"The Servant in the House" Once in a while Mr Clement wrote poetry for his own amusement but as a rule that verse that was written for amusement found Its way to the pages of magazines The following is a parody on "A Pool There Was" printed In the Ten Story Book several years ago: tos The Other Fool (With apologies to Mr Rud5rard Kip-ling) A fool there was and she made her Even as you and To a selfish corpulent masculine bear We called him the fellow with rooms to spare But she called him her hero beyond compare Even as you end Oh the years we waste and the tears we waste And the meals we have left on hand Awaiting the husband who never comes home And now we know that be wouldn't acme home As long as be could stand A fool there was and her store she Even as you end I Purity youth and the price of the rent Till she'd threaten to leave and then he'd repent When the fool In her heart would grow kind and relent Even as you and I Oh the pain he cost and the gain he For she turned down houses and land To marry a beggar who couldn't come horne And now we know that he wouldn't come home As long as he could stand The fool cried on till her eyes were Even as you and I-- Which he might have seen as she put him to bed But there isn't on record a word that he said She kept up pretense but her anger was dead Even as you and And It irtet the loss and It Isn't the cross meals on hand

before of the forty-eight years in Clay i Clement's life twenty-eight were spent I upon the stage It was a life of auccesses and failures sandwiched through the years a romantic life in which the actor-pla3rwright was rich one day and poor the next but always hopeful always fairly well satisfied with the general scheme of existenee It was in 1382 that he began his careerA in the support of Daniel Bandman For eight years he was with the Bandman forces and then Clement joined John Corelrey who had stock companies in Portland and Seattle Four years as a ending man In a 1 stock company was enough for Clement and then he began to think for write those thoughts Gradually those thoughts were put on paper and when they were finished Clay Clement was the owner of some- thing that was to carry him through many a difficulty and bring crowded: houses In 1890 he finished and produced "The New That wasn't the name then Clement played the production under the character name of Maxon Hohenstauffert" 7he first performance was in the Mcnonough theater in Oakland Cal The play was a success but Clements resources were small so for a whole season "Baron Hohenstauffen" was hauled in one night stands from one little western town to the other while the author and etar waited for the opportunity to leern if the real playgoing world would like it One season became two seasons and two PerPOT19 became three Finally aft- Cr five years the opportunity came end Clement was given a week's book- ing in what le now the Powers theater In Chicago Once more the piece met with overwhelming success and the one week lengthened to-three That was a long run In 185 The future appeared filled with it waent Time was given Mr Clement in the American theater New York The plaudits came end there was appreciation of an Sr- tistic success but the dollars stayed away When the end of the seeson came Mr Clement was back at the starting a dollar Once more things turned for the better It was found that a good buel- nee nesnager was needed and air Clement termed an affilintion with John rienry Martin at that time gen- eral menaTer fnr Charles Hoyt The resnit war thrlt Mr Clement remained in "The
