CHE PRICE,

Edna Marshall, who will appear
her at the the Armory on Thursday,
Nov. 20, is an intensely human play.
"The Price," by George Broadhurst,
author of Bought and Paid For" and
other successful plays, is a real act
ress, although possibly not so we'll
known to many Of our theatre-goers
a ssome artists Of lesser ability but
whom we see more frequently as their
orbit circle our particular part of the
country to the exclusion of the re-
naming portions of America, but the
fact is that the United States and
Canada constitute large field, and
an actor or actress, whose tours cover
the entire territory, is not so we'll
known locally as those whose circle is
smaller and hence more often ira
versed. This will be easAy under
stood when one takes into considera-
ton the fact that Miss Marshall tray
eled with her company last season a
distance of twenty seven thousand
miles, distance longer than the cir
conference Of the globe.
However, if unknown to many of
our patrons, she is an actress and
lady whom it is good to see and to
know, and she improves on acquaint-
ance. Charming, natural, artistic,
with a reserve of emotional powers
and intensity and with the finish and
polish that can only come with life
long experience in the most exacting
of all professions or arts she wins her
way into the hearts and sympathies
of her audience at once. Besides this,
she possesses a most charming per-
sonality, that at once makes one feel
that she is lady one would like to
know personally. This attractive per-
sonal element alone has made the sue
cess of many an actress, and when it
is coupled with the charm Of the real
artist, as in Miss Marshall's case, it
spells victory, achievement, success
This is evidenced by the story Of her
brilliant rise in her profession.
