THE PASSION PLAY LECTURE. Most of our friends no doubt have noted the readers in THE TIMES calling attention to the lecture on the Passion Play of Oberammergau to be delivered at Gary library auditorium this Evening under the auspices of the Woman's Catholic League. Mr. Matre. who recently talked in Hammond, will aim to visualize what he saw in the solemn Bavarian town. It 3 indeed refreshing In these days, when news columns reek with stories of -war. graft, disaster and the sordid side of life, to find mention of something that barkens back to the Sublime Tragedy of nineteen centuries ago. The Passion Plays now surviving constitute the existing link between our modern drama and the religious plays of the middle ages. Our modern drama does not originate In the ancient, but in the religious spectacles of mediaeval times, themselves evolved from the liturgy of the church. In earlier centuries ecclesiastical worship was invested more with dramatic rhases, and at Easter and Christmas particularly the text of the gospel called for a variety of roles from, minister, choir singer, and parishioner. So. the "Easter plays." which figure prominently in the history of English literature, were quite the fashion in Europe. Some seven, centuries ago the Passion plays sprang into prominence, those originating from the Tyrol being widely copied. Chief of the old plays is the Oberammergau drama first staged In 1633 In commemoration of a deliverance from the Black Plague. It is at Oberammergau where such vivid rramas of the Savior's Passion have been presented.

FEED THE FIRE AND CHEER UP. A hot summer's day in Lake county the pavements are gridirons on which human beings are baked to a brown crisp, the country roads are dust beds which automobiles whose engines leave trails of heat in their wake stir up and scatter over the roadsides. The mercury stands determinedly at 104. Collars wilted, men work in the offices in their shirt sleeves, making frequent trips for ice water or to the open windows on the shady side of the buildings. In the mills workmen bare to the waist swelter in front of furnace fires and over molten lead. ' At the beaches on the lake front thousands of men, women and children wade in and out of the murky water while the skin on their necks and arms is blistered. The street cars are smelly ante-rooms of hades on such days as these. In the homes electric fans even fail to delude the mortal mind. into a sensation of coolness and comfort. All day long the flie3 are at their malicious work, and at night comes hte fiendish mosquito. ' Cheer up. You can't have everything you want.

WHAT THEY WANT. "What good do I get out of the Chamber of Commerce?" asked -a man the other day who was being solicited for a renewal of his ledge to the East Chicago organization. "It hasn't helped me a bit and I don't believe it is worth keeping up. I don't want anything more to do with it.'; This illustrates the point too many members are looking for individual and private gains, while as a matter of fact the work of commercial and civic organizations Is based upon what it can do for the community. Some one remarked at the banquet of the East Chicago men at the Congregational church the other night, 'if we would promise a free supper, souvenir quarters and a ballet dancer to these membership meetings, no hall could be found large enough to seat the crowd. All would find time to come. But community interest seems to be too big a subject for a good many to comprehend." Not long ago the Flon. Judson A. Harmon, of the state of Ohio, remarked. "A good citizen is one who at all times is willing to make some sacrifice of his time, means and convenience to advance the common welfare and has such an abiding Interest in this that he is always watchful and needs no urging to do his duty." It is time in these northern Lake county cities that many men were asking themselves whether or not they are "good citizens" as measured by the above jurist's statement.

BUT FOR THOMAS TAGGART. One of President Wilson's lieutenants gave out a statement in New York yesterday in which the loyalty of Thomas Taggart to the president's cause was openly challenged along with that of Tammany Hall leaders in New York and Roger Sullivan in Illinois, says the Fort Wayne News. Yet the fact remains that President Wilson would have been beaten in Indiana bv three times the figures in the returns had it not been for what Mr. Taggart contributed to the campaign. And this does not involve a financial contribution alone. Personally he had no desire to make the senatorial race, but when forced into it by his party he gave to the contest the best he had. Thousands of workers over the state who had no use for Woodrow W ilson got out and beat the bushes for the sake of Mr. Taggart, and the work of the great Taggart machine is all that prevented a veritable landslide for Mr. Hughes- in this state. For the Republican organization was perfect and the people of the state were not in sympathy with ihe national "administration. Instead of damning Senator Taggart, the president and his friends should make him their most respected and most sincere salaam.

I was Down Town To-day

I Caught Coid "Got my feet wet and my clothes damp. I was dressed rather warm and I went from one store to another and I caught cold. I felt the effects coming home and I could hardly talk'ker choo, my f " "John you go right over to the drug store and get me something for this cold, I feel so miserable and all fagged out.' (John goes to the nearest drug store and gets a bottle of Dr. King's New Discovery for coughs and colds.) 'Tm so glad you got Dr. King's New Discovery, John. Why I remember when I was a little girl how mother used to give me this for colds, it's certainly pleasant to take and soothes the irritated throat and relieves the congestion, the first spoonful makes me feel better already." John says: "The druggist told me that Dr. King's New Discovery was an old preparation and that he had sold it as long as he has had the store and when he used to be a drug clerk. He felt pretty sure it would fix your cold and I had seen it advertised. Glad you found an old friend." You try it.
