96 MOTION PICTURE MAGAZINE SCENE FROM AN EDISON DRAMA. EDISON PLAYERS ARE FREQUENTLY REQUIRED TO ENGAGE IN DANGEROUS STRUGGLES FAR UP ON THE TOPS OF SKY-SCRAPERS turers have physicians and surgeons, on salary, who give first aid to the injured and are ready in time of need. When you see the strenuous comedy or the gripping drama, just remember that some one must take chances, and some one must frequently suffer in order to afford you entertainment. The more skillful an actor is, the greater risk he takes. Be charitable ! M M J£ Old Earth's Great Movie By B. R. STEVENS 11 the world's a stage, I oft have read it; I think our blessed sage, Old Shakespeare, said it, Altho it seems the rage To give him credit For every wise old saying. Well, anyway, we know We all are actors; In Earth's Great Daily Show We're moving factors. Smart, stupid, fast or slow, A benefactor's Or a villain's part we're playing. Against a beauteous screen Of cloudless azure Some, in a peaceful scene May take their pleasure. In sordid "set" and mean, To dreary measure. The "masses' " feet are straying. But we must play our part, Or willy-nilly ; Old Fate gave us the start, And, wise or silly, We're bound to draw the cart, Level or hilly, To where the Great Director's staying. Then let us do our best Along the way ; The Author knows the rest Of Life's Great Play. And if we stand the test, Perhaps some day "Well done! well done!" He will be saying.
