MOTION PICTURE High Lowe {Continued from page 51) undone things, lost opportunities, work or play foregone. I shall have a farm, I hope, the wide country about me. It will be a mild sort of fun. Why not?" I said that I couldn't imagine it. He said, "Why bother to? It comes. Take it easily. I5ring on the next!" I asked him, he seemed so serene, whether he was self-confident. "Sufficiently so," he said ; "too much is bad. Worse than too little." "Isn't it indispensable," I inquired, "in your work? I always thought so." "Too much is bad," he reiterated ; "immediately we become self-confident to any set degree we cease to grow. We know it all. Our work stands still because we become rigid. We cannot be taught. We cannot absorb, and that is fatal. A great many in this profession and in others would still be lighting the skies if they had not become too much inflated in their own esteem . . . and blah ! Self-confidence does not make for work. And work is the ingredient of success." I asked him whether he liked his role in "The Son-Daughter." I found that he did — for two reasons, chiefly ; the wigs and Confucius. He had, it seemed, studied both. He evinced a great admiration for Confucius. If it had been a week-end instead of an hour's interview, I might have come away a Confucianist professed. Only lack of time and setting circumscribed the outpouring of the Confucian doctrine. The wigs — the wigs he wears as the young prince in "The Son-Daughter" — • were more easily explained, being visible. He handled them with reverent hands, showing how even the pseudo forehead is attached so that the blending may be super-perfect. He took a deep and loving pride in those 'wigs. A day or so later I saw Mr. Lowe at a musical comedy. He was having a ripping sort of time. I thought of Confuciusand the philosophy of acceptance, and smiled — corroboratively. He has, I reasoned further, the very fullest sense of the philosophy of acceptance — it embraces comedy as well as tragedy, age as vi'ell as youth, the movies as well as the stage, wigs, Confucius, good sherry and interviewers! MEMORIALS By Charlotte Becker The songs men make todav shall reach Eves whicli they do not dream of yet, And with sweet, haunting music teach Soii'.s yet unborn life's alphabet. The creeds may totter, grave beliefs, Like witliercd blossoms, fall away; Tbo beauties fade to ancient griefs And prophets change from day to day: Tho wars may scourge the nation's marts And kings and kingdoms rise and fall, Sheltered within a myriad hearts A lyric shall outlast them all.
