They soon became friends. The young girl wished to correspond with Miss Bingham and the latter knowing the prejudice concern ing actresses that sometimes exists in the South. asked her if her mother knew that she had called. The re- sponse was that the mother had heard all about Miss Bingham. Thereupon the star invited the mother to accom- pany the daughter for a chat.
