November 11, 1918 had been chosen for the first production of "Le Voile du Bonheur" at the Vieux Coloumbier and thus amid rejoicing for France Premier Clemenceau became known in this country as a playwright. Henceforth he will be to us not only the vigorous old statesman, but the dreamy poet. One wonders if, like the poet of his own creation, he too not be glad to withdraw into himself from the turmoil of the world about him. The "Veil of Happiness" is in one act and is produced in a manner at once decorative, symbolic and deeply moving.
