nora. hide the christmas tree carefully, helen. be sure the children do not see it until this evening, when it is dressed. [to the porter, taking out her purse.] how much?

porter. sixpence.

nora. there is a shilling. no, keep the change. [the porter her, and goes out. nora shuts the door. she is laughing to herself, as she takes off her hat and coat. she takes a packet of macaroons from her pocket and eats one or two; then goes cautiously to her husband's door and listens.] yes, he is in. [still humming, she goes to the table on the right.]

helmer [calls out from his room]. is that my little lark twittering out there?

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
