Gertrude Dallas, Reception.

Seldom in the theatrical history OF
Grand Forks has a beautiful actress
teen accorded a more cordial rccep'
ton than was thrust upon MISS Ger
trude Dallas Monday evening when
she appeared at tho Metropolitan as
leading lady with Paul Ev.rton in
The Gamblers" Miss Dallas is a
beautiful woman. she is young and
charming and has been endowed with
a rarc gift as an actress. Her por.
travail of the heavy woman's part III
Charles klein's best play was surur,
and the recognition given her Mon.
day evening by the splendid Grand
Forks audienc" was quite unusual and
strong evidcnc. that she will always
be welcomed here.
Through j T. 7. O'Connor who met
Miss Dallas i'll New York city during
his year as instructor at Yale univer'
sity a Times representative was given
the pleasure of meeting Miss Dallas
between the acts last evening and. the
short Interview and visit With her was
truly as rich and inspiring as tho quail
ty of her dramatic power on h stage
She il a southern girl possessed Will
y sweetness of greeting that is hard
to describe; happiness CLEANS from
her countenance always n 50 az
home is she in her great profession
that though in the haste of disrohing
from a lacy house gown TO that Of a
velvet street costume her attention was
not once attracted from her guest,
Miss Dallas did not wait to be asked
questions. She just burst out in JOY
over the reception her audience had
given her and said: You know. ir
just a few hours I grew to love Grand
Forks and it Is such satisfaction It
feel that its people are pleased Will
me. ] hope they are sincere for ! dc
want to come back here again some
day."
Miss Dallas professional success
came to her in New York city and for
leading lady in The Commanding OF.
ficer" so the novelty Of 2 cross CONT.
nent tou is quite new to her but she
is enjoying it thoroughly. She admits
that she is very domestic n loves
home life SO the one night stand does
not appeal to her as it might to other:
but happily she says it must all come
in the life Of an actress and if al
cities were like Grand Forks sht
lot.
This is the actress first trip through
the west and she expressed anlazemen'
at the srlendidness of Grand Forks a:
% city. During the afternoon Sester,
day she was the guest of Mr.. O'Connol
and enjoyed a visit to the state uni
vcrsity and was entertained as a din
ner guest at the Varsity Bachelor fra
ternitN house. Like everyone else thu

c%leverness and last evening they pait
her a pretty compliment when a mag
miticent bouquet of American Bcaut,
roses tied with the fraternity colors
red and black. was handed over tn
footlights t" her at the close of tn
second act when shc was compelled Z
respond tn several curtain calls. Whel
Miss Dallas came back with the flow.
