ince of Morgan during reign of
Caesar Augustus Hoover

their harps to soothe the heaving
hearts of Morgan farmers and un
employed. Palm-leaf wavers and
messengers to David mingling in
and out the crowd. to watch the
magic effect of the imported harp
lists: Eek, Dale, Earl Dougan and
Matson.
The boy harpists from Marietta
are playing in various villages and
hamlets on the way to the "Grand
Royal Concert" hoping to cast
spell or charm on their hearers and
follow the pipers like the rats fol-
lowed the Pied Piper, into the
courtyard of Louis. The music so
touched the hearts of the people
that it attracted about one-fourth of
the crowd that Saturday night at
tracts, without the pipers from
Caldwell, Marietta Or McConnels-
vile, and even Jupiter Pluvius
couldn't restrain his feelings, so ef-
fective was the music from the
pipers that he let go flood Of tears
upon the people to scatter them 10
their homes and thus save them an
other hour of agony.
Scene 2
David decides to take his cause
and that Of his king to the people.
He is now known as "Sky Rocket"
David. Upon the appointed time,
the pipers began to play, and the
people are seen coming from all
points to the strains of the Pied
Pipers. Now under complete spell
of the enhancing music, they fol-
low the Pied Pipers to the Chautau-
qua pool, to be drowned in flood of |
oratory. Meanwhile the
court is arranged for the arrival of |
David, with the ladies-in-waiting |
and -in-waiting (for po-
itical jobs). Something goes wrong |
with the plans, perhaps trick of a
henchman of the reigning sovereign |
King George; however, instead of |
