hidden away in the mind Of every one
of those girls who are tramping Broad
way these days-the thin girls, the
plump girls, the pretty ones, the homely
ones. the ones with talent and the ones
with talent mipus-which shoulders and
shoulders away for months, perhaps
years, and then suddenly bursts into
flame which nothing can quench. II
seems so, anyway, to the one who is
content to look on at stage Iife-that
elusive, glittering, filmy-winged thing
from the other side OF the curtain.
There are girls here in New York today
pounding with clenched fists at the
doors of the theatrical powers-that-be,
who have no more right to believe they
have a call to act than they have to
assume that they have heard divine

II is surprising. and somewhat pitiful.
too, to see the unusual number OF mex
perienced young girls who are recruits
in the dramatic field this season. There
are many of them who are graduates
from some dramatic school. They have
come to Broadway to try to break into
a game that even the old seasoned ones
hesitate to tackle. They can be recog-
nized at once by their youthful, in
genuous expression, their not up-to-
date clothing, the absence OF makeup
from their faces, and their cat-in-the-
strange-garret demeanor. Up the count
less steps to the managers office climb
these ambitious girls-for mighty few
of the dramatic agency offices are situ-
ated in buildings with elevators-and
they trudge down again, with hearts
heavier than when they assembled.
Altogether, these few weeks just be-
fore the opening of the theatrical sea-
son are not happy ones for the stage
children" young and old, on the Great
White Way.
How some of these girls live is a

~ ROADWAY-that portion Of the
- thoroughfare which lies within
the glare of the great white
light-looks just now like a mo-
tion picture of Your favorite actors and
actresses. They are all there-every-
body whom one knows either from
having seen them or because their pho
tographs have been exploited in the
pages of the Sunday supplements or
the monthly magazines. The stout
actresses who has allowed her "figger"
to become even more abundant because
of three months Indulgence in what
ever she wants to eat, and not too
strict adherence to a diet devoid of
starchy substances, Is to be seen in the
drug stores, discreetly buying some
thing that Is guaranteed to make her
thin, while the thin one who doesn't
need the anti-fat remedy, is, in all
probability. investing in something that
will remove the tan from her face and

They are all getting ready for the

in a month at the very latest The
engagements, but for the one who has
signed with this, that or the other

have not. They form an optimistic
crowd, those other ninety-nine, as they
trudge from one managers office to
another, stopping at the theatrical
agents offices between times They
tramp Broadway from early in the
morning until dusk, looking for that
engagement that will mean bread and
butter for them next winter. and they
offer an amusing study to the one who
isn't hunting an engagement. And, be-
lieve me. the person one meets in that
section of Broadway in which the thea
ters and managers9Toffices are situated,
who isn't hunting ia theatrical engage

to catch sight of some one looking
at her, the corners of her mouth will
assume an upward turn. her eyes will

For the actress is game. She will never
admit that she is down and out, and
seldom that she is even hunting an en-
gagement. But truth has an unpleasant
way of making itself manifest. and
