Great Law Retormer's Rules for
Living Simply and Wisely and
Reaching a Ripe and Happy
Old Age.

Probably the foremost law reformer
OF modern times was David Dudley
Field, brother of the Field of Atlantic
cable fame and of Justice Stephen ].
Field Of the United States Supreme
Court For forty years of his long
'life-which began in 1905 and ended
eighty-nine years later-he devoted
the greater part of his time to the re-
form Of the law. Today his system of
civil procedure is in force in most of
the states of the Union and is the
basis of the reformed procedure es-
tablished in England in 1873 His in
huence in the law of today is as great
as the influence of his brother Cyrus
in the field of world communication
Mr.. Field was in his seYenty-ninth
year and had just returned from Eng
land, where he had been showered
with distinguished honors by reason
of his work as a law reformer, when
had the pleasure of an informal
chat with him.
The name OF his brother Cyrus
came up. "One of the lessons l have
learned in my long iife," said the
great law reformer, is that it re-
quires more ability to stick to a great
thing than to plan it, This was the
kind c. ability Cyrus showed to best
advantage in the case of the Atlantic
cable. 1t was this sort of ability, and
his ability to keep around him a
group of men into whom he instilled
his own confidence in the ultimate
success of the cable, that really has
brought him his fame. His work in
promoting and perfecting the cable
was of secondary Importance; yet the
public looks upon him largely as the
promoter of the cable, paying no at
tention to the greater side of his
achievement"
mr. Field" / said, 'the ability you
have just attributed to your brother
may also very properly be affirmed
of yourself, for it is universally recog
nized now that your codification of
laws was a stupendous undertaking
and that your persistence in the work
has been regarded by American law
yers as one of the most astonishing
of all professional achievements"

have said reminds me of another les

4. Nj. Palmer's Story of How He
Came to Produce Alabama" In
Desperation to Bridge Over
Crisis.

NO one who has not actually ex-
perienced all the trials and faced all
of the emergencies which are the lot
of a dramatic manager can begin to
realize what a difficult work his is"
once said to me the late A. M. Pal
mer, who for many years was one OF
the most successful dramatic man
ayers of the United States. Under
his management such great plays as
The Bankers Daughter" "The Two
Orphans" Diplomacy" BARLEY
CampbelPs MY Partner" and, later,
the first successful dramatization of
DuMaurier's novel, 'Trilby," were
produced.
Il suppose" continued Mr.. Palmer,
that il / have had better luck in
dealing with actors and actresses and
in meeting and mastering sudden
emergencies than some other dra-
matte managers, it has been due to
the fact that I began my career in
life as a politician, for l was actively
associated for some years with the
Republican party organization Of New
York county, an association. in fact,
which resulted in my partnership ar
rangement with Sheridan Shook. who
was also a very active politician. A
politician. you know. must know how
to handle both people and emergen-
cies.
Shook and I had some very close
calls at the time we were managing
the Union Square Theater at New
York. We were at our wits ends
several times because actors upon
whom we relied had disappointed US.
or because some of them felt that we
had not cast them for parts which
were worthy OF their abilities.
But | think the narrowest squeak
/ ever had was after Mr.. Shook and
had dissolved partnership and when
/ was the sole manager Of theater
in the vicinity of Madison Square,
New York.
II had decided to put on play at
this theater, and, in fact, had partial
" cast the parts when. OF sudden,
the author withdrew the play For
tunately had not announced the
play. But what was / to do, never
theless? / had at hand no play which
had been tried and found satisfactory.
I had, however, in my drawer several
manuscripts of plays. not one OF
which had been. examined In my
desperation / took these manuscripts
for reading to my home in Stamford,
Conn. upon the bare chance that |
might find one of them good enough
to serve as stop gap until ] could
get my bearings again.

author except in a most casual way.
He had no reputation as play
wright l had been told that he had
done some literary work somewhere
in the west l knew, therefore, that
the name of the author would serve
in no way to advertise the play. And
yet this was the only possible chance
had of keeping the theater going
until | could make ready play
which | knew would at least pay for
its production. Therefore, | decided
to put this play on and It went fairly
well at rehearsals. but every expert
enced manager knows that rehearsals
are no criterion of the success of
play
II went to the theater on the night
of the first production. prepared to
announce at the close of the last act
that the play had been withdrawn
But, to my establishment at the end
of the first act saw thai the audi
spce vas disposed to be pleased with
the play. AT the end o. the Second
act l felt certain that the play would
be good for a week or more; and

self, al Palmer, you went 1t blind

play proved to b. a great hit. II was
