Excerpt from O'keefe's Circuit, an Entertainment in One Scene

Scene. - Office setting with big desk littered with papers and a telephone on it; right of stage, small table with typewriter; left of stage, two or three plain chairs.

(O'Keefe, a showily-dressed man, is seated at desk writing; Maggie, dressed ultra-fashionably, is typing loudly, chewing gum vigorously. Bill, a lazy, comedy character with bright red wig and red socks, is lounging against exit l., reading a newspaper. O'Keefe looks up from his writing, scowls at Bill and bangs his fist on the table. Bill jumps, almost tumbles over, and Maggie looks up languidly, keeping on with her typewriting.)

O'Keefe. Here, boy! What in thunder are you doing to earn your six a week, I'd like to know? All you do is to read the sporting news.

Bill. Oh, no, I'm reading "Hints to Young Mothers."

O'Keefe. I'll mother you, you lazy good-for-nothing! Put that paper down!

Bill (goes to desk). Have a heart, Boss, the Red Sox plays to-day. (Pulls up trousers, shows red socks.)

O'Keefe. You impudent young puppy!

Bill. Have a heart, Boss - lemme off this after?

O'Keefe. Let you off this afternoon? No!

Bill. My grandmother -

O'Keefe. You've lost two grandmothers and three aunts since the series began.
