Yes, sir-ree, evi-ry blessed ono of thesu
bright luminaries of the stage once pavoitrd
In the humblo ranks of tho chorus So
why pity tho chorus girl su ecetslclv?
Why not envv hei ? She olivlouslv must
liavo unlimited opportunities to ascend tho
ladder of theatrical fame to tho topmost
rung
"The future-greats of the stage, tho ones
who will succeed tho present contingent,
lire probably singing mid dancing In tho
chorus this cry day," lem.iiks Hnzel Cox,
now appearing In "The Illuo Paradise" at
the I.vrlc Theatre "Perchanco every tlmo
you sco a musical show you gaze upon
homo chorus girl who some day will win
jour admiration for her stellar ability to
entertain. Verily, the rule that the best
way to success Is to start at the bottom
of the ladder applies ns potcutlallv to the
Etago as to tiny other puisult Jtyml you.
It Is no easy climb behind the footlights,
nnd merit alone counts, ilcspito all the
oupcrslons to tho contrary "
According to tho very latist reports from
New York, there never was sin.li a markid
dearth of chorus uirls as thero Is at pres
ent, and most any girl with tho slightest
semblance of talent and good looks Is
placed under contract with aidlty. This
Shortage is probably due to tho Inroads
mailo uiwii tho posslblo entries by depart
ment stores and nrtists, who arc using
moro and more models overy day
Whllo there Is no denying that home
chorus girls hae a penchant for night
life and others havo figured In unpleasant
court beandals, the great majority of tho
merry-merry are said to live, quietly and
sensibly, many of them cuppottlng or help,
lag to support mothers, jilsters or brothers

McCormnck was born In the town
of Athloiie. County Westmeath. Ireland, on
June II. 18S1 IIo recelxeil his carl) edu
cation ut the Marlst Urothcrs' Schools In
his liativo town At the age of twelve hn
was sent to Sllgo College where he was
graduated at tho ago of eighteen with tlie
highest honors, taking nil the prizes In Ills
class in Latin. (Sriok and mathematics lie
had some loeal rcpuatioii us u singer, but
his parents did not realize the gnat things
ho was capable of accomplishing in that
linn, and ho did not take to himself the
credit for being uiiytlilng distinctly out of
tho oidlnnry
After bis graduation from college his
parents sent him to Dublin to take a civil
sen Ire examination Apparently tho Idea
did not occur to them that he would be able
to turn his Mu-al talents to commercial ac
count Ono day, ns ho sat at tho piano ac
compamlug himself In ono of his fuxuilte
songs, a doctor from his homo town entered
the loom "Don't stop," halil tho physician,
ns McCormaek startid to get up from the
piano "lleglu It ucr again nnd let me
hear It all " When tho song wns completed
the doctor took his leave Tin going to
get Vincent O'Utlen," ho t-ald "I want to
hao him hear you sing
Vincent O'llrlen was director of the
Marlborough Cathedral choir, Dublin, nnd
ono of tho most Important musical person
ages hi tho Irish capital He was speedlK
found by the doctor nnd Intioduccd to Mc
Cormaek "Sing anything." said O'llrlen
McCormaek sang "Then You'll Heuiember
Me," from 'The Bohemian Olrl" "Young
man." exclaimed O'llrlen. "there's a for
tune in that voice. Don't you dream of
being anything else but a singer " Then
nnd thero It wns arranged McCormaek
should become a member of uTlrlen's
choir
A few months later thero was a big
musical competition In Dublin O'llrlen per
suaded McCormaek to tako part and gnvo
him prlvnto Instruction for several weeks
Tho joung tenor easily carried oh tho first
prize. Tho song ho selected for tho com
petition Is still ono of his great favorites:
"My Snowy-llreat.ted Pearl "
McCormaik will give n concert ut the
Metropolitan Opera House on next Thurs
day evening
WHY SOME SCRIPTS
DO NOT SELL
By MARIN SAIS
l-'ianl.Iy. friend reader, tho picture plajer
has no light to talk to )ou eoncirning the
writing of photoplays that Is the scenario
department's business. Hut so many of the
fans who write to mo enclose scenarios or
ask me why they aro unable to sell tho ones
they send to tho scenario department, that
I believe I may be pardoned for taking up
tho subject.
I know that other players also receive
many reuuests of this kind, and. try as wo
will It la not alvvajs posslblo to keep up
wltli tho task of answering these letters as
ona would like to And scenario editors
aro so disappointingly curt nnd brief In
their treatment of aspiring writers. I am
therefore, going to take up my pen and
wrlto here at greater extent than Is possi
ble when answering hundreds of letters In
spare time.
As you might havo expected, my first bit
of advice Is- Do not send our stories to
the plasers or directors There aro many
reasons for this, one of the most Important
being that plujers and directors, wit'i very,
very few exceptions, have little or no volco
In tho selection of their stories.
Another Important reason might be la
beled "Hed Tape." but I usture )ou It Is most
Important tape Thoukanda of scenarios aro
received at, each film company oinco every
week Kach firm has elaborate systems and
records to Insure return of stories when
not used and to record every step In a
story's career while it Is In the company's
possession
When you send your story to u plaer you
are upsetting this s)htem The players
with a world of cares and worries of their
own feei the responslblity of taking caro
of your story I know of many players who
therefore make It a rule never to read a
single word of the stories they receive, but
to return them at once.
The pla)er'a mind Is then clear Other
wise, if he were to lay the stories he received
on his dressing room table until he secured
an opportunity to read them he mCist worry
over the possibility of losing one of the
manuscripts or losing the address, or per
haps, if he found a story to have possibili
ties. It would beveks and weeks before he
would h?ve the opportun ty to discuss It
with the scenario editor
