Dancing Figures, Tiny
And Mute, Rcckoned
Fay Marbc to the Stage

Tiny dancing figures, carved In hcr
1ethers establishment, directed Fay
Marble toward stage career, and nov
she IS Lola In "The Hotel Mouse" at
the Astor Thcatcr.
while my father did not take any
TOO kindly at first 10 my going on the
stage she said recently at tho Shubort
lheater, "he is really responsible. Won
see, he Is manufacturer In this city
of little obje,s dart, among them
little dancing figures. Whenever he
had some unique little figure he would
bring it to our home in New York and
set 1t upon the mantclpiece. As little
girl would study these little dancing
hgures and try to reproduce their poses
"Once my father found me doing
this.
"0ur little girl must not SEQ too
many of those figures, he told NV
mother, or she will want to go on the
stage
Then for couple Of weeks the fig
ures entirely disappeared from the
house One day he found me CRYING
before a mantclpjece in the library on
which some Of the figures had stood.
The next day there was very
gorgeous assortment of figures there.
And after that he made no further OBJ
lection to my studying them and even
dancing openly.
after a time, quite naturally I be
gan to originate steps and even dances.
My father took deep interest in this
development of mine and even posed
for some of his unique little figures.
"lt quite followed that as soon as
was old enough | began to take dancing
lessons. In my study and thought over
the little figures imagined TO myself
that they could sing and also act. So
| studied voice and drama and went 20
dramatic school. ! also went to the
public schools here in New York and
hnalIy to private girls school.
Though had always been keen upon
stage career, I did not 90 on the
stage other than through accident
hnally. happened to go to an artists
ball and danced there in Oriental cos
tune. The producers of the musical
comedy ON, Roy saw me and WAS
engaged for the role Of Polly Andrews
"pcrhaps have been successful and
perhaps have not, but my career, such
as it is, is due 10 the little dancing
ngures originated by my father"

Eventually the act went on the road
IN vaudeville. Then came what Cantor
alterward regarded as the greatest
misfortune Of his life, Bedini and
Arthur, once out Of New York. resumed
their Juggling. Arthur BACKED up as
il comedian and Bedini iuggled in
white face. Bedni insisted that Can
tor black up, as Bedini wished to be
the only "stra ght" in the act. Since
that time Cantor in every entertain
ment III which he has appeared at some
atage of the proceeding has been com
pelled by the directing powers to ap-
pear in black face. When Gus Edwards
put him into one Of the Edwards re-
Vues, Cantor thought that he would
escape black face, but Edwards made
him a burned cork butler.
Cantor was beginning to feel strong
ly on the subject of backing up. He
was studying drama and comedy and
their exposition very seriously, and he
oid not want to hide forever under 4
black mask. lie appealed to an old
!liend, Max Hart an agent, and told
him of the black tragedy in his life.
Hart took him out of the Edwards re
yue and sent him to London in 1914
The English producers, however, had
heard Of Cantor's black face ability and
forced him to use the cork.
Then Cantor determined TO quit Eng
land and do Jewish comedy in white
face in New York. But the booking Of.
fees informed him that he must ap,
pear in black face. Cantor played fol

Miss Frederick has never appeared o,

THE THREEFoLD SPELL

! An appeal in dramatic narrative, an
appeal strong for children and Lrilni-
tive people, is repetition. Again and
again through the Old Testament one
sees the force Of repetition, and it is
used with terrible effect in Bluebeard,
a story fit only for stout-hearted chill
dren. Fatima's thrice-repeated cry {:
"Sister Anne! Sister Anne! Do you
see anybody coming?" is the climax
of story that never wavers in it's
power. 1t is the ,thrice-accentuated
sense Of fatefulness that plays ON the
listener, delaying, yet emphasizing,
the climax. You find it in Joram's re-
peated message to the approaching
Jehu, us it peace?" And again you
have it as Elijah drenches his sacri-
fee three times in water before fire
descends from Heaven. Another ex-
ample Of threefold iteration is in that
model story, ''The Three Bears" 1t is
perfect small example of dramatic
story that holds the listener from first
to last, writes w. M. Let's in the Yale
Review. The three sizes of bears, the
three kinds of voice, the three bowls
of bread and milk, the three chairs,
the three beds, enchant children.
