: The recent statement Of an actress.
who may be safely said to enjoy an
eminent place on the stage. that she
attributed her success to her acquire

would not hold Eood nor insure equal

While success on the stage Is DOS

] should say that, Judging from my
ten years experience on the stage
and what experience l have had on
the screen, that real. lasting sue
cess cannot come to a player who
oOee not genuinely feel the part he
or she portrays.
To this reliance of the stage stars
upon the use of well-known effective
tricks to gain effects is due. / be-
lieve, their failure to attain the same
heights on the screen. BY this / do
not mean that all stage stars do this.
But / think that those who do sue
ceed on the screen. to the expected
degree. realize the greater and higher
demands of the screen and meet
them accordingly.
For instance, every we'll experienced
player knows just what infection of
the voice will produce certain effects
on the audience. But in the picture
the voice is absent. The player can
not any longer. on the screen. place
that reliance on the voice's myriad
messages. And no matter how con-
scientious an artist a stage player
may be. believe there is always
more or less. though perhaps uncon-
ecious dependence upon the voices

Rest moments on the stage.
For the screen there is left only the
face and gestures. With the unsym-
pathetic eve of the camera to catch
every little thing that the eye would
likely miss on the stage, the screen
player cannot simulate thoughts and
emotions. His or her face must real
ly reflect what Is passing in the
mind. The successful screen player
must use every phase of the suR-
gestive power Of thought to inspire
the same feelings and thoughts in
the photoplayer.
Imagination, alone. in a screen

what a girl of that station would

To succeed out of the ordinary on
the screen, one must not alone feel
what is portrayed. but feel it deeply.
And the player cannot really express
all phases of life until his or her life
has encompassed much-loved deeply
