Makes the Hit of the Piece.
He makes the hit OF the piece, without
Ieeeming to realize the fact. and at each
of the persistent encores he invariably
receives he comes hesitatingly toward
the footlights with an air of apology.
Smiths voice was discovered" during
rehearsal Of Nancy Brown at Lyric
Hall, and he, was taken out OF the
chorus to the extent of having his name
printed in the programme and being
given the one chance to make good"

enough. Smith ought to be spread all

had a strong voice, but It was not

Smith neglected his voice for his mus

he played right tackle with glory to
himself and CONSERVATION to the other

his fraternity, zeta Psi.
A stnse-strucis Youth.
After Smith left college he went the
way OF the stage-struck youth and
smoked cigarettes with the chorus Of
comic opera companies for two precari-
BUS seasons.
I'm those days Smith was very humble.
Now that he is flirting so successfully
