the W. live: 1nd»
it asks. not tor eccentric opinions but
for the main truths about lite. here
and abroad.‘ Main Skeet wants world
peace. world health. world 1mg“,
world lesion . The deeper the appeal
world; happiness. .and properly ap.
proached. Main Street is ready for a
to Main Street, the deeper and more
instant is the response. '
In more pellimllm. scholarship
criticism. Main Street is-not much in-.
terested.. {An address must be ‘tn'~
formative. progrcslve. positive. in-
spirational. It must'starts somewhere
and it must lead somewhere. It must
hit the mind. both with facts and with.
phrases. You are dealing not with
selected intellectuals or highly trained
bureaucrats but with the average citi-
zens o: a vast and varied decocracy.
Mere personal idiosyncracies are here
an importience.
“first Main Street Wants
This applies to the music that Main
Street wants. The musicians who
tries to show of! his own technique is.
after all .not artist but an cgotist: and
his fireworks. it he be, a man. with
her vocal gymnastics. it she be a wo-
man. are received by Main Street with
the polite contempt which such con-
ceited antics deserve.
To Main street. music is neither an
acrobatic performance nor painless
shriek but an expression of the soul
and only the great music satisfies. It
may have humor: it may include lass;
but it must not exclude reverence. The
game or life which the common people
play is a serious game. For them.
duty and labor and suffering are for-
midable realities. And. at the Chau-
tauqua. .they expect a serious and
worthy program.
About fifty dramas will be produced.
Some of these are Shakespeare. for
instance. "The Taming of the
Shrew." other modern. like the cancer
ial Chautauqua piece. "Crossed Wires."
Here we encounter the problem of
scenery. on which there are still two
views. It seems. however. to be clear
that the school will win which advo-
cates a plainly draped stage rather
than a stage in which trees, house. &c..
are not very successfully attempted.
It would seem as it the art which fur-
nishes broad and symbolic designs
for the theatre must be particularly
suitable for Chautauqua.
Swarthmorehas issued a challeng-
ing u'platiorm." It suggest tat while
the Chautauqua knows nothing of
parties and churches. it is vitally in-
terested in religion and citizenship
The aim. as omclally stated. is “to
take the Mutiny out of the Communi-
ty and to leave the Unity." And a
drastic schedule of reforms is sug-
gested. which may be summarized
broadly as follows. .
Main Aims of Program
For the Home: .
1. National and stringent laws for
marriage and dcvorce.
:. One standard 01 purity for men
and women.
8. Health and housing regulations.
4. Abolition of child labor and
education for all children.
5. Universal physical training in
schools and colleges tor children and
young people. ‘
6. An improved tone on the stage
and in movie house.
For Industry
Equal pay for equal work by
men and women.
2. Higher salaries for ministers of
religion and teachers.
3. A Just wage to all employee and
a {airreturn to invested capital.
4. A fair price by law or regula-
tloii for products of the soil. in ism
and garden. ,
For International Peace:
1. Reduction of armament.
2. An international court” with
power to enforce decisions it need be.
by force of arms.
3. A more intimate understanding
among nations by the interchange of
speakers and leaders or thought.
Patriotic Aims:
1. A better observance ct all laws.
both State and national.
z. A better class or men for pub-
lic office.
3. Fewer members of Congress.
State Legislature and City Councils
and higher salaries for those elected.
While therefore. Chautauqua is 100
per cent American in the United
States and 100 per cent Canadian
in the Dominion. it wants to see
wrongs righted. 0n the other hand.
the claim is that its platform is held.
entirely free of subsidized publicity
and propaganda. Numerous interests
have ottered tree lecturers. but these
02ers have bee declined. A Chau-
tauqua may be good or bad. but it is
at least disinterested.
Yet. for the Chautauqua managers.
the maintenance of an attitude so
idependcnt is not easy. While Chane
tauqua is not out for profit. the en-
terprise presents every year a big
problem in finance. There has to be
a local raniee of funds whichper-
hsps would not be necessary it method
and ideals were adapted to mere pup-
ularity. Chautauqua is not however.
a circus. And while it has mingled
the grave and the gay. it has refused
to sell its soul.
