The Daily Story
She Found Her Vocation-By Eunice Blake

you might mass something in that
way"
Helen's heart sank within her.
What-give up her dreams OF having
her name posted In enormous letters
as famous actress. to be photo
grsphed for ten cent show, Horrible.
Nevertheless. going home to a lot Of
hungry children. with nothing to buy
food for them. sent her the next day 10
a studio where a picture play was Just
beginning TO be made ready for pres
entation TO the public. Although the
manager had no experience at that
early date in producing such plays. ic
occurred 10 him that the chief feature
In them was the acting. especially the
facial expression. Beauty was also an
advantage, and Helen was comely.
Let me see you look like q thief
caught red handed" he said
Helen obeyed.
Good, Now laugh. Good again!
Look at me with naughty contempt
Excellent! You are condemned 10
death. You are an innocent girl listen
ing to the first words OF love. That
will do. You have the power OF ex-
pressing by your face what you feel.
IN your case words are not needed.
What salary do yOu expectT'
Whatever you choose 70 pay
II will start you at S25 a week. but
I am sure you will soon be worth more
than that"
Helen was surprised. How easy was
the getting OF this situation compared
with her efforts to secure a trial at
which she had failed, The manager
advanced a weeks salary, anxious TO
bind the bargain and fearing some 9th
er manager would get her away from
him.
He gave her a part in the play that
he was about making photographs for.
and it was at once evident that she
would make a great success. And she
did
Helen war6eId within a few months
was receiving 500 week and IS now
a prime movie favorite. She has seen
the day when famous sectors and
actresses are proud TO perform by pho
tograph. She has a genius for In
terpretlug humanity by expression.
though she has no gift whatever FOR
rendering IT in speech. The plays Sc
lected for her are such as may be rem
dered in this way. She has acted the
title role I'm some Of the famous plays,
but they are those in which the
lies IN the acting rather than
the speech
1t is needless TO add that Helen War
field IS making money, and feeding,
and educating her charges is
a very simple matter. When she has
acted her parts sufficiently 10 be photo
yraphed successfully in them her work
IS done, while her competitors on the
stage are obliged to work on for every
cent they receive.

Heien warheld when nineteen years
OF age. by the death OF first her father
and a few months later her mother,
found herself responsible for the sup
port OF herself and several brothers
and sisters very much younger than
herself. What should she do TO feed
and clothe her little onesI She had
shown some talent in private theatri-
Gals for histrionics and had been told
that she would achieve success on the
stage. An old friend OF her mother
offered 70 advance a certain sum by
which she might receive some educa-
ton as an actress. and Helen avaiIed
herself OF it. taking lessons OF an elo-
cutionist
Her instructor did not encourage her.
he told her that her enunciation was
peculiar 10 herself and that Il was IN
attractive. As for her action, especial
Is her facial expression. IL was all that
could be desired. But she could not
hope to please with that alone, and her
euunciation would SO repel an audi
ence that her valuable qualities would
not be appreciated.
Helen's friends told her that this was
rubbish. She had pleased private au-
diences and she would with the same
gifts please the public. Helen believed
them because she preferred 10 believe
them. She did not know that intimate
friends. even II competent critics, will
seldom give an unbiased criticism. As
FOR professional critics. while they may
Judge as to what is artistic, when it
comes TO judging what the public viii
fancy they are as much at sea as any
one else.
Helen. encouraged by her friends,
persevered. After a hasty preparation
she attempted, with the assistance Of
friends, TO get an engagement. She
was offered parts in which she would
have but a few words to say. but she
felt that they would give her no oppor-
tunity 10 show what she could do. and
she pushed on for something better.
Finally, at the earnest solicitation Of
a friend. she was given a trial. IL was
arranged that she should understudy
for a part that would test her powers,
and the person whom she was under
studying agreed 10 give way 10 her as
soon as she was ready 20 make the
trial.
In due tine she appeared in the role
she had been preparing for. She made
n dismal failure. She felt her part,
acted her part, but she could not speak
her part. As her preceptor had warned
her. her enunciation spoiled the whole. |
What shall dog" she moaned. Il
have spent the money furnished me to |
study and have failed"
Il have heard" said her instructor, I

or some belated fowl
Who 'mongst the frosty shadows dim
Unumely seeks 70 prowl'
me sunshine may send gold across
The trees with branches bare:
The signing southern wind may toss
A greeting through the air:
The angleworm may venture near,
transient warmth TO meet
Alas He finds the atmosphere
A sorrow and cheat.
But when strange chalk marks you OBJ
serve
On pavements here and there;
When curious line and mystic curve
For tribal sports prepare.
You know that youth has felt the
thrill
OF earth's awakening joy.
There's no sure sign OF spring until
You get It from a boy.
