MISS KLINE IS DEEP
STUDENT OF DRAMA

Miss virginia Kline, the new leading
woman at the Belasco. is a deep stu
dent of dramatic art. She played three
years with Mary Shaw, part of the
time as an undestudy, and has APP
peared in three different Ibsen dramas.
Possibly no other woman now on the
American stage has a deeper insight
into the problems of khe drama than
Miss Kline and in addition to this she
has admirable technic.
81 cannot conceive of an actor or an
actress becoming really great" said
Miss Kline. unless they have definite
professional ideal and follow 1t re-
lgiously. Trick acting will not make
a player great unless there is back of it
emotional and intellectual power, the
power of personality and mind. I have
made an analytical study of the drama,
especially of Ibsen, and become more
and more convinced of the necessity OF
a thorough grounding in the laws OF
dramatic art, and of constantly build
ing up and strengthening of the pow,
ers of intellectual as well as emotional
interpretation"

Aphie James, who will appear with
Louis James in peer Gynt," is a
young woman of brains, beauty, grace
and ambition. She has fairly won ner
way by hard work to her present po-
sition. She has dramatic genius, a cul-
tivated mind. clear and full rounded
voice and grace that fits her for the
ideal stage. In marked degree she
has that psychological power possessed
by Clara Morris Of making the specta-
tor see the picture as she sees it, and
to be exalted as she is exalted.
Under .her mystic spell one finds
himself In what seems a new world IL
Eliminated by the light of her genius,
and for the time being one imagines
the mimic scene the real world in
which he is living. Her effort is con-
cealed. As in good music, her art is
lost in harmony. Aphie James has been
surrounded from her earliest years by
the refining influences Of good society.
Cultivated people have been her model
and her absorbing love for art and lit

failed to respond to any of their 40
vances until one of the girls called
"Mike!" The cat walked over to her,
arching it's back and purring. Having
acquired a home and a name, the cat
shows daily increasing signs of pros
perity, and the devastated patches on
it's back are gradually becoming COW
cred. 1t follows Miss Blondelle devot-
eddy. She regards mike" as an omen
of prosperity, and says that his pan
handling days are ended.
Willie Dunlay, the popular comedian
in 1.-THE Honeymooners," who appeared
last week at the Grand injured his
left knee cap severely while doing some
of the trough stuff" in the second act.
He was able with difficulty to finish tho
performance, and appeared the remain
der of the week with a crippled knee.
Tom G. Baker, manager of the Grand,
has expressed some concern on ac-
count of his increasing avoirdupois, but
his troubles are now at an end. Mr..
Baker has a comic opera on his hands,
and with an incubus of this sort no
man need fear becoming too fat. In
short while we may expect to see MI.
Baker worn down to such genteel slim
ness that he will be a candidate for
"Slivers" role.
Bill Ham Cline is famous locally for
his James Hazen Hyde Whiskers. At
last the priced facial umbrage is to re-
ceive a fitting tribute. Charles Airing,
who will take the part of the bandit
in 1.-THE Idols Eye" has decided to
model his fascial makeup after Cline's.
Selah!
Harry Glazier of the Belasco always
wears a fascinating white hat on the
street The unblemished immaculate
ness of these hats has been the subject
of much comment among Mr.. Glaciers
friends. Never yet has one of his top
pieces shown a stain and his method
of keeping them in this condition of
spotlessness has been a mystery. Yes
teday Mr. Glaciers friends learned the
truth when, by mistake, a large box
was delivered to the actor at the the
alter, instead of at his apartments.
To-day is my birthday" he said.
1.-THE folks are sending me something
in the way of eats; I'll open it up now
and We'll all get in on it," The on
lockers waited expectantly while Glaz
Ter opened the package and disclosed
dozen white hats.
After being made the victim of con-
siderable good-natured badinage Mr..
Glazier explained that he bought the
hats by the wholesale, as he found this
better method than getting them
cleaned.

IF YOU VALUE YOUR
HEALTH DRINK
PURE WATER
If You Live in Los Angeles,
Drink Puritas Distilled Water.
It Is the Only Reliably Pure
Water Available Hereabouts.

In former days people paid relatively
little attention to purity in food. If it
looked pure, that was sufficient. They
did not go further.
In the last few years more attention
has been given to purity in foodstuffs.
And with the passage of Pure Food
Laws and the publicity given pure food
work, people have become educated on
the food question. The modern house
keeper today is careful to serve only
pure food on her table.
She ought to be as careful to serve
pure drinking water.
Pure waters are seldom found in ma
ture. Natural waters usually contain
considerable amounts of impurities
These impurities cause diease, d.
rectly or indirectly. AS a matter of
economy, if for no other reason every
body should be careful to have a sup
ply of pure drinking water constantly
at hand.
Puritas Distilled Water is the only
reliably pure drinking water obtainable
hereabouts. 1t is twice distilled, it is
aerated with pure ozone, it is bottled
in clean glass demijohns so carefully
that it reaches you with all its whole
some purity intact.
You can absolutely rely upon the
purity of Puritas Distilled Water. 1t is
pure-every demijohn, all the time.
Yet Puritas is inexpensive Five
gallons cost but Ace. Just telephone
us, Exchange 6, either telephone, and
we will see that you are supplied
promptly.
