Ether and Me or "Just Relax"

by Will Rogers

"You will be tickled to death to read about an Actor who suffers," says Will Rogers."And the more continuous he suffers, the more you will like it". In the end, you'll have to admit Will's right. When he gets to telling you about this operations he says most folks don't name outright-- you'll see he knows his carving knives. The more he suffers the more you will have to laugh.

About the author

People noted wry homespun commentary of American humorist William Penn Adair Rogers, known as Will, on society and politics.

This Cherokee cowboy, comedian, vaudeville performer, and actor fathered Will Rogers Jr., the congressman and veteran of World War II.

A mother bore Rogers, known as favorite son of Oklahoma, into a prominent family. This world-famous figure traveled around the world three times, made 50 silent films and 21 "talkie" movies, and wrote more than four thousand nationally-syndicated newspaper columns.

The American people adored Rogers, the top-paid movie star in Hollywood at the time before the mid-1930s. Rogers died with aviator Wiley Post, whose small airplane crashed near Barrow, Alaska territory.
