Boston Post Publishes Interesting
Interview With MiddIebury Girl

OF considerable local interest was the
interview with lane Grey recently pub
lisheh by the Boston Post, There may
have been many who did not read the
metropolitan papers appreciation Of
the Middlebury girl who is now star
ring in "The Skin Game" at the Ply
mouth theatre in Boston and for their
benefit the story OF Mamie Larock is
reproduced in The Register. There
was a large photograph that accom-
panied the Post article,
Woman-1the greatest thing on
earth And their champion isn't one
of the opposite sex who says it just
merely to be chivalrous or diplomatic
This time it comes from one OF them
selves, who has worked and struggled
and sympathized with her sisters, and
who says that after stage career,
where she has rubbed Shows with a
goodly proportion of both men and
women, her hat is off to the women
every time.
"Women Wonderful
"Women are so wonderful" said
lane Grey; for it is the gifted star of
Galsworthy's "The Skin Game, now
playing at the Plymouth, who is the
champion of her sex. "They endure and
hope and love so much. Mothers are
so much more wonderful than fathers.
ITO be a good mother is to be the
nearest embodiment to perfection that
we can have in human form She
can bear the burdens of the hardest
day like a soldier for the sake of her
loved ones. Even her sleeping hours
are interrupted to give thought and
worry to them. 1t is not so with a
man. Because he lacks that perfect
instinct for utterly selfish love a man
can never rise to the high plane of
womanhood"
Worked Hard for Suffrage
Nor did Miss Grev fail to bestir
herself where the practical issues in
volving women were at stake. She
worked hard for suffrage Now that it
is attained. she says it seems like the
work is only Just begun-at least for
the woman who would keep pace with
the possibilities that enfranchsement
has brought to her sex.
ON politics all women ought to be
free lances. Tied up with a party,
they can only effect the same unsatis-
factory results that men have been
obtaining since the founding of this
republic Free to swing with the best
man and best policy, woman can really
have the deciding voice in government.
Doesn't Intend to Remarry
Seeing women earn their own living
on the stage convinced Miss Grey that
suffrage was really a natural and right
thing. She says she would be the last
person in the world to urge woman to
anything that would prevent her from
preserving the integrity OF her infiu-
ence. After she had discovered, how
ever, how many women OF the stage
there were who listened, not for the
applause of the moment that came to
them when the curtain fell but found
their only satisfaction in the applause
that came to them from the fact that
in their own hearts they knew they
were living up to the best traditions of
lHelHStlVeS anu lHtll dl u Sic lCll SuIC
that woman would not lose her bal
ance in the midst of these wider and
newer freedoms,
A widow since she was II is Jane /,
Grey. She says that she never in
tends to remarry.
Lady Jane Grey may have lost her
head, but this lane Grey won't" was
her whimsical way of putting the stu

Endorses Actors Equity
The Actors Equity Association she
believes to be the best influence on the
stage today Because it is just it will
succeed. 1t will reap good to managers
as well as actors. 1t will make for
moral unfit The chorus girl who in
financial desperation was previously
driven to do things that made her life
a blot on the name of actress is safe
