A Romance of the Footlights
Washington Girl Who Has
Risen to Stardom Through
Medium Of the Stage Tells
Own Story.
BY MARIE NORDsTRoM,

Editor's nots-This 10 the second installment Of
the absorbing footght romance Of Marie Nordstrom
the beautiful washington girl who win Be seen here
next week at the Belasco Theater In Harry James
smiths new comedy. "ohi Imogen.''
Many has been the friend who has
said to me that came to fame by the
love route. But II isn't true. Mr..
Dixey's first interest in me was en-
tirely professional. When he decided
that I was more nearly the type he
wanted for his sketch "Over a Welsh
Rarebit" than my sister Frances and
offered me my first role he had a feel
ing of surety that I would be pliabIe
clay in his experienced hands. And so
it proved. Untiringly he worked with
me. And such a marvellous thing to
me was his faith in my ability that /
was determined that he should not be
disappointed.
The customary theory is that a girl
must come to a stellar position
in stock or under the able tutorship
Of some master in stagecraft.
Maybe that is the safer route for
the average aspirant. Maybe 1 should
not cite my own experience as any
criterion upon which any little STAGE
struck soul may safely build her
hopes. Maybe was just tremendously
fortunate in my beginnings where an
other has to travel a difficult trail.
However. I have never been able to
believe that years in stock never made
great actress or actor. To my mind
the awful tedium Of stock drilling; the
lack of time in which to prepare any
part in a finished manner: the nervous
strain and drainage upon ones
strength destroys all the freshness and
charm Of a players work. But after
all, each of us must work out our
artistic salvation for ourselves. What
lis wisest for one may not prove so for
another Certain I am that 1t would
not have done at all for every stage
aspirant to have gone as I did after a

single month with Mr.. Dixey in his
sketch to the ingenue part in Grace
Livingston Furness' The Man On the
Box" at the Madison Square Theater
in New York. But felt no fear. You
see Mr.. Dixey had imbued me with his
own great faith in my talents. and so
1t was that l rushed in where many
more experienced actress might not
have dared to tread. And after eight
months as Nancy I succeeded Carlotta
Nielsen as Betty in the famous play
where l remained for two years in
New York.
Following The Man On the Box,

About one mile as the crow flies" she
replied, but. alas; it took Tom Thumb

distance home. Would that l had not

Puss did not hear her, although he turn

On arriving at the palace, he found
everything in great confusion. 1t seems
that poor little Tom Thumb had fallen
into some dough which the royal baker
was about to make into cakes. This had
so enraged him. that he had gone to
King Arthur with the tale, saying that
Tom had tried to spoil the dough. On
hearing this, the King had ordered Tom
to be beheaded.
Where Is Tom Thumb" Puss demand
ed fiercely. The retainer laughed very
loudly at this. but thinking it a huge
joke. went and told King Arthur.
Bring the cat to me-" cried the king
in a rage. But Puss was not frightened
He walked boldly UP to where King
Arthur sat and bowling very low, said
in a firm voice:
My good King Arthur rules this land
With justice and a generous hand.
Far Be it that cat should plead
That little Tom Thumb should be freed!'

Puss was at once led to the baker. who

Many residents of this city have recalled
a similar exodus of negroes to the North
about ten years ago. These persons feel
confident an the blacks who have left
their homes will find their way back
before many weeks have passed. for, thew
say, 1t was zero weather that made them
return before. With the coming of snow
