Their ideas may be excellent; but here begins the
trouble.
This number ought to be immense says the
author. Eight girls-the Ponies-dressed like
poodle dogs, and the eight showgirls leading them

music you know"
All right, says the Stage Manager making

Then there's scene between the comedian and

It's good little number, and with the eight Ponies

But doesn't it come pretty after the poodle
dog number?"

but they're quite different
Maybe. But how do you suppose you can get
the Ponies to change from poodle dogs to schoolgirls
and boys in three minutes?'
"Why-"
You'll have either to put more dialogue in there

impossible! To change the arrangement would
spoil the continuity of the act And we must have
the Ponies in both numbers"

The authors interpret this to mean that the Stage

Another week and then the makeup of the team
presents this appearance:
STAGE MANAGER
There is nobody else The author heart shat
tered, manuscript tattered, has gone far far away
The composer is engaged in telling to a sympathetic
company at the Lambs or some Broadway chop
house what he thinks of Stage Managers in general
and this in particular. The manager of the mus
cal comedy-the man who furnishes the money for
its productions still by force of circumstances per-
mitted about the theater where rehearsas are being
held; but he is now a chastened spirit and has
learned to speak in whispers.
At the end of the last week of rehearsals the order
of the executive force has changed except that
the name of the Stage Manager may be writ in
even larger letters. But by this time all signs of war
have vanished and the white dove of peace hovers

He Loathes Himself


RUT by this time the Stage Manager has come to
shun himself with all the loathing in his being.
He despises his profession, and he hates the sound
of piano or the sight of dancing foot He has
dyspepsia, his eyes granulated and strabismic
he is footsore, and he scarcely speak above a
whisper.
But he is King! All, yes, he reigns supre1ne He

were steady.
The strike failed to affect the market
today, a bullish factor. but, on the
contrary, It was used as bearish influ-
ence. Reports from Minneapolis claimed
that all flour mills in that city had been
closed down, owing TO the labor troubles,
and these advices caused considerable
selling pressure here late in the day.
Aside from a mild furry In the Decem-
ber delivery at the start, the market was
inclined to be weak. Deliveries OF only

ber but the demand was soon satisfied
and prices again declined on proflt-tak-
ing. Trading In general was quiet. The
range on the December option for the
day was between S1.05s and Sl.069. while
May sold between S1.05s and Sl,06l@
06s, The market closed at almost the
bottom, with December al Sl.O5e and
May at $1.05R@l.o5i.
Despite unsettled weather In the corn
belt, sentiment in corn was bearish all

principal weakening influence. The mar
