...longer for himself. Clemence Dane has clothed this fragile, moving phantasy in verse sometimes remindful of the brassy couplets of Joseph Moncure March's The Wild Party, sometimes of Noel Coward's flip lyrics, never of the stately pentameters of her own Will Shakespeare. The Boy (Stephen Haggard) is lying dead on his pallet when Death comes to take him. The Boy screams defiance, pleads for a chance to come of age among the living. Before Death agrees, centuries pass.

After nine months in their care Mrs. Haggard died. In St. Louis medical experts testified that dallying with the worthless Westaver nostrums had cost her a chance of recovery through proper...
...profits of the 1928-29 Sinclair stockmarket pool. Prairie Oil's William Samuel Fitzpatrick had not been a syndicate member and the pool's manager Arthur Cutten had been able to shed no light on the transaction (TIME, Nov. 20).
