Anether Youngster Will Get a Chance te Star
JrpHEUE was n young chap sitting talking te a girl In one et the studies In
New Tork Inst week when I went i. Somehow his fnce seemed very familinr
te me, yet I could net place him. He didn't seem te recall nny ether studio,
.nor could I remember hnvlng seen him en the screen, and yet I was certain
I there wa's some reason why I should knew him.
it Ami then, later, nncn we were lntremiceu, tne mystery was solved, de

Jber the young boy and girl characters who made up most of the funny situations
ind who wen se much praise from the newspaper critics.
J Well, this young chap In the New Yerk studio was Glenn Ilunter, who
X played that boy part. He has gene into pictures lately and new he has found
ifteme one with se much faith In his ability that a company has been formed and j
will seen begin production with Glenn at star. I
j This is surely the youngsters' day in pictures. Txek at the bunch of kids
Jn their early teens, or younger, out en the Coast making their three or four
fliundred dollars a week. And little Johnny Jenes is a star, hnd Wesley Barry
and, te skip only n few years. Gareth Hughes Is new a star for Metre, and Dick
SUarthelmess for Inspiration Pictures, and along comes Glenn Hunter, as boyish J
Jas any boy could be, te take his place In the Hall of Fame. '
When jeu see n kid like this scarcely old enough te vote reach the top
!notch of his profession, you somehow get the idea that things have been pretty
fiwft for him and that he hasn't bad te put up with the hard knocks or bark his
Ishlns en the rough places that come into the experiences of most of us.
I Hut jeung Glenn Hunter's short career hasn't all been as soft us you would 1
Jthlnk. He has seen his days and his years when a dollar bill made him feel like
the United States Treasury and a fifty-cent
U leek like somebody's birthday.
j fF.V THOSE days," he said reminisccntly, "I often slepj in the parks
I under the stars. But when I had fifteen cents I get a bed in the
t Mills Hetel." "Which enet" I asked. "Down en Seventh Avenue,"
he replied. "Oh," I said, "I thought maybe we icere classmates. My
T alma mater was the one down at Blecckcr and Thompson." But it gave
X me a sort of warm fellow -feeling for Olenn Hunter te knew that ha
i hadn't get up-stage and ashamed of the fact that he once hail tablemates
? who ate with their knives and drank their coffee from their saucers.

JIIjENN didn't really hare te de all this. He went through It only because
VJ of his obstinate determination te be an actor. His family, In his home town
of Highland Mills, N. Y., wanted him te b a business man as the ether males
:
of their kin had been.
Glenn didn't like the idea at all.
fclerking in a jewelry store, but he made a dismal failure of It simply because he
didn't want te make a success. And se he finally forced the family te consent
te give him a try et the stage.
f Being young and self-confident, he felt that he uenld be In New Yerk only
;n few weeks before some manager would sign him up at a big salary. Se he
tdldn't bring much money with blm. And. when that was gene, he was tee proud
Ste ask the family for mere, se he wrote them that he v,an doing fine, hunted a
comfortable, unoccupied bench in a park, rolled up his coat for a pillow and
Jwcnt te sleep.
j That's the way it went en with him for some time. He didn't se much mind
sleeping In the parks In the summer time while it was warm, but he did hate
;le go hungry. And he did It quite often.
I Then he happened te pick up a newspaper en one bench and naturally tnrned
:te the theatrical column. There he read an article by a woman writer and it
Jsrtmetl te have such n genuinely human touch that he made up his mind he
..would go and see her and tell her his story.
I And the writer proved te be really human some of them are, you knew.
Glenn hadn't eaten for two days, but she didn't knew this. She gave him fifty
Scents te have three photographs taken, one for her te print and two for the
managers. He had hers made and spent the change en breakfast.
t This writer introduced him te th Washington Square Players, then at the
most Impecunious stage of their existence at the Bandbox Theatre. Tbey offered
Jliitn $10 a week te play small parts. It was the best they could de. Glenn took
jit and kept it for two years, realizing that the experience he was getting was
worth mere than immediate money" te him.
I Then for two mere years he played in the read companies of "Magic,"
J"Pollyanna" and "Pcnred," and then did his bit In the war. And afterward
Jennie that boy part In Beeth Tarkingten's "Clarence" which put him en his
artistic feet and made him mean something te the managers.
fi It was in "this part that Dorethy Glsh saw him and asked him te play
opposite her in "Oh, Je!" and se he get his first taste of moving pictures
nnd liked 'em. Then came "The Case of Becky" with Constance Binncy, which
you will see this winter, and he Is new finishing a corned) role with Nerma
Talmadge in "Smilin' Through."
: But he hasn't entirely given up the stage. He la rehearsing a part with
Blllie Burke In a play written for Maude Adams and they will open seen In
New Yerk, though they won't go en the read with It.
: And, as seen as the Talmadge picture Is finished, he will start with his own
company te produce pictures In which he himself will be the star.
:
I IT'S going te keep him pretty busy working at both the stage and
pictures. But I imagine it is a let mere satisfying than these
J old days en the park benches. And think hew proud the family must be
! of the boy who was a failure as a jeweler's clerk I

NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTER Xti
t.TTTHAT de girls de when they're
VV alone, In a city at night, without
anv money or nny friends?
That's the question I nsked myself,
ns the subway train thnt.I was en went
hurtling through the earth, and I sat
there, clutching my empty purse. I
knew that there were charitable organi
zations that took girls in, but I was
sure that they'd wnnt references. And
I couldn't very well, tell them the real
reason whv I without a home.
Then, tee, I dldtft Juiew where nny of
them were.
Of course, I could hitre (tone te n
hetel: I wouldn't hnve had te pay In
advance. But I was se tired and be
wildered that I didn't think of that.
I'd never traveled alone, you see; I'd
always lived with my aunt, until I came
East te work for Malcolm Sandy. Se
I wasn't at all resourceful.
I stayed en the train till It went te
the end of the line Brooklyn Bridge.
Then I had te get off, because I was
flic only person left in the car, and the
guard was shouting nt me, "All off
end of the llnel" Se I get off nnd took
another trnln that wns going bnck up
town. I wondered If I could keep that
up till morning.
By the time the train get ns far as
Fourteenth street 1 was beginning te
feci horribly cold nnd cramped and
hungry. The thought of my dear little
room at Stanley Qucntin's camp came
back te me. Hew comfortable I'd been
there, when I'd snuggle down under the
down quilts and sip the het chocolate
that a maid brought me after I get Inte
bed. And then hew nice. It had been
when the lights were out and the crisp,
clear mountain air came sweeping into
the room, te lie there drawing in great,
deep breaths, nnd thinking' about Derry,
till I'd drop off te sleep.
I must have dozed off for just nn
instant, for when I came te myself,
with a jerk, two girls nnd n mnn who
sat next me were talking busily. I
hadn't noticed them before.
"Nice time te call nnjbedy, this is!"
sputtered one of the girls. "Nobody
with nny sense would make a picture
atthis time of night!"
"Oh, well, probably this guy's in a
hurry te finish some stuff. And you
will 'admit that it's a better time te
get what he wants thnn bread daylight
would be." answered the man, reaching
ever te pull her fur cellar closer about
her threat. Somehow, that little act
sent a wave of ncute unhnpplness ever
me; I wished some one had been there
te de that for me 1
"Cheer up and think of the five big
iron men you'll get tomorrow morn
ing." the ether woman urged the girl.
"And breakfast thrown In. Come en,
litre's Times Squnre."
I jumped up and followed them out
of the train nnd up te the street. Some
body wns mnklng a picture maybe I
could get Inte it. That would keep me
off the streets at least. Five dollars
and breakfast thrown In!
They walked up Broadway a block or
two, and then turned east and went
halfway down the block, te the low
building where quite a crowd of people
was turning In. I looked up at the
lighted windows half a story above the
street. "The Hunter Agency," read
the sign en the windows. I knew that
name; Malcolm Sandy had spoken of
pno-rerrATs
