The Show Goes On. For more than 100 years, the name Barrymore has been associated with famous actors. The highly regarded Barrymore clan has contributed many male and female actors to the stage and various members of the family have been handsome leading men, dramatic actresses, or hilarious comedians. The first of the Barrymore family was Maurice Barrymore, who first acted on stage in England using his real name, Herbert Blythe. Blythe immigrated to America in 1875 and changed his name. He then married Georgiana Drew, an actress from a theatrical family. Their first child, Lionel, was born in 1878 and the other children, Ethel and John, followed soon afterward. Perhaps because their parents invested so much time in their work, Maurice and Georgiana's children became accomplished actors also. Those three children became the next generation of Barrymores to act on stage and in films. John Barrymore had two children, Diana, born in 1921 and John Drew Barrymore, born in 1932. Diana and John Drew continued the tradition. The Barrymore dynasty didn't end there, though. John Drew's daughter, Drew Barrymore, was born in 1975, and she is a well-known actress today. Will the dynasty continue? Only time will tell. Bottom left, a portrait of Drew Barrymore in 2007. Top right, a portrait of Ethel Barrymore in 1896.

In this excerpt from "a modest proposal" by jonathan swift, which important issue does the writer deal with using a satirical tone? some persons of a desponding spirit are in great concern about that vast number of poor people, who are aged, diseased, or maimed; and i have been desired to employ my thoughts what course may be taken, to ease the nation of so grievous an incumbrance. but i am not in the least pain upon that matter, because it is very well known, that they are every day dying, and rotting, by cold and famine, and filth, and vermin, as fast as can be reasonably expected. and as to the young labourers, they are now in almost as hopeful a condition. they cannot get work, and consequently pine away from want of nourishment, to a degree, that if at any time they are accidentally hired to common labour, they have not strength to perform it, and thus the country and themselves are happily delivered from the evils to come. a. old, sickly people cannot be hired as laborers because they don't have the physical stamina required for the job. b. old, sickly people and young laborers are useless to the nation because they cannot be productive citizens. c. the economy of the nation is burdened by the poor, the old, and the sickly who survive on charity and handouts. d. the living conditions of the poor and their lack of employment opportunities are serious concerns for the nation. reset next
