SALARIES OF OUR PLAYERS
The Pay of Actors Varies From $40
to as Much as $500 Per Week.

Franklin Fyles. writing of THE The
alter and Its People" in The Ladies'
Home Journal. touches interestingly
upon the earnings of actors and cor
reefs the oft repeated reports of the
enormous earnings of players. "Sala-
ries vary with circumstances" he says.
"The manager may find at SO week
a player whose moderate talent exact
ly fits part of considerable impor-
lance. He may have to pay $3.50 If the
role is singular and fit candidates
scarce. If he wants celebrity in addi-
ton to ability. he may be willing to
make the salary $500 a week In that
case he takes into account the public
value of the name and makes a feature
of it in his advertisements.
mot more than ten actors in Amer
lea, aside from the stars, receive as
much as $3.50 a week. and not more
than five actresses are paid this
amount. In fact, $3.50 a week is excep-
tional, and 500 will engage an excel
lent hero or heroine. fine comedian
or n delineator of eccentric character.
The wages run down to $40 for SOU
brette ingenue or old man. 10 $50 for
an old woman. juvenile man or juvenile
woman. and so along TO utility and
chorus men and women at SD or SIS a
week. Those are the wages of thor
oughly competent actors in companies

serpent to follow him around the house
and even out Of doors happened one
