THE SUGAR-LUMP HERO

He's the Beloved of the Magazine Public and His Creators Have the Right of Way in the So-called Literary Limelight.

MY DOCTOR MIGHTY Fir

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. :his last novel which was the horrors

After all the sugar-lump hero is the , c' a certain sort of marriage

one that gets the applause. Witness the choice confections fthat Robert W. Chambers hands out through the pages of the Cosmopoli-

of the parent institution. In such a place they find employment and thereby contribute in some degree to the cost of their own support, and also, furnish examples of industry which help and encourage others. The majority of our insane are not strangers to the farm and take kindly to the effort to give occupation of a simple and healthful character which brings as a direct reward larger freedom than is possible in the parent institution, where with all classes of mental disorders more or less restriction is necessary for safety and welfare. Idleness is as harmful and mischevious to the able-bodied inmate of the public institution as it is in the social and business world, and in addition to its value in reducing the cost of maintenance, it checks deterioration. The good of occupation when judiciously supervised, comes not only to the convalescent insane, but to the disturbed and chronic classes as well. It discourages introspection, promotes bodily welfare and comfort by exercise in the fresh air and sunshine and develops a sense of freedom. For these

reasons, employment is an essential

factor in the scheme of treatment and, hence, occupation for the able-bodied In the hospitals for the insane, as well as in all other public institutions, is one of the problems of the management, because the opportunities are necessarily limited in the presence of large numbers of all classes. The colony supplies this deficiency in the parent institution by broadening the field of work and offers a simple, wholesome and active existence close to nature. Its fundamental idea is work and freedom. Colonization promises an economy both in the cost of construction and

maintenance. There is an economic ; limit in every public institution which ;

should not be passed, and this stage of growth has already been reached in four of the hospitals, and the new one as completed was planned and built to it and should never be extended. The purchase of four or five hundred acres of land in the proximity of

tan. Life as it is not lived. At least not by the great average. , And it is to be doubted by the few. Chambers is the apostle of the chocolate cream. Although the chocolate cream, concretely, was projected into the literary limelight by the incomparable Mr. George Bernard Shaw. In "Arms and the Man." But this debut of the chocolate cream was peculiarly Shawesque. That is, while seemingly an innocent little sweet filled with sugar and cream and covered with chocolate it was really filled with ginger and fireworks. George Bernard Shaw is the line of cleavage between the old and the new on the modern stage. Some one said recently, and said well, that Arnold Bennett's plays owed their existence to Bernard Shaw. That if Shaw -had not been Arnold Bennett's plays would not have generated. This is true. For Shaw was that rarest among artistic performers a creator. An originator. And Shaw's methods are fascinating. The most serious when he is seemingly the most flippant, he rams home his truth by way of epigram, wit and paradox. To drive a point home he will drag himself before the footlights and turn

i himself inside out for the delectation

of the audience who do not see that they are being gently bamboozled into swallowing the noxious or distasteful dose by route of a spoonful of vinegar. Shaw sponsored the chocolate cream in literature. But Robert W. Chambers is a chocolate cream writer. Between the two the chasm is vast, deep and yawning. After all the American public has not got beyond the chambermaid phase. It dearly "loves a lord." 'Or, for us, a member of the New York Four Hundred. The Four Hundred has been metamorphosed into the Smart Set but Ward McAllister coined a phrase which is much more expressive and enduring. He didn't intend to coin it. But he did. The most significant and important things usually happen through acci-

as re

alistically and as honestly, as it call

ed for, he'd have written a great novel. But he only dallied with it. He sugared it over, crimped the edges of the pastry, decorated tlie top with a marachino cherry or two, piled whipped cream in the center and sprinkled powdered pecans round the edge. But they like it They don't want the heavy courses but the fluffy deserts. And as long as this country sustains its puritanical attitude toward life so long will its literature remain in the egg-puff state. For it is this false and smirking Puritanism that sustains the equally false and smirking fiction. If Chambers would pass the fire of his genius through the crucible of life he'd produce literature. And far more compelling than the chocolate cream variety he hands out through the pages of popular magazines.

It sells! And the selling quantity can never be discounted. Because it argues, if not an excellence, a quality of some sort that is in demand. Nowadays art goes by the board. It's thrown into the discard. Everything is measured by the rule of the shekel. If the fancy of the public fastens on a legitimate artistic manifestation then the latter is demanded. But not for and of itself. For the thing it is fancied to be. Chambers tried out the public on a diet of art plus personality. The public rejected it. Or rather didn't care for it. The

"More more more! " And the finale of the last tale prefaces the announcement of the next. It is a great game. And Chambers knows how to play it. But he writes not of men and women but of puppets.
