Premiere Danseuse at 16
For a number of years petite Mnrllynn Miller,
who will appear In "The Passing Show of 1911"
ut the Lyric Theatre next wrek, was unnblc to
dance In New York because of the vigilance of
the Gerry Society.
The Gerry Society, as you may know, docs
not encourage "child prodigies" on the stage.
Now Marilvnn, said to be 0110 of the most mar
velous of dancers, was a child prodigy, a real
"Infant phenomenon." after the standnrd set by
Charles Dickons.
Marllynn was 16 the flrst day of September.
She danced when she was 4.
Miss Miller never appeared In New York be
fore List Juno, whon she made an extraordinary
hit at the Winter Garden.
Mnrllynn mado her debut with her father,
mother and sister at the Lakesldo Park, Day
ton, Ohio, on August 20, 1!03. one afternoon,
vhllo tho Millers wrr playing In Davton. little
Marllynn Miller, then 4 jears old, was taken
to n moving p'ctuie show. One of tho pictures
was of a famous premiere dnnseuse. Marilvnn.
on arriving horn", told her mother that she
thought lu could dance on her toes as well as
the lady she had sen In the pictures. To the
surprise of Cnro Miller and his wlfo their little
daughter was very soun dancing around the
room on her toes.
So It was that little Mnnljnn became one of
the Columbians, which after timt week wore
billed as "The Columbian Trio, with Mademoi
selle Sugarlump." The name ".Mademoiselle
Sugarlump" was after a time dropped from the
"billing," and the Miller family became known
as the "Columbian Four" father, mother and
two daughters. Owing to the child labor act,
