She invariably attracts the at

''The Bat" goes to break old

Miss Ellsworth was born in
Baltimore and educated there as
a child, but had removed in her
early teens to Missouri. When
about eighteen years old Miss
Ellsworth had become a school
teacher at Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
She admits that she had about
abandoned all stage aspirations

activity. Only the very smallest

known members of the profes-

a fact that few seemed to under

want any imitation of others in

idea. Miss Ellsworth has given
