•THE BUBBLE”
In the present day agitation over
blue sky artists and Tea Pot Dome
investigations, the lesson wihch is de.
lightfully and entertainingly pre­
sented in Edwin Locke’s great play,
“The Bubble” will dig deep into the
experiences of many who have en­
countered the oily promoter or stock
salesman. The play, which the New
tried and tested comedy that cannot
fail” is to be presented at the Chau­
tauqua the second night of the pro­
gram by the well known Eliaa Day
players.
Boiled down and served captivat­
ing style in this famous three act
play are the necesaary elements of
the girl, the modest hero, the deep
dyed villian with the get-rich-scheme
the gullible old folks, the escapee
from ruin, and, of course, the love
story. But the old plot is given a
turn that causes it to “thicken” in
an entirely new way. Louis Mann
selected “The Bubble” as a vehicle
in which t star and it became one of
his greatest triumphs.
The wily stock promoter, who is
the outstanding figures in this pro­
duction. is said to be so realistic and
clever that he makes those afflicted
with the virus of ambition want to
buy stock themselves.
Those who
have dallied with the tempting of­
fers eff such artists wll recognise in
him the personification of the temp-
tor who paints glowing pictures of
easy money. The hero is a wise boy
reporter, who brings about
many convulsing situations in hip

KTD LIKE nothing better," Rust said
A to me when we were boys a good
many years ago, “than to be able to
run a farm of my own; I know I could
make money," and he launched Into
a narrative of detail in an endeavor
to provs to me just what, In such s
case, be was sure he could accom­
plish. Even with my boyish Inexpe­
rience. I felt that Rust’s plans were
chimerical, and I entertained the grav
est doubts as to his being able to carry
them out if be were given the chance.
He has had a farm to manage, lo!
these years, but he Is still a poor man
It is a valuable asset, and a rare
one, I sometimes think, for a man to
be able adequately and justly to es­
timate his own strength and his own
weakness, to know what he can do
best, and to know also, what his limi­
tations are.
A wise old man whom I once knew
used to say in speaking of the some­
what difficult and treacherous game of
poker with which he had considerable
practice, “if a man does not know the
csrds, he ought not to play the
game." 1 am sure that many men
whom I have observed in the game
of life have had a very faulty ap­
preciation of the value of the cards
which they were holding In their
hands, and sometimes threw away
their ace and were disappointed when
they did not take the trick with a
two-spot.
When I was engaged In the teaching
of composition and an eager boy came
to me at the beginning of the semes­
ter with the statement, "I know I am
going to manage your course all right,
because composition has always been
iny easiest subject," I knew almost
to a certainty that I had struck a
man who could not spell, who had no
knowledge of even the elements of
grammar, and whose literary possibili­
ties were pretty hopeless.
Powers was a good Illustration of the
man who did not know himself. He
was sn unusually dramatic and mag­
netic speaker; he had an excellent
brain, good training, and an attractive
physique. He was deeply and sincere­
ly religious and possessed one of the
most winning personalities I have ever
known. As a preacher he could have
tied any crowd at his feet. He was
obsessed, however, with the idea of be­
ing a business man; yet every busi­
ness which he touched collapsed un­
der his hand. He began life with a
modest fortune, but at fifty It was
gone; be had sunk It all In first one
visionary scheme and then another;
but he still kept on, convinced that
ultimately be would make his fortune.
There are reasons, I have no doubt,
why few of us know ourselves leas
veil than we should. We all hate
-rltlcism; we take advice unwillingly. I
We attempt the things that we want
»ery much to be able to do without
-onstderlng seriously how well fitted
we are for the accomplishment of
hese things. We listen to the fiat-
terer with a more willing ear than
io the candid friend who sometimes
tot very kindly points out te us the
aults we are loath to admit.
