The Unmasking of Little Peg O My Heart" Which Reveals a
 Dixie Girl of Rainbow Personality
By DOLLY DALRYn1pI.E


 ! @EARCHING for an emblem of the M little Mississippi girl who is so cleverly playing Peg O My Heart round at the Bijou this week, one arrives quickly at the rainbow; she is essentially reflective medium.
 This l discovered in a little heart to heart chat I had with Miss Joy Janin in her dressing room during the makeup hour at the matinee, her vivacity and her youth giving her that irridescence which goes with sensitiveness as she reflects the thoughts and conditions about her. Rainbow-like her personality is elusive; the seven shaded ribbon that spans the skies has no more colors than this girl has moods; each distinctive, each differ- ent from the rest.
 Little Miss Janin was sitting before the pretty little face as I walked in to pay her call. She comes from my own state knows many, many people whom know, and it was my pleasure to meet girl who out of AGO applicants for the position she occupies as Heading lady of this Peg O My Heart company, and which MT. Civer Morosco quickly gave to her as soon as he met her-not only be- cause of her ability to fill the position creditably but because she was fel- low statesman of mine.
 Little Miss Janin is just as big as a watch charm; she might easily be used for such an adornment; she's all bright ness and vivacity and declares openly the moment you meet her that she simply adores Peg"
 You see there's so much more to Peg than people think; she's quite character study; Miss Laurette Taylor made her so famous that it is hard to live up to her, but I'm trying to do so every minute of my life" she said
 T felt highly complmented when was chosen to play Peg" she contin- ued T was doing an ingenue part with Emma Dunn in Old Lady 3t,' her big New York success when MT. Morosco sent for me and offered me that part. Happy? I should say so, because I had only been on the stage one sea son, and to think of starring in such play as Peg during my second season was al most too good to be true.'
 Most stars are surgeons to their plays; they dissect them; they remove one or gan and supply another; they lop off a living limb and replace it with a wooden one; and often the results are fearful beginnings to woeful failures, but little Miss Janin has applied no scalpel to Peg" she accepts her just as she ac- cepts her real friends-merits, faults, fol- lies, virtues, all in one mass, to her lovableness.
 You know I am awfully glad to start at what you might call the top" Miss Janin was saying as she took great wisp of long, beautiful hair and bound it tightly about her little head, making ready to don the red gold wig of Miss Peg. 'So many girls who go on the stage have an idea that they must begin at the bottom and work up, but I don't believe in that sort of thing at all; there are scores of girls in the chorus today who have ability who never get a chance. There's the point-a chance; they have the ability only to stay in the chorus, but I should never have been content

 with playing small parts; I believe if a girl doesn't get her chance early in the game, when she's young, she won't get it at all; if she does, it's too late.''
 What is your big ambition to play, Juliet, Lady Macbeth, what?" asked.
 The red gold wig of Miss Peg having been amicably adjusted the little actress shook her curls from side to side and archly said:
 "Oh, I don't know; just to do whatever attempt well; just to be a nice, whole some, everyday girl on the stage that everybody likes. Isn't that ambition enough? Of course, I should like to play part that would go down in theat- ricals as entirely identified with me as Peg is with Miss Taylor or Shirley Kaye with Elsie Ferguson or anything, so the part is a nice part and people love me for it'

in her arms and hugging him very tightly, knowing what an important part his dog ship has in the play, Miss Janin said:

Simple Methods For the
Control of Clothes Moths

Clothes moths, injurious to wooleDs
and furs, may be controlled by use Of
simple means. according 10 George y.
Dean, professor OF entomology in the
Kansas State Agricultural college.
Repellents will not protect fabrics If
they have become infested. Even TO
depend upon such repellents as cam
phor moth balls or tobacco will prove
more or less unsatisfactory. CastoH
woolens should not be stored in dark
closets or In attics, where they will
breed insects that feed on animal mat
ter. The floors and corners in closets
should be kept clean.
Articles in daily use. such as car
pets, rugs ana clothing. are not likely
to become seriously infested. Wooden
garments, furs and piumes stored In
dark closets. wardrobes or bureau
drawers suffer most. The greatest
damage Is done in the summer. when
woolens and furs are not in use and
the moths are most active.
If such garments and materials that
are not TO be used are carefully brush
ed, beaten, summed and placed in tight
rasteboard boxes, the joints of which
are sealed with gummcd PAPER. they
will go through the summer in com
parative safety. Such articles may
also be protected by incloslng in paper
bags and hanging free Of the floor in
closet or in the attic. Clothing put
away in n closet or wardrobe should
ne brushed and summed before storage
and carefully examined Mt least once
a month throughout the summer.
Trunks or boxes in which clothing IL
10 be stored for the summer should ba
cleaned and treated with gasoline. The
clothing to be packed away In them
should first be beaten, brushed ANA
summed. In addition to this. garments
should be fumigatcd with carbon BIZ
sulphide at least once n month from
April to August.
