Nations Theatre Experiment Marked With Such Glaring Success that Repe- tition of “Ali Nations” Theatre is Urged by Nationalities Croatian Pioneers to A theatrical experiment such as has been going forward in Cleveland during the past half year reveals dramatic and liter- ary resources in our great cities which are too little known. Plays in twenty languages, drawn from the literature of the world and participated in by thirteen hundred people, is the record of Cleveland’s Theatre of the Na¬ tions during its first season. It represents the first comprehen- sive attempt in any city to unite the dramatic efforts of ali races and nationalities for the benefit of the community as a vvhole. During successive weeks 22 The Siovene school will this Sunday endeavor to captivate the Sabbath afternoon thrill seekers in a most unique man- ner. Never before Ihas a group even considered tfie presenta- tion of -a Flower Festival and so it will be the 'Siovene scKool who for the first time in the history of Slovenes will attempt to awaken and cTevelop an en- thusiasm for flowers which is potentially if not already ac- tually within us. French Street Fairs have had a popular recep- tion in this city and so the Cul- tural Committee of the Siovene school feels confident that the Slovenes as well .as other na¬ tionalities have or can develop an equal capacity for appreciat- ing simple pleasures. The Flower Festival will be held at Pintar’s Farm, a spot with vvhich every picnicker in the city is well acquainted and vvhich is so conveniently situa- ted that no difficulty should be had in flocking to it. Dance mušic and a diversified program of entertainment has been ar- ranged to arrest the attention of tihe young and old. Men and women in quaint na- tional costume will weave in and out amongst the people to invoke them witih a charm for flowers.

The experi- ment was sponsored by the “Cleveland Plain Dealer” which provided the Little Theatre of Cleveland’s Public Hall and also stage settings for the perform- ances. Thirty - six national groups were represented in the General Advisory Committee, of vvhich tihe city’s recreation com- missioner, John H. Gourley, was chairman. A review of this year’s pro- ductions indicates not only the range of work accomplished by these foreign born groups, but the varied cultural backgrounds vvhidh America, if she would, might more fully draw on for pelled each year to resort to some scheme by whioh it can ob- tain funds to continue its splen- did' work and which in the end is for benefit of the young gen- ex-ation. The Siovene school is being maintaineH with a view of avoiding an over rapid assimil- ative process which ultimately vvould mean the relinquishment of the inherited language. With this noble purpose, high pres- sured salesmanship will not be tolerated since each attendant will recognize the necessity of his contributing as generously as feasible and -no more. Horticulturists, hybridizers, On Feb. 1, 1899 in a pictur- esque peasant Jugosiav town, Moravec, was born a baby who cihuckled and twisted its frailj body like most ordinairy heathy babies, but little did the proud parents dream that some- day in the new world a Slav and English language comprehensi- ble to thousands of people \vould evolve from the same inarticu- late and unintelligible sounds emanating from the new bundle of life. The selection of an ap- propriate name to bear through life was not left to his choice and thus having no alternative he was entitled Vatro. However Vatro is a good Christian name and he has no fault to find with it except that its rarity in this United States compells ihim to interpret to the bewildered youth with vvhich he finds coh- tact that his name would be stili one and the same if it vvere Walter. Vatro did not attain a very great size or age before he was requested to do the simple chcres about the house and he reminds us 'that ithe requests vvere as a rule carried out. Like most of our parents^relate stor- ies of being guardians of some lowing kine he too wlll some day teli his offspring of the time he was “cowboy.” In this country we are ex- peeted to ihelp about the house during the špare moments vvhile vve spend the most of our time at school. In Europe conditions vvere reversed, Vatro trudged to school during’ his špare time and assisted about the farm the greatest part of his time. After absorbing ali the knavvledge the grade scihools of his home town had to offer, his parents realiz- ing the importance of satisfy- ing the knovvledge hungry Vat¬ ro, he was sent to Ljubljana to high school where he soaked up more information. About tlhis time there vvas a steady influx of immigrants to this country and Vatro’s father having heard so much in favor of America decided to also em- Procceds of “Serbian Day” to be Used for Jugosiav Memorial Class Room in the Cathe- dral of Learning, Uni- versity of Pittsburgh A reunion of the Serbian families of Western Pennsylvan- ia, eastern Ohio, and tihe north- vvestern part of West Virginia, is held annually in Kennywood Park, Pittsburgh. These gatherings of the Serbs have a social. significance. They bring together families, renevv old friendships, and make new acquaintances. Old and young, from ali walks of life, fervent- ly await this “day of days” vvhich will be held this year on August lst. Relatives, old friends and families who parted a long time ago, are meeting here once a year. Mingling betvveen thou¬ sands of people of the same blood and speech, one perceives the outpouring of the Serbian soul and blending of American standards of life with that of the first generation of the Ser¬ bian immigrants. In former years, the proceeds of “Serbian Day” have been used to help the Orphans’ Fund of the World War.

Before Varto arrived in this country it vvas his belief that he could just continue his educa- tion in Siovene Schools vvhich he concluded by eomparison of pop- ulations. He knevv that nearly 30,000 Slovenes had at that time made Cleveland their home and that only about that number of Slovenes comprised the largest Siovene metropolis, Ljubljana, in Jugoslavia. It proved hovv- ever that his reasoning vvas good but that he vvas to be sad- ly disappointed. He realize.d the magnitude of our nation soon upon his arrival into this country, on the Labor Day of 1913 vvhen the door of opportunity vvas flung open to j him. Hovvever the supreme test of greatness is grovvth and ad- aptability and it vvas not long before he adjusted himself so as to achieve success in later 'wrmo J. j ? G/Z/jLjL years. He enrolled at St. Vitus school and vvas so ridiculed by the rest of his classmates for vvearing long trousers that he was for«ed to return to short pants vvhich he had outgrovvn a long time al- ready in his native land. He .studied hard and inspite of his handicap in the strange lang¬ uage he vvas soon recognized as a very apt študent. After a year spent in grammar grades in this eountry he found it neces- sary to discontinue going to school for som- Ume due to the -laek cf funds. B. mg these early years in this eountry he consid¬ ered the American born Siovene boys of his age to be childish, irresponsible and he vvas very depressed and lonely for lack of companionship. Unable to continue at school he then vvent in search of vvork, and sought employment vvith the railroad, in attempt to satisfy an ambition to be an engineer of one of those monstrous puff-' ing locomotives. His ambition here vvas ground to dust hovv¬ ever vvhen he vvas toki that only large, muscular individuals vvere needed to control and manage locomotives. After making many inquiries in the faetories of Cle¬ veland for vvork he finally land- ed a job as shipping clerk vvith the JI. Black Co., a firm hand- ling ladies apparel. He vvorked here for a year and then decid¬ ed that he vvas making very little progress by clinging to shipping, so he secured a posi¬ tion as' timekeeper vvith the Kundtz Co., and remained in their employ for a year. In 1917 he obtained vvork vvith “Clevelandska Amerika” as lin- otype operator and in 1918 vvith the establishment of the Enako¬ pravnost he continued in the same position vvith them. It vvas about this time that he started on a rapid climb to heigihts undreamed of. In the evening he attended high school at the Cleveland Prepara- tory School and also the Cleve¬ land Lavv School, so that for 4 years his evenings vvere entirely devoted to the acquisition of knovvledge.' x In 1919 a vacancy presented itself in the Office of editor, so he vvas seleeted to fill the gap and since then the paper has made broad strides in a forvvard direction.

Are Slovenes the Riffraff of Nationalities? It would be logical for a group of people distinct in language and constituents of every polyglot population to repudiate rather vociferously if any statement were raade eharging them with being the refuse or rubbish of nationalities. Although no people will admit being the trash of nationalities, it must be admitted that there is a scale in society by which each group receives its station, aecorded it by its, behavior in the commimity.

Each nationality would wagcr that it is ,. c prescllt and future ol the most contributive to the vvelfare of the commumty | the town w h ere j n the Doctor is and that it dešerves an upper rung in the social ladder. Inasmuch as an open discussion of this intricate subject would produce a lot of strife and illfeeling and never settle anything definitely, it is wiser not to make a place- ment of nationalities in their respective social categories, publicly. It must also be remembered that we are treating this subject collectively and that it is not our purpose to elevate or degrade the work of the individual. It is not our contention that the Slo vene artisan is superior to the artisans of other nationalities. In so far as art is concern- ed, personal opinion after ali is the only real gauge. The classification of nationalities, hovvever, according to their observance of the moral code, the ethics of clean livlng and good citizenship brings out simple facts which requires no delicate measuremer.t of personal opinion. The grading of a group as good or bad is therefore deter- practicing. ■ A farni)*/ phvsicnm is also sbmewhat a father-con- fessor to the people he helps. He ministers to their souls as well as to their bodies. In this book one is shown an' excellent picture of tfie souls of the people whom the Doctor attends, end this picture is given through his own eyes. For readers of Philosophy F. F. England’s book, “Kant’s Conception of God” and Walter Lippmann’s “Preface to Morals \vill prove to be fine reading. the universe yvas on it’s side. Walter Lippmann goes back to Greece and Aristophanes foi his argument and then applies it to the very modern world ol thcught “Wihirl is King, having iriveii out Zeus.” Now, it seems that again “Whirl is Kmg” having driven out a mediaeve! conception of God. This book deals with today and today’s !ack of any philosophy which the present generation can accept without question. In the “Middle Ages” the people were ready to accept a religion that would quiet their fears in regard to the f ut ure now \ve have out- grown that religion and we are again seeking. If there is no hope in the future of what use striving for anything better Doctor England’s book deals with the problems in philoso- phy with which Kant had to deal, his time, and the religious is so say the youngsters • of to- day.

The Slovenes, it is gratifying to state, are not notor- iously famous but are on the other hand recognized as peace loving and law-abiding citizens. City officials, in good faith and not flattery, have often commended our people for their obedience to law and order. They are not rebellious and do not share in the crimes. No out- Kant is called by historians the father of modern philosophy. Ali philosophy before his time is considered ancient and med- iaeval. He contends that the idea of duty to the state and one’s fellow beings would never have arisen in a chaotic world unless It is this uncertainty of the future that is responsible for the conclusions of the present. The Greeks accepted the fact that “Man is born to fail ulti¬ mate^,” therefore they strove to excel in the present. Hugih Walpole repeated Greek philo- sophy when he said “It isn’t life so much that matters but the * cour-age we bring to it.” If to day, we could realize that, there is some Supreme Being who takes čare of the future and accept fortitude in the plače of a wofn out religion, there would be some-satisfaction in the re- alization that we have put up a good fight andused every weapon at our command for the strnggle. Walter Lippman sug- gests some very handy weap- ons. For any one who falls under the charm of Somerset The newest business racket, and incidentally one of the most successful, is the Tom Thumb golf course. It has taken the country like wildfire. Millions of fans are spending from 15 to 30 ceniš each to putt (there is 10 driving in this game) a colored golf bali over cottonseed t'airways and greens. That it is a profitable bus¬ iness for its promoters is attest- ed by the fact that the game can be played night and day, seven days a week, over a course that represents an out- ! ay of only from $2,000 to $5,- 000. In the big cities miniature courses make as much as $350 a day. But in bad locations some are losing. The new type of putting green is patented by Robert McCart Ir. and Albert S. Valdespino of El Paso, and Thomas M. Fair> bairn of Tlahualilo, Mexico. In fact, in New Jersey a federal judge ga ve a promoter a perma- nene injunction against a rival eoncern from using this system. This new million dollar bus¬ iness was inspired by dislike by our Southwestern desert golf- ers for the sand courses, says the magazine “Sales Manage¬ ment”. The men named deve- 'oped the patented greens to de- feat the sand ones. This author- ity goes on to explain: The “greens” were made of cottonseed hulls, with binder. Cottonseed ihulls in the South compare in value much to saw- dust in the lumber miliš. But they v car we'l and are resilient, likewise fiber clinging to them makes putting a delight. Too, they can be dyed green to please the aesthetic, or purple or any- thing. M. -'•> To ' ^1 installed a golf c oul - Se harmlessly insane tv,, demonstrating the utiRt ^ game.

He laid out a wee Iinks and his guests fell for the idea amaz- ingly. And because sand greens or clay greens were an abomin- ation and a despair of souls, he experimented with the cotton¬ seed greens whieh had come out of the desert. The thing went over big. So pretty soon the National Pipe Products Corporation, ol Rochester, Pennsylvania, got hold of the business, called the idea “Tom Thumb Golf,” and anyone anywhere ougiht to kno\V what happened. Almost every town in the country of 5,000 in- habitans and up . either has a Tom Thumb course or is in la- bor borning one. A hick town today is one that has no Tom Tihumb golf course.

Sltort Mistoa*y ©f Sl©** veiae Literat tare By F. T. SUHADOLNIK When the first bound edition appeared in the first week cf May 1830 several hundred copies were sold before the close of the week. Soon after it was neces- sary to make another printing' of the same edition. The edition was bought by the clerks of offices, educ- ated townsfolk, .students of the college at Ljubljana and priests. 4 The Younger generation. Cbelica and the Alpha- betical War. While to the beginners of the Romantic movement in Slovenia the prime interest was the knowledge con- tained in literature and the Science of lexieography and language study, the younger generation of liter- ary men, who have made their appearance at the end of twenty years of the Romance movement (about 1820) have made their prime interest the study and the writing of Poetry. The first evidence of the newer interest in the Ro¬ mance movement showed itself when several young priests, John Cigler, Ignatius Holzapfel and Xavier Andrioili wanted to add a literary supplement “Sla- vinja” to the “Liabacher Zeitung” beginning with the New Year in 1825. The president of the Police depart- ment at Vienna, Baron Sedlnitzky, would not give the neccesary permission to the promoters of the idea, because he did not trust their purpose. The permission was refused on the basis of the report of Bishop Al. Wolf who said a Slovenc nevvspaper was unnec- essary. Five years later the “Kranjska Zhbeiiza” fnade its first appearance. The “Cbelica” was a annual pu- blication devoted to poetry. The first edition appeared in the spring of 1830 in a six~hundred edition. Three other annual numbers foliowed. It was purpose of the “Cbelica” to lay a foundation for the new Slovene poem and at the same time to show the beau-ty of the Slovene National poetry. Pri- marily it was intended for the literati of Slovenia to whom it wanted to show the beauty of the Sloveije and to awaken in them an active interest in the ad- vancement of Slovene poetry. In this manner it aimed to lift the level of Slovene above the lingual necessity of the average Slovene peasant who was versed well enough in the language of the practical books that were published under the patronage of Maria Theresa many years before. Unique, as it may seem, they, for whom the “Cbelica” was intended, accepted it on those terms and became enthusiastic for the principles and the aims which it advocated. Success in one way brought attack on the other. Kopitar who accepted and advocated the Serbian national Poetry as the ideal of ali Slav poetry object- ed to the poetical forms of the contributers of the “Cbelica” and his pet grieve was the poetical works of Dr. France Prešern who certainly did not measure up to Kopitar’s ideal. On the other hand the Jansenists did not like the content of the love sonnets of Prešern and condemned them as scandalous. V/hatever in¬ fluence they had with the censors they used to the utmost extent. The censor of books at Ljubljana, Pav¬ šek was very much inclined to the dictum of the Jan¬ senists while at Vienna the chief censor of Slovene books was Kopitar. HovVever in spite of ali the object- ions that have been raised by Pavšek and Kopitar were overruled by the fact that the influencial Baron Schmitburg, then the governor of Hliria, was inclined to favor the literary efforts of the Slovenes in his pro¬ vince. The first two annual publications \Ver e censor- ed in Vienna with the third edition the “Cbelica” was censored in Ljubljana by Matthev/ čop. The real battle began v?ith the publication of čop’s German tran- slation of Celakovski criticism of the “Cbelica” in whieh Prešern is highly praised for the Sonnet “Por- ridge”. To the favorable criticism čop added his attack on Meteleica and a recommendation that the Bohemian method of Avriting the sounds about Avhich the violent dispute raged, be adopted. AH of the Jansenists who Avere strong advocates of Meteleica felt the sting of the counterattack of čop field they extended the criticism to mean an attack on the preisthood. Kopitar felt that the attack was direeted against him perso'nally. The Advocated of Me¬ teleica countered v?ith an attack on the “Cbelica” and the scandelous poetry it published adding to the attack a clever defense of Meteleica. Polemics Avere at high fever to the end that Avhen the smoke sereen passed av?ay the adherents of Meteleica Avere defeated and the system Avas forbidden to be taught in the school much to the chagrin of its defenders. The defeat rankled in tlfe Avounds of the battle searred Jansenists and by might or right they were determined to stop the publication of the “Cbelica” Avhose fourth annual edition was in the hands of the censor at that time. The governor gave his imprimatur on the recomendation of the Ljubljana censor čop. The imprimatur Avas not in the hands of the publishers yet Avhen a lehgthy criticism against the immoral (!) AVritirags of Prešern, who according to the critic Avas the most immoral person, and against the translation of Burger’s “Der Kaiser und der Abt” came to Vienna. Pavšek insisted on a new criticism of the Fourth ed¬ ition of the Cbelica and the jail for čop. The governor also received a protest from Bishop Wolf, who Avas told that the edition was an attack on the Priesthood. Kopitar the censor of books in Vienna supported the recommendations of Pavšek and iabeled Prešern as a willing immoral person while čop he denounced as.an unloyal editor. Kopitar in his criticism went too far. It was plain that his criticism v?as intended venom for the hurts that>he sustained in the battle. So evident v/as the attack that the governor became disgusted Avith him and gave him an official reprimand. The manuseript of the fourth edition of the Cbelica went 1-ack to the Ljubljana censor Avith proper recom- mendatiens.

Pioneers Battle ‘Croatian Youth’ On Sunclay afternoon August 3rd, the Pioneers, local Inter - lodge league indoor team will meet the “Špirit of Croatian Yoilth” of McKees Rocks, Pa. in the first game of a series which will culminate in Pit¬ tsburgh on Labor Day to decide the championship of the Croa- tia-n Fraternal Union. The game will be played in Gordon Park grounds No. 5 starting at 3 P. M.' This vvifl mark the first time that any inter - sectional game has been played betvveen En- glish Speaking branches of the CFU and perhaps the first time in 1 o ca 1 sandlot history that an Indoor team has played a so- called “Mush Bali team”. v The playing rules are slightly dif- ferent in the two leagues but they both follow the same ge¬ neral form of play. Much in- terest is manifest in the game locally, and many are the opi- nions as to the outeome. The teams taken as a whole are pretty evenly matched. The McKees Rocks team is now leading the Pittsburgh CFU Mush bali league with 6 wins and 2 defeats, while the Pione¬ ers are strong contenders in the Inter-lodge league with 5 wins and 2 defeats. The Pioneers though from ali reports would be considered to have the edge in at least one department and that in the pitching. Frank Ma- kovic well known local hurler draws the assignment to pitch for the Pioneers and in ali pro- bability he will be opposed by Rudy Staiduhar the ace of the Pittsburgh league. Many visitors from Eastern Pennsylvania, New York and Ohio are expected at the game vdth the possibilities of repre- sentation from lodges in Chi¬ cago and Detroit. Cleveland Takes Lead in SDZ.
