Excerpt from The Knitting Girls Count One: A Patriotic Play in One Act

Scene: Mrs. Thayer's living room in Balmville, a small village where conventions prevail. It is a simple, pleasant room, with a good sized round table on which are scattered hooks and magazines; several easy chairs, a comfortable lounge, and a piano. (The piano need not be on stage).

Discovered: Mrs. Thayer, a sweet-faced young woman, is seated by the table, at left of room, knitting a soldier's sock. On the table, near her, is a work-basket, containing another sock, only partly completed. Helen, a brisk, bright young woman, very much up-to-date as to clothes, is erect at one end of the lounge, knitting a soldier's sweater, while at the other end, curled up, with her feet under her, idly observing the other two, is Kathleen, a very pretty, fair-haired girl, dressed like a doll. The center of the stage is open, but there are doors at right and left, and a window wherever convenient. As curtain rises, Helen drops her knitting for one moment, and looks indignantly at Kathleen, who, in abstracted fashion, is playing with the ball of yarn. Helen reaches across the lounge, takes the yarn out of Kathleen's hand, and continues her argument.

Helen. It's not the ability that is lacking in your case, Kathleen. It's the inclination.
