HE MUST HAVE BEEN A MAN

HE MUST HAVE BEEN A MAN
 Edith Wharton, the writer, told this war story: "The American wounded were being brought in from the sec- ond Marne battle," she said, "and a fussy American woman in khaki uni form and Sam Browne belt knelt over a stretcher and said, Is this case an officer or only man?' The brawny corporal who stood beside the stretch CT gave her a grim laugh and said: "Well, lady, he aint no officer, but he's been hit twice in the innards, both legs busted, he's got two bullets in both arms, and we dropped him three times without his lettin' out a squeak, so guess ye can call him man.

While in Rome during his recent trip

Mrs. Bllrt's Second
Novel on Film at
Capitol Theater

Katherine Newlin Burt is all wrought
up about the movies. And why not?
The first novel she ever wrote, The
Branding Iron, was bought by Goldwyn
for screening Immediately after it's
publication in book form. Then the
same thing happened to her second,
Snow Blindness, perturbation of
which is at the Capitol this week, with
the new title of "Snowblind" and with
Russell Simpson, Mary Alden, Cullen
Lands and Pauline Starke taking the
parts Of her four characters.
Meantime, however, Mrs. Burt made
direct affiliation with Goldwyn and
went to the studios to see how movies
in general, and "Snowblind" in par
ticular, were made and to write an
original story for screening. She saw,

"That's my tree, 1 thought That's

Charles Cherry
Has TOO Per Cent
Stage Successes

Perhaps it is his personality, per-
be just pure luck, but whatever the
cause, Charles Cherry, who plays one
of the star roles in Henry Baron's
adaptation of "The Tyranny of Love-
at the Cort Theater, has the unique dis
tinction of having played only in sue
cesses And when it is taken into con-
sideration that such stars as Ethel
Barrymore, John Drew, Mrs. Fiske, and
others too numerous to mention have
had their share of play failures in
their span as stage luminaries, it can
easily be seen that Charles Cherry has
a distinction he may we'll be proud of.
Cherry virtually grew up on the
stage, making his first appearance
when fourteen years old, After that
between his school studies and play with
the boys on the block he filled in his
spare time studying dramatic art or
appearing before the footlights.
Previous to "The Tyranny of Love"
Cherry's most recent laurels were
earned in Scandal" in which he was
seen for more than a year with Fran
cine Larrimore at the Thrty-ninth
Street Theater and subsequently with
June Walker for another season on the
road.
How does it feel to have 100 per
cent successes ?'' Mr.. Cherry repeated
in his dressing room last night. We'll,

in the cast had very much to do with
this unique record, but 1 have been
lucky enough to get into plays that got
over and so continued on while the
plays went their way.
II remember one season where more
than twenty-five shows opened and
closed during the run of the play that
was in. Just how long this bit of
luck will continue is hard to tell. Per-
haps my next play will hivver, and even
the next. Anyhow, l am hoping that

Ames, Young Leading Man,
Comes From Stock Ranks

Robert Ames, who appears as leading
man for Francine Larrimore this sea
son in "Nice People" looks as if he had
just graduated from college, but not
withstanding his youthful countenance
ne has been on the stage for twelvs
years.
Just dozen years ago he Joined a
stock company in Hartford, Conn. He
had not been in the company a noath
when Burt Harrison happened along
and offered him an opportunity on tbs
road with Henry miller in "The Great
Divide" He filed the role SO accertably
that Mr.. Miller engaged him for ths
following season in "The Servant of ths
House" The next year ne went with
Tom Wise in ''The Silver Wedding" =,
Then Mr.. Ames decided he wasn't get
ting anywhere playing minor roles, and
that he needed some good, all-around
training-so his mind returned to
thoughts Of stock. So he played sum-
mer in Detroit, another in Toronto, and
three years with the Northampton
Players.
On graduation from stock he played
with Ruth Chatterton in "Come Out of
the Kitchen with Otis Skinner in
"Pietro" and in "oh, Lookl'' with Harry
Fox and the Dolly Sisters.
Then there was lean year or SO, In
which he received very good parts in
short-Iived plays. Among thesa wera
''The Fountain of Youth, = Nothing De.
ing" in which be had role opposite
Florence Nash; Sonny in which he
was featured with Emma Dunn and
Lillian Lorraine, and 1.-The Proper
Spirit" with Tom Wise. These abridged
engagements did not discourage Alnes,
however. He philosophically maintains
that failures are good things for an ac-
ter, that they keep him from becoming
SNUG, and that they give him an oppor-
tunity TO play a number Of roles in one
season.

real success and gives him splendid op4
portunity to show the artistry he has
developed in twelve years.
