Robert W. Chambers Discovery

Broadway a den of home seekers |
Robert W. Chambers says So In re-
markable interview, the famous nov
elist defends the character Of New
York play girl. He says in part:
sin every age there have always
been the young "play girls" We no
tice her more today. because she is
better dressed, more sure of herself,
more convinced that her way is right
and that play is essential.
But find as / study these young
people that not all is desire for gay
ETY., for personal beauty and comfort
and brightness-the is the old dom
mating impulse to mate. Indeed Of
tea it is the desire for this very thing
that leads these young people to
Broadway; but what they want is q
home, the safe retreat, the man that
belongs to them, the child that needs
them"
There is profound truth in Mr..
Chambers gallant defence, the funda-
mental instinct to love and to mate
Mr.. Chambers has always thoroughly
exemplifed this in his fiction, and
never so well, perhaps, as in bis In
test novel, "The Dark Star" appear
ing in Cosmopolitan Magazine.

1t Can't Be Done.
-s+ss@4-N4-ss

Somebody said that it couldn't be done,
But he with chuckle replied
That maybe it couldn't" but he would be one
Who wouldn't say so till he'd tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of grin
On his face. If he worried. he hid it,
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn't be done, and he did it.
Somebody scoffed; "Oh, you'll never do that.
At least no one ever has done it.
But he took of his coat and took off his hat,
And the first thing he knew he'd begun it,
With lift of the chin and bit of a grin.
If any doubt rose he forbid it;
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn't be done, and he did it.
There are thousands to tell you it cannot be done.
There are thousands to prophesy failure;
There thousands to point out to you one by one
The dangers that wait to assaE you.
But just buckle right in with a bit of grin,
Then take off your coat and go to it.
Just start in to sing as you tackle the thing,
That cannot be done. and you'll do it.
