New York, Feb 4.-Interview With
an Actress:
@. And if I make this interview
anonymous and rearrange facts and
your answers so that Identification by
your public will not he possible, you
will talk frankly?
A. try to talk frankly even in the
interviews which idtntify me, but it
will t5e a relief to be able to speak
my mind without any fear of rebound.
The public is funny. There are some
things it will not permit it's actresses
to say, even though the public knows
those things are true.
Q. What kind of things are they?
Q. Well, at random. Suppose I de-
clared that l thought I was really
second rate actress and not another
Duse or Bernhard or even a Barry
more of twenty years ago. People
would applaud my modesty but Sc
cretly mostO f them would be tempted
to accept me at my own low evalua-
ton.
@. Do you consider yourself second
rate, then?
A. Of course I don't To tell you the
truth, think Duse was much over
rated. I could give her cards and
spades in my role, were she alive, to-
day, and act rings around the lady.
Q. Do you think salaries of stars
like yourself should be printed in the
papers?
A. If they are large enough to be
impressive, yes. Most of the kicks
heard were. from those who were re-
vealed not to be getting as much as
this or that other star. And we'd all
be a. little cross if the salary lists
continued with the information that
income taxes, state and federal, re-
duce $4,000 week salary to about
quarter of that amount. In all other
cases, revelation of salaries is intoler-
able shopping, but actors and &C
tresses want to seem grossly over
paid; then the public is inclined to
forgive them bad pictures, so long as
they are paid so handsomely for them
@. Do you think being on the stage
or in movies makes happy married
life difficult?
A. No, cut being the kind of per-
son who becomes a stage or motion
picture actress makes it difficult See
the difference?
Q. Do you object to the publics
curiosity about YOUR private affairs?
A. No-and this is really bit too
frank. I know-Id ont. I'm secretly
thrilled to death. think got my last

IT'S TRUE

You're wrong if you believe that
the Wisdom of Solomon has anything
to do with King Solomon. 1t was writ
ten in Greek by an Alexandrian Jew,
and is no older than the first or sec
ond century. It was so highly esteem
ed by the Christian church that it
came nearer to canonical acceptance
than any other part of the Apocrypha
You're wrong, too, if you think there
are lions and tigers at large in Africa.
The tiger is exclusively Asiatic. The
only tigers in Africa are in zoos
Lions never dwell in forests and
jungles, no matter how many animal
movies you've seen showing them in
jungles. They inhabit sandy plains
where there are thorn-thickes, and
in tall grasses along river banks.
It's the normal thing for children
to be born with teeth
Automobiles are not motor-cars.
they're engine-cars.
Dynamite isn't exploded by fire, and
it won't explode, even with a detona-
tor, when frozen. (Some of you war
vets will remember using dynamite to
kindle fires, and giving unknowing
rockies nervous prostration.)
A blacksmith is not a horseshoer.
Horses are shod by farriers. A black
smith is one who works in iron or
steel, in contrast to whitesmith who
works on other metals.
Light does not travel in straight
line 1t behaves like other waves.
Helium was discovered on the Sun
before it was found on the earth.
No one knows for certain the cause
OF the eruptions of volcanoes.

And some day, the American steam
