GERALDINE FARRAR'S LOVE STORY

dent of birth Today she is one of the
 peoples favorites."
 Geraldine Farrar was born in Melrose,
 Mass. Her father was Sydney J. Farrar, her mother having been before her mar riage Miss Etta M Barnes of Stoneham.
 Miss Farrar really inherited her musical
 talents from her family, because her | mother was a choir singer of note and
 an enthusiastic musician, and her father.
 after he gave up baseball, devoted a
 great deal of time to music. singing in the choir of the Uniyersalist Church at Merose.
 1 It is told how Geraldine Farrar was able to carry a tune perfectly when she
 was only years old but little thought
 was given to music for the little one" l in those days, because just about this 1 time sid Farrar went on the road with the Philadeiphians and very often he took
 his baby daughter with him. She was
 idollzed in Philadelphia, and she says i that she owes much of her boise and | self-possesson to the training she re- ceived in those early days of hotel life
 and of constantly, though only a baby, meeting strangers
 1 When Geraldine was 8 years old her | father "forsook'' the diamond and went l iato business in Melrose. For the first | time Geraldine went regularly to school. l Her mother used to take her to the | tubo cbe ,ltth har ! wan not considered seriously by the 1 father, who saw no money in a high ] soprano" He was rather sorry Geral- , dine was a girl, so that he might make 1 a baseball player out of her The mother, 1 however, thought differently and being of a somewhat romantic disposition, sent l a lock of her daughters hair to as- ] then years old.
 i The horoscope cast by this dealer in | fGturities was a very remarkable one, ] as it informed the mother that her 1 daughter was born i'll the planet of Mer- cury when music was at it's height; that she would study music at home and in I Turope that she would be one of the 1 greatest singers of the twentieth century;
 that her throat was wonderfully perfect l and that she would have one great sick 1 ness. The father regarded it all as non 1 sense and the girl continued to attend 1 the grammar school. where she was
 known as the best singer in her class. ! The little girl made her first public | appearance in 1894, when she was 12. A 1 lccal musician had written little operet- l ta called Market Day" and to Geral | dine was given the part of a tambourine 1 girl. Half-frightened children piped their parts weakly, terrified by the sea of 1 faces before them, but not so with .Jer- l ry,,' who sang out in a strong voice, en- tirely without embarrassment. She threw everyone else in the shade and all the
 mothers promptly voted her nasty lit- 1 tie forward girl, who marred the per I formance and exposed the stupidity of | their own children. But the discerning
 ones recognized potentialities in the 1 child

Prior to entering the army he was in the editorial rooms of the St. Louis Post Dispatch. He ,also was connected with the New York World and the San Francisco Examiner.
 There are many members who are unable to attend the meetings of the local post, and it is the desire of the post to keep these members informed as to what the legion is trying to ac- complish and to let them know what the various committees that have been appointed are accomplishing.

existence as we know it here. Her characterization of foreign types has been carefully studied, but they do not seem to be felt. The child in this case is more human than anything she has previously done and in consequence Is far more effective. She may have called for "a play to suit me-" but she is coming close to finding one that suits all of us.
 It is Nazimova who extracts from the old material of "The Heart of a Child" the new material of modern drama With tremendous vigor, she portrays a little heroine of the highest type. The child has to struggle against the brand and scars of mean heredity. She is up against the most difficult entanglements of circumstance. She is wholly outside the barriers set up by good society. It is true that she is assisted by chance, but her greatest struggle is with herself. Her whole soul is circumscribed by childish i'm pulse. In her sorest temptation she has only the inherent good of her sex to protect her, secret whisperings of the infinite arther than of conscience On that she wins her way.
 Nazimova has gotten at those ten dencies which underlie nearly all of 1 our emotions when we are children | She is B child in every movement and ] expression, the soul of youth in al ! she does. This time she appears tC 1 feel as well as act, and the effect 1. ! to warm hearts as well as excite ad- miration for her skill. Sympathetic
 support from Charles Bryan as LorC
 Kidderminster helps amazingly. Clair' Du Brey is admirable in a difficul
 role. The entire cast acts in nice har l mony with the spirit of the story, th' human element overlapping all other to the extent that it might be callet
 a brilliant interpretation of tho com
 monplace.
 "The Heart of a Child" now play
 ing at Mauk's Columbia Theatel
 should rank as Nazimova's best scree1
 work.

2O0 YOUNG WOMEN
 OUT OF WORK HERE
 SPEAKER DECLARES

That there are at the present time not less than 200 young women out of work in Phoenix was the statement made at the dinner of the BuEiness and Professional Woman's club in the First Methodist church last night by Maud ". Makemson, who recently com pleted an investigation of local con- ditions.
 Mrs. Mae Wilder, head of the Gregg Shorthand school; Paul J. Curry, man ager of the local Underwood Typewriter agency; and Mrs. Sallie L. Goodrich, in charge of the woman's division of the United States employment service, were among the authorities quoted by the speaker Of the various agencies usually resorted to by stenographers and typists for keeping in touch with openings in local business houses, Mrs. Makemson declared the United States employment service is the only one at the present time which even takes the names and applications of office as- sistants in search of work.
 All the other. including the type writer agencies and the business col leges, have been forced to refuse to take the names of applicants, since | they have nothing to offer in return | Of the 200 or so girls who are now out of work in Phoenix, about 25 per cent are of local families Most of these
 have been turned off within the pas
