Early Hardships of Thespls

"Thespis did not always travel in luxur
such as private cars and suites of looms
at fashionable hotels In the old days in
Michigan / remember when Thespis was
very content to go tenting," commented
the venerable theatrical manager. ''It
was before the war, and we conceived that
it would be a fine thing to take spec
tacular piece or the road, very much in
the manner that circus travels now
that is, beneath canvas. So we got our
crude scenery and tent and hired our
company.
Everything went very well at first
The business was good and profits fair,
SO we felt much elated But the God Of
Tragedy was preparing scene for US,
for one night i'll the midst of perform
ance the wind came down upon US with a
howl, the rain fell like a cloudburst, and
the heavenly artillery broke loose over
head We tried to go on with the per-
formance when suddenly a cyclone-like
assault of the wind caused the tent ia
totter, and the next moment do wn il came
upon 700 or 500 people. There we were
struggling under the heavy masses of
canvas III absolute darkness
Fortunate for us was il that the wind
extinguished the lights: else we would
have had the additional horror of a con-
flagration. Those who struggled out first
helped the others. The villagers were kind
and gave us shelter. The supervisors
themselves took care of the black crook
and two imps, while the kind-hearted
ladies gave shelter TO the dripping and
mournfui fairy queen, the disguised ard
despairing princess of the Internal regions,
as well as to all the ladies of the iallet,
whose glory had departed, whose wings
had melted, and whose lovely white dresses
were soiled with mud and torn in many
places. Alas for the vanity of Thespisi How
empty then seemed ali the glitter and gold
and pomp of his reigui How fleeting those
triumphs of pictorial art!
THE next day we repaired to the scene,
mended the tent, and, like gypsies, moved
on-a moIrnful caravan OF Thespis. ~
