Слишком Хорошо

(По О'Генри)

Мисс Кэрингтон была известной актрисой. Она начала свою жизнь в маленькой деревушке под названием Крэнберри. Но это было очень давно. Теперь ей предстояло исполнить главную роль в новой комедии.

молодой актер по имени Хайсмит мечтал стать партнером Мисс Кэрингтон в новой пьесе. Он сказал об этом менеджеру. Менеджер объяснил молодому актеру, что если он хочет сыграть эту роль, он должен убедить Мисс Кэрингтон принять его в партнеры.

Молодой актер прекрасно знал, что это роль молодого фермера. На следующий день он отправился в Крэнберри, где пробыл три дня и собрал много информации о жизни и людях этой маленькой деревни. Затем он вернулся из деревни и пошел в один из ресторанов, где обычно собирались актеры после спектакля.

Он увидел небольшую кампанию за столом. Звездой той кампании была Мисс Кэрингтон.

Она заметила, что в ресторан вошел плохо одетый мужчина. Он подошел к знаменитой актрисе, поприветствовал ее и рассказал много интересного о ее родных и друзьях из Крэнберри. То, как он говорил, заставляло ее верить каждому его слову. Она была уверена, что он фермер.

В конце концов он сказал знаменитой актрисе, что ее мать хочет увидеть ее снова перед смертью. Затем он подарил ей розу, которую он взял с куста перед ее домом в Крэнберри.

Мисс Кэрингтон была так тронута, что не могла сдержать слез. Она поблагодарила молодого человека и пригласила его снова увидеться с ней в отеле, прежде чем он покинет город.

На следующее утро молодой актер, одетый по последней моде, отправился в гостиницу. Он был уверен, что мисс Кэрингтон согласится взять его в партнеры, если он все ей расскажет.

К его удивлению, ему сказали, что мисс Кэрингтон навсегда уехала в родную деревню. Хайсмит понял, что он сыграл слишком хорошо.

A crossword puzzle is a game of words where the player is given a hint and the number of letters. The player then fills in a grid of boxes by finding the right words. Liverpool journalist, Arthur Wynne invented the first crossword puzzle.Arthur WynneArthur Wynne was born on June 22, 1871 in Liverpool, England. He immigrated to the United States at the age of nineteen. He first lived in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and worked for the Pittsburgh Press newspaper. An interesting side-note, was that Wynne also played violin in the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra.Later, Arthur Wynne moved to Cedar Grove, New Jersey and started working for a New York City based newspaper called the New York World. He wrote the first crossword puzzle for the New York World, published on Sunday, December 21, 1913. The editor had asked Wynne to invent a new game for the paper's Sunday entertainment section.View a copy of Arthur Wynne's first crossword puzzleWord-Cross to Cross-Word to CrosswordArthur Wynne's first crossword puzzle was initially called word-cross and was diamond-shaped. The name later switched to cross-word, and then as a result of an accidental typo the hyphen was dropped and the name became crossword.Wynne based his crossword puzzle on a similar but much older game played in ancient Pompeii that translated from Latin to English was called Magic Squares. In Magic Squares, the player is given a group of words and has to arrange them on a grid so that the words read the same way across and down. A crossword puzzle is very similar, except instead of being given the words the player is given clues.Arthur Wynne added other innovations to the crossword puzzle. While the first puzzle wasdiamond-shaped, he later invented horizontal and vertical shaped puzzles; and Wynne invented the use of adding blank black squares to a crossword puzzle.The crossword puzzle in a British publication was published in Pearson's Magazine in February 1922. The first New York Times crossword was published on February 1 1930.First Book of Crossword PuzzlesAccording to the Guinness Book of Records, the first collection of crossword puzzles was published in the USA in 1924. Called The Cross Word Puzzle Book it was the first publication by a new partnership formed by Dick Simon and Lincoln Schuster. The book, a compilation of crossword puzzles from the newspaper New York World, was an instant success and helped to establish publishing giant Simon & Schuster, who continue to produce crossword books to this day.
