Green Be the Turf Above Tboo

(Written on the death of Rodman Drakel
Green be the turf above thee.
Friend of my better DAYS.
None knew thee but to love thee.
None named thee but to praise,
Tears fell when thou vert diving
From eyes unused to weep,
And long, where thou art lying.
VIII tears the cold turf keen.
When hearts whose truth was nrovan
Like thine are laid in earth,
Then should a wreath be woven
10 tell the world their worth,
And |, who woke each morrow
To clasp thy hand in mine.
VINO shared thy joy and sorrow.
Whose veal and woe were thine
1t should be mine to braid it
Around thy faded brow:
But I've in vain essayed #
And feel l cannot now.
While memory bids me weep thee
Nor thoughts nor words are free
The grief is fixed too deeply
That mourns a man like thee
-Fitz-Greene Halleck.

Economy as a Fine Art.
the Charleston News and Courier.

From the Charleston News and Courier.
The first principle Of economy, speak
ing from the viewpoint Of the average
person. is to save, but q little reflection
Will convince us that the underlying Sc
cret of this practice is not SO much to
save to know how to save. One can
not hope to successfully economize with
out preparation of some sort, and this
preparation can only come from personal
experience. and sometimes very little per-
sonal experience, for ii does not come
naturally within the province of human
nature to pit oft by the experience of
others. TO the very poor. those who live
from hand to mouth and from day to
day. with no assurance for the future
there can be no such thing as economy,
life itself being too much of a tragedy to
permit OF any niceties of calculation
Among the very rich. who apparently
have no need whatever for its use, we
often find the practice freely indulged in
perhaps from an instructive desire to re-
tain firm hold upon their possessions:
possibly because of the early training
which enabled them to amass their mil
lions. 1t is, however. to the men and
women who occupy that vast middle
ground In life--the boundaries of which
are limtless, its population ever increas-
ing and its resources insufficient-that
the spirit of economy appeals with such
insistent force.

A Desire for Self-Expression.

From Success Magazine.
We hear a great deal of criticism of
the greed of rich men, which keeps
them pushing ahead after they have
more money than they can ever use 10
advantage, but the fact is many # these
men find their reward in the exercise
of their powers. not in amassing money,
and greed plays comparatively small
part in their struggle for conquest.
OF course, this is not true of all rich
men. Many OF them are playing the
game, and keep on playing it. for the
love of accommodating. Their selfishness
and greed have been indulged so long
that they amount to a passion and the
accumuiators oftentimes become money
mad.
But the higher type of maneplays the
game, from start TO finish. for the love
OF achievement; because il satisfies his
sense of duty. of justice: plays it be-
cause it will make him larger. COM

sion for expansion. for growth He plavs
the game for the training il gives for

Glamour of the Theater.
From the Boston Herald.


Is the drama losing its glamour? The
question has lately been raised by 4
dramatic critic. He says that SO mueh
has lately been written about the private
lives Of actors ard actresses and about
the inner workings of the stage that the
theater is ceasing to be mysterious. And
mystery, he declares. invests dramatic
art with it's greatest allure. Without mys-
terry there cannot be complete illusion.
The facts are unquestionably true. In re-
cent years the public has been like ihc
little girl who, from sheer curiosity. tears
her doll TO pieces. Examined CLOSELY the
stage may be found 10 be an even greater
disappointment. The sawduSt itself may
not be real. Perhaps the greatest dam
age has been done by the increasing
prominence of the actor. not as actor
but as social figure. Nowadays actors
are exploited in ways that have no rela-
ton TO their work. They appear as guests
at dinners, receptions and afternoon teas.
