Miss Gateson's "Notice''

Little Simplicity Is a certain Lulu OF

that Lulu does, speaks and feels would
pass muster. say. in the suburban
home or in what used to be called a
female college In more than one
respect Lulu is sportive, even wanton
But according to her lights and
world, Lulu is honest and whole
hearted. If quick sympathies and a
playful disposition loose her, a sense
of humor (Which sometimes is close
to self-respect) also bride her.
Strange as it may seem in a musi-
cal play, Miss Gateson actually
makes character, of the girl-on

ness, the ready sympathies, the
sprightly humor; within the honest
heart and the limits with a touch
of pride) beyond which none may
go. There are intelligence and even

through it all and heightening it the
SAVIOR Of a pleasantly perverse and
penetrating personality. To even
the frequently inert humors of q
book by Mrs. Rida Young, Miss
Gateson can give freshening and
animating savor. Her skill matches
her spirit-and condolences and
still more personalities of the musi-
cal plays are so few"

The Real Hart Seen

There are men in the world who
love often and briefly; there are
those who despise everything FEM
mime; there are men who say they
owe at %, only to admit at the ex-
piration of few years of conjugal
bliss that there ain'tsno such thing
as love-"
And then there are men who
cherish in their hearts the vision
of an ideal woman who will love
them for themselves alone Bill
Hart-William S. Hart, the cinema
star-belongs to the latter class,
says the Motion Picture Magazine.
He doesn't realize all this and if
he did, it is doubtful whether he
would admit it. but when he is be-
fore one, HIS tall, straight, spare
figure garbed in English tweeds and
speaks in his slow. soft drawL in
stinctively feels that here is a
business man. here is a financier,
who is perhaps a trifie tired of the
Struggle to outdo the bulls and the
bears.
And IL the time ever comes when
he can leave the treadmill of affairs,
he will, as he says, Chamber up
into the mountains and sleep in a
tent, under Gods sky to be alone
and rest. to hear the coyotes yell
and to have a privacy beneath the
stars"
As he paints the picture, one
imagines the finishing touches.
There should be a girl-a girl who
is old-fashioned and feminine, to
soothe his tired head in the cradle
of her arms, a woman who doesn't
even know Bill Hart, whose fame
stretches over the earth. but whose
kingdom exists in being this mans
wife because he is her mate.

When Marjorie Gateson, who halls

there appeared in the Transcript an
unusual appreciation of her ability.
New to Boston," said the Transcript.
"and not too well known in New

not buxom and buoyant; no more is
she girlish and kittenish. As comeli-

as mobile to pose. as quick to animat-

Her speaking voice in turn, more
plant. warmer. more colorful than is
the wont in these pieces, has indi-
vidual favor as well. Her intonations
and infections fall upon the ear with

even the commonplace text of mu-

they recall in quality the curious and
