Young Ladies and.the STAGE

4 BOUT this matter of young ladies
"A going on the stage there is
something to be learned from Ethel
Barrymore. What the distinguished
star says always has interest, but
more especially SO just now, for tw
reasons. One is that she visits Wash
ington this week; the other reason
Is that she has written a short story,
her first, and this is now on the
news stands.
The story, written in collaboration
with David Wallace, deals with the
theater, and 1t touches upon this very
matter under the title of "a LII
Girl in Lotta Trouble" OF course.
Miss Barrymore is too much of an
artist to indulge in opinions when
she is writing fiction, but as all art
reveals something of it's creator, so
this tale of the stage shows here and
there what. the star herself might
possibly feel.
The most pointed revelations come
in odd bits. picked at random. There's
this. for instance, about the heroine
of the story, Katherine Prentice, sit
ting weary, discouraged. and disconso-
late in the lobby Of a little New York
hotel: "She wondered If she should
have taken seriously all the praise
friends at college lavished upon her
performance of Barrie's Rosalind.'
She was one more girl who had
dreamed SO pleasantly at home, and
awakened to reality In a dismal Man
haitian side street"
Again, in Katherine's meeting with
the man who is to play destiny for
her, there's this Illuminating bit Of
conversation. Katherine asks him:
Don't you think 4lon there is 5rst as as
there Is from too severe criticism ?"
