dance steps and began to take my
elocution lessons. AT the age of four
teen my real troubles began. My
father decided that the stage was no
place for his daughter My obstinacy
prompted him to hold a family con-
ference, which was attended by every
prominent Binney in Philadelphia and
New York. 1t was decided that the
only way to cure me would be to ship
me off to convent in small town
near Paris-no, not in New York, but
in France. So there l was sent to
romp with the children of Europe's
titled families. Bored after while,

to England for an operation. After
leaving the hospital I was taken to
Scotland, entertained by q score of
other Binneys and then placed on
boat bound for home.
"My folks then decided to send me to
a finishing school at Westover Corn,
and so to school l went. During a
charity fete, at which l rendered 4
series OF dances, winthrop Ames, who
was present. made quite a lucrative
offer for my services, which I readily
accepted. The rest of my story is very
uninteresting. For two years I did
nothing but understudy a group of
actresses who refused to be absent
from single performance. Tiring of
this inactive life, | sought real en-
gagement and succeeded in getting one
as a dancer in the .Oh, Lady, Lady
company, then being organized. For
seventeen months l toured with this
organization, after playing for a few
months at the Princess Theater in New
York. A few months of motion picture
work followed-and here l am. How
did I secure the part? The whole
thing was an accident. Miss Crothers
and Mr.. Hull had already tried out
some twenty-seven other applicants
and had found them unsuitable. Word
came to me from some friends about
the opening, and so | sought an intro
duction to Mr. Hull. After few try
outs he decided that l was ideally
suited for the part. Mr.. Lee Shubert
then placed me under contract.
Let me make it emphatic that what
ever success l have achieved is due, in
great measure, to the kind efforts Of
Miss Crothers and Mr.. Hull"

Georges Carpenter Makes
Debut i'm Interesting Film
Under Legion's Patronage

The smiling young French prize
fighter-actor, Georges Carpenter, need
have no fear as to his popularity In the
United States. Having been a soldier,
and good one, when his country was
in danger, ho is welcomed here at every
hand, and the latest compliment to be
paid him is that by the New York
County CHAPTER of the American
Legion, when that organization voted a
few days ago TO take charge of his
motion picture debut.
Carpenters first appearance on the
screen, in society drama called "Thc
Wonder Man" took place in the grand
ballroom of the Hotel Astor last
and is under the direction of the
American Legion Of New York County.
Announcement to this effect was made
by Henry Buxton, chairman of the
New York County Legion, after con-
ference with officials of Robertson
Cole, which is presenting Carpenter in
& million dollar attraction.
Mr.. Buxton explained that the exec
utive committee Of the New York
County Legion had voted at its last
meeting to take charge of the Carpen-
tier showings in the grand ballroom of
the Astor and appointed a special COM
mittee to handle the affair. This com
mittee is composed of Colonel Nicholas
Engel, chairman; William K. Doggett,
Edgar II; Felix and Sidney Gumperts.
The New York County Legion will
be more than glad to take charge Of the
first showings Of the Carpenter pic
ture." said Mr. Buxton. "Personallv
l consider Carpenter model type Of
manhood. He fought we'll, he was
cry. Not until the signing Of the
armistice did Carpenter lay down his
arms to return to civil life. And, now
mat ne mas come to the United States,
we; as Legion members, are glad to
welcome him as a brother soldier"

Remember Human PLAY
Longer Than Others,
Says Cyril Keiglltley

There are two kinds of plays and
two kinds Of artists always in the
world of the theater to interpret them;
they may be divided into two classes
said Cyril Keightley in a recent inter
view at Maxine Elliott's Theater, where
he is acting in the new American play
by Anne Crawford Flexner, entitled
"All Souls Eve"
"They are the charlatan, the actor
who depends upon the dramatic situa-
tions in, the play alone to get over his
message, and the man Of more flexible
genius, who depends upon the power
of words and who digs deep into the
walls of truth to bring up the shining
rocks of realism for his audience, as
we'll as pouring the soothing syrup
sounds of traditional romanticism
down their throats.
"ln the psychical drama, of which
All Souls Eve is among the first i'm
portant additions, there are such plays
that depends upon ouija boards and
other such wheezy sentimentalities
employed by the earthly curious to
evoke it's dead, and then there is the
play like All Souls Eve,' which cries
out against such stage trickery hereto
fore employed, but rather tends to
direct its message into the more
human conduits of the hearts and
minds of its audiences. Not preaching
psychics, this play of Mrs. Flexners
does preach a message, although
heavily veiled, enough not to get in
the way Of the action and plot of the
play itself. I know in my own expert
ence of watching plays that l rarely
appreciate while in the theater the
salient points upon which the play
touches. 1t is only after come home
at night and think over again what
have seen that its true import is borne
home to me. Such plays that survive
IN the mind for months are the plays
which are built upon truth and not
upon pure dramatic situations. which

after two or three seasons, in the

we didn't know that we were casting
our bread on the waters, and if we
had we should never have guessed
that it was the waters Of Saranac

And now we have a standing invita-

the big theater here, corresponding to

There is real romance in the pres

er who has gained distinction and fams
throughout the world for his Leader
ship and his compositions. When tba
great bandmaster first determined to
leave Willow Grove and Asbury Park
and play throughout the summer a.
Coney Island. his friends and MANY
persons of the fashionable set in the
two former places urged him to re-
consider.
You'll ruin your name" they said
to him.
"Oh, but l won't" returned the band
man. And then he told few o.
them how, when he was a young man
just II years old-he was playing at
Manhattan Beach with John Philip
Sousa, with whom he remained until
1900. During those years Mr.. Pryor
practiced each morning on his from
bone. In his spare time he walked
over 10 Luna Park and Il was there
that his great ambition caused him to
determine to conduct and own his own
band, and in 1902 he organized the
famous Arthur Pryor's Prize Band at
Sheepshead Bay. His first engagement
was at Madison Souare Garden, where
ne created a Juror among musical cir

He then started a worlds tour. and

So, you see, Luna Park has an at

A Measure of National Security.

Right of way should he given IN the
House of Representative to the bill
which passed the Senate Saturday de-

tious persons in this country. Such q
law is urgently needed by the govern
ment for its protection. In recent
efforts to combat the evil of radical
ism difficulty has been found in cop
ing with those of native birth or nat
uralized citizenship engaged in harm
ful propaganda. Alien radicals may
be deported, but the others can under
the present laws remain here. and un-
less they engage in actually treason
able works they enjoy full liberty of
speech and action. The Attorney Gen
eral has urged legislation that Will
put all sedition mongers, whether
alien or native, into the same class,
There are many people today who
are saying: "Why not try the soviet
here9 What harm is there III this
experiments 1t may be good thing
after all.' This receptive attitude is
the result of the whisperings and
preachings of propagandists, mostly
from abroad, who are trying to weak
en- the morale of the American people.
They are presenting their arguments
in seductive form. To the discomfort
ed they address themselves in terms
of insinuation and incitement. To
those who regard themselves as philo-
sophical and somewhat detached OBJ
servers of events and students Of af-
fairs, they appeal as ''intellectuals.'
Everything is grist in the mill Of the
bolshevik agitator and agent-dissat-
isfaction, disappointment, uneasiness,
disgruntlement, avarice, ambition, en-
w, hatred and malice. The red propa-
ganda is conducted with diabolical
cleverness to reach all these factors.
This is not to say that the people
of the country are not sound. An i'm
mense majority of them are perfectly
satisfied with this form of government.
They want no change. But they are
not aroused to the danger. A small
and active minority can make much
trouble. The revolution in Russia that
led to the present red rule there was
conducted by comparative handful
of fanatical theorists.
Nothing else pending in Congress
today is so urgent as this bill, de-
signed to enable the government to
protect itself and the mass Of people
from this peril Of sedition and revolt,
and its passage at the earliest possible
date is necessary as measure of ma
tional security.
