or duh his ardor would be fatal to the
drama. For the ambition of the actor
is the dramatst's greatest instrument
for success. The author and the actor
are of one blood; and the former is par
ticularly dependent on the latter"
Then a certain actor should be def
nitely in an authors mind when he
writes a play"
The play is likely to be much more
effective II some great actor is" replied
Mr.. Sutro. There can be no doubt that
ROstand was helped infinitely in his work
by the knowledge that Coquelin was to in
terpret it. The knowledge that you are
going to be interpreted by great actor
gives you courage and enthusiasm
Inspiration l interjected.
Industry spells Success.
In playmaking." replied Mr.. Sutro I'M
compromisingly, there is no such thing
as inspiration. a successful play is a
question merely of industry and knowl-
edge"
Isn't the idea underlying it a matter
Of inspiratiOn?'
Not at all. 1t is the result Of subcon-
81 Icus forces. of all the things you have
observed. and taken in. and digested.
1t is"-Mr. SUtro paused-"the utmost
blossom of constant endeavor." he tri-
COnCluOGu. Livery pay
walks about for weeks concentrating
upon an idea before he gets one. Then
suddenly one comes, the direct result Of
combinations of past experience. Peo-
PIE call that an inspiration. II is not.
MY experience Of commercial man
ayers would make very unsensational
reading, I'm afraid he answered. I'm
afraid all that ! can remark is that I've
found them very monumental.
Mr.. Charles Frohnan. for instance. Do
you know, I've gone to Mr.. Frohman
with an idea that I thought was good.
and I've told him the story of II, and
he listened very carefully, and then said,
It's a good idea-but there's no money
in it. No money in it. repeated Mr. Froh-
man, but L would be a good play. an
artistic play. And I'll be very glad to
produce it Do you know I've never had
a contract with Mr.. Frohman? Just his
simple word that he will make a pro-
duction. So I'm afraid I'm not a good
authority upon commercial managers"
And the constitution of a good play?'
/ asked for a final question.
"A good play is a play that succeeds"
said Mr.. Sutro, looking at the little gild-
ed clock, for his rehearsal hour was
upon him; and The Perplexed Husband"
in the person OF Mr.. John Drew. was
doubtless waiting with unrehearsed per-
pleXities.
Then Mr.. Sutro hurried away, doubt
less to put his ideas into practice.

Green Uniforms
for Members of
the Marine Corps

The United States Marines are going
to have new uniforms especially for
winter service. and they're going to be
green.
Yes. green. Each patriotic Irish heart
in the ranks OF the sea soldiers is
throbbing with delight at the thought of
the new clothes. Also. the transplanted
population OF the Emerald Isle, which
resides mostly in New York and Irish
Hill. San Francisco, beats with pleasure
Dressing reform has struck the ranks
OF the Marine Corps with a vengeance.
First it was pajamas. nice white ones.
to be worn at night, with which the ma
rines were obliged to outat themselves.
That order went into effect last summer.
Now il is green uniforms. OF course.
they're not a brilliant green like the
''ould Sod but they're green Just the
same. The cloth is Of decided green
ish tinge. and when the sun strikes 1t II
will look just like the green Of the Irish
hills around the Lakes Of Killarney
when seen from a distance.
The cloth of which the new uniforms
are to be made is some mysterious ma
teriaI. known officially as forestry
cloth"
