...such psychological principles are valid for the office worker they must be true in other walks of life. The first of these principles has long been known in the laboring classes. The building trades are especially enlightened on this subject and it is the exception to find a bricklayer or mason who does not religiously observe the practice of frequent rest periods. As for the sympathetic audience perhaps the foreman could be drafted into the service and occasionally hold a confidential little tete-a-tete with the more forlorn workers under him. If Tony smashes his thumb under a sledge...

...main objections to the orthodox system of education are directed against the institutions of lectures and recitations. The arguments he advances against these institutions, as well as the advantages he claims for the conference system, must be largely conceded as valid. But he fails to consider the merits of the institutions he condemns and the defects of that which he advocates. The most obvious advantages of the lecture system are the inspiration to be gained from a well-delivered address and the helpful organization of collateral work. The recitation system, with all its "court-room" associations, has still been found...

...keep her daughter from getting married pending her own nuptials. The substance of this vaudeville skit is slim but Playwright Novello patiently works over it until, like the breakfast bacon & eggs, both tales come out about even.

At least, audiences felt they had gotten their money's worth...

...Implacable Hostility." This Soviet view was not concurred in by the German and the Englishman. They plainly regarded it as a mere subterfuge. Holding that the original concession had not been destroyed, and therefore that its arbitration machinery remained valid, they pointed to Article 90. It plainly provides that if one of the disputant parties shall fail to send a representative to the Arbitral Board then a unanimous decision of the Chairman and the representative of the other party shall be binding upon both disputants. This was the unanimous decision of two that the German and the Englishman made last...

Torch Song. Few playwrights excel Kenyon Nicholson (The Barker, Eva the Fifth) in exploiting honkytonk, backstage or carnival scenes. Few producers can put on a better show of this sort than Arthur Hopkins, who directed and helped write Burlesque. A Hopkins-Nicholson collaboration has now resulted in an extraordinarily valid and impressive play called Torch Song...
