messages that federal troops were

cheers from the embattled miners.
Word of the governments action was
rushed up to the firing line and

Everywhere 1t was the signal to stop
fighting. Miners had declared they
would continue fighting until regular
soldiers come. They declared they
could not obtain justice under coun-

guards and hired detectives until the

Pauline Lord:
The Story of a
Hopkins Star

Here Is another theatrical star who
disregards all the laws Of astronomy
by rising in the West to shine in the
East. She is Pauline Lord, who has
been striking fire from the flint of
Eugene O'Neills great play, "Anna
Christie at the Vanderbilt Theater.
By no stretch Of imagination can
Pauline Lords biographer make the
blithe announcement that she leaped
into fame overnight. In fact, the line
"She woke up to find herself famous"
is usually pleasant fiction. Most
geniuses arrive at fame through "long
days Of labor and nights devoid of
ease," and, Miss Lord is captain in
these ranks Of industry. Fame has
hovered over her standards for five
years now. First she arrested atten-
tion in "The Deluge," play that came
and went so quickly that there was no
chance for the great public to become
conscious of the quality of the stars
work in it. 1t came to town on q
torrid summer night and was suffo-
Gated in the August heat. Both play
and star deserved better hearing, and
some day Arthur Hopkins may decide
to restage this work.
Last season Miss Lord appeared with
Ben-Ami in Samson and Delilah" and
shared the honors Of that triumph with
him. But though she may have sur
prised New York by her spectacular
rise, managers who had been following
her career were not astonished.
Miss Lord was born on fruit ranch
in the San Joaquin Valley in Califor-
MIA, and while she was still school

Always Orange
Blossoms for
Ivy Sawyer

It's no use. Ivy Sawyer now dancing
and singing her way through Irving
Berlin's "Music Box Revue" simply
can't be hailed away from the orange
blossoms. Ever since the days when
Raymond Hitchcock imported her from
London to play in "Betty" with Jo-
seph Santley, sho has appeared some-
time during eveey production she has
played in white tulle and pearls, with
all tho usual accessories in the way
Of Veifs and lilies-of -the-valley.
When she was doing Betty" with
Mr.. Santley they became so accustomed
to being married at the end Of the
play that when the show closed they
felt quite lost and so homesick for the
little church around the corner that
in sheer desperation they went off and
did 1t in earnest. They haven't recov-
cred yet, for that was four years back,
and 1t has never seemed to. dawn on
these young people that their honey
moon should have been over long ago.
When they appeared in ooh, Boy"
the first Of the explanatory musical
comedies, they were, on the stage and
in real life, newlyweds so new that
Miss Sawyer was still in the bride
class. In "She's Good Fellow" they
went back to the white tulle and cut
away coat, and even when they went
into vaudeville in their "Bits and
Pieces" she clung, literally and fig
uratively, to her bridal bouquet.
When they first joined forces with
Hassard Short, under whose direction
they are now appearing at the Music
Box, they were featured in very
successful vaudeville turn named
"Klick Klick," in which, strangely
enough, Miss Sawyer appeared as a
bride
The theory that she is the most per-
sistent bride on the American stage
is confirmed by the fact that in Irving
Berlin's "Music Box Revue" she plays
the part of bride, even though she is
first obliged to get divorce to do it.
And after the decree is granted by a
speedy and accommodating court down
drops Miss Sawyer's little blue wrap
to disclose her in the inevitable white
satin and pearls.
Will they become so accustomed to
being divorced, as they became accus-
toned to getting married, that some
time in the next year or two, when the
Music Box Revue" closes, they will
feel impelled to get a real honest-to-
goodness divorce?
Probably not, for, in spite of those
four years of being Mrs. Joseph SAINT
ley, Ivy Sawyer feels perennially, un-
'avoidably and irresistibly a bride.
New-York tribune., 1921-11-20
In "Rigolcsso,'' Saturday after
noon, Metropolitan Opera House

girl played bits In the famous Alcazar
stock company in San Francisco. When
Nat Goodwin was touring the Pacific
Coast with Edna Goodrich. she, by the
power of her own persistence, attached
herself to his company as an under
study. During the ensuing tour Miss
Goodrich was indisposed at intervals
and Miss Lord played opposite Mr..
Goodwin in a variety Of roles. For
two more seasons she remained in his
company. and through watching him
and working with him she learned the
technique Of acting.
Next she took an engagement with
the Milwaukee stock company. begin
ming at $50 week, and within a year
she became the leading woman. Ruth
Chattcrton was also taking her primary
steps as an actress in this same COM
pany, and two years 'later she and
Pauline Lord were rival leading ladies
in the cities Of Springfield and
Worcester, Mass.
New York managers heard Of her
work, and when Mary Ryan retired
from the cast Of "On Trial." during its
New York run, she succeeded her and
so came under the direction of Arthur
hopkins for the first time. Next she
was the leading figure in "The Talker,"
the last play produced by Henry B.
Harris before his tragic end in the
Titanic disaster. Arthur Hopkins then
chose "The Deluge" for her, and she
also won acclaim in Maxim Gorky's
might Lodging" which Mr.. Hopkins
produced at special matinees two sea-
sons ago. He has now reaffirmed his
faith in her by choosing her for the
most important wonan's role in any
play Of the season. And Miss Lord has
surely justified that faith.
