the top attempted to grasp the bird,
but his majesty was not to be taken
without a struggle, for he stuck his
talons deep into the boys hand, max.

The Oldest Playwright,

Bertha Mann furnished the surprise
of the afternoon recently. says the De-
cember Green Book, when she tried
a highly emotional role in a play
called THE Worth of Man." at q
New York playhouse. A number Of
budding playwrights were presented.
and she was besieged by them to play
the leading part in several plays they
had written. One became insistent,
and partly to satisfy her, Miss Mann
agreed to read the play. 1t proved
to be a theme as old as An and
after the second act Miss Mann aban-
doned the task of further reading.
"You say you created this charac-
ter?" Miss Mann inquired.
THE character and the play are
both original with me-" was the
ready response.
And yet" Miss Mann added ru-
minatively. you don't look two thou
