they settled" was the important
consideration. Many another &C
tress would have pretended that it
all was just a lark and the money
merely incidental. Not Sally! She's
an honest girl.
We remember with pleasure an
other expression of the same quality
in her. 1t was an outgroWth of the
custom of wealthy residents of West
chester to entertain Sally and en-
tourage from the Mount Kisco thea
ter every night after the perform
ance. Once she discarded the bizarre
get-up of poor Sadie Thompson, the
dropping plumes which were at
tached to the hat in this instance,
everyone would pile into waiting
cars and dash off to some estate.
That the host and hostess were mott
vated as much by curiosity as hos
pitality never bothered Sally. Nor
did it fool her. She was just as Curl
Gus about them and the caviar was
good as well free.
After one such party, Sally and
the sophisticates, all of whom sim
cerely like her, went back to Mount
Kisco's dining car for a snack at
dawn. The gesture was more prac-
tical than social the theory behind
it being that every one would feel
better when he, or she, woke up at
noon.
In the diner, in marked contrast
to the formal summer garb of the
arriving party, sat an unshaven,
tired-looking gent in turtle meek
sweater. He was an old friend who
had driven in from the coast

in her new field of art.
She was glad to see him. beard,
exhaustion and sweater. Because
she was, and the direct way of show
ing it was to ignore the others, she
ignored them.
They thought it was very intelli-
gent of her!
Undoubtedly, she still is being in

the ghost of Miss Bankhead in the

But it took only three days work

weeks later 1t was little Diane Lewis
who fell for the charms of that

the blow that sent studio officials

success-a few months ago in one

returning to the Cross Roads stage,
and unless Miss Jewel has lost her
blond beauty, which is unlikely, or
lost her talent for light comedy,
which is equally unlikely, that
means that all will be we'll this
week at the Virginia barn theater.
Miss Jewel is one of the brightest
stars to grace the local summer
theater scene in recent years. Being
no stranger to the professional stage,
she knows some tricks which enable
her to pick a comedy off a barn
theater floor and bounce 1t around
in the air in lively manner which
let's the customers know it is some
thing alive. She was an immediate
hit in her first Cross Roads effort,
the Ina Claire role in Biography"
in 1899. She followed that the same
year with Yes, My Darling Daugh-
ter" and returned last summer to
play "A Woman's a Fool"
Another fact which bodies we'll
for this week at the Cross Roads
Theater is that the play is one of
the more familiar works of an
author the group has come to feel
can be depended upon for the right
type of frothy entertainment for a
summer evening. That would be
Noel Coward and the play is his
Private Lives" which the Cross
Roads PLAYERS did once before with
considerable success. Miss Jewel,
of course, is playing Amanda. Her
leading man is Reginald Allen, and
others in the cast are Buel Patch,
Edith Simonds and Harriet Hulfish.

Another superior item about which
the Roadside Theater finds it can
boast is the lung power OF Nathalie
Sherman. Miss Sherman's lung
power is important because she plays
a leading feminine role in The Bat, :"
which opens at the Roadside a week
from tonight, and her shrieks are
vital to the doings of the mystery
play. Well, Miss Sherman can
scream louder than a Great Dane
can yowl and other members Of the
cast will swear to it. She found
it out the other night at rehearsal.
Duchess, large Great Dane puppy,
happened in to watch things. not
having anything else to do at the
moment. She just watched until
the cue for Miss Sherman's first
shrek arrived Miss Sherman
screamed; Duchess howled. Miss
Sherman won. It's just warning

In Movies

A Tidy Figure
BY the Associated Press.
HOLLYWOOD.

HOLLYWOOD.
Blessed events are expensive
enough under any conditions, but in
the movies they really come high.
In Wild Geese Calling Joan
Bennett presents Henry Fonda with
an heir. The studio expected the
happy event to cost at least $4,000,
even though the baby would appear
on the screen for a total of only
three minutes.
The infant in the case was to be
Barbara, the l5-day-old daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Leon Birnbaum. And
heres the expense account:
Seyenty-five dollars a day to the
parents, for two hours a day at the
studio. Under California law an in
| fant cannot remain on the set for
more than 20 minutes, under camera
lights for more than 80 second at a
time, or at the studio for more than
two hours a day.
Barbara was reQuisitioned for
three days work-total outlay, 1925
A handsome fee-one which would
please any obstetrician or child spe-
cialist-to veteran character actor
Charles Middleton, portraying the
attending physician.

while on the set-paid by the day,
whether the infant works for a few
seconds or the entire 20 minutes.
Child specialist, appointed by the
Board of Education, to examine
Barbara before work and after her
daily stint. Fee: $25 per visit.
Finally, an infants behavior is un-
practicable. If the child is we'll
