Paul Gilmore in
'The Candidate"
'The play tha Jthtag, aald Shake
speare, and m OBt every wl prophet of
modern theatrical affairs agrees with
the bard of Avon, .but many so so far
as to maintain that tlie merit "of the
play is really of first and paramount
Importance in every dramatic venture.
The popular young romantlo actor,
Paul Gilmore, . who has been making
annual starring jours of America suc
cessfully for a decade. Is so firm in this
belief that he has Just changed his man
agement In order to secure a new play
which, he considered "the thing." "
Mr. Gilmore read the manuscript of
this drama, called "The Candidate, and
was so struck with lta fitness for", his
use that he at once began negotiations
to secure it,, when he found that the
well known manager, A. J. Spencer, bad
bought the play. : The only war he could
secure it as his stsrrinff vshtcle was
to get under Mr. Spencer's managerial
wing, and this was soon arranged. Mr,
Spencer was equally anxious' to get this
popular star under hla direction, believ
lng him to be the ideal actor for tha
title role -of th new play,- " t -.- i
In the meantime Mr. Gilmore had oon4
tracted to use. "Tha Call of tha Korth"
durlnar . the' comlnr season. ' and had
bought the entire production of this
memorable success of last year. : Con-
