NOTES AND COMMENTS.

In consequence of the air raids raging at the end of. September the Annual Conversazione, announced for September 30, was wltb the greatest reluctance abandoned. This yearly re-union with the London Ethical Societies, the Positivist Society, and the Rationalist Press Association is very dear to our Society, and it will be a long time before our members get over their disappointment at losing this opportunity of meeting so many old frit:nds. J he greatest pains Wlre taken to acquaint as mallY as possible of the relinquishment of the meeting, but as it was only decided upon at tbe last moment under the stress of the raids of the days immediately prect!din~ it was un Ivoidabk that many were not info, med, and tilt! organisers ?esire to' express their great regret to those who came to the Chapel in 19norance of the decision arrived at.

Members and friends are requested to note that the monthly Soiree for November is cancelled in deference to the present general disinclination to attend evening meetings-only twenty-eight people came to tbe October Soiree.

The following extracts from a letter recently received by our Treasurer from Mr . Robert Young, Kobe, Japan, will be of general interest: "The la~t (annual) report is a somewbat depressing document. It almost seems wIth tbe gradual falling off of members tbat South Place will soon be extinguished as an active force. You will have noticed what was said about a paid organiser, in tbe < Literary Guide.' I do not see how tbat will help matters. My own opinion is that we sbould endeavour to obtain a regular minister, as in the old days, who would be able to devote the greater part of his time to the interests of tbe Society .... I suppose tbat the situation of the Chapel in tbe City to some extent affects tbe membersbip and the attendance, as people who have been coming up to tbe City every day do not ca,re to make the journey again on Sunday. This would suggest tbat it mIght be well ... to build a chapel north or soutb of the Tbames ... always assuming that a nucleus of a congregation could be found. On the other hand the situation of the City Temple does not seem to interfere witb tbe attendance, which points to the conclusion that our Society is suffering from a loss of interest or a defect in organisation. Tbe Society tends to become simply a Sunday Lecture Association without any common bonds of sympathy between tbe members, while tbe lack of any sense of obligation to attend a Sunday service, such as influenced our youth, tends to produce a general waning of interest. Too many people bolding our views seem to believe tbat the battle against superstition is won, and tbat liberty of speech and thought has been finally established."

® ® ® One hunch'cd years ago Wchard Carlile, at the age of 27, was arresled upon

acharge of publishing a blasphemous libel. The eighteen weeks' imprisonment he suffered for this offence marked the beginning of his long and valiant fight for a !ree Press. He spent altogether over nine years of his life In jail on behalf of thiS cause, Our Society, wishing to celebrate his centenary, invited the CO-?peration of the Right Hon. J. M. Robertson, l\I.P., who has consented to dehver a discourse on November II on Richard Cm'lile, and it is hoped that a large congregation will ilssemble ill gratitucle for the work, and in honour of the memory of this pioneer of the liberty of the Press.

QUESTIONS AFFECTING THE SOCIETY. A HISTORICAL INSCRIPTION OUTSIDE THE CIlAPEL.-It has been sug­

gested to the Committee that one of the notice boards might be profitably used for an inscription conveying a brief outline of the Society'S history, and the following is under consideration for that purpose:

SOUTH I LACE ETHICAL SOCIETY derives its origin from a religious body founded in 1793 by the Rev. Elhanan Winchester at Parliament Court Chapel, Artillery Lane, Bishopsgate, and known as " The Philadelphians," or loving brothers.

Under 'Villiam Vidler, the second minister, the Society began to embrace Unitarianism.

W·itliam J ohnson Fox, whose ministry lasted from J8J6 to 1852, travelled' from Unitarianism to non-sectarian Theism. This Chapel was built to accommodate his increasing congregation and the first stone was laid on May 2nd, 1823. The opening service was held on February I, 1824, and the building was dedicated to the duty of free inquiry and the right of religious liberty. Eliza Flower and Sarah Flower Adams wrote and composed many hymns and anthems for the Services, including the well-known hymn "Nearer, my God, to Thee."

Dr. Moncure Daniel Conway began his ministry in 1863, and under his teaching the Society gave up all theological dogma and was re­named the "South Place Religious Society."

Dr. Stanton Coit was appointed in 1888, and the Society was then given its present name.

Dr. Conway resumed his ministry in 1892, finally retiring in 1897. The platform since has been chiefly occupied by the regular lecturers

of the Society, Herbert Burrows, John A. Hobson, M.A., Joseph McCabe, S. K. Ratcliffe, and the Right Hon. J. M. Robertson, M.P.

Some of the earliest free Sunday Concerts were given in this build­ing and the SOCIety itself has held weekly Sunday Concerts every winter since J887.

The object of the Society is "the cultivation of a rational religious sentiment, the study of ethical principles, and the promotion of human welfare, in harmony with advancing knowledge."

An alternative proposal is that a much shorter record, on similar lines, be inscribed on the outside board, while the longer account he hung in the lobb .

TIlE SUNDAY S~;RVICES.-There has been considerable discussion among members and friends for some time past as to whether any changes can advantageously be made in the lUusical portion of the Sunday Services, and a sub·commiltee has recommended that we have a grcakr proportion of hymn tunes that Can eas ily be sung; that in the selection of the hymn; and tunes more attention than hitherto be paid to the singable (if the word can be pardoned) qualities than to the exact appropriateness of the words to the subject of the dis­course, all hough, of course, the lalter cOllsideration Illust on no account be ignored. In this connection it is suggested that members interested might submit lists of tunes likely to further this idea . It is also thought that the number of our anthems might be increased with advantage, the present list being too restricted to admit of much variety.

TRE EDITOR will be glad to receive suggestions on the foregoing matters before the next meeting of the General Committee, the 8th November, and he will also be pleased to publish letters of general interest to the Society on these subjects. It is hoped that this channel of communication between members, and between members and [he Committee will be freely utilised.

Notes on Modern Drama. By c. J. POLLARD.

VI.-" The Interior," Maeterlinck. (Translaled by \\'lLLI ,\~! ARCHIW.)

Static drama, of which Maeterlinck is perhaps the most famous ex­ponent, is tbat form of stage play whicb, although it suggests action and the tense vitality of life, is in itself characterised by immobility. The most extreme example, granting some latitude in the classification, is the performance known as •. tableaux-vivants," which represent stirring inci ­dents in life by means of actors, but witb an entire absence of mo\'ement or speech . This absolute 5t~te of equilibrium, however, excludes them from being considered as drama, in tbe general acceptation of the term. Maeter­linck's play" The hllerior," and se\'eral other similar works of his, exhibit many more essentially dramatic qualities than are possessed by "living­pictures," while their extreme paucity of action gives them the special character which causes them to be classed as examples of the static drama.

Maeterlinck, in choosing this \'ery difficult medium for the presentment of human life, is, perhaps, partly actuated by the pleasure of surmounting obstacles, but more particularly he wishes to proclaim his belief that the material aspects of existence arc of minor significance in comparison with the spirit and feeling that underlie them. In carrying out this intention Maeterlinck raises several important and interesting questions connected not only with the stage, but with psychology and mysticism.

It is claimed by modern mystics that under all outward appearances there is an underlying verity, tbat may be called tbe spirit or soul of the universe. In" The Blue Bird" 1Iaeterlinck carri~s this idea to tbe extent of attributing a soul to ordinary, inanimate objects, and in this play we have presented the soul of bread, the soul of sugar, the soul of water, but without stretching the idea to this extent, it must, I think, be admitted that Maeterlinck has certainly added to the possibilities of tbe stage and done good service to philosophy in emphasising the fact that the scope of materialism and realism can casily be exaggerated . There is a natural tendency in human nature to stress the physical manifestations of life beyond their due lim its. The e\'idence of the senses seems so irrefragable that it is frequently accepted as absolutely authoritative. It is thought that what we touch, or see, or sm"ll, or hear, or taste is unquestionably real, and so it is, within limitations, but there are immaterial factors of great importance which are often oYcrlooked, and Maeterlinck compels our attention in very striking fashion to these more elusive aspects of life. The intangible, the unspoken, the unseen, the unheard, are the actual living forces in his plays, and to giYe dramatic existence to these mystic forces is a remarkable achievement. It is true tl1at the medium of com­munication is the physical senses-it is difficult to postulate other channels of perception-but in a subtle way Maeterlinck makes the audience appreci­ate that, although he makes use of actors and material cenery and so addres es himself to the physical senses of his audience. he is chiefly con­cerned to display elements of life which ha\'e no tangible existence, and he only utilizes material objects, either to symbolise an underlying psycho­logical force, or to facilitate the appeal to the inner \·ision of the spectator.

"The Interior" is a dramatic illustration of the Biblical saying "in the midst of life we are in death." The time covered by the play is the short "interval that elapsed between the occurrence of a disaster and the breaking of the news to the bereaved." The family upon whom tbe blow falls, and in whom we are poignantly interested, are silent personages, they have no speaking part. The scene is an old garden planted with willows; and through the windows of the ground floor of a house at the back the audience can dimly see the family gathered for the evening round the lamp. The father is seated in the chimney corner; the mother, with a child asleep in her arms, is resting and gazing into vacancy; two younger daughters sit smiling at their embroidery.

Unknown to this family at peace approaches Death, the intruder, as Maeterlinck designates it in the title of another play, and the revolution

that the entry of this dread visitor will cause in the inner life of each member of this group, is most vividly indicated in the conversation of an old man and a stranger who are making their way to the house to convey the ill-tidings. By means of the old garden, the willows, the dim light in the room as seen through the windows, the Dutch clock, the various attitudes of the silent personages in the play, Maeterlinck suggests in a subtle, but most effective way, the tense and throbbing atmosphere of feeling that will shortly invade the room, now so tranquil, and apparently secure. Ex­ternally the scene is calm, almost moveless, but Maeterlinck, with con­summate skill, makes the very signs of immobility render more clear the influence and action of the spiritual forces that underlie the outward ap­pearances. The final impression received is that of having lived for a brief, absorbing inte,val in personal intimacy, in close physical and psychological contact, with the stricken family, whom MaeterJinck has so extraordinarily presented. His plays remind the realist in art that concrete facts are only part, and often the least important part, of his subject. In other words, the non-material, the intangible, the unseen, the unheard, are claimed as the ultimate and authoritative factors in life, and it is the operation of these factors that Maeterlinck principally exhibits in his works.

THE SUNDAY SCE-IOOL.

To the Editor ot the MONTBLY LIST. DEAR SIR,-This terrible war is striking at our Society in various ways.

One of its consequences is the unfortunate closing of the Sunday School. As the older members of the Society know, we have carried on this

particular work for many years and it had become a recognised feature of the Society, but for some time now the attendance has fallen off, chiefly, we believe, owing to the fear of air raids.

It is earnestly to be hoped that the continuity which has been broken will at no distant date be restored.

My object in writing is to call the attention of all our members and friends to the importance of the Sunday School, especially with regard to its possibilitie as a feeder to the parent Society. We ought to increase by additions from within as well as from without, and for that reason some of us have laboured to keep the School alive.

I regret to observe that an unfortunate paralysis seems to have fallen upon the Ethical Sunday Schools in London. A few years ago many of the Ethical Societies had flourishing schools, but with one or two excep­tions they have been closed, to the great injury, as I think, of the Ethical Cause. In the country, I believe, they have been more successful for obvious reasons, the chief, of course, being the greater accessibility of the schools to the children. \Ve know what an important part Sunday Schools play in the life of the orthodox hurches, and we ought to profit by their example and take a real live interest in the matter, and do all we can to promote their success.

There is no doubt that the lack of teachers has been a contributory cause of the decay of Ethical Sunday chools. We have also felt the difficulty, but in a Society like ours there ought to be a good supply of persons witb exrerience in te:lcbing- \Vho shollld be willing to fill the gap . The more teachers there are the easier the work becomes, and the sacrifice of personal comfort will be amply compensated for by the fact that in teaching children wc also teach ourselves.

I do hope the Sunday School will be restarted as soon as circumstances permit and that the members of our Society will make a serious effort to forward this good work by bringing their own children, or other children, or in making useful suggestions.

This is emphatically a time when we cannot afford to neglect the children.-Yours sincerely, JOHN HALLAM.
