company of Australia, but declined, pre- ferring to live in New York, and pursue her work there
 My first interview-and I mean by that I called on all these various stage people in order to make awings of them,' MT. Wells continued, was with Alice Brady it was her first interview as well as mine; she hadn't then become the celebrity she is now; Emily Stevens was one of my favorites and Ann Mur- doch and I became quite good friends; she frequently sent me cards to her par ties which I didn't go to by the way, but I liked her and always enjoyed her very much. Florence Reed was another of my favorites and-oh, there were too many to tell you about all of them.
 Just before I left New York I had a most delightful visit with Avery Hop wood,'' MT. Wells told me, lat his home Piermont-on-the-Hu Hudson"
 ',Tell me about him, it has been three years, nearly four, since I saw Avery Hopwood at French Lick and wrote story about him. I observed. 'Is his sweet old mother with him at Pier mont?"
 "Yes his mother is with him." said MT Wells, but somehow I never think of her as old, she's most wonderfully young, and most wonderfully attrac- tive.'
 And is Avery Hopwood, in your opin- ion, the cleverest of all the younger American playwrisht?' I enquired, cu- riously.
 q don't know Avery Hopwood as a dramatist at all I only know him as a friend and he is certainly the cleverest of friends-the most wonderful and the most companionable."
 Do you happen to know if he's ever been in love with anybody" l asked, remembering several little incidents and discussions of various people I'd had with him along this line at French Lick.
 T hardly know what to say about that,'' said MT. Wells. He has often told me that he thought Doris Keane was the most wonderful girl he had ever known and he talked about her a great deal, but as for his being in love with her, that's a different propositions; don't know"
 'sAnd what would be your advice to aspiring young artists going to New York looking for shall I say fame and wind- mills, like Don Quixote?' I asked. T should say to any young artist, stay where you are most useful,' said MT Wells. That's why I'm going to France, it's there that I will be of more use now than anywhere else.
 And then he started on the subject that he'd been trying to talk to me about ever since we started-namely, the ad- visibility of training kitchens for army cooks, so that the soldiers could be given nutritious food, so tha the brawn | and strength of the men may be kept alive that they might do their fighting ! best.
 "But will such things be established?' I asked
 Certainly" replied MT. Wells. "They are bound to be: there is more talk ol l food conservation than any other sub- | ject connected with the war-more than of munitions and everything else, but rot word about it's preparation, and | a soldier can't be half soldier, unless 1 he has the proper food to eat and un- l less there are training kitchens for army cooks there will be no proper food dis pensed.'

daily life.
 SAN DIEGO LIKE MADAME
 She calls San Diego her home now, and San Diego is tickled to death about it. Not only does it give the touriest supported town another point of interest, but a very substantial citizenness as well, for Mime. .Schumann-H -Heink is a mighty good asset to any community
 She is a splendid housekeeper, as every one knows, with a hospitable bounti- fully supplied board, and a woman of many business interests which she looks after with an executive ability I should call masculine had I not such ardent confidence in the feminine mind
 Just down the steep road from Mamma Schumann-Heink lives the loveliest little person I have looked upon in a dogs age-Mrs. Hubert Guy, the famous con tralto's daughter
 To my amazement this diminutive pice of prettness produced for my in- spection a daughter of her own, Barbara, aged one year, and looking very much like her handsome young dad Dad op- crates a ranch down in the valley, where there are chickens and canteloupes and walnuts, but the family lives on the heights.
 There is another daughter in Germany, the wife of surgeon in the Prussian army And August, the lad in the Ger man navy, has a wife God send, she is not wdowD and two kiddies.
 "In my boys last letter." says the stall wart matriarch who is the mainstay and refuge of her children and her children's children, The bids me care for his loved ones God knows what I have is theirs but I can get not one word to them or from them and it drives me to mad ness!
 LOVES AMERICA LOYALTY
 q thank America for all I have and am loyal lover of this land where l have lived for 20 years! What fortune 1t has brought me belongs to all whom 1t Is my privilege to help.
 q do not believe in hoarding riches. do not believe in large inheritances give as I go, that my children need not wait for my death to receive their DOT tions. Only"
 Mme Schumann-H Heink's brown eyes twinkled for a moment as she added: "Only I have cut down their allowances lately, for too much money is bad handicap. [ have been so anxious that my children should not know the hard ships and privations I have endured that I have been an unwise mother in some respects. A parents duty is all to the child-not the childs to the parent, as so many believe
 q thank God for my children and for my work. But if my boys are taken from me by this cruel and needless war think my work and my life will be ended I love this country. But I love all countries. And so I pray for peace.
 shall always remember ErneStine Schumann-Heink as she said those words standing outside her hilltop home in the sunshine, in the strong blowing wind, her rosy face turned upward and her broad shoulders thrown back.
 She seemed to typify something bigger than the pretty valley below, bigger than her children, bigger than national mis- understandings or human quarrels. She seemed a qualification of motherhood. Not the motherhood that ends with the mere function of maternity, but moth erhood that includes all life, all art, all human understandings universal moth erhood.

Broadway Is Like a French Pastry-a Parfait- Nice While It Lasts, But It Shouldn't Leave Any
 After Effects" Says Former Birmingham Artist
By DOLLY pALRYMPLE

IRHM all the superficial. cheap,
 fl unsatisfactory places in the
 W world-the one spot in America that we'd like to forget is Broadway It is like a French pas try-a parfait-nice while it lasts. but It shouldn't leave any after effects"
 That's the way Mir Rhea Wells ex- presses his Idea of "The Great White Way''-that mecca of chorus girls, stage Johnnies," gay married men, and bright lights, where champagne corks are as thick as the sands of the seashore and a persons repuation may be blown to atoms like a blue -bell-which breath may shatter in a moment!
 This clever young man who has spent the past three years In New York is pleasantly remembered In Birmingham, not only among his immediate circle of friends, but by the thousands of readers of The Age-Herald where for several years Mir Wells clever illustrations formed one of the most attractive fea- lures of the paper.
 Rhea Wells has talent plus; he could do anything else almost as well as he does things with a pencil" to quote Zogbaum; he can dance and sing and initiate" people; he can draw any car toon and paint things with "ten-league brush;" he is an epigramist, Bohemian, a charming young fellow to number among your friends and pretty soon he is going to be a soldier, for that's what he has come to Birmingham for after three years absence-a sort of "au re- voir'' visit before he goes to France.
 If I knew Rhea Wells better Cor less; you see. I worked side by side with him for a long time and he did some won- derfully clever illustrations of my stuff" and many is the time that we've called on various celebrities-Ray- mond Hitchcock, Margaret Anglin, Henry Woodruff, Jefferson D'Angels-and while talked he "sketched)-I might set down in cold gray type better pen picture of the boy, for he's an exotic, as different and as unusual-as well, as his description of Broadway. for instance, and that of nearly any other person from
