Holding Your Horses"

nOLuInk HUT G1VEScS
 HNHERE was once a woman who
 was given to attacks of nervous
 ness. Her discerning husband be- gan to notice that it was always after fit of temper that she had these attacks"
 She was one of the poor unfortu- mates with a bad temper, much impa- tience and not the least idea about self
 As n little girl she probably was al- lowed to bite and kick and stamp her feet at her mother.
 And so, when she grew up, she gave in and indulged in fits of rage which left her white and shaken and fearful.
 That woman actually did make her self sick every time she indulged in a temper spasm."
 First, she would have headache.
 Then she would say that she was not hungry.
 E So she would miss q meal and deprive her body of the nourishment it needed.
 She might even go to bed and pass sleepless night, entirely because she had flown into rage and disturbed the delicate nerve mechanism of her body, which is more finely constructed than the delicate mechanism of a watch.
 Loss of sleep, irregular meals, are primary causes of indigestion,
 Accordingly, the woman began to suffer from indigestion. She had to see a doctor several times and even- tually went on diet" Then she be- gan to think that she was eligible to the invalid world and became, in very truth, woman who was always com plaining of nerves and indigestion and pains here and there and insomnia and so forth.
 Wrich was extremely difficult for her husband who had to provide extra money for delicacies, doctors bills and sea voyages to improve her health.
 This little legend is not exaggerated.
 Bad temper causes much of the ill ness that the flesh is heir to.
 The normal functions of the body are disturbed by fits of rage and exhibi- tions of temper, while the losses sus- tained by ene's dignity and the sacrifice of one's self-respect, after indulging> in a tantrum, are far from negligible.
 Noted physiciansN insist that even tempered people live longer than the nasty tempered ones who are always flying into a rage over fancied wrongs
 Ones temper, uncontrolled, becomes stamping, raging, maniacal thing of which one should be ashamed. Like wild horses, rage and temper stamp rough-shod over one's self-respect and peace of mind. And eventually ill

A n aeroplane pilot beats Mex
IA lean bandit at the love game.
III While this proceeding is
going on. a real live aeroplaae
crashes into a hut. or whatever
they live in in Mexico.
A Mexican girl who does not want
to marry a Mexican thinks that some
God sent the white man to her for
husband.
Why should a white man drop
from the clouds in his aeroplale and
come crashing into a hut, if it wasn't
to fall in love with a Mexican vamp?
That's the idea around which Paul
Dickey and Charles w. Goddard
have built a comedy drama, THE
Broken Wing" now on view at The
Murat.
The Murat Players and others con-
cerned handle the aeroplane crash in
fine style. It looks and sounds like
the real article. 1t is no easy job,
from a stage managers viewpoint,
to cause an aeroplane to crash
through the roof and the walls of q
hut, even if the hut is located in
Mexico.
The aeroplane crash happens in
the first act and then for three acts
a hashy Mexican general, head of a
gang of bandits, and the American
aviator wage a battle IF wits. OF
course the Yankee wins and carries
his brown skinned angel back to the
States in his aeroplane.
I doubt if it would be fair to tell
the story Of The Broken Wing"
The less you know about the ending,
the better you are going to like this
play.
George Gaul is cast as a Dragging
Mexican bandit gentleman who in
sists that he marry Inez Villera.
Inez is a little Mexican vamp who in
sists that she marry white man. She

love as a civilized gentleman would.
hut pulls the rough cave man stuff.
Gaul gives his bandit general a sense
of humor. Oh, he looks very grand

Gertrude Gustin gets her big
chance in this show. I knew this
woman could do this sort of thing.
She rises beautifully and easily to
her several big scenes. Quite
triumph for her.
Harold Vermilye has a breezy
Yankee role which fits him well.
Jassamine Newcombe. even in
minor role, dominates every scene in
which she appears. Claude Kimbau
has his triumph this week.
