THE AMERICAN,
ellsworth, Me.

Grin and bear it; that's the way,
Make your mind up now to stay
On the job and see it through
That's the only way to do.
Rain or sunshine, look up and smile,
working forward all the while;
Disappointment now and then
Happen to the best of menl
Grim and bear it, that's the way;
Keep youF nerve up every day.
Life is not one round of pleasure,
Pain and grief fill up the measure;
Roses bloom and fade away,
Nothing ever comes to stay;
Heartache only lasts awhile,
Then it's banished by smile.
Smiles at times may disappear,
But enjoy them while they're here,
Grin aud bear it. that's the way:
Trouble only lasts day.
Grin and bear it, buckle in,
Stick right to it till you win;
Let your troubles pile up high.
You can stand them if you try,
Show the world that you can take
All it has of pain and ache,
Scorn or trouble, hate and wrong,
knowing as you go along
Things will tHrn out right some day,
Wait Gods time in His own way!

me, told me where to hang my coat and

the same whenever we have an opportu-

have been apathetic in the face of the
emergency resulting from the unemploy-

President has deemed the situation
serious enough to turn from his anxious
labors in the Peace Conference to make

story of a Society Bud.
The managing editor for William
Harris, Jr., relates what he calls the
story of society bud who didn't bios
som forth on the stage" but it really
ought TO be described as a tale of the
perils that beset an unsophisticateti
young girl who has no idea OF life
except what she can pick UP from Broad
way shows. 1t appears that Mr.. Harris
having imbibed too freely of tea at
Fifth avenue tea party, became reckless
and suggested to a young woman-really
one of the smart set, 1t Is rumored-
that che try her eyes on the stage.
She unnerved Mr.. Harris by accepting
at once. Being game loser, he gave
her "A note to Edwin Maxwell, his stage
director at the Astor Theatre, that
would provide her with a tryout as an
understudy for Mildred in East is
West" and then prepared to flee TO the
hills. But an impudent though innocent
bystander saved him. The girl, after
mastering up courage for a week. and
shivering outside the theatre for half an
hour. was making a determined advance
on the stage door when fresh youth
standing there broke the ice with Hello,
KID Whoosh, That stage career was
just a speck in the distance!
Moral to stage struck girls: Never try
to become a celebrated actress unless
you have George AIDE along to hand out
the back talk.

Reinhardt said that perhaps the
strongest of these plays. which are the
product OF the younger German authors
who have formed a society called

Reinhard Goering. a German physician
living in Switzerland. II was first pub
lished in 1918 and privately given by

almost seem aslf the lines in this play
were expressive Of the thoughts that
motivated the revolutionaries in the re-
volt OF the German fleet in November.
"'Seeschlacht tnaval battle or sea bat

tensity." said Reinhardt. The scene Ia
laid in the gun turret of battleship
going into battle. II is played by seven

aud then begins the terrible dream.
Some are killed, some dying, others go

From the published text 1t would ap-
pear that the keynote of this tragedy Is
the question: why? What is 1t all
for" The men rebel against being

ket' and talk of mutiny.

had asked Prof. Reinhardt what
the influence of the war had been on
pIaywriting and OH the theatres and
their productions. And from what he
told me il would seem that the under
current of revolt against the Existent
is running deep in the younger Ger
man generation IL the new writings
can be taken as a criterion OF what is
in the mind of young Germany.
THE war produced a series OF in
tensely revolutionary plays, chiefly
tragedies" said Reinhardt. Some OF
these were written as far back as
1915. and are interesting also in the
light OF subsequent world events. They
are series put out by playwrights
and authors, the presentation OF which,
however was forbidden by the censor.
