The Leading Lady Tolls

Possibly the hardest position in
stage life is that Of leading woman
in stock. Not only is this member
forced to learn week after week parts
which sometimes run as long as 100
pages of typewritten manuscript. but
at the same time she must play the
current weeks attractions and look
for clothes.
And the clothes feature is not the
least of her worries by any means.
Laura Walker, one Of the most beau-
tiful women Of the American stage,
has already made her mark on Broad
way as an emotional actress. In 1.-THE
Man Who Came Back" Miss Walk
er's performance was a triumph Of
artistry and Interpretation.
In speaking of her stock engagement
with the Garrick Players last week.
Miss Walker said:
II love stock work, and believe
no one can call herself a real actress
until she had done several SEASONS of
this work. 1t not only develops ver-
satility. but it makes necessary re-
sourcefulness. l. do not mind the
study because / realize that each
week makes me just that much bet
ter as an actress.
THE real worry comes in selecting
clothes. Evey minute of the time

that In original productions several

ENID HAS A MOUNTAIN.

Enid Bennett, the photoplay star. is
a great mountain climber. She has
been to many heights and many
depths in the Grand Canyon and in
Yellowstone National Park. Now she
is perfectly happy, for she has just
bought a new home in Beverly Hills,
which is within walking distance Of
the Santa Monica Mountains. There
are some quite formidable peaks,
which she says she is going to sur
mount during the summer. She is
a real climber, too. for when she goes
out she abandons skirts, high heels
and all those feminine frivolities that
interfere with genuine outdoor sports.

CONKLIN'S NEW GAME.

William 8. Conklin, who plays
heavies in Thomas H. Ince pictures.
has invented a new game, which al
most caused a riot at the Ince studio
a few days ago. The game was this:
A chalk circle was drawn on the
stage floor. and each one put a nickel
in the ring, all the money to be
taken by the person on whose nickel
a fly first alighted. Conklin was such
a persistent winner that someone ex-
amined his nickel and discovered
candy on 1t. He pleaded innocence,
urging 1t must have been accidental,
as he was eating candy. but he is
being kidded generally as the inven-
tor of the fly game.
