THE FINAL scENEI IN THE "cHANTEcLER."

Chantecler, the king of the farmyard, is convinced
that his role in life is to make the sun rise with his
Growing. One day, while Chantecler is happy in his
supremacy over all the other birds, the eternal feminine
appears in the form of a hen pheasant chased by a sport
ing dog. Chandeliers heart is won by this beautiful
stranger. The second act opens in the depth of night, with
a group of conspl1ators in the form Of owls, who, equally
convinced that Chandeliers song is the cause CT the
break Of day, determine to kill the author of the hated
daylight, and arrange that a fighting cock shall Stay
Chantecler. Suddenly the "Cocorico' of Chantecler is
heard; the valley, seen through the opening in the for
est, becomes rosy with the light of the rising sun; the
night birds are dispersed and Chantecler and the hen
pheasant appear on the scene. In the next act the
guinea fowl is lat home" in the kitchen garden. Chan
tecler fights with the game cock, and is almost killed,

same toilers had received. A large
part OF the exhibit was the work Of
the child victims Of the sweatshop sys-

of the cheaper grades that was most
conspicuous, but articles made TO meet

hardly more than a baby-is paid per-

seen at the exhibit. 1t is beautiful;
but the system that produces it at this
cost of young life is an abomination.
Hand-sewed mems neckties, intended
to be sold at from so cents to 81 each,
pay the maker 80 cents a dozen. The
ultra-respectable black collar for elder
ly women, retailing for so cents. costs
the vender for making less than ~
cents apiece Is it nothing to those
who buy such things that childlife is
stitched into their seams? The Con-
sumers' League exists to help these in
articulate workers to help themselves.
1t can succeed only by enlisting the
cooperation OF buyers, for whose pro-
lection it has provided a label of in
v~estigation and approval stating that
the garment that bears it is made
under clean and healthful conditions

but, by an accident, is in the end victorious. At that
moment the shadow of a sparrow hawk is thrown over
the whole gathering and they rush to the protecting
wings Of their wounded chief, who crows defiance at
the threatened danger. In the fourth act, The Night
of the Nightingale" Chantecler has wandered into the
forest with his charmer, La Faisane. She is jealous Of
the cocks love of his work. and by a subterfuge, which
keeps him asleep till after the sun has risen, shows
him how idle is his belief that it is only through his
agency that the day is born. Chantecler, however, de-
termines to go back to the farm and pursue his daily
task with the same frmness Of purpose as before. The
golden pheasant is left behind, only to fall into a poach-
er's trap, and to be brought, chastened in spirit, to the
farmyard in subsection to Chantecler. TIE final scene
in the play, which is pronounced the most beautiful, is
here pictured.
