Daily Pras.
The Antics of Bernard Shaw. The war has tampered with many of our most cherished traditions. It has unseated Ger- man philosophy from its proud position, disscoted German origi. nality and found it a sham, die- covered militarism to be synony mous with aggression, and even osused us to have some double as to the genius of Bernard Shaw, the most serious of all to many, for Barnard Shaw was by way of being a religion. It is, of course, parily Mr. Shaw's own fault. The needs of advertisement made it impossible that he should be silent concerning the war, and "the same needs also made it ne
cessary that what he said should te different from what other people said. So Mr. Shaw pro- ceeded to discover that Great Britain was a bit of es bypocrite, and has since bean treading suph a devisus course of argument that people are now beginning to question whether he is a playwright at all, mach less a dramatist. To be quits just to Mr. Shaw, it has to be admitted that he has had many objestors all through his career.
