Going After Better Tenure Regu-

Chicago, ILL. Jan. 1S.-The execu- tive council of the American Fedora ton of Teachers. following action ta- ken at the recent convention of tho or ganization held in St. Paul. is launch- ing a nation-wide campaign for better tenure legislation for teachers. State legislatures will be asked to remedy existing conditions relative to the em- ploymont and retention of teachers, who believe that injustice lies in tho prevailing system. The American Fed erRtton of Teachers authorities assert that remedial legislation will go far towards raising the standard of the teaching profession, inasmuch as it will obviate arbitrary dismissal of competent teachers by autocratic boards of education.

Europe's Actors Prepare to

Lean Prospects ON the Continent Inspire Artists to

ALI Are Learning English

Can you use an operate BARITONE

Have you an opening for concert

sario who ventures on &he continent Of
Europe these days is faced everywhere
with the same barrage. French actors,
Dutch actors, German, Austrian and

rical engagements in America, and in
preparation for a future Of peace and
plenty are engaged in the same pur-
suit: Learning to speak English.

Grand OPERA" once said q wit, 'has
its Nieblungen Ring, and comic opera
its Blanche Ring" Since then comic
opera has given way to musical comedy,
and that to the intimate revue. But
Miss Ring, moving with the tide of
public taste in things theatrical, still
stands foremost as coincidence and in
terpreter of popular songs.
Still young, vivacious and charming.
Miss Rings list of professional achieve
ments is an amazingly long one, and
includes every form of theatrical en-
tertainment from vaudeville to Shake
speare.
Like the Rarrymores, she comes of
old stage stock, for her. great-great-
grandfather, Charles Fisher, came from
England to introduce into this country
the caravan idea Of theatrical enter
tainment, and toured as far west as the
then distant Mississippi with band of
venturesome players, Drawing many
hardships and perils while they gave
repertoire of standard and classic
dramas. The son, Charles Fisher ir.,
carried on the work after the death of
his father. Miss Rings grandfather.
James, H. Ring, was for thirty years
principal comedian at the Boston Mu-
scum, and his wife, who began her
stage career at the age of two, played
with him, often appearing as Lady
Macbeth and contributing songs and
dances between the acts.
Made Her Debut
With Richard Mansfield
If James Rings children felt the call
OF the stage they ignored it. The son
married Ross Of Rossshire, just out
side Edinburgh, closely related to
Lord Colin Campbell and Lord Clyde.

But War Made Him am Actor

To paraphrase the song Of few sea.
sons back, this would be different story
if Edwin Hensley hadn't had to "pack
| his ambition in his old kit bag ano
| fight, fight, fight" For it was through
taking a little jaunt to France for the
purpose of walloping the Central Pow.
ers that Hensley has found his place in
Broadway theater in one of the COM
edy hits of the season.
Where this young actor came from is
a matter Of no Importance in this story
1t was where he went that landed him
back of the footlights.
Back in his native small town Hensley
was a leading light in the annual ANA
teur theatrical productions. He was al
ways the best actor in the cast, always
the fellow urged by his fellow citizens
to Ego on the stage"
Eds father was of different mind
The elder Hensley decided that the
younger Hensley was cut out for bust
ness man and not after the pattern of
an actor. And although the young
man argued the point the paternal idea
remained Interchangeable.
Then along came the war. And that
scrimmage, as has been pointed out on
numerous occasions, changed the plans
of quite a few individuals. 1t inter
fered with young Hensley's business
career, picked him up and sat him down
at the Plattsburg officers training camp.
There he learned the art of teaching the

to the stage, was carefully analysed
at rehearsal and she also opened at
the first performance as prima
donna. Mr.. Anderson was non-com-
initial when asked if he was to give
the stage new prima donna this sea-
son; but ono thing he did say was.
Any young lady who shows she has
talent Will receive the recognition she
justly merits, and am only too glad
to help her advance"
A very busy time was this particular
rehearsal for Richard Dolliver. the
general stage director. He was here.
there and everywhere, but his real
work came when Mr.. Anderson took
up the lighting effects. Those who
have seen the Greenwich Village Fol
lies" will recall the unusual and beau
tiful effects in stage lighting, and this
was one Of the interesting THINGS If
the rehearsal.
Mr. Anderson explained he never
picks his lighting to encompass a cir
Gle on the stage floor on either side
without the rays of light crossing,
Some producers use this cross light
ing, and Mr.. Anderson demonstrated
now they lose its value by not mask
ing in the lights as he does, to keen
the rays off that part of the scenery
fccing the audience.
Would Do Away
With the Front Lights
The rehearsal of stage lighting is
important. One thinks of rehearsal
and the people in the cast at the same
time, but if you spend an evening at
rehearsal of the "Greenwich Village
Follies 1921" you will see how very
little the general public knows of the
details Of real rehearsal. The gem
eral idea is that stage lighting just
happens. AS they worked, Mr.. Ander-
son explained: 81 would do away with
the front lights altogether, but owing
to present electrical equipment in the
theater and its limited scope, situa-
tlons often occur where I find front
lighting must be used" And then he
demonstrated how he was prepared
Tor just such an emergency. AS Mr..
Anderson worked with the lights Mr..
Dolliver made notes. The director
was never satisfied until he had a per.
feet combination of colors in har-
mony with the scenes and costumes.

Blanche, their daughter, was to have
taken her place in English society, but
Thespis called, and Immediately after
her graduation from the Girls Latin
School in Boston she made her pro-
fessional debut as a member of Rich
ard Mansfield's company, in revival
of "a Partisan Romance" at the Boston
Museum. She was just one day over
sixteen then, but before her seven
teenth birthday she had played with
Nat Goodwin, Steele Mackaye, Neil
Burgess and Chauncey Olcott besides
several weeks in Shakespearean rep
ertoire.
Some Of the Songs That
Miss Ring Made Famous
Mrs. Osborne gave the girl role in
"Tommy Rotp at her famous playhouse
and on the opening night Blanche
Ring ran away with the show the way
she sang "The Belle of Avenue A."
Song and singer became famous over
night. But Miss Ring scored another
triumph that night. Daniel Frohman
was in the audience and saw her trav-
esty Of Virginia Harned's "Tris." He
was so impressed that he offered the
girl the star role in another Girls" COM
pany, but ON the same day Mrs. Os-
borne put the name Of Blanche Ring up
i'll the electric letters over the door Of
the theater and Mr.. Frohman's offer
was declined.
From that time on Miss Ring has
made just one song after another ia
nous, while at the same time building
another big reputation for the excel
lence of her travesties of famous dra-
matte roles. In 1.-THE Jersey Lily" she
sang "Bedelia" into the hearts of the
public, while in "His Honor the Mayor
