The Bishop Defends Theatrical Amusements In Melbourne
A Melbourne bishop writes in defense of theater as a wholesome Christian amusement. He argues St Paul would not attend heathen theaters but could support well conducted drama in a Christian land. Amusement is essential for youth, and cricket, chess, or spelling bees could be allowed. The bishop seeks to guide drama as a moral aid. CHROMOS are now given to newly weds by ministers, but the practice is not proving successful.
