Baker & Co. ©OLD 50313 \\ SEP -9 1918 The Crowning of Columbia SCENE. — There should he a slightly elevated platform on ivhich is a large chair draped in red, white, and blue. The Heralds blow a bugle call. As the notes cease, the children in the wings sing one verse of " Columbia, the Gem of the Ocean." As they are singing Colum- bia comes in and takes her place in front of the chair. The girls stand at each side of her. When the voices cease, Columbia speaks. Columbia. Through many a weary day and night Have I watched my people struggling, To show us forth in power and might, To aid the weak and uphold right, In every land and nation. And now, to-day, they gather here, With happy song and joyful face To make me queen with gladsome cheer, To give you joy through the coming year, And to the whole world peace. (As Columbia ceases, the Flower Girls enter, hear- ing baskets of flozvers. As they come in they sing to the tune " There's Music in the Air.") We bring these fragrant flowers To the feet of our gracious queen, Which we've picked in the morning hours From the fields and meadows green. 3 . 4 THE CROWNING OF COLUMBIA (Chorus.) Take, oh, take our oft' ring fair, Joy and gladness do we bring, Here we lay our flowers rare, ' And joyous songs do sing. (As the children sing the last two lines of the chorus, they lay their flowers .at Columbia's feet. ) Columbia. Who are you? One Gikl. We are the children of America. We have come with our off'ring, asking you to become our gracious queen. Columbia. But what have you to offer me ? Girl. These flowers are symbols of our gifts. We have picked them from the richest gardens and have woven them into beautiful wreaths to lay at your feet. They have been tended with love and care until they have blossomed richly. Will you not accept our crown? Columbia. Gladly would I accept your gift, but, see, your flowers are already fading. Would my power fade as quickly as your blossoms? / must have an emblem which will be as eternal as the heavens, as mighty as the sea, as changeless as the stars. Go, little ones, carry sun- shine and joy with you, wherever you may go, and my blessing will go with you. (Columbia waves her wand and the children depart, singing the chorus. As the chil- dren pass out four Foresters come in with boivs and arrozus in their hands or carrying small axes.) What is your desire, men of the forest? Forester. Columbia, to-day as we came through the forest we saw men cutting down our beautiful trees. We have watched them grow from small twigs to mighty giants, and as they have increased in size so has our love for them. We have hunted and played in their shade, and when they are gone we will be left without our pleasure-place. Will you not send an edict throughout the land, bidding men to cease their warfare upon our beautiful trees? Do this, and we will make you our queen. See, we are ready to kneel before you and recog- THE CROWNING OF COLUMBIA 5 nizc you as our soverei^ them away quickly, put them from you, and learn to join the mighty army of my people who are working for the right. Clothe yourselves in sackcloth and ashes and pra)^ that you may be forgiven for having such desires in such a time. (They depart in silence, zvlth banners furled at'd heads bozved. As the Pleasure-Seekers pass out the 8 THE CROWNING OF COLUMBIA Ai^imunition-Makers come in, wearing blue caps and overalls, whistling, " Yankee Doodle.") And who are you, oh, men in bkie? Why do you come before me dressed in garments that are everywhere considered the badge of the workingman ? Ammunition-Maker. Columbia, gracious lady of our land, we come to you on this sacred day to offer you our love and devotion. These garments are indeed the badge of the workingman, for that is what we are. We have come direct from the factory to ask you to become our queen. We are working daily amid dangers in order to prepare shot and shell for our soldiers and our allies. If it were not for us, America would soon be defeated and at the mercy of our enemies. Do you not think we de- serve some great reward? Will you not become our queen ? Columbia. Truly you are working under great diffi- culty and in great danger, but still you are in America, protected by guards day and night. You have given up much, but you must give up more before I can be your queen. We recognize the fact that without you defeat would soon come, so we ask you to work even harder for the sake of our great country. Now, go, and learn to give up all for your fellow-men. {As the Ammunition-Makers pass out tvhistling, the Red Cross Workers come in with their knitting in their hands, and carrying knitting bags on their arms. ) Red Cross Worker. Columbia, we come to you with our work in our hands. Daily do we toil to provide warm clothing for the boys who have left us. Every afternoon finds us leaving our homes to go to the Red Cross room to make garments and bandages. Then when we return to our homes our hands are continually busy knitting. Do you not think we deserve some reward for our earnest and patient toil ? Columbia. Truly you should receive some reward for your patient labor. Yesterday you received letters from the boys at the front, thanking you for your gifts. Did i THE CROWNING OF COLUMBIA 9 not your heart swell with joy that you had been able to do this work? Surely that was a reward for your work. However, you still have much to learn. Last spring I called for a band of soldiers. When you found that your brothers were among the number you wept and declared me a hard sovereign. Until you are willing to give up your friends and brothers, nay, even yourselves, should 1 call you, I cannot be your queen. Go again to your work. Toil harder than you have ever before, and let each stitch be one of love and devotion to me, of patient and uncom- plaining self-sacrihce. (As the Red Cross Workers pass out, three girls dressed as Red Cross Nurses and three Soldier Boys come in singing to the chorus tune of " Tramp, tramp, tramp.") All {sing). Here we come, the soldier laddies, And the Red Cross nurses too. And we'll fight and fight and fight For the truth and for the right, For Columbia and our own beloved land. CoLiTMBiA. Welcome, friends. What boon do you desire? Red Cross Nurse. Columbia, we come asking no boon of you. We come to offer ourselves. We have watched you struggling for our land, and we desire to aid you. We are willing to go wherever there is need. Send us to the uttermost parts of the earth and wherever there is sickness or suffering we will gladly go. Asking nothing from you, we give all we can,- — our lives. Soldier. Columbia, we, too, oft'er you our services, nay, even our lives. We will give up pleasures, homes, everything that is dear to us. Will vou not accept our gift? Columbia. You come to me, asking nothing, but giv- ing all. Yon have learned the lesson of unselfishness and self-sacrifice. You have offered the greatest thing a human being can offer, for no man can do more than give 10 THE CROWNING OF COLUMBIA up his life for his country. You ask nothing, but I will give }'ou the greatest reward in my power. You shall make me queen. What crown have you to offer me? Soldier. Columbia, we have no crown for you. Many monarchs have felt their thrones totter and their crowns fall from them. A crown is too unstable to rest upon your noble brow. We offer you what is dearest to us, that which has been proved and has stood the test on many a hard-fought field. Columbia, we offer you our own beloved flag, which stands for truth, honor, and justice. (He hands her the flag which he has unfolded.) Columbia. Dearer to me than all the crowns of the earth is your offering. A crown would rest only on my head, but your banner will enfold me entirely. Strength- ened by its folds may my power become stronger as the months go by until it shall bring the whole world to be- lieve in law and right, while " peace on earth, good will to men " shall be the motto of all. (She winds the flag around her.) (As she finishes speaking, the children come in from the zuings, group themselves around Columbia and sing " The Star Spangled Banner.")

Price, /5 cents FOR COLLEGE THEATRICALS FORTUNE BY LAND AND SEA A Tragi-Comedy in Five Acts By Thomas Heywood and William Rowley Ap acting version arranged for the Annual Theatricals of the Harvard •-Chapter of Delta Upsilon for 1899 By Janet Edmonson IValker Eighteen male, three female characters. Costumes, Elizabethan; scenery, varied, but may easily be dispensed with, the piece being even advantaged by production under the conditions of its period. Intended to serve as a full evening's bill. This is one of the items of a considerable list of the productions of the Harvard Dramatic Club that were to have been announced but that were abandoned as an indirect consequence of the European war. The version offered has been acted with great suc- cess and is entirely competent material for similar experiments by other colleges and schools. The serious interest in drama study that is one of the most conspicuous features of the present educational scheme has originated a demand for acting material of real value, and we are fortu- nate to be able to answer to it with a piece of such high literary and his- trionic merit. ^^.^^^ boards, jo cents per copy CHARACTERS Old Forrest.
