THE COAT OF ARMS

November has a coat of arms,
No kings could grander be;
1t beats the finest specimens
Of ancient heladry.
Upon a SHE'D of pumpkin pie
In hues of brown and gold
Are lozengese of cranberry sauce
And chicken casseroled.
A roasted turkey couchant on
A tablecloth is seen,
With quarterings of potato mashed,
And celery white and green,
And apples red, and pretty girls
The flour for crullers sieving,
And at the tope the legend scrolled
In letters bold, Thanksgiving"
Nina Irving in New York Sun.

has just a touch of orange in its COL

Laura isn't ideal, but she is human,

some people will accuse her Of being
too human. but they, perhaps, have
done just as Incredibly in their own
way as Laura did in hers. Those who
accuse Laura OF weakness have prob

eager to revile her.
There she was. q lonely, emotional
girl, without a penny or q friend, in q
city that takes little note of the
agonies suffered by the destitute and
herself from her old associates. who
lived in a way inharmonious with her
new aspirations. and she was only an
Indifferent actress unable to get q
foothold without q word from some
wealthy patron Of the theater. Nat
urally, that word was not spoken,
and Laura was reduced to despera-
ent girl, because she had never been
trained to look after herself.
I'm sometimes asked why Laura
didn't hunt for some other work.

T AURETTE TAYLOR is so interest
~ ed in her new play. 1.-The National
Anthem" which was presented at the
National Theater last week that when
she was interviewed it was difficult to
make her talk about herself
Il think it is SO wonderful to make
story live on paper" Miss Taylor
said. that the art of acting 1t seems
almost small in comparison. If
had the gift 1 should certainly want
to be playwright"
She admitted, however, that plays
could be made or unmade by the
actors, and said that sometimes she
didn't wonder that it took years and
years Of experience to become a real
artist of the footlights.
There are SO many fine points about
acting" she said. $50 that you do not
'overdo' a part, but learn to stop at
just the right place. And out there
in front of you are hundreds of faces,
hundreds of entirely unrelated intel
lects, which it is your task to focus
on one thing, so that really you have
to be somewhat Of a hypnotist, II
that is possible. My most trying
scene in The National Anthem is the
last, for in it I am supposed to be
