Professionals and Amateurs
IXIHAT is the difrerance hetwe.n an

WHAT ts the difference between an
~ amateur and a professional actor ?
This is an interesting question, the
answer to which explains in part why.
OF the thousands who apply to stage
and screen producers, only dozens are
chosen.
The average amateur has so stepped
himself with the wrong idea on inter-
probation that by the time he comes
under the eye Of an interpretative ex-
pert he has too many bad habits to
make reclamation possible.
The difference in the amateur and
professional attitude toward acting is
that the professional strives to make
his audience feel emotion, while the
ameteur has the idea he must feel It
himself
Both amateur and professional. of
course, must have a clear understand
ing of the situation and its reactions.
The amateur. however. Is apt to feel
his part inside SO intensely that his
exterior. the only part available for
the gaze OF the audience. fails to get
the idea over.
A professional understands the emo
ton that the amateur feels. Feeling
is physical. understanding is mental
No one whose brain is inactive can last
very long under the terrific competi-
tion of modern screen and stage con-
'litions.

are all by Mr.. Role and Mr.. Moore,
between whose work II Is easy to dis

of touch. Tidal Basin Bridge" a
dry-point, and Capitol from Ecking-

Moore's best. He also shows several
animal studies-'Red Foxes" and
Red Deer" color dry-points, and
"Kadiak Bears" which would doubt
less prove popular with the young
visitors. "Old Relics. Georgetown" a

one Of Mr.. ROLES best examples.

OIL INVESTIGATION ACTS AS
BOOMERANG ON DEMOCRATS
By Seeking to Discredit the Republican Party
Corruption Is Unearthed in Democratic
Ranks to Dismay. of It's Politicians.

Harry M. Daugherty, Attorney
General. has become the target for
the Democratic barrage which al
ready has resulted in eliminating
Secretary DENLY from the cabinet
and which for no sound reason, has
thrown the Republican leaders in
to a state of mind as calm and
deliberate as that of a runaway
horse. Republican leaders have
urged President Coolidge to ask Mr..
Daugherty's resignation, on the
ground that his continued member
ship in the cabinet will jeapordize
Republican success next November.
Quite possibly Mr.. Daugherty would
have resigned although little dis
er, Democrat of Montana, obviously
envious of the vast publicity gained
by his colleague, Senator Walsh, in
the oil investigation, made charges
of actual dishonesty against the
Attorney General. Mr.. Daugherty
now feels that to resign would be
tantamount to admission of the
truth of these charges and has so
stated in public letter to Senator
Pepper who, with Senator Lodge,
had urged upon the President the
political necessity of Daugherty's
retirement.
Edwin DENLY, Secretary of the
Navy, has resigned since my last
letter. But his situation was differ
ent. No one of any Importance be-
lieved Secretary DENLY had been
dishone5t or had dared to charge
him with malfeasance in office. The
only charge against DENLY was that
he was guilty of poor judgement in
leasing the naval oil reserves,
debatable question. Most naval
strategists, many of the ablest
biologists believe his course was
wise. Many of the ablest lawyers
believe his course was clearly au-
thorized by the law = not the Stan
dard Oil Attorney, of course, but
then, his company was profiteering
tremendously by the failure of the
Navy Department to lease it's lands.
Moreover, the Presidents appoint
ment and the Senate's confirmation
of ex-senator Pomerene and Owen
j. Roberts and the certainty that
the oil leases will be adjudicated in
the courts give DENLY prospect of
complete vindication; whereas the
kind of charges Senator Wheeler
has preferred are so obviously base
less and partisan that they afford
little chance Of vindication and pro-
mise only to become the football
of partisan politics. Wheeler's
charges, in the words of the New
York Tribune, are mere blather-
skitis."
Not it has developed that Senator
Walsh fostered the very law under
which the oil leases were made, and
for which he is now attempting to
discredit the Republican party. And
it is also significant that the then
