IP SliukcReare could find sennon.s in titones there seems no good
reason why mi editorial couldn't lie f'mnid in Al Jolson, Particu
larly as th black face comedian, at tho Pauii last nijjht rave every
thing he had and included a little scrnioni'tle on stage struck girls and
hooch hounds in addition.
01' course a professional comedian, is handicapped as a efirmi'i'.
For people are afraid to take him seriously. They look for a joke in
everylhinjr. And rather than lie sold, they lauch when there is noth
ing to laugh at. .Moreover it is human nature always to look for a
press agent nigger in the wood pile. y-
Nevertheless we have it on no less an authority, tlum a distinguish
ed iiieinhi-r of his company, that Al meant just what he'said about
stage struck girls and moonshine., lie wouldn't mind if all the booze
were at the bottom of the sea, and that ilip about being a deep sen
diver, was merely handed out, because Jolson is an artist, and refuses
to step out of his character. '
t ;
To the dismay of all these sophisticated wiseacres, who are so
much on the inside. we herewith accept this statement as essentially
correct. With very few exceptions, the men and women at the top
of their profession on the stage or off it. have long since detected
the folly, in fact the impossibility, of mixing their work with alco
hol, or singing it on the primrose path.
For the basis of success is physical condition. When all is said
and done genus is not genius without hard work. And those credulous
people who see a man like Al Jolson pile up the laughs, and say it is
easy money arc not only mistaken but ignorant. The result is easy,
the combination of native skill and persistent industry, that brings
that, result is not easy at all.
,
As Al Jolson said its a tough life. There is a glamour before the
footlights, behind il there is no glamour at all. The first, step is
dijudgery, I he last step may be faille, but it is fame which has been
paid for. ' '
St it funs all through the gamut of human endeavor. What wo
call morality is not a matter of golden texts and human inhibitions,
bill li matter of common sense, of enlightened self interest. The wages
of sin may not be death, but they are so' frequently fnilure( that the
except ion only establishes the rule. we repeat, if Shakespeare
could find sermons in stones, there is no reason why, with the spring
fever all about us, an editorial can't be found in Al Jolson. ;

LOOKING FOR IT.
TIIH man who always looks for grief is surp to find the goods
he seeks; his search is, preud venture, brief, or it may last: for
seven weeks. Hut when he finds his grief he's prone to wish he'd
sought for other things, and he puts up a hitter groan, the while
the Wise Man smiles and sings. The man who doesn't pay diis
bills hunts grief, and he will run it down; the course he follows
always kills a fellow's standing in the town. And when he runs
for county clerk, or tries to follow other plans, his creditors gttt
in their work and he is with the also runs. The scandal monger's
hunting woe, nnd-he is (dose upon its heels;' some ugly tale! lit
whispers low will ntaeh Ihc man with whom it deals. Then there
will he a scene of frightful violence, the moon' beneath ; Mr.
Seandalman will lean against n' fence and spit out teeth. If grief's
invited io your home, it's sure to come, with its valise, and it will
furrow your old dome, and never give you any peace. It's bet
ter far to hunt for joy, and ask it'to your cheap abode; say kindly
things and don't annoy the other jays along tho road. I5e honest
as the day is long and earn the kopecks in your purse; then life
will be a grand sweet song, a chorus after every verse.
