It would be discourteous not to begin

ever fair Lillian Russell-but then, with
her the making collections has always

It's like sadly saying over a rosary OF
names instead OF prayers. Now what
was wrong with them all-these mar
riages? These women all loved, or
thought they did, and yet divorce" is
deeply carved on the gravestone OF each
dead love, and each OF these separations
has done It's share to lessen the good re-
honor no one seems TO "care a hang"
The conditions of stage life are not
conducive TO domestic happiness and con-
tinuous marriage, but they are not neces-
sarily fatal to them. AS witnesses
whereof | set down the first half-dozen
names that come to mind of permanent
ly married professionals. There is Mr..
John Drew, who married the lovable and
charming little Miss Baker. of Phila-
delphia, and they are happily living again
In their young daughter. James O'Neill
married one of Cleveland's boasted beau
ties, and, together with two stalwart
sons, they lead a family life. Mr.. Will
lam Seymour married Miss May Daven-
port, and the union has lasted long
enough for them to give in marriage
their daughter, who is a startling replica
OF her beautiful aunt, the late Fanny
Davenport.
The dark-eyed, intense Miss Arthur
and the blond and charming Miss George
are both in the continuous marriage
game and we're never more popular with
the public than at this immediate mo-
ment. While Miss Barrymore, having
"given hostages TO fortune" In the shape
OF three sturdy and winning little ones.
certainly seems TO be on the way to con-
tinuous marriage.
There are others, thank God, but these
names are known OF all men and best
bear witness that permanent marriage
is not impossible In theatrical life. Then
where does the fault lie for all these
broken vows and bonds?
First, let us consider that the price ot
outside" happy and permanent marriage
the whole world over is much selfcontrol
and some selfsacrifce. There cannot be
successful married life without paying
this price for IT,

Martin down to our own Jefferson, Hob
land, Meader. Farren. Conway, Daven-
port. Booth. Barrett and Couldock, not
one actor or actress knew that marriage
was detrimental to stage glory and last
ing success. They steadily went their way,
respecting every contract made, whether
theatrical or matrimonial.
But now that a husband Is a dotrtment,
keep asking myself why-and again
why? II he is a parasite, refusing to act
even as a combination courier, valet,
publicity agent and husband, devoting
himself to billiards and cigarettes-yes.
he may be a detriment
Again, II is conceivable that husband
with an enlarged but lightly furnished
mead, might KICK against managerial au-
thority, being incapable OF understanding
that an actress goes where the manager
sends her TO, and rehearses when he COM
mands her TO, and that there can be, for
her, no divided duty" between manager
and husband. Friction and irritability
follow.

way TO CROSS
IS S0LEMNIzED
Dramatic Symbolism Plays I'm
portant Part in Good
Friday Services

Solemn celebrations OF the cruel
nxion were held In the Catholic
churches Of Detroit. Good Friday. in
which dramatic symbolism played
an important part. In tie cathedral
on AdeIaide-st., the figure Of Christ
was seen hanging upon the cross la
the various Sanctuarics Of the
church. against uprelieved black
backgrounds. All Of the hangings
and altar cloths were Of black. as
were the vestments Of the priests.
''The Way to the Cross" was solemn
lied by the clergy, typifying the
Journey OF Jesus from the court Of
PLATE to Calvary.
The most impressive services
held in IS. Peter and Psuls church,
Jefferson-ave.. where the Ire Ofe
was celebrated. These are the three
hours when Christ hung, diving, upon
the cross. The solemn stiffness OF
the great congregation showed the
depth OF its feelings. The seven last
words of the Savior form the theme
for the music and service in which
the congregation Is allowed TO join.
The Rev. gr. Claude J. Pernin de-
livered the sermon which brought
dramatically before the eyes OF the
people the choice which was before
them OF sin as expressed by the fig.
ure of the Magdelenc and the repent
ence possible TO all OF us. or the sin
OF the world which crucified Christ.
The lesson gained from the great
sacrifice was humility, patience.
faith.
The church doors were not closed
until long after the hour set for be-
ginning. owing to tho great crowds
which continued to pour In.
