FIGHT FOR CHILD ACTORS
Labor Association Says Majority
Never Succeed on Stage.

The National Child Labor Committee IS
taking up in the several states the fight
against the appearance of children on the
stage. Everett W. Lord. secretary for New
England. has issued a statement IN which
he says that child actors are blighted in
physique and ability by premature work
He says that most stage children drop out
Of the profession. and that the majority Of
successful actors did not start as children.
In answer TO the question whether acting
is work or study. he says: The Supreme
Court of Massachusetts has decided that
acting is work, and as such is forbidden
for children under fourteen years of age. -
He adds:
There are plays. IL is said. which cannot
be presented unless children are included
IN the cast This claim. as Charles W
Eliot. president emeritus Of Harvard Uni
versity. has pointed out. greatly belittles
the skill and power Of the actor. The most
famous Of Topsies played the part for
twenty years after she became a mother.
The plea Is made that by going on the
stage opportunity II given children 20 pre-
pare themselves for an honorable and Ia
crative profession. In the year 1850 there
we're employed on the stage IN New York

could not be, as Mile PoIaire was more
than passing fair.
OF course. it was a mistake. Mile. Polaire
might have big feet and the smallest waist
in the world, but all this talk of ugliness
must have been made with reference to the
