pear to be exaggeration of some
roles.
IN the first place. the time of
the action is laid in a period which
will not be remembered by the
younger generation-before the
motion pictures put out of bust
ness the small troupes of actors
who played only night in the
smaller towns of the country.
The actors comprising these
troupes were as unlike the actors
of today as day is unlike night.
In the first place, they required
little, il any, histrionic ability, for
the managers of such companies
had a supreme contempt for the
audiences to which they played in
the tank towns Therefore. hav-
ing no ability, they attempted to
convince the natives of these
towns that they had by the expe-
dent of staggering up and down
the streets, assuming a pose that
approached the ridiculous.
And the natives always were
impressed. Many a girls heart has
beaten faster upon seeing one of
these actors strutting down Main
street, glancing about him super
ciliously and endeavoring to create
the impression of wealth: whereas
he very likely had not cent in his
pockets. They were ridiculous; but
they were a part of the times.
"In The Transformer you will
see this type of ham actor carica-
tured. as it were. My acting will
appear to some to be far-fetched-
in fact, to be overdone to a con-
siderable degree. But, I was a
transformer myself once upon a
time, and l know the habits and
