troduced to tho American publlo In John Cort's
production of "Tho Rose of Panama," in which
she played for two seasons. Then camo an

A now way for actresses to obtain personal
direction in acting from David Bclasco was
discovered last week when the producer and
manager had his first Interview with Mlsa
Blanche AuBtln, a young woman, 19 years old,
of Dayton, O. Miss Austin was tho winner
of a beauty contest conducted by one of the
Dayton newspapers. The Jesse L. Lasky Fea
ture Play Company had entered Into the con
test with a promtso of a contract at lo0 n
week to the winner to pose In motion pictures.
It was arranged that she also should receive
a month's Instruction In acting from Mr.
Bclasco, many of whoso productions aro being
remade Into motion pictures by the Lnsky
company. Miss Austin's "course" will last only
one month, but In that timo she will undoubt
edly have gathered Ideas that will give her
basis for a stage career.
Kate Douglas Wlggln's popular book, "Mother
Carey's Chickens," Is to be dramatized by
Rachel Crolhers. Joseph H. Brooks Intends to

Taliaferro in the principal role. This actress
headed the cast of Mrs. Wlggln's "Rebecca of
Sunnybrook Farm."
Lillian Kingsbury, who played last season
with Bllllo Burke, is on the stage this year
after a long absence. Fo- many years Mlso
Kingsbury and her husband were interesting
and successful Shakespearean players, and It
was always her greatest pleasure to train the
younger and moro promising applicants for
positions with her company.
It Is rocalled that Miss Kingsbury taught one
successful actress who was then a tyro. After
vainly trying to teach her Inflection In deliver
ing a speech, and suiting tho action to the
word. Miss Kingsbury, with no loss of pa
tience. Inquired:
"My dear, follow me closely. So. Now spenlc
as I speak, and walk as I walk. You can do
this, can you not?"
"If I could do It like you, do you suppose
I would be working for $15 a week?" was the
indignant question.
