and out among the tables.
IV. IS tnlkviij the other day to Willaid Spcnicr, tcho has irrittcn
more succissful light opirm than I have finner.1 ami toes. "I hnve
noticed this tendency on loth the stage and the screen lately," he said.
"It is funny how if spieadi. woke up yesterday mufning trith the
musical theme for a tony tunning through my head. 1 sat down at tho
piano and began to work it out. The words tell how wc have grown
tired of the vamp and the )a;; girl and now want 'The Apple I'ie Kind
of a dirt,' I think it is the liril thing I have written." (Adv. Xcit to
reading matter).
' A LUHAIVV we have thrct' grent screen mothers whose names are being prcss-i-
agented more widely than the names of younger stars. They arc Mary
Aldcn, Mary Cnrr and Vera (lordnn.
Mnry Cnrr, in "Over the Hill," hns hnd New York women weeping happily
for some time. This photoplay is in some ways the most remarkable achieve
ment of the last beason. It came at a time when the production of expensive
pectncles was quite the thing.
"Over the II11I" was not expensive; it wns not n spectacle. Its cast consists
of about n dozen people, with no "t-tnrs," and it tells a simple, homely story
of' plain life.
Yet William Fox has cleaned up over n million dollnrs with it and it has
not yet been released to the country at lnrgc. It is a triumph In simplicity; It
gets into the human heart and Miry right there, and, for the average woman, It
Is nt least a two-hnndkeichlef story.
And Mnry Cnrr did it. Of course, thoo who understand these thlngr will
know thnt Ilnrry Mlllnrde, the director, was the real guiding spirit throughout
the production. Hut Mary Cnrr, foimer Pl.ilnde'phlii woman, "gets the stuff
across" nnd mothers her screen brood so vou almost want to be mothered by
her yourself as vou watch her.
Mary Aldcn has been n screen mother ever since her debut in pictures. Her
triumph this year In the Hupert Hughes htorj , "The Old Nest," will probably
make It forever Impossible for her to play nnvthiiig but mothers ; Mnry Alden,
without n brood of youngsters to worrv over anil sniffle over, will now be
inconceivable.
Oddly enough, Miss Alden hnd a mother part in the very first picture she
appeared in. This was Griffith's "Hattle of the Se.es." And she had another
in the scrccnlzntlon of Ibt-cn's "(ihoi-ts." She's been mothering ever since.
And this year she and the other mothers of the screen step right into the camera
lns and take all the close-ups there are.
yOV all remember Vera Gordon and her part in "Humorcsquc." She
simply stretched out her a rim and mothered the whole world, tihe
teas really the one who started thii mother ciazc. There had been
screen mothers before her, of course, but she definitely raised the mother
part up to stellar rank, and that's irhcrc it is today.
r1 IS Impossible to think of Vern Gordon ns nnvthing but n mother, either on
the stage or off. Personnllv, children are a pabsion with her She hns
"adopted" thousnnds of little waifs in nlniost every eit in the country and she
doesn't do It just ns a pres- tgent stunt,
but because she renlly has the big ma
ternal heart that she displays on the
screen.
Even when she dcerted pictures for
Taudcville she continued mothering. She
makes it a point in every city she
visits to do something or other for n
Jewish orphan home there nnd usunllv
ahe does It without her press agent
knowing It If she cnn. Hut It's pretty
hard to fool n press agent.
She did it here some time ngo. When
the "flu" epidemic was on one of the
Jewish chnritnble orgnni.ntions gathered
together twenty-eight little children who
hnd been orphaned by the disease. Some
women collected funds and took a house
at lfiSO South Sixth street and turned
it into a home for the kiddies until per
manent arrangements could be made
Vera Gordon heard of It nnd wsltcd
the house when she came here on her
vaudeville teur. She helped.
Now the little family of orphans hns
outgrown its home nnd has sunt another
appenl to the screen mother. And she
is helping ngnin. She lias started i .ik
in New York on another mother piuuri,
but she hirs found time to organize a con
cert to ho given In Atlantic City w xt
Sunday night nnd she is going to run
dowii there with little Mi nam Jlattistu
and show how some of the famous si cms
in "ilumoresque were made
for several years slic has been sending autographed photogrnphb to fans who
wrote to her. Now she is writing each one of these fans, nsklng them to pay
twenty-live cents for the photograph, but to send the money to tho downtown
Jewish orphan home.
Thnt's the kind of real mother heart she ,ns. And Hint's why it Is Impos
sible to think of her iu nny other than u mother role.
1 OSCV aiktd 'ttli Miriam llnttnta vlnch screen player she liked
bet of all she had ever played with. And the answered ouite simply,
"Vna Unnlou. Xo; I don t like hir. I l.OVU her. She's )ust hko a
mother, even when you'ie acting with her."

"rpAKE her on up here? And have
- him have that man coming up
here continually to see her? I will not
agree to it! At least," I added, over
come by a belated sense of shame, "let
mo think it over."
II gave me one of his keenest
looks.
"Very well, Nella," ho said quietly .
even gently. "You will have plenty of
time to think It over. Annette is going
away on a trip for a few months. We
can both think it over. We need not
decide before fall. Hut please remem
ber that her fnther is an old and valued
friend. I ask you to consider mu that
far.';
With that, ho was gone.
Hut it was as If the peace thnt had
come to me was a false peace. It was
like the deceiving green growing over
the edge of t lie crater of a volcano.
Leaving a huiried note for II
that I hnd one of my old headaches
and would not be able to woik thnt
day, I left the studio, and drove home
Once there, I i-ent my servant awy
for the day, giving her pcrmifslMi u
go to a sister's nnd spend the night.
I wnnted to bo nlonc. I wanted to
bo where no human eye could see me.
I wanted to give myself up completely
to tho rage and Jealousy yes, jealousy,
Annette ; jealousy of you that was
consuming me. I had never known
Katie, my maid, to be so slow. I
thought she would never be ready to
go' I thought she would never stop
coming In to tell mo where I would
find the ten, nnd In whnt pnrt of the
Icebox she hnd put the cream, nnd where
I would find the eggs for my breakfast,
nnd the grapefruit, etc., etc.
I had told her that she need not come
back until, after breakfast the following
morning, and that I was going out to
dinner.
I knew thnt she was onlv thinking of
. nu nnd of my comfort. Hut I hated
her for not going more quickly. At
last I henrd tho door close behind her.
1 1 was nlone.
I I was in the big studio In my apart
ment. I took n studio-npartinent, be-
Icauso I love to have a room In which
I cnn move nbout freely. One gets ac-
customed to space, working in our huge
i studios. After them, the ordinary New
York flat beems like n bnndbox! M
studio has just enough furniture In it
to mnke it look Inhnliited. A grand
plnno nt one end, n large table for
hooks nnd mngazlnes, u few chnirs nnd
n couch. Here nnd there, on shelves,
on brackets, nnd on the windowsllls,
nre beautiful and costly pieces of brls-
u-hrnc. mnny of which II hns
given me.
When nt Inst the welcome sound of
the closing door fell upon my enrs, I
snntohed off the little velvet toque
I was wenrlng. The next second It wns
spinning through the nir. I hnd not
meant to throw It nt anything ; I only
wanted to have m.v burning temples
free. I wanted to let down my long
hnlr Hut it struck a delicate, fniry- '
llkelike vnse one of the first nieces
thnt II hnd ever brought mo. Ilown
it enme with a crash, shatcred lno a
thousand pieces. After that. I think
I went rrnJtv ! The sound of the break
ing glass gave me nn insane delight At
tho end of n few minutes I had swept
everv cholco piece thnt I possessed onto
the floor.
Then tho reaction enme. A flood of
shame, of remorse, of ns hitter humilia
tion ns I hnve ever known, swept over
me. I threw myself on the floor In a
passion of self-nbasement. I was noth
ing morn than an ignorant savage! AH
my hard-worked-for education, nil mv
ncqulred refinement wns n mere veneer!
I hnd reverted to typo! The yenrs hnd
dono nothing for mo ! At bottom I wns
the same ignorant, undisciplined child
that hail played long ngo on the slag
henps In Pittsburgh ' There woh where
I heiongeil ; I had better return !
When I got myself tin from the hard
floor, sore and bruised in mind and
bodv. nlzht hnd fallen. I tottered lnt

loose coil. Remembering thnt I had
hnd nothing to eat all day, I made my
self a cup of tea, and forced myself to

Then I took n hot bnth, gut myself

of you, to feel toward you, aa if you
were my younger sister, or even my
child.
Hut tho strugglo is not entirely over.
It Is wearing mo out. I wonder If I
will ever conquer it? You sec now,
denr, sweet, littln Annette, how, tin
1'iiowing and innocent, in crossing my
pnth, you brought back the tragedy of
my llfo in all its poignant freshness.
And, even now, when there seems
llttlo moro to write, I have not quite
made up my mind whether you shall
ever see this or not. I do not feel sure
thnt I nm big enough, nnd true enough,
nnd bravo enough to t.xvo you, although

For I lovo htm! I love him still!
Ah. I am sick once more of life
nnd lovo!
September 10.
A strange thought has been occupy
ing my mind today . The idea came to
me in tho night, while I wns lying
awake. It is thnt some subtle change
has taken place in me since I started
to write this, my life story . A strange
(linngc! Is it that all confession
cleanses? Even If one it, confessing, ns
it were, only to one's self?
For remember, Annette, I do not
know yet whether I shall ever have tho
courage to send this to you, nfter nil.
In the end, I may simply keep it for
myself; 'i record of the stormy pages
of my youth, to be rend over nnd per
Imps, who knows, smiled nt. when I
cot to bo nn old, old woman. It is hard
i for mo to think of myself ns really old
in the sense nt ever arriving at the
stngo when I shall not feel and suffer
keenly. I am not nt nil sure thnt I
want to. For when one cannot suffer,
one cannot enjoy. At least it seems
reasonable to arguo so. And I havo
such a capacity for enjoyment that 1
cannot believe thnt it cnn ever burn
itself out in this world nt lenst !
There have been times when this civil
wnr within me hu.s threatened to kill
inc. For I wns keeping it bottled up.
I hnve had no confidant. Hut this very
setting it down on pnper has becmed
or is it only an illusion to hnve re
lieved me? What oh, wonderful
thought if it is beginning to set me
free? Free from heartache, free from
pain nnd longing, free from the con
suming desire to see him ngaln, to feel
his nrms about me, his kisses on my
lips, as I felt them that autumn day
such ages ngo ! Thnt hns grown to seem
to me tho most desirnblc thing of all,
Kery tiling I hnve written has como
hard. It has been wrtnehed from me.
It hus been like a mrgic.il operation.
It has been like the tluoes of child
birth. Hut now that almost all has
been told, the reaction has come, I nm
beginning to feel us If I were waking
up out of a dreadful sleep; as If I wero
looking about me, and seeing again that
the world Is beautiful beyond thought"

THERE is n shortage of directors at
prcesnt, nnd for that reason salaries
nro particularly high In this line, but,
of course, direction Ih k profession which
takes many years of study.
In beginning work on his picture, the
director first consults the studio mali
nger, who Is really the hend of the em
ployment office. Tho studio mnnngcr
consults with him ns to the expenses of
the scenery and the length of time to be
me BLcncrj uuu hip lungiu oi nine iu uv
spent In making tho picture nnd then
summons tho technical stnff.
The technlcnl stall of a studio Is n
rather lnrgc assembly. There Is tho
art director, who plans the scenery : the
technlcnl man, who directs tho building ;
the cnstlng director, who selects the
nctors; tho electrician, who assists in
working out the lighting effects; the
laborntory superintendent, who must
supervise the dcvolonlne of the film:
i the cutters, who nssemble the completed
mm, nnu last, out not least, the cam
eraman. Of course, there nro hundreds of
minor posts assistant director, assist
ant camcramnn, property man, research
experts, location seekers, nnd so forth.
Tho casting director immediately
sends out n call for the "types" do
mnnded In the scennrlo. If possible, ho
notifies tho nctors nnd actresses person
ally, but mpro often he is forced to get
in touch with them through the numer
ous agencies which act as brokers In
"types."
