"Upon the stage. when you arc
known. you are received with a round
of applause at your first entrance. and
if your work merits IL you are recalled
at the ends of the acts. OF course.
nothing Of this kind happens In the
silent drama, and although you may
not realize the fact Mt the time. you
miss that applause more and more as
you go along.
II was awfully sorry the other day
when I had to decline an ofrcr from
George NJ. Cohan to play In his new re-
view at the Astor Theatre. where /
should have had chance TO earn this
response from the public. But / had
been under contract for months to
appear in the picture upon which j am
now at work. and the company was not
in a position to postpone the produce
ton.
80 must get along for n time
without receiving direct assurance
that I am doing we'll. I presume this
confession will be construed In some
quarters as an admission of vanity.
but IL Is not entirely that. Rather,
I should say. Is the desire for the pub
lie expression "A kind OF self test: a
wish for quick action upon the value
Of what you are trying to accomplish.
And anyway. the absence Of applause
from the operation of making pic
ture play cuts a very important figure
in the feelings OF the actor and actress.
