ACTRESS PLAYS MOTHER
AS IF IN REAL EARNEST
Helen Strickland, of Baker Company, Who in Everyday Life Is as Ador
able as She Is in Goodman's Flay, Says Author Knows Human Nature.
BY LEOXE CASS BAER.
SOME day I'm going to compile a
dictionary of synonyms, and I've
put down a list of people possi
bles and Impossibles to fill In as in
terpretations for words. For Instance.
In my synonym book the word ador
able is going to be followed by Helen
Strickland. Just that and nothing
more.
She Is one of the few actresses
whose persona charm so outweighs all
her marvelous acting ability that to
know her Is a rare, fine privilege.
Primarily she is a cultured, charming
woman, whose interests are varied and
far reaching. She finds time for a
prodigious amount of reading, although
I'll wager she couldn't tell you the
name of any one of the six best sellers.
Instead she picks and chooses them.
- Just as she does her friends. And
neither books nor friends are chosen
for their binding and print. It is,
rather, for what they have to say. And
she Is tremendously ambitious. The
role she had last week, that of mother
in Jules Eckert Goodman's play, at the
Baker, was $6 pages of closo type. She
learned it perfectly, designed her cos
tumes and studied out all tho delicate
hits of stage business needful for the
interpretation of mother. As nearly as
she could Miss Strickland copied the
stage little mother from memories of
her own mother.
Every Mother "Ideal.'
"I have had so few really sweet,
nice old ladies to portray since I've
been with the Baker players, smiled
the gracious Miss Strickland chatting
for a little while in her dressing-room
between acts. . suppose every woman
in the world thinks her own mother
was the ideal mother, and the sweet
zest of women. So my- assertion that
my own mother was a dear, lovable.
little soul will find understanding. She
was so equable, so always sincere and
helpful. And. my! What a family she
raised! There were a dozen of us
children. One line In the play brought
quick tears to my eyes every time I
heard It. the one where one of my
stage children says: "Oh, you foxy little
mother: you have such ways with
you!" Those words exactly describe my
own mother. .. She was foxy. I have
kept all her dear little lace caps, and
I've several lovely old dresses, and, oh
so many little personal belongings.
Whenever I can I use them In my stage
dressing, and the wearing of them
elves me Infinite happiness.
"I have two sisters who are abso
lutely horrified at what they are
pleased to call my desecration. We
never have and never will agree on the
subject."

sentences for her simply with one ex
press. ve ftlance grew round with
pleasure when she spoke of the role of
Mother. She is the most natural woman
I have ever interpreted. I do not see
how any actress playing- her could
sound one false note. Jules Goodman
assuredly knows human nature.
"I like the little undercurrent of hu
mor In the role." she said. "It makes
the part so human and playabl. And
the wonderful understanding she has of
each of her children! Whenever I kiss
those two mischievous children good
night and tuck them in, I assure you
"t is . real kisses, and the tucking-in
process is as much a labor of love as
if it were happening in my own home.1
Miss Strickland, who is Mrs. Robert
?onness in private life, has no babies,
"but." as she says, "that doesn't keep
me from being so maternal that I peek
inder the bonnet of every child I see
and love them all, indiscriminately. re
ardless al'ke of size, age, color or
condition, just because they're babies.
To Miss Strickland the appreciation
of her audience is a source of great
Joy. I am so glad they liked Mother,
ou must know how genuinely, de
lighted I am ever the lovely things
Deople have been kind enough to say of
mv portrayal."
She is so modest about it all is
Helen Strickland so conscientious
about her work that she has no time
to develop ego.

Miss Swinburne Is very tall and her
yes sparkled merrily. She has the most
beautiful curly hair, which ia cropped
quite short because of typhoid fever,
she told us but above all, she has a
very charming, cultivated speech.
"Vhye is your home?" we asked
her, wondering about her voice. "1
come from the very far West." she
said. "Portland. Or."
"But your speech do's not suggest
that of a Western woman, at last it
16 not the speech we usually associate
with the West."
"Thst Is because my parents are
Hnglish and I have lived so much
abroad. You see, I have been on the
stage for only two seasons, but 1

I would have sung Mlml and some of
the lovely Puccini roles. But I had
not the slightest Idea of doing that
and Just sliding through. When I sing
in grand opera I want to do it well.
"But then, you see. I simply will not
do anything that I do not believe to
be worth doli.g. This season It was
originally planned that I sing In a re

Offenbach opera. There has been a
delightful revival of it in Germany
but the book, which Is very risque in
French. Is horrid In German. ' You

even started to rehearse It, but I in
sisted that the book be changed.
"It will be changed." I was told, ln
a few days.' But as time went on and
nothing was done, I threw up the part.
I had a dreadful time, but I stuck by
my guns.
"Then 1 had an opportunity to sing
In The Count,' and It has been a. great

believe that the public as such -is en

"What else have you done In your

"I sang in the choir for years at

Since Lansing Rowan's exit from the
earthly stage saddening and unflat
tering neart stories nave been pub
lished of the life that ended in its
prime, says the Matinee Girl in a week-
or-two-ago edition of the Dramatic
Mirror. Which further moves her to
add that much might be said of Lansing
Rowan beside the fact that her career
had been punctuated, as - are most
careers, by mistakes.
She was the core of generosity. When
the choice of a player for a promising
role In a Broadway production lay be
tween her and a girl whose mother was
slowly dying. Miss Rowan said: "Give
it to her. I won't let ambition- separate
them." and she went back to the tedium
of the road.
While she was rallying from the Ill
ness that preceded her last one. sne
wrote from Brooklyn to a guest at
the Actors' Fund Home, whom she had
known In the West: "I am coming to
see you. Let me know If there is any
old thing I can bring you." To which
Miss Clifton replied: "The only old
thing I want you to bring Is yourself."
Toward the end of her life, the pathos
lurking always close to its surface op
pressed her. She said, patting the
shaggy head of a faithful spaniel: "1
call him 'Stand By.' So few do you
know."
The longing for a home, that lies
deep In the heart of every actor, was
poignant in Lansing Rowan's breast.
She described a little weather-beaten
cottage she saw In passing one morn
ing while walking to her train in a
Canadian town.
Struck with the beauty of its weather-beaten
outlines and the rose bush
rambling about Its windows, she went
up to the path of the old fashioned
garden, and bought the cottage before
train time. It would have been a hap
pier going out of her bruised and tired
spirit, from the tiny cottage in Canada.
than from the hospital ward in Brook
lyn. Lansing Rowan was tired and is at
rest Let her sleep.

Me," a farco by Rupert Hughes, that
ran nine months In New York and was
pronounced the most meritoriou
achievement in years in the way of a
augnter-provoking play.
"Excuse Me," is a new idea in farce.
The location of Its scenes Is novel- An
other point Is that It requires a com
pany numbering 30. a fact in itselt
sufficient to distinctly differentiate it
from the 'usual farce production.
"Excuse Me" Is a farce of 20 stories
and of none, a paradox which becomes
clear when It Is understood that all of
the action takes place on an Overland
Limited train bound from Chicago to
tne Paciric Coast, and that the char
acters are the' Pullman passengers and
the train crew. The persons are widely
contrasting types.
The main thread of the story winds
Itself around the attempts of Lleuten
ant Harry Mallory and his sweetheart
to find a minister to perform for them
the wedding ceremony which the other
passengers on the train believed to
ha-e taken place before the two left
Chicago, but each Individual and each
couple In the play lias a story of hi
and Its own and the composite whole
attains a laurter-rreating effect.

Who can describe the bird-like grace
and feathery lightness of the Danish

There have been, in fact no really
remarkable dancers on either the dra

eratlon. Suddenly comes Genee into
the vacant field, posing like a fairy on
a sunbeam, winging about the stage
like a humming bird above a honey
suckle blossom, bringing with har the
bubble's buoyant freedom and the lark's
exultant Joy of living. The present day
notion or dancing changes. In a flash.
Perfection such as hers resists all at
tempt at comparison, dwarfs the agl e
figures that glide In memories of the
past, and lifts her high and apart into
