groups. Four minutes will be allowed
for the trial. Only parts of some play
may be given, and these preferably
from a play in which the student has
taken part before.
There are an unusually large num

HOW DID YOU DIE?
Did you tackle the trouble that came
came your way
With a resolute heart and cheerful?
Or hide your face from the light of
day
With a craven soul and fearful?
Oh, a trouble's a ton, or a trouble's
an ounce,
Or a trouble is what you make it.
And it isn't the fact that you're hurt
that counts.
But only how did you take it?
You are beaten to earth? Well,
well, what's that?
Come up with a smiling face.
It's nothing against you to fall down
flat.
But to lie there that's disgrace.
The harder you're thrown, why, the
higher yoo bounce;
Be proud of your blackened eye!
It isn't the fact that you're licked
that counts:
It's how did you fight and why?

And though you be done to the

If you battled the best you coult.
If you played your part in the world

Death comes with a crawl, or comes

And whether he's slow or spry,
It isn't the fact that you're dead
