Her Screen Career
Hides Her Talent
IN HAT favorite bridge party and

" HAT favorite bridge party and
over-the-tea cups topic OF
whether success on the stage Is
a matter. Of luck, experience or tall
ent. may be answered in the mega
tive or affirmative from three diff
ferent angles and the answer still
be right or wrong. For that Is the
kind of a topic and question It is.
The playgoer who has learned well
his theatrical history can point to
instances where a player has had
the luck literally to fall into sue
cess. Those who take their stand
on the side of talent are armed with
examples Of players trfumphing
over the greatest odds because there
burned within them the inextin-
guishable fire of genius. And it Is
just as true that years Of constant
playing have provided some players
with such knowledge of stagecraft
that through sheer technical excel
lence they have risen to prominence.
But there is one combination In
the theater that leads inevitably to
fame and that is the blending Of
talent and experience. And II there
are those who think experience the
less important of these two ingredi-
ents, examples may be found in the
painstaking apprenticeship served
by such European stars as Bern
hardt, Duse, Ellen Terry, for in
stance, and, in the American theater
In the careers OF such players as
Ethel Barrymore, Laurette Taylor,
Maude Adams, Mrs. Fiske or Elsie
Ferguson.
One might consider, for example,
the case of Miss Ferguson. The
light of success shed by her screen
career has eclipsed in the memory
of some playgoers the facts in case
where talent has been enriched
through significant experience.
Recalling Miss ,Ferguson's theater
history one Ii apt to select for the
starting point her starring appear
ance in "Such Little Queen" But
her elevation to stardom in this play
came as the reward of varied ex.
perience in the companies of some
of the foremost players Of the Amer.
lean stage.
Before her appearance III such r.
Little Queen" Miss Ferguson had
played successfully in the companies
Of such players as Louis Mann,
Kyrle Bellew. Wilton Lackaye and
Edgar Selwyn on the American
stage, and with Cyril Maude in Lon
don. These engagements followed
her initial stage debut in musical
comedy.
Since she began her screen career
Miss Ferguson has, until this season,
returned but once to the stage, the
play being Arnold Benefits Sacred
and Profane Love" Her present
personal appearance, as the
phrase has 1t. Is In The Varying
Shore" a play in which she has just
scored her greatest triumph In New
York. at the Hudson Theater. The
Washington engagement commences
tomorrow night Al the National

School Days" has been acclaim
ed one Of the successful pictures Of
the year in the cities where it has
been presented. It's story is rich
In humor, pathos and drama. The
narrative is not calculated to make
. direct appeal only to the Juvenile
mind, but provides entertainment
for all ages.
The central figure n the story Is
. freckled youngste. under sthe
strict care of an unsympathetic
guardian, who rules the boy with an
iron hand. True to the nature Of
healthy boyhood, the lad finds his
greatest joys in the company Of his
dog. hobDobbing with an amateur
inventor. and at the old swimmin'
hole. At school he encounters
many difficulties from which NJ
derives considerable discontinue.
Finally he confides to an elderly
stranger that to him the school
house Is nightmare.
This attentive gentleman proves
to be an uncle Of the youngster, who
takes him East and enrolls him in
. fashionable school attended only
by the children OF the rich. Here
the fun is faster and more furious
than at the little country school,
house from which "Freckles" had
conveniently graduated himself. At
this point in the story there is
strong element OF drama that re-
wolves around the marketing Of a
patent clothespin devised by the
village loafer.
The swagger institution Of learn
ing eventually proves too much for
the kid who longs for his dog, his
girl and the perfect spot for COM

stes and hurries home aboard

brought to a logical conclusion by

that is too good to reveal in ad-
vance.
Practically the entire burden Of
the dramatic structure is borne
upon the thirteen-year-old shoulders
of Wesley Barry, but the support
ing cast includes many noted play
srs, among them Jerome Patrick,
Margaret Seldom. Francis Y. Con.
Ian, John Galsworthy and Airline
Blackburn.
In addition to an overture, which
will display both the solo strength
and the ensemble Of the symphony
orchestra OF thirty artists, Mr..
Mirskey has arranged a special
musical setting for school Days
which completely catches the spirit
of the picture and adds much to its
effectiveness and charm.

published at Rigby, Idaho, contains an
interesting article from the pen of
W. J. Chandler, for many years
resident of Rigby, but who came to
Moscow to make his home a few
months ago. The article is descriptive
of Moscow, it's resources and institu
tions and deals especially with the
University of Idaho and it's advan
tages for the young. The excellent
moral conditions which surround the
young man and young woman who
comes to Moscow to secure an edu-
cation are dwelt upon. The article
