r.Iim Murphy, Although Very Slim, Has Played Many a His New Comedy Entitled Pals First Says Dolly

successful play perhaps that I ever starred in. Opie Read couldn't have written play without humor in it for the leading character. I heard him say once that every man had to have streak of humor in his Hake-up in orr der to keep him from being ridiculous.
 And that reminds me- said Mir. Mur- phy "of a very amusing thing Sol Smith Russell told me once. You know how slender and frail looking he was and yet how serious he could be at times? Well, once he said he had played in some quaint little out of the way country village, and the next morning after the show, a long, struggling coun- tIy pumpkin walked up to him and said:
 l liked your show las night MT. Rus sell replied in a very dignified manner. I'm glad Said the countryman, sur Veying him critically: I got CT cousin eroun' these parts that could jes' beat the band playin' a part like that you played las night Indeed said MT. Russell, is he funny? He's the big gest dam fool you ever seen in your life,' the countryman answered, grinning from ear to ear, which rather knocked the conceit out of Mir. Russell. So ha said:
 You know, speaking of a sense or humor and clever things" MT. Murphy said, Henry Watterson once uttered a truiSm that stuck right tight in my mind as one of the most vital things \ ever heard. He said man without a sence of humor was like an old wagon without springs; it just hoped along. hippity, hoppity, in the some old jog trot all the time. And isn't it wonder ful to be able to see things at glance the humorous side of things? You know l married a southern girl--Dorothy Sherrod, who was my leading lady for a letgnomi h.raETAOINHRDLUU long time. She's out in our Texas home now, where I bought a big orange grove and had fine luck with 1t until Jack Frost came along last winter and nlpped it. She said then that she could imagine nothing funnier than an Irish man Qike myselD trying to run an or- ange grove. But what I wanted to say IS this: Dorothy Sherrod has the keen est sense of humor and the cleverest dramatic instinct of any woman I've ever known. She can read a play and the first time she reads it, she puts her approval upon it or she doesn't, and that ends 1t. I've always been a great be- lever in woman's judgment, about ev- erything. l guess that's why I'm a suffragette. Yes, I'm entirely and wholly for suffrage. Not the militant kind. Although think the women of England, in spite of their miitantism, when war was declared did their part nobly
 Women are good fighters, God bless lem. They have always had to fight-to be on the defensive for their rights, their honor and their womanhood and when I say I want them to have the vote, l mean it. And the vote, after all, is the least that they ask for in suffrage No man ever amounted to a row of pins without the advice and the influence of a good mother, and all the big men of the world owe their success to some sweet, gentle, self sacrificing mother. Yes. I'm good suffragette-if there's such thing as male one.'' i
