The five little Minks watched her
and wished and wished that they could
do as she did. At last one of them got
courage enough to 60 out where his
feet could not touch bottom. It fright
ened him little and he padded with
all his might, and, of course, he began
to swim. Then he was no longer
afraid. OF course, he didn't 60 far, be-
cause he tired easily, but just as soon
as he was rested he tried 1t again.
Seeing how proud he was and what a
good time he was having, his brothers
and sisters tried 1t, and the t1rst> thing

It was q deep, dark-looking pool,
with an overhanging bank, just such q
pool as trout dearly love. Mrs. Billy
slipped into the water and dived with
hardly ripple to show where she had
gone. The five little Minks sat on the
bank and watched. 1t was very excit-
ing. It seemed to them that their
mother was gone SO long that some-
thing must have happened to her. Sud-
denly her brown head popped above
the water right in the middle Of the
pool, and In her mouth was fat,

The bigger they grew the more fish
they wanted, and needed.

Now, Mrs. Billy is one who believes
firmly that children should be taught
early in life that they must look out
for themselves and do their share as
soon as possible. So just as soon as
she thought the five little Minks were
big enough she took them for a SWIM
ming lesson. It was necessary that
they should know how to swim In
order that they might be able to catch
fish.
So very early one morning she led
them to q very shallow little pool in

wading. 1t was great fun. They
romped and played. They splashed
water over each other. They liked the
water. Their mother showed them
that under or among the stones In the
water were bugs good to eat, and they
had great time hunting for them
When they had grown quite used to
the water Mrs. Billy swan out where
1t was deep enough for swimming. and
began to dive and swim beneath the
surface and have such good time as
only 4. good swimmer can have.

RILLY MINK loves fish, especially
trout. Perhaps I should say he
likes fish, for things We love we never

nothing either of them likes better. So
it would have been very queer. indeed,

fish. They did. They liked them so

After that they went swimming every

the day before. They enjoyed 1t SO

Mrs. Billy led them out as usual, but

He turned them out at the rate of
one week, and that's fast wordage
when it is considered that most first-
rate playwrights regard one play as
full year of work.
THEN he came to Broadway and
started writing . play almost
every month for AL H. Woods to
produce. CWoods produced SO of the
Davis plays.) Turning from such
stock productions, Davis wrote For
the White Rose," meritorious play,
which opened in his native Maine in
1898 and then went on from there
to Rochester. San Francisco, Phila-
delphia, Baltimore and wherever
they thought they could rustic up
few cash customers.
Sometimes they found them, but
Davis was going good now, and went
on from there to write such smash
hits as Nellie, the Beautiful Cloak
Model" THE Great Express Rob-
berry" Convict 999" and Chinatown
Charlie"
The current war in China reminds
him bit of the time when a group
of Chinese Republicans walked into
his Office and offered him $4,000
bonus to write play condemning
the then Chinese empress. He did
and the play, "A Marked Woman"
became one of his most profitable hits
until tong war gangsters stole up
town from New York's Chinatown and
created so much havoc they had to
close the play.
Davis says he has refrained from
Oriental politics since then.
Although I am turning to diff
ferent mood in Let's Never Change
than that found in most of my past
plays, I still have the same theories
about playwriting. think an audi
ence should write the first act, and
the playwright take up from there
and lead them to single, definite
climax and conclusion. There should
be an economy of acting, writing,
direction. Don't overwrite or over
act. An understatement, If written
well. tells far more than an over
statement in ill-chosen words"
