Times Writer Goes to Interview An Actress
She Finds Her Old School Mate From East
BY Gertrude Grexso

by Gertrude Greyson ,ae
The usher at the Empress hand
ed me a program, and / glanced
carelessly over the names until
came TO Pearl Young" Gee,
thought, l used to know girl
back in Boston by that name.
And sure enough. when the girl
came on it was. I made q bee
line for her dressing room after
her act, and say. were you ever
real glad to see some one? Then
you know how 1t was. We talked
like magpies for a while. 1t GER
tainly was an easy interview for
me.
How did you ever come to 20
on the stage?" I asked her.
1--WE girls used to go TO the
theater quite often" she said,
''and so I got to thinking that
could do as well as some of them,
SO I said TO myself. me for IT,
knew the manager and there you
are.
IT did not tell my folks until
three days before I was to 90 on,
and / had to have a new dress, so
/ had to tell them.
"I1l never forget that first
year." she went on. II was scared
silly and stood with my hands be-
hind my back and all bumped up
for fear that someone would see
my peaked elbows or think my
arms were too long, or something.
But stuck to 1t, and finally a
good manager took me in hand"
do you still make faces +" I
asked her, remembering our school
days.
"Oh, land yes, and always win,
/ guess. Do you remember the
trouble l used to have because 1
made faces at my teachers7"
I did, for one day after an un-
usual face, Pearl went home and
after that she went to different
school.

Tho Coinage Of Money.

It IS generally understood among
those who have especially studied
the subject that the coinage of mon
eysbegan in, Asia Minor. The Ly-
dians are credited with being the
inventors. The oldest known coins
are the electrum coins, stamped on
one side with lions head or the
figure Of a king with bow and 'quiv-
er. These were replaced by King
Croesus with a coinage of gold and
silver. To Croesus were probably
due the oldest gold coins of Ephe-
sus. The system introduced by some
unknown Lydian king was adopted
by the Greeks and so passed on
down the ages.-New York Amer

Yrs fearful when your loving wife
Awaits you on the stairs

The hows and whens and where's.
But never this my feelings stirred
As when she never said word.
And when your boss arrafgns you
In words that sting and smart
And things about your folly
He tells you heart to heart
There's nothing that can make you crawl
As when he doesn't talk at all.
A man who loud assails you
And brawling bawls you out
10 one to be avoided
A terror without doubt.
But dread tie man who folds his paw
And never gives a word Of jaw.

Whose voice is all a-thrill.

And bends you 10 her Will.

q small eel about the size Of a worm.
Suddenly a. drcnched urchin made
his appearance. Caught much"
asked the boy.
Cant you see," impatiently re-
piled the angler.
~Yer'll catch nothing there, mis-

ardent angler.
