Soul Call - Chapter 1

The Soul Call
By Stephen Leacock

Presented by The Online Stage

The author describes this dramatic episode as "an up-to-date
Piffle-Play - In which a Woman and a Man, both trying to find
themselves, find each other."

He further explains:
A production like this always deals, in one way or another, with "the problem of marriage." Let it be noted that marriage, which used to be a sacrament, became presently a contract, and now a problem. In art and literature it used to constitute the happy ending. Now it's just the bad beginning.
