...people marry? Not-so the Rev. Paul Dresser of Bath, Maine, aroused the National Council of Swedenborgian Ministers, meeting at Cincinnati, last week, by telling them-not solely for the procreation of children.

Mr. Dresser went on to quote Mrs. Margaret Sanger on the race of morons which is threatening our civilization. Said he: ''God only knows, how many hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of children are born every year, of whom it could truthfully be said...
...public eye, it must be particularly distasteful. Of course, we may be thankful that the plot was discovered before any damage was done?except the publicity.

Satan loomed tall as a tower; his eye was a jewel, his voice was thunder. On the stage of the Chicago Auditorium he stood, for the first time this year. He was Feodor Chaliapin, giant Russian basso, appearing in Boito's Mefistofele. Louder than ever boomed the great voice; the mountainous man, lithe for all his bulk, stalked, the incarnation of sinister and engaging evilness upon the boards. In one of his greatest roles he outdid himself. He suited his bones to the music of his throat, executed a physical fugue; in the Brocken scene, he boiled, surged like...
