terng, and Marjorie was all for ac-
cepting the first offer, fearing that
she would never receive another one.
But ] said, 'Wait!' Managers are like
sheep. What one likes they all like.
The first offer was from one of the
big companies TO do a serial, but
felt that Marjorie ought TO start out
right, and to my mind the proper way
for a girl TO make her debut in mo-
ton pictures is not in one of those
sensational serial pictures.
$50 that was refused, and then came
others; oh. plenty Of them but there
was always something wrong. Either
the story was not suitable or the sal
airy was inadequate. What Marjorie
said Of her beauty is right. She has
none, but she can act, and she has
personality, so | made up my mind

Marjorie Rsmbeau leaned back in
her chair and sighed wistfully.
What do you think Of day and

about you like that? She has told me
all my life that am not ornamental

her; besides that, | am a Christian
