 r i HE greatest agency that this 
 -*- world has ever known to 
 help suffering humanity is the Red 
 Cross. I paid for this page to en- 
 courage every effort made by the 
 noble, self-sacrificing women of 
 Memphis, whether soliciting ad- 
 vertisements or in the work room, 
 in the home, or in the field. It 
 is for the same grand glorious 
 end, that is, the alleviation of 
 suffering humanity.

 SYNOPSIS. 
 A drama combining the four forms of emotional expres- 
 sion: speaking, singing, dancing and pantomime. An ex- 
 travaganza with no limitations of place, peoples, period 
 or things. 
 Scene 
 
 Grand Hall of the Palace. 
 Orchestra 
 
 Enter the Regent, Dukes, Duchesses, Pages, Etc. 
 Regent: 
 
 "Welcome, most welcome, our honored guests and 
 noble ladies and gentlemen of the realm of Luthania. 
 Whether with us by birthright as sons and daughters 
 of the realm, or come to us through bonds of friend- 
 ship from sister provinces or kingdoms, welcome, and 
 again welcome!" 
 Regent: 
 
 "Would I might declare the welcome as heartfelt 
 from the Prince of Luthania as from myself. The 
 Prince, in whose honor are we all assembled, is self- 
 willed, arrogant, selfish and now declares that dis- 
 pleasure over some petty disappointment may even 
 prevent his appearing upon this august occasion 
 which has been ordered solely in his honor." 
 
 (Dukes and duchesses evidence by gestures and 
 facial expression surprise and resentment.) 
 Enter the Prince of Luthania, personal attendants 
 and the Royal Minstrel. 
 The Prince, continuing conversation with the Royal Min- 
 strel : 
 
 '"I declare unto you, and unto you, worthy Dukes 
 and Duchesses ,1 will no longer be a puppet! If this 
 Fete is held in my honor it shall be ordered to pleas- 
 ure me! Me! The Prince!" 
 Royal Minstrel, placing a hand on the arm of the Prince : 
 "Aye, aye, a Prince, but also an untutored boy! The 
 noblest will, untiitored, may wreck life and all it 
 holds for him who gives it sway. 'Twas this led the 
 youth Phaeton in his mad drive across the firmament 
 in the chariot of Sol." (Turning to the guests, his 
 hand still upon the arm of the Prince) : "Noble guests, 
 I would, in behalf of my Prince, add his welcome to 
 that I am persuaded has already been given by ihe 
 most exalted Regent of the realm, and I beg to recall 
 to your minds that once in a century, or whensoever 
 all auguries agree, Princesses of other kingdoms are 
 invited to Luthania for a joyous Fete, that from these 
 Princesses the Prince may choose a bride. For this 
 occasion and his coming of age are we now assem- 
 bled." 
 Prince, interrupting: 
 
 "Aye, most true, good Minstrel, my one only friend 
 in this assembly" (he looks about upon the gathering, 
 an expression of yearning suddenly showing in his 
 eyes), "most true, but why am I disappointed? Why 
 did not the noble, all-powerful Regent (with a ton-3 
 of sarcasm) see to it that the Princess of Circasia, 
 famed as the most beautiful in all the world, should 
 be present — that she, if no other, should attend my 
 Fete! Why, I ask you, I, the Prince, demand why!" 
 Royal Minstrel: 
 
 "The Prince! The Prince! Give over! What is it 
 to be a Prince ? — what, to be of royal race if not to act 
 the part? So pure and fine let all thine actions be 
 
none can deny of royal race art thou ! Give over this 
 ■whim, he thy 'better, best self. I am clever at pene- 
 trating disguises. 1 have seen through that of the 
 Prince, and 1 will provide a Princess, who is in truth 
 the most beautiful in the world — young and fair, and 
 altogether lovely!" 
 The Regent, interrupting and incredulously sarcastic : 
 
 "A Princess, and in her own right? — most lordly 
 though nameless wanderer, in her own right?" 
 
 The Prince, eagerly: 
 
 "And beautiful — and altogether lovely? — only in 
 dreams have 1 known such an one." 
 
 Regent, sharply: 
 
 "Of what land? — may 1 humbly ask." 
 
 Prince, impatiently : 
 
 "Her name! her name! tell quickly what I would 
 know!" 
 
 Minstrel, glancing towards the Regent : 
 
 "Worshipful Sir, may it please you, we will say, of 
 Nolande, Princess of Nolande! (turning to the 
 Prince), hut what matter her land? — what matter her 
 name ft Among those who love her is she called the 
 'Moon Flower.' Why — hecause, forsooth, a wanderer 
 passing through tropic meadows found a iblossom rare 
 and beautiful which flowered in the moonlight, away 
 from the sunshine of the garden. It was called in 
 that distant country 'The Moon Flower.' A little 
 chdd, a princess in her own right, but far away from 
 her own, in an alien clime, saw and loved it. FroLi 
 that time was she called the 'Moon Flower.' " 
 
 Royal Chamberlain, interrupting, advances and proclaims : 
 ' ' The Royal guests have entered the palace ! ' ' 
 
 Orchestra: 
 
 (The golden doors are thrown open and a gorgeous 
 group enters as he adds) : 
 
 "The most royal Princess of Albion! her Herald, En- 
 voy and attendants!" 
 
 (The Herald carries a wand tipped with a rose, 
 kneels before the Prince, salutes the assembled com- 
 pany and dances away, being joined iby the attend- 
 ants. These are beautiful young girls whose roibea 
 are diaphanous and in pastel shades. The insignia of 
 their Princess is the rose, her costume is garnished 
 with them and her attendants, with garlands of roses, 
 pass into a wonderful dance, "The Revel of the 
 Roses," while the Princess is being presented to the 
 Prince, Dukes and Duchesses. He treats them with 
 dcant courtesy, but watches as they interpret the 
 revel of the roses.) 
 
 The sun sent bis messengers over the hill* 
 
 To waken the slumbering world, 
 And into a garden fair they dashed 
 
 And the banner of morn unfurled. 
 And the roses, clasped in the arms of night. 
 
 The dwarf and the moss rose, tall. 
 Each wakened and lifted a dew-crowned head 
 
 To welcome the echoing call. 
 
 And the pale pink rose and the yellow said, 
 
 "We'll win the first kiss of the sun!" 
 But the red rose answered, " 'Tis mine! 'tis mine! 
 
 Of all I'm the fairest one!" 
 And the moss rose threatened, "I'll thrust my thorns 
 
 If any should rise in my way, 
 I'll lift my lips for the kiss of the king 
 
 When he opens the door of the day!" 
 
 And the roses danced in the wildest delight, 
 
 Each claiming the king's first kiss, 
 They bowed and tossed their petals aloft 
 
 That their fragrance he might not miss. 
 But the blush rose, timidly held aloof

 And smiled on the eager throng, 
 While a nightingale, watching from jasmine tree, 
 Caroled gaily his matin song. 
 
 And the roses, in revelry, claiming each, 
 
 That she was the fairest of all. 
 Caught not the first gleam of the rising run 
 
 And did not answer his call. 
 But the blush rose, modestly standing aloof, 
 
 With her sweet face turned aside, 
 And her lips curled up like a Cupid's 'bow 
 
 With the love that she could not hide, 
 
 Shared not in the revel of pelting leaves, 
 
 Nor the dancing of wild delight, 
 'Twas she that he saw and bending, kissed, 
 
 As he rose in his car of light. 
 
 (Just as they complete their dance and pass to a 
 position on the side of the stage.)

 (Insignia the Lotus. The Princess is presented, 
 leans towards the Prince, holding between her linger 
 tips a lotus blossom. It seems to please his fancy, lie 
 reaches for it, but she, with tantalizing gestures, 
 draws back, is surrounded by her attendants, who 
 circle about her as she sings and they interpret, "The 
 Dream of the Lotus") : 
 
 A truant Mermaid stole away 
 
 From the distant blue, blue sea, 
 And wandered into a wonderful stream 
 
 Where the Sphinx watched constantly. 
 And the Pyramids all reproving stood, 
 
 And frowned in their old, old way 
 And the Mermaid hid in the wonderful stream, 
 
 For she didn't know what to say! 
 
 And a Wizard passed, a Mischievous One, 
 
 And he listened to the Mermaid's sigh, 
 And the Wizard smiled as a Wizard would 
 
 And winked his whimsical eye. 
 Then the Mermaid dozing beneath his spell, 
 
 As a slumbering 'blossom lay, 
 On breast of the stream with petals white, 
 
 Not a word had she to say. 
 
 And the Pyramids all fell fast asleep, 
 
 And the Sphynx, it would not tell, 
 And the dreaming Lotus, still in its heart, 
 
 Bears a secret, the Wizard's spell. 
 
 The Chamberlain announces: 
 
 "The most Royal Princess of Hispania, Envoy and 
 Attendants ! ' ' 
 
 Orchestra. 
 
 (The Princess of Hispania enters with her Royal 
 Envoy, pages and personal attendants, having been 
 preceded by her Herald. The young girls, her at- 
 tendants, are in brilliant costume, and during her 
 presentation, dash into the radiant figures of the Ca- 
 shucha. The historic "Dabimba," is the insignia of 
 their realm and appears in their decorations. This 
 Princess, with each of the others, feels assured that 
 her own glorious appearing and her fascinating 
 retinue, will result in the choice of herself as the 
 bride of the Prince, but he only gazes upon them 
 with a remote interest.) 
 
Chamberlain announces : 
 
 A Noble Daughter of Athens, Herald and Envoy." 
 
 Orchestra. 
 
 (Her insignia is the Violet, her maidens, in Greek 
 gowns, dance in interpretation, "The Vision of the 
 Violet.") 
 
 Chaniuerlain announces: 
 
 ' ' The most royal Princess oi' the Pyrenees, her Envoy 
 and attendants." 
 
 Orchestra. 
 
 (Her attendants are decorated, as is she herself, 
 with lilies — pure white, yellow, tiger lily and deep 
 red. They tell in the marvelous mazes of their dance 
 "the Legend of the Lily." The Prince starts toward 
 them, but changes his mind and turns away.) 
 
 THE LEGI&ND OF TiHE L,lu\ Us interpreted by the dancers). 
 
 A chrysalis dozed in his garden bed 
 
 And dreamed oi the coming day, 
 Ana wondered whatever should b9 his fate — - 
 
 As a poor little chrysalis inay. 
 Then the sun shone over his garden bed 
 
 And whispered, "Come, worm, awake! 
 i l..- uif 13 caning aloud at the door, 
 
 Awake! awake! awake!" 
 
 And the chrysalis crawled from his folding crib 
 
 And looked the bright sun in the face, 
 And cried, "Uh, sun, come help me to rise 
 
 And an upward path to trace!" 
 Then he felt a quiver through all his heart 
 
 And a thrill from his head to his feet, 
 And a throbbing wild as he tried the wings 
 
 That were lifted by zephyrs sweet. 
 As a butterfly, then, with gorgeous wings, 
 
 'He flew o'er the garden fair, 
 And kissed the lips of a lily pale 
 
 That bloomed near a marble stair. 
 And down the stair came a maiden sweet, 
 
 And her eyes were heavenly blue, 
 And a knight in armour met her there. 
 
 But none in her castle knew. 
 
 And the butterfly kissed the lily's lips, 
 
 And the knight he kissed the maid, 
 And the other lilies, watching, smiled 
 
 As the lovers near them strayed. 
 "A wedding there'll be in the Castle Hall, 
 
 And a wedding in Flower Land, 
 
 The knight and the butterfly grooms," they said, 
 
 "And bridesmaids, we will stand " 
 
 . . ) 
 
 But the butterfly flew on his silken wings 
 
 To another garden fair, 
 And left the lily that he had wooed 
 
 By the shining marble stair. 
 And the knight he sailed o'er the shimmering seas. 
 
 To a maiden he had left, 
 And the maid who had smiled from her blue, blue eyes, 
 Was alone, of her Love bereft. 
 
 i 
 
 And the tiger lilies all shook their heads 
 
 And the orange flushed to red, 
 For the lily pale, heart-broken lay, 
 Midst her sorrowing sisters, dead. 
 
 (It is evident that neither the guests nor their di- 
 versions have satisfied the Prince. He is restless and 
 impatient, glancing every moment at the great golden 
 entrance.) 
 
 (Suddenly a clear, resonant voice is heard singintr. 
 The Minstrel advances. The Prince lifts his head, lis- 
 1 ruing, as there comes dancing into the hall, with 
 rhythmic step, a band of little green woodsmen, the 
 bodyguard of the Princess. They carry golden hows 
 and arrows and with laughter and elfish mimicry, 
 form into two lines, leaving an avenue between. 
 The Royal Minstrel passes down this avenue and with 
 grave dignity takes the hand of the Princess, who

 has just appeared. She is petite, her raven locks are 
 crowned with jewels and a cluster of Moon Flowers. 
 These also adorn her robe, which is a shimmering 
 co'bweb tissue, glistening with dew drops. Her face 
 is radiant with the glow of youth and joy. Still sing- 
 ing, she advances mto the hall.) 
 
 (.The Prince steps forward eagerly, stands a mo- 
 ment entranced, bows, and stooping, kisses her hand, 
 leads her to stage center, where she finishes her song, 
 then escorts her to a seat upon the raised divan.) 
 
 Chamberlain proclaims: 
 
 "The Princess of Nolande." 
 
 (The Retinue of the Princess has 'entered the hall, 
 and each member, bowing to the Regent and assem- 
 bled guests, takes a position in the forefront of the 
 stage.) 
 
 (Retinue includes the Lady of Dreams, Mistress 
 Echo, Maid of the Mountain, Priestess of the Valley, 
 the North, South, East and West winds.) 
 
 Regent, advancing: 
 
 "it would appear that the Princess of this unknown 
 land, Nolande, scorns the services of Herald or En- 
 voy. Who then stands to speak in her ibehalf 'I ' ' 
 
 Lady of Dreams: 
 
 "I, most worshipful Sir, I, the Lady of Dreams." 
 
 Regent: 
 
 ' ' Lady of Dreams ! most surprising name, and, also, I 
 take it, of Nolande?" 
 
 Lady of Dreams: 
 
 "Aye, Sir, most august Regent, Nolande, Dut of a 
 truth my kingdom may be said to embrace the entire 
 Universe. 1 claim the whole." 
 
 Regent: 
 
 "Most surprising! and you belong to the retinue oi 
 the Princess?" 
 
 Lady of Dreams: 
 
 ' ' I am her closest friend, her constant companion. I 
 have filled her mind with beautiful dreams, with high 
 imaginings, with all the sweet and joyous visions 
 which are floating on every breeze for those who 
 beckon and welcome them. No dream is more beauti- 
 ful than life may be 1 " 
 
 Regent: 
 
 "Surprising! most surprising!" 
 
 Lady of Dreams : 
 
 "But verily true. Dreams may become realities, real- 
 ities as beautiful as dreams. I mind me of one glori- 
 ous dream of the Future which lies yet concealed in 
 the mystic recesses of Time. It has much eLgrossed 
 us as we wandered upon dim forest paths leading to 
 the heights. A dream in which I saw thrones topple, 
 kingdoms sway and fall, principalities shrink to noth- 
 ingness and heard a mighty chorus of voices, people 's 
 voices, peoples of the whole earth, crying in notes of 
 swelling joy, 'The Chariots of the Lord of Hosts are 
 upon the mountain tops ! One King ! One People ! His 
 people throughout all the earth. ' ' ' 
 
 Regent catches his breath and turns pale. 
 
 "Most surprising! truly most surprising!" 
 
 Lady of Dreams: 
 
 "Only a dream, worshipful sir, only a vision, but 
 stranger than this have come true ! ' ' 
 
 Regent, visibly moved, turns to another standing near, 
 who has entered with the retinue. 
 
 "And, may I ask, do you also come from this strange 
 country?" 
 
Mistress Echo: 
 
 "I? — of a truth, yes — Mistress Echo, toy your leav,, 
 hut I too am known the whole world over. I have 
 kept near to the Princess of Nolande, our fair Moon 
 Flower, and have had my share in her upbringing. 
 Many days 'I have stood upon the hillside to repeat to 
 her the words that curved her beauteous lips, that 
 she might know the message they carried could not 
 be changed. That once spoken, they could not be re- 
 called. 'I have taught her that all of life is little other 
 than our own echo." 
 
 Regent : 
 
 "Most surprising! and you?" — looking upon the next 
 fair face. 
 
 Maid of the Mountain : 
 
 "The mountain mists have colored my robe, a cleft in 
 the mountain side has been my haibitaiton, but my be- 
 loved dwelling place has been the top of the moun- 
 tain, where the sun lingers longest and the shadows 
 may not stay. Tis I have shown our Princess that 
 however the mists may gather, there is ever a place 
 of sunshine on the Heights!" 
 
 Priestess of the Valley: 
 
 "And I, most noble sir, Priestess of the Valley, have 
 taught our Princess to smile upon the humble, lowly, 
 things not to pass unnoticed the dew hanging as 
 jewels on tender moss and grasses. This has been my 
 share in her upbringing." 
 
 Regent: 
 
 "Truly a most surprsing company of instructors!" 
 (Aside), "Scarcely suited, I would take it, to fit their 
 pupil for life at Court ! ' ' 
 
 Lady of Dreams: 
 
 "Pardon, august sir, that your words reached me. I 
 would answer that for the highest Court is she fitted ! 
 high thoughts, high purposes, recitals of high and 
 noble deeds have filled her every moment. So should 
 every soul he trained ! — and these, the four winds of 
 heaven have had their share. Her wondrous voice by 
 them was tutored to speak through finest harmonies 
 of sweet sounds. Listen as the song of the winds, 
 North, South, East and West, swells to a mightv 
 chorus!" 
 
 Orchestra. 
 
 (This quartette sings, then is joined hy voices of 
 others on the stage. The singers sway with the meas- 
 ure, and, as moved hy a single impulse, form a proces- 
 sion. The circuit of the hall has been reached, when) 
 
 Captain of the Royal Guard rushes in, crying : 
 "The Prince! the Regent! danger! fly! fly!" 
 
 (All in confusion. The Prince resigns the Princess 
 to the Royal Minstrel and hastily follows the Captain. 
 Guests fly through various exits. The Prince sudden- 
 ly pauses as a band of outlaws dash into view. The 
 Royal Guard rush to the rescue, but are overpowered 
 and with the Prince are bound and dragged from the 
 stage.)

 SCENE, WOODLAND, CAVERN TO EXTREME LEFT. 
 
 (In the cavern the Prince is seen, chains on ankles 
 and wrists. Group of outlaws leaving with derisive 
 laughter.) 
 
 Leader of Outlaws: 
 
 "Aha ! proud Prince of Duthania ! long have I waited, 
 hut today the old wound, festering here, is healing! 
 (strikes his breast), he assured we meet again!" 
 
 (The Prince rises to his feet with desperate effort, 
 'but sinks hack to the rude seat, where his captors 
 had left him.) 
 
 Prince: 
 
 "Today! yesterday! the same world? — no, no — the 
 same sun? — there is no sun! Yesterday a Prince, to- 
 day a slave! Yesterday a Prince? — ah, no, the thrall 
 of passion, of pride, of selfishness. Today not ac- 
 counted in the world at all, gone like a falling star, a 
 meteor to return no more, no more. Oh. for another 
 day, a day in which truly to live! Oh, God! for an- 
 other day!" 
 
 (A voice is heard singing. He tries to reach the 
 entrance of the cavern. The chains hold him. He 
 hears, hut cannot, see the Princess of Nolande, Lady 
 of Dreams, Mistress Echo, and other members of the 
 retinue as they come down the mountain side. The 
 Princess continues her song and they pass from view. 
 Suddenly the Royal Minstrel emerges from another 
 woodland path, reaches the cavern, starts back in sur- 
 prise, crying) 
 
 Minstrel : 
 
 "The Prince! the Prince, and a captive!" 
 Prince: 
 
 "A Prince yesterday, but not a prince today." 
 
 Minstrel : 
 
 "Not a prince? — then, better still, a man!" 
 
 p rince: 
 
 "Aye, a man, if but permitted to play a man's part!" 
 
 Minstrel, aside: 
 
 "A plot of long brewing, if I mistake not." then to 
 the Prince, "I return to Luthania on the moment. 
 You will remain here. It is better so." 
 
 Prince: 
 
 "And in chains? — my friend, in chains?" 
 
 Minstrel : 
 
 "Aye. but only in appearing." (Takes tools from his 
 pouch and wrenches apart a link in each chain.) "See 
 to it that this be not discovered by the outlaws. I 
 will return so soon as my purpose is accomplished." 
 (Crosses open space in the forest and disappears. 
 Prince, sitting in attitude of dejection, sings or re- 
 cites.) 
 
 There is no gloom in Life's fair room 
 
 If "Love's sun rise! 
 There is no night if shines the light 
 
 From love-lit eyes. 
 
 But if Love's bound by fetters round. 
 
 In prison low, 
 Then deepening gloom fills Life's fair room — 
 
 Ah, well I know! 
 
 Oh, Love, that lives by what Love gives, 
 
 How sad thy fate. 
 When comes no sign and thou must piue 
 
 And hopeless wait! 
 
(Pauses, suddenly struggles to his feet. The song 
 sung by the Princess of Nolande when she entered the 
 palace, is echoing through the forest. He loosens the 
 chains, reaches the entrance of the cavern, stands 
 spellbound. The Princess is coining slowly down the 
 woodland path, he starts toward her, the song dies on 
 her lips, a frightened look comes into her eyes, then 
 an expression of glad surprise as she hastens toward 
 him. He bows humbly, reaching both hands to her, 
 and exclaims) : 
 
 Prince: 
 
 "Oh, fairest, rarest on whom these eyes have rested, 
 oh, bid me hope that were it not for these, these cruel 
 chains, 1 might dare to kneel at your feet a sup- 
 pliant!" 
 
 (She turns away and he continues) ' ' You will not 
 listen to my plea? — You will not wed a prince? — Oh, 
 Fate, evil Pate, that made me a Prince 1" 
 They sing duet. 
 
 (Sounds of approaching footsteps are heard, he 
 cries.) 
 
 Prince: 
 
 "Fly! fly! the outlaws!" 
 
 (She draws closer to him for an instant, toucnes 
 his chains compassionately and stands in the entrance 
 as to bar the intruders. He springs forward implor- 
 ing) : 
 Piince : 
 
 "Fly! Oh, fly! I 'beseech you!" 
 
 CURTAIN. 
 
 SCENE: GRAND HALL OF THE PALACE— ENTER 
 THE PRINCE AND MINSTREL. 
 
 Minstrel: , ^ 
 
 ' ' Welcome, welcome home again, Prince of Lutahnia ! 
 The outlaws and arch traitor are even now prisoners 
 within the Palace grounds!" 
 
 (Enter the Palace Guards with outlaws and Regent 
 in irons.) 
 
 Prince, starting to his feet: 
 
 "The Regent ! the Regent I I should have known him 
 long agol" 
 
 Regent (aside) : 
 
 "I might also have known. Did not the Sibyl de- 
 clare him, the Minstrel, my evd star!" 
 
 Prince, to the Chamberlain: 
 
 "Seek out all our guests, nothing shall be done ia 
 secret. Witnesses were they all to my discomfiture, 
 witnesses shall they be to his undoing!" 
 
 (Chamberlain leaves the Hall and dukes, duchesses, 
 princesses return.) 
 
 Prince: 
 
 "Princesses and nobles, all our gracious guests, I do 
 implore pardon from the largess of your kindly 
 hearts. 1 was a boy, and a misguided boy. I am a 
 man, and so help me God, I will reach the stature of 
 a noble man. Your pardons, each and all!" 
 (All how, smile and manifest satisfaction.) 
 
 Prince: 
 
 "Before you is the one time Regent, Regent no more, 
 and proven a dastardly traitor! Shortly will he re- 
 ceive his deserts. Royal Minstrel, speak for us."

 Minstrel : 
 
 "In the cause of justice will I speak, I, who for so 
 long a time have held my peace." 
 
 (He tears off his disguise, long hood and iron gray 
 heard. The Regent starts visibly, exclaiming aside) 
 
 Regent : 
 
 "Aha! Royal Minstrel indeed!" 
 
 Minstrel : 
 
 "I see that the Regent remembers !" 
 
 Several of the elder Dukes and Duchesses: 
 
 "As do we!" (Smiling in surprise at the Minstrel, 
 one of the dukes comes to his side, grasping his hand 
 warmly.) 
 
 Minstrel, bowing to them : 
 
 "The truth must be told briefly. The Princess Olga, 
 heir to the realm of Luthania, eighteen years agone, 
 wed the Duke of Milan. A little child, a daughter, 
 was born to them. That serpent (motioning towards 
 Regent), plotting for personal aggrandisement, ac- 
 complished the hanishment of the Princess Olga. The 
 Duke of Milan, seeing no seat upon the throne for 
 him basely deserted the Princess and their little child. 
 The Princess sought refuge in a distant castle, where 
 she shortly died. The Regent, hecome so by devilish 
 deeds, placed the next in line on the inrone, a boy 
 whom he has endeavored to make obnoxious to his peo- 
 ple that he might in turn be dispossessed and the Re- 
 gent be declared the king of Luthania. The little child, 
 daughter of the Princess Olga, is before you. The 
 hoy, the Prince, is before you. She, a princess in her 
 own right, though called the Princess of Nolande." 
 (Dukes and Duchesses gaze ahout them in wonder 
 and whisper to each other.) 
 
 Minstrel: 
 
 "But the Princess refuses the royal estate rightly 
 her own, and thus, the Prince, as we have known hira, 
 becomes our rightful lord and master." 
 
 Prince: 
 
 "So royal a gift could come only from a royal donor, 
 and must be considered in a spirit of royal humility. 
 I do now, in the presence of you all, most humbly 
 heseech her, as I have already done in private, when 
 both were ignorant of this unfolding, to become my 
 hride, and so, doubly, the Princess of Luthania. 
 
 (The Princess turns to the Lady of Dreams, evi- 
 dently answering in the negative.) 
 
 Lady of Dreams: 
 
 "Oh, most worshipful company, this noble Princess 
 doth forswear the high estate to which she is called. 
 Thrones may crumble and empires fall, hut this pro- 
 nouncement of her will endures. The intrigues, the 
 falsities, the cruelties of a Court are not for her." 
 
 The Prince: 
 
 "Then neither are they for me — Oh, Princess, relent, 
 here, now, I cast away my crown, my throne, haubles 
 hoth. For you, for my neople, will I live, if need be 
 in humblest obscurity, but with so high a purpose no 
 throne could elevate, no title ennoble. To the nurtur- 
 ing of a glorious brotherhood, the dream of sages 
 and prophets, will I consecrate my powers. Service 
 shall be my watchword, my aspiration." 
 
 (He goes nearer, hut the Princess makes no reply.) 
 
 Lady of Dreams: 
 
 "Oh, Princess, rememher, remember, that fair morn 
 upon the mountain top, when, in a vision I saw the 
 
dawning of a new day when thrones would crumble 
 and kingdoms fall ! Oh, my Princess, be 'obedient unto 
 
 the vision.' Lead Luthania on the upward way into 
 
 the new day! Lead on! lead on!" 
 
 (The Princess takes a step toward the Prince, he 
 clasps her hand, lifts it to his lips rapturously and 
 taking the insignia of Luthania from his breast, ele- 
 vates it and placing it upon her breast, exclaims) 
 
 Prince : 
 
 "In the sight of God and of all peoples! Princess in 
 her own right! Noblest lady of Luthania!" 
 
 Chamberlain : 
 
 "Hear! hear, all ! The Prince of Luthania has chosen 
 his bride! The Princess of Nolande! The marriage 
 will shortly be solemnized, the honorable guests will 
 join us in royal festivities!" 
 
 Orchestra. 
 
 (Rythmic measures are heard, the Prince and Prin- 
 cess lead in a stately dance.) 
 
 Chamberlain announces: 
 
 "Onests! guests! from a distant country, long de- 
 layed in their coming. The Lady Golden Goldenrod, 
 and her envoy!" 
 
 (A clear bugle call is heard). 
 
 (The last step in the dance is being taken. The 
 Ladv of Dreams pauses, eyes and arms suddenly up- 
 lifted, exclaimsl : 
 Ladv of Dreams : 
 
 "The Vision! the Vision! Centuries have swept us 
 by! The dream has come true! Behold! Behold!" 
 
 ''Groups retain positions as in the dance. Enter a 
 tall martial figure, weariner a military cloak, which 
 conceals the costume beneath, following him are two 
 khnki-elad pttendants. one carries a slender srolden 
 staff, tinpert with a rfbininer eagle, the other a buerle. 
 With him enters the Ladv Golden Bod. clad in a loose 
 robe of cloth of cold, the tint of the morning sun- 
 shine cauffht as she passed through the dawn of the 
 upw dav. Thev salute the Prince and his courtiers, 
 then pass to the footlights, the militarv cloak is 
 thrown aside and the national uniform is revealed, 
 the staff is lifted aloft and the Star Spangled Banner 
 rinnles above the head of the Ladv Golden Goldenrod. 
 The sunshine mantle falls from her shoulders, and she 
 stands in the florions robe of which stripes of red 
 and white sween to the floor and the blue bodice of 
 which glows with the stars of the national firma- 
 ment.)

 Twenty Per Cent 
 
 Increase in Wages 
 
 That part of a man's -wag- 
 es that he uses in purchasing table supplies 
 for his family, If there is an increase in the 
 purchasing power of his money that equals 
 twenty per cent an equivalent to a wage in- 
 crease on that portion of his wages is in fact 
 accomplished. 
 
 Every DOLLAR that the 
 
 wage earner or the banker or the capitalist 
 (as they are all on the same footing at a 
 Piggly Wiggly) that is invested procuring 
 food products from a Piggly Wiggly has a 
 twenty per cent greater purchasing power 
 than at any of the old-fashioned ordinary gro- 
 cery stores. 
 
 The Union Carpenter has 
 
 a wage scale in Memphis of 55c per hour. 
 If this same man can go into a Piggly Wiggly 
 and save 55c in five minutes by waiting on 
 himself, it means that he is earning at the 
 rate of $6.60 per hour, therefore, the Piggly 
 Wiggly makes it possible for a man's time 
 to be more than ten times more valuable. 
 
 For the time spent in a 
 
 Piggly Wiggly Store if as much as $2.00 
 worth is purchased the man who thus spends 
 his time if he has a daily wage scale of 55c 
 per hour not only is receiving full Union 
 wages, but he is receiving twelve times the 
 Union wage scale. 
 
 And if a man himself is 
 
 too busy to go to a Piggly Wiggly his wife or 
 his child can so utilize their time as to pro. 
 duce a higher wage scale than the head of 
 the family is able to receive in a regular way 
 doing hard labor. 
 
 Not only is the time of the 
 
 wife or the child or the man himself profit- 
 ably employed while in a Piggly Wiggly, 
 but there is an educational value to such 
 time spent there. Much pleasure on top of 
 these first two considerations is afforded the 
 person who thus utilizes their time. 
 
 It is not expected that 
 
 everybody will see the wisdom of trading 
 with a Piggly Wiggly. Because the Maker 
 of the Universe knew that people would be 
 of different opinions and would live different 
 kinds of lives, there has been provided, as 
 is told In the Bible a "Hell" and a "Heaven." 
 Both of these words start with an "H" but 
 they end differently, so considering that 
 some people are too careless or too indif- 
 ferent that they fail to get to "Heaven" and 
 30 to another place instead, so It is expected 
 that some people will forget to go to a 
 PIGGLY WIGGLY STORE and go to some 
 other place.
