Dr. Wright Gives Lecture
On Effects Of Literature

Literature had a profound effect on cur ancestors, Dr. Louis
Booker Wright told U Guignol
Theatre audience Tuesday night.
Speaking cn the subject, "Civilizing the American Frontier," in
the fourth session of the Blazer
Lecture Series, the director of the
Folger thakespeare Library in
Washington, said, "The Bible, historical books and the "New England Primer" were the most read
publications by the pioneers."
The librarian pointed out that
piety ard righteousness were the
theme of moist books of that period
between the 16th and 18th centuries. "Children were taught to
fear Hell and damnation by these
hooks, which shrieked of the evils
which might befall a young Turi-ta- n
boy or girl," he said.
"Parents read ' the Bible, not
because they were so religious, but
because they liked to read the
poetry and stories it contained,"
Dr. Wripht emphasized. "It is a
tragedy that we don't read the
Bible today, althoughsu can find
one in almost every house in
America. During the frontier period the Bible was quoted from not
only by preachers, but by politicians," Wright told the audience.
"Abraham Lincoln was one of
the most remembered Bible-quotipoliticians. Lincoln read the
Bible constantly and heard his
mother recite passages from it
while working," he said,
"Indeed, the literary lack that
Ignorance of the Bible today has
brought upon us can not be calcu
