Miss Alice Hills Was
In Old ThriLIers and
Am0SSed IFS Parts

The dark secrets in the past life
of Alice Hills, character actress with
Take 1t From Me-" have been kept
from the suffering public long
enough, so here goes-the whole
blooming story, true in all its null
tifafious details.
Alice Hills puts on the grotesque
costume of a middle-aged spinster,
and with bespectacled nose and flat
shoes and other hideous auNiliaries.
Where does this singular person
come from?'> asks the fat man after
he has recovered his equilibrium.
III bet shes all old timer"
Alice Hills is singular person, i'll
as much as she has never taken the
mad storm and strife dive into the
sea of matrimony, and she is an old
timer, I'll bet she is not so old as
4 lot of persons might think. But as
to the mooted questions as to where
alice Hills comes from, here's
Secret No |: She comes from
the old Gilliss, the home of the old
hair raising melodramas, that's one
of the places she come from, but She
comes, in fact, fromsa lot of places.
For one thing-and going back
earlier than the old melodrama day
Alice Hills did her dodads il,
Uncle Toms Cabin" and >as Little
Eva, she died consistently for 1000
consecutive nights. Child parts were
stepping stones to the lurid drama
and when Alice was II years old
she entered on the payroll of Harry
Clay Blaney. and for the three OF
four years that followed she drew
tears from the multitudes that loved
those old dramas of great adventure
mortgaged homesteads, sleek-hairec
villains, blind heroines, and stalwart
and daredevil heroes.
All! Those were the good old
days. "The Wolves of New York.
THE Child Slave of New York,
"The Kidnapers," The Queen o.
Chinatown" c 1.-THE Limited Mail" and
THE Dairy Farm" were of the titles
of those fine and topsy-turvey, hair.
splitting, nerve-splitting. heart-break.
ing dramas of the good old days"
Alice Hills survived those days but
take it from the veteran stage car.
penter. her life, throughout each sea
son of 40 weeks, was just one derned
narrow escape after another.
"They do those things, now, in the
pictures" said Alice Hills, "and I'm
not as tender as | used to be, so
| leave the work y a younger gen.
Grafton.
"But don't let the impression get
out that | am all old woman. Put
emphasis on the fact that l jumped
from the cradle to the stage, and
have been earning my living that
way ever since. Tell. them I'm IS
years old, and have the family Bible
up in Rochester, N. Y, to prove it.'
