News of Actor Folk Who Have Other Than the Stage

Helen Ware, who will appear in Chan
ming Pollock's powerful dramatic play
let, 'lt Doesn't Happen" on Monday at
the Palace Theatre. Beauty alone does
not insure success. says Miss Ware, and
the girl who has ability will succeed
even II she be plain.
Il would rather have my appracia-
ton Of beauty than beauty itself
would rather my face showed strength
Of character. a high purpose in life,
and depth OF feeling than be as beauti-
full as Helen of Troy.
AS a matter Of fact my looks have
played a very small part in my career.
! have always tried to dress becom!ngly.
and follow the usual rules of hygiene.
But as to the shape of my nose and
the color Of my eyes, whether my
mouth was a perfect Cupids how and
my complexion snow white and rose red,
! can assure YOU | haven't cared a fig.
My face, for my purposes, has had to
reflect the varying emotions of the parts
| play; II it is tragic, serious face, as
| have been told, II is because | have
acted many tragic, serious parts.
"A great many girls start life handl-
capped with the morbid notion that they
can never make a success because they
consider themselves plain. They seem
to forget that they have any minds or
souls al all, They only remember that
they have been denied a heritage Of
golden curls, melting blue eyes and
cheeks like roses in the snow, as some
poet has put it!
"Now, personally, ! believe the So
called plain girl Is less Handicapped in
life than the girl who has the fatal
gift of beauty. It's very ephemeral
and passing quality, this beauty, but
in nine cases out of ten the girl who
has it considers it enough.
This powerful tool, she thinks, is all
she needs 10 carve her way 10 success.
1t never occurs to her that beauty and
beauty alone, without any depth Of
