THE ART OF STAGE MAKE-U
George Nash Gives Some Rules
for the Use of Grease Paint.

George Nash. who has returned TO
Broadway in "Panthea,' at the Booth
Theatre. is known among his associates
in the profession as one OF the few mas
ters Of makeup OF the American stage.
He demonstrated his ability along this
line by his success in THE Witching
Hour" THE Harvest Moon" and The
Gamblers
Members % foreign companies who
have made the criticism that the Ameri-
can tendency to let en- actor play year
after year the same sort of character
deters the players education have often
praised Mr. Nash for his ability as a
makeup expert. In Europe an actor OF
any Importance is not considered pro-
ncient until he has a repertoire of a
score or more parts. and the skill TO give
to his own face the characteristics called
/ for by the roles.
A man may have very good knowl-
edge of makeup" says Mr.. Nash, and
/ find il of little service to him unless he
j has also a knowledge Of physiognomy,
/ which is to say that man may very
well know how TO produce the effect Of ii
Roman nose, for example. However, this
knowledge, to be valuable, should have
beneath it a sufficient acquaintance OF
character to inform the actor what the
Roman nose itself would indicate.

Do It Thoroughly

In your business if you can dc
anything particularly well, q
scout will call on you, and offer
you better job. Seven tenths
of the big men of today, in every
calling, have been picked up by
scouts in small villages or on
farms. Don't say you haven't q
chance, because you have; q
scout is watching you every day,
and you are promoted as you de.
serve. A good clerk in a country
town is fought for by farmers,
and he is soon picked up by a
scout who has a farm TO sell at a
low price, on long time. And
the more modest and capable
you are, the more apt a scout is
to find you. But you can't fool
a scout; he knows good work.
There are times when it is a
good thing TO be victor in a fist
fight. Some men cannot under
stand any other argument, and
will annoy you until knocked
down.
Only one in ten thousand can
be a genius, but anyone can be
a hard worker, which pays bet
ter. The biggest business men
are nothing more than the best
workmen who have been promot-
ed. The world is full of three
quarters men; they are three
quarters industrious, and cannot
get all the way. A man should
know his job thoroughly and fill
il with enthusiasm. His work
is his backer; his source of cred
it;his hope of prosperity and
distinction. BE as careful of
your job as you are of your note
in the bank. Criticism will
do you more good than compli-
ments. A compliment makes
you lazy; a rebuke causes you
to become more active, and the
more a rebuke hurts, the longer
you have been needing il.
BY the time some people make
up their minds what TO do it's
too late.
The best friend a man can
have is a reputation for being
fair, capable, Industrious, polite.
intelligent and temperate.
Nearly all capable men are.
