CONTINUOUS PERFORMANCE
Rot the Stage Variety, but One Equally
Fatal and Nearer Rome.

Why is the man 50 sad?
He sits at his Office desk, with his face
bowed upon his hands. Through his half
spread fingers his eyes look out, dull and
Iusterless, upon the piles Of unopened let
tiers before him.
Alas Poverty stares the man IN the
face. He cannot work, for ever ringing in
his ears are sounds strange and weird,
distracting his attenGS9n from his work.
He runs his fingers wildly through his
hair. Bitter tears drop on the polished sur
face Of the desk The man is a victim Of
the continuous performance craze
And vet he is a quiet man, who loves his
wife and never went to a continuous per
Torrance in his lfc. The continuous per
Torrance has come to him-has wrecked
his life and robbed him of the power tc
earn his daily bread.
Here is the programme to which the
man is listening:
