NEWS OF STAGELAND FOLK,
SKIP FIRST. NIGHT
, OF YOUR NEW PLAY
That's May Tully's Advice, and
She Supports It With Af
fecting Histbry
During my twelve years' experience In
the theatre two first nlshts ntnnd out prom
inently In my memory. Naturally the first
night In Now York of my first play, "Mary's
Ankle," at tho BIJou Theatre, Is my most
vivid theatro experience, and It Is tqo re
cent and real to be very humorous 'to me.
But I can laugh heartily over the mem
ery of the first night twelve years ago. I
left McGIll University, Montreal, In 130B
(to become a great actress). So strong
was my yearning to uplift the drama that
I did not finish my collcgo course. My
firit actual engagement was In Hall Cain's
The Christian." The heroine, CJIory, Is a
very difficult and exacting part. But noth
ing daunted me, who Impatiently awaited
the role of Lady Macbeth. Unfortunately.
my tour In 'Tho Christian" was of short
duration. We lasted Just ten days In the
South. I came back to New York un
daunted and with expectations high I Jour
neyed from one agency to another and was
maied that I found no great demand for
my services. I admitted to myself by de
grees that perhaps, after all, I would con
sider a minor part, and finally arrlcd at
the stage where tho "inlnorest" part eer
written would bo seized upon" with grati
tude. At last one day I was offered a posi
tion In tho chorus of "The Good Old Sum
mertime." The following week, which
brought tho premiere, wo were to play
Montreal, and I naturally wrote my col
lege friends that I was coming. I neglected
to mention that I was a member of the
"merry, merry." Our press ngent diabol
ically printed a story In the Montreal pa
pers to the effect that May Tully, a McUlll
student, was making her stage debut In
Montreal. Tho first night arrived, the
boxes were occupied by members of the
faculty In evening dress. Two hundred
ef the college boys had pnrchascd teats
In the balcony and tho entire first ten rows
of the orchestra were taken by students
from tho Uoynl Victoria College the name
given to the women's dormitory. I thought
of running away, but the long line of girls
behind me blocked the exit. Finally, I felt
a push and a gruff voice ordered mo to
"go on," nnd remarked that "these show
girls have more temperament than prima
donnas" Fortiinntclv no one recoRnlnnl
me for a moment or so, but soon I heard
a glgglo from the balcony anil my agony
began. After the petformance the dean
of the college, who wns a titled English
lady, said In her softest and loftiest tones,
"Don't you think, my dear, the more seri
ous side of your profession offers a moro
tatlsfylng career?" I mumbled something
about developing grace from dancing, nnd
made as hasty nn exit iih possible
My other first night as the opening of
my play "Mary's Ankle," in New York. A
thousand impressions Hashed ncross my
mind. Some of them are funny nnd some
are not If you ever write a play don't go
to your own first night I always fancied
that when my first night came I would be
calm and philosophical no sense In being
all worked up, you know I argued thu.sly.
"I have written 'Mary's Ankle' for laughing
purposes only. I have worked long nnd
carefully. It had been nccepted by one of
the shrewdest producing manngeis In
America A. H Woods. He had given It
a good production nnd n splendid cast of
players It was playing at n charming new
and Intimate theatre. I waited until the
curtain had rung up nnd the electric fans
had subsided, nnd after getting up ten
times to allow late comers to be seated,
and incidentally seeing seerai Important
points overlooked on account of confusion,
I gathered myself together nnd fled.
GOOD FILMS WILL BE
UNHARMED BY TAX
But Weaklings Must Go Under, Avers
L. J. Selznick, Movie
Magnate
By Lewis J. Selznick
When I advocated open booking the film
Industry generally said I was crazy. In
less than a year's time, however, I was
proved right and open booking was the
accepted ord'r of the day
Again tho film Industry Is going to hay
that I am crazy when I state, ae I do now.
that I am most emphatically In favor of
tho Government's tax on motion picture
film, But I know that I am right and time
will prove me so Just as it proved me so
In the case of open hooking.
Aside from the patriotic purpose which
the tax accomplishes by providing revenue
for the Government, thero Is a great nnd
everlasting benefit which the tax will be
stow upon the picture Industry. For It Is
such a burdon upon the picture manu
facturer that only those who make and
market pictures of high quality and merit
can hope to survive. In this way the tax
becomes an agent for the cleansing and
purifying of the producing end of tho In
dustry, by eliminating all the Junk and the
poor weak pictures which are being pro
duced at tho present time
Let me explain a llttlo more fully. The
man who has to pay this" enormous tax
has to get a high price for his product In
order to keep his head above wafer. Now,
high prices can bo obtained only for good
pictures. The vast amount of Junk which
Is being marketed today under the name
of motion pictures does not bring a price
sufficient to pay a profit on production cost
mer mis tax is added. Therefore, the
manufacturers of this Junk vlll be com
pelled to produce fewer pictures and bet
ter pictures In order to escape tlje dis
astrous effect of the operation of tho tax.
and this will be ono of tho best things
that ever happened to the motion picture.
Industry.
The case Is similar to that of a man
ufforlng from cancer. He dreads the
jurgeon'a knife and yet his only hope lies
In operation. Through the operation he
?8 a cnance to recover. It Is a case of
kill or cure, We may record this Gov
ernment tax as the operation performed
n motion pictures which will cut away
the dead, rotten tissue and leave behind
enly the healthy, vigorous body.
That Is why I say that I am a firm
Mliever In tho motion picture tax and only
win that It was heavier. If It drives to
ins wall those whose methods of opera
lion are so unsound and unbusinesslike
hat they cannot bear up under Its burdcli
j-then so much the better for the Industry.
The keen, live producer will know how to
readjust his output so as actually to bene
Jt by the operation of the tax, and the
fen, live producer Is the only one that the
industry has any need of.
So put me on rfipnrd no unvlno. that ..
IS In disguise.

MARTHA HEDMAN WAS
AIME. BOSSE'S PUPIL
The
Latter Wns Strindberg's First
Wife nnd an Accomplished
Actress
When "The Boomerang" comes to the
Gnrrlck Thentro on October 29 theatregoers
wilt have another opportunity of seeing
Martha Hodman, tho charming young Swed
ish nctress. Miss Hedmnn's fair northern
beauty, dlstlnct'y Scandinavian, Illumines
tho role of tho nurso In this popular Win
chcll Smith and Victor Mapes comedy.
Ileforo coming to this country Miss lied
man had achieved a fine measure of succesa
on tho Swedish stage. One year she visited
London with no thought of plnylng on the
English-sneaking stage, but after she had
been In llrltnln uwhllo she met tho late
Charles Frohninn, who offered her tho part
of ltcnee In Uernstoin's "Tho Attack," in
which play sho mado her first American
nppearance.
"I was fortunate In being a pupil of the
first Mrs. Strlndbcrg Harriet Bosse. ' said
Miss Hedman recently. "Sho was a wonder
ful help to me. When I went to Stockholm
I did not piny at Strindberg's Theatro first,
but at another. Later, however, I P"eu
with Strlndbetg he had a theatre of his
owji nnd appeared In "Swanwhlte and
Easter.' I should llko to do -Easter' In
this country, but I doubt that it could be
arranged. , , ...
"Many of Strindberg's plays could not be
done over here. Some of them are won
derful,, but they nro hlstortta nnd hiue
only a limited appeal. In Sweden we play
many translations. Wo have had The Sec

plavs, nearly all of which were done by
Mr. Julia Hoknnson. who Is ono ot our
best actresses. ,
