You Can't Keep a
Squirrel on the Ground,

very striking example OF the old
saying that You can't keep a SPUR
rell on tho ground" and also that
Everything happens for the best is
excmplified in the career OF Edward
Clark, author of Little Miss Char
ity," which opens an engagement at
the Shubert-Garrick tonight.
AS very young man Mr.. Clark was
a vaudeville actor who had n very
successful act in which he appeared
with several young women in an
amusing skit, in facr. one of the most
prctentious acts Of that period, with
which he played at all the leading
vaudeville theaters OF the country,
until for some reason he incurred the
ermity OF the powers that be in
vaudeville and became one of the
hcadlincrs on their well known and
much discussed blacklist" which il
said to have kept many n good act
from the eyes of the public.
Mr.. Clark was obliged to cast about
him for some other means of getting
on in the profession. Having pro-
duCed and written his own acts, he
felt that he could stage and write
a full-length play, which, he proceed
Cd to DO. and after some discourage
ments finally saw the production Of
Deluxe Annie" which achieved con-
siderable success especially for the
maiden effort of an unknown author.
Encouraged by this he next produced
you're In Love-" a musical comedy Of
the delicate and modern school, which
ran for an entire season in New York,
and several more on the road.

great success followed and now his

History of Remarkable
Singer in "Chu Chin Chow.

A singer who has had one OF the
r,os, remarkable careers ever known
in the theatrical business Is IN the
cast of "Chu Chin Chow the Husicui
extravaganza which +, Ray Com toch
and Morris Gest will present, at foiih
Theater. This is hts first appearance
upon the stage, and for an entire
season in New York he delighted the
audiences at the Century Theater
with n beautiful rendition of the Cop
bler's Song in the last act OF Gnu
Chin Chow" His name is Fellce dc
Gregorio, and audiences marvel at his
splendid voice.
They will be surprised to learn that
lust before the production or ~ hu
Chin Chow" Mr.. de Gregorio worked
in Waterbury, Conn, in factory
which makes speciality OF producing
high-class pottery. In TINS factory
Mr.. de Gregorio received $3.50 day.
In "Chu Chin Chow" he receives eS-
actIy 100 times that much % compen-
sation for one weeks services.
The way in which Mr.. de GreGorio
adopted a stage career is an interest
ing and instructive lesson for all VINO
are ambitious to succeed. The young
man is OF Italian descent. and came
to this country as O small boy, MS
parents settling in waterbury. FROM
the time he was old enough to work
he had a position in the pottery rae
tory, and day after day he labored
making little vases and ornamental
pottery, and as he worked he sang.
He was gifted with n naturally beau
tiful voice, which, as ne grew older.
developed into a high baritone or
ma gnificent quality. His fame spread
throughout Waterbury's many
churches, who were anxious to secure
his services. He sang in church
choirs for several years, still worhins
in the factory.
One day he decided to visit New
York, and some of the 'bcst-known
teachers heard him sing. He made
such a tremendous hit that Morris
Gest, then about to produce "Chu
Chin Chow" sent for him and offered
him the role of the cobblcr in the last
act On the opening night Mr. de
Gregorio proved veritable sensa-
ton. He has been on the stage now
for more than a year. and is under
contract with Messrs. Comstock and
Gest for four years more. Mr.. de
Gregorio is twenty-four years of age,
but in "Chu Chin Chow" he is called
upon to impersonate an eyed man,
