WAS married to Henry b. Harris in
October. 1898. An interview with her

Admits Earl Williams

If you want to talk to Earl Williams
you've got to catch him in the studio
preferably when he is eating in the
middle of the day, because at other
times he is terribly busy dressing or
acting or answering the telephone or
buying bonds or ordering clothes or
reading scripts. No. none of this is
hearsay. Ask us-we know. having at

before.

When We arrived at the studio Mr..
Williams was not there. Some one out
side said: mo, and he isn't going to
work to-day at all. He's at home"
Now. VIC know from bitter experience
that stars will do this if you don't
watch them, but an interview with Tom
Jerriss rcassured us.
BY II o'clock every ono was working
and Florence Dixon, the leading lady,
had changed her costume three times.
Barry Baxter had taken off his riding
things and was wearing what he says
Americans call "Tuxedo.' but VIC
assured him that they did not any
more than they all say "noive"
Mr. Terriss took close-ups and long
shots and stills and people rushed of

and with subtle grace We asked "Whcn

ooh, but we must wait for Mr.
Williams" protested Barry Baxter.
"All right" we answered. You wait
and we'll cat" But we hadn't been
sitting in the restaurant more than
two minutes when Mr.. Baxter followed
us in with the information that Mr.
Williams had arrived, but that he
didn't have time to eat because he had
to dress.
Just as we wcrc about to seize him
Mr. Terriss said, "Now everybody.

while they drank tea and conversed

"What kind of play do you like
besto" Mrs Harris was asked.
"Melodrama," she answered, with
hardly a moments hesitation.
Since her husbands tragic death,
when the Titanic struck an iceberg in
1912, Mrs. Harris has produced plays
under the direction, the announcements
stated, Of the Estate Of Henry B.
Harris. Last Wednesday evening, for
the first time since she assumed active
management OF the estate, which owns
three theaters in this city, the Hudson,
the Harris and the Fulton, she pro
duccd play under her own name. The
play is big Game" by Willard Robert
son and Kilbourn Gordon, now at the
Fulton Theater.
For eight years Mrs. Harris has been
schooling herself in the practical
things of play production. and now she
GENTLY to stand sponsor for her own
productions. She continued:
"Mr. Harris took me into his closest
confidence, and all his plans and ideas
about tho thcater were known to me.
We read plays together and made dccl-
sions together. But there were many
things about the thcater that | did not
know in the carly days. My husband
would delight in poking good d-naturcd
fun at me when would show ICY igno
rance. One day at rehearsal the stage
director complained about the apron

Not ono Of them was wearing an apron.

laughing heartily at my expense he
explained that tho apron was part OF
the stage. SO you see | had much to
learn.

have never wanted TO 20 on the stage.
All my knowledge of tho thcatcr. up to
the time of my husbands death. had
been gained through association with
him. Fortunately, he left me with a

wonderfully loyal. BY close study and
concentration have attempted to learn
the things | felt were necessary.
have been directing many of the produc-
ttions and have suggested changes in
plays which have been carried out to
advantage.
But until Big Game | did not feel
confident enough TO put on a play
under my own name. Now. however,
| believe ! am able to stand behind my
productions with my name.
The first play produced by the Estate
OF Henry B. Harris was BrieuX's
"Damagcd Goods" with Richard Ben
nett. But tho name Harris was not
used in connection with the venture,
Mrs. Harris explained but tho Richard
BcOnott Players were ostcnsibly be-
hihd the production. She went on:
"On the steamer to Europe read
damaged Goods and was so i'm
pressed with it that urged Mr. Harris
to bring it out in Now York. He
agreed but never lived to do il. |
did not think it would be wise TO use
the name Of Estate Of Henry B. Harris
in connection with the play because it
was known that l. q woman, had just
assumed management of the estate.
"Many times it has been suggested
to me that ! give up producing. 1t is
