The Patriotic Uprising.During the late war, after our country had joined

in it, the custom of rising whenever the national songwas played became the custom—and a good onefor war time. Is it a custom really essential to thepatriotic instinct in times of peace? Does it proveanything? The following from O. C. Maclntyre'sNew York letters seems to possess more than agrain of sense—and a warning:

A discussion of interest is taking place in Man-hattan as to whether or not theater audiences shouldarise at the rather far-fetched use of the nationalanthem. One incident where "The Star-SpangledBanner" is played took place in history seven yearsbefore the anthem was written. Audiences, it ap-pears, are objecting to the tawdry appeal to this sortof sentimentality. Most of them believe that onlywhere the anthem is played by a military band inproper settings should the audience arise. At aBroadway playhouse recently the situation was err.rphasized when a young man down front failed tostand as the tune was played. Several around himsaid harsh things and one prominent button manu-facturer applied an opprobrious epithet. It devel-oped after the curtain had gone down that the youngman had to be carried to a waiting automobile.Shrapnel had injured his spine and paralyzed hislimbs during the recent war.
