Stuff o\ Gold (j (M initi '0 t '"""'' t,uh' S3) ;olemiil) awkward committee presented her with a floral tribute— a huge funeral wreath! Louise at first didn't know whether they were being subtle or what, hut she oon sensed their blissful unconsciousness in the matter and thanked them with a little speech. Louise, with all her work in pictures, has had time to give an occasional and profitable thought to business. After seeing her upon the screen you'd never think it, but she has headed a successful taxicab company, has maintained a large auto park in the busy district of Los Angeles, and has turned over a good many big deals in real estate. In doing so she has again violated all the conventions of the screen. That has been her way from the beginning. She has clubbed her path-way to success, leaving behind her a pallid mass of shocked and bleeding traditions. "And so now," she says, "if ever my picture work should go wrong, should fail me, I know that I can retire comfortably to a farm somewhere in the country and raise chickens !" But she never will. She is teetering now between a tempting offer to go into vaudeville and to make five-reel comedies. "But I want to get into dramatic work," she says, a little wistfully. "I've always wanted that. Griffith not long ago offered to write me into one of his pictures as a cockney slavey girl. At that time I was not free. It nearly broke my heart." She lives with her mother in a district of Los Angeles set apart from the usual habitats of the film players. Her home is a novel affair. It consists, really, of two distinct houses, placed, so to speak, side by each. One of them is recognized as Louise's own particular retreat. "I think every one should have a place like that," she said. "A place where they can be alone when they want to. There are moments in everyone's life when they feel that they must be alone, dont you think? I often feel that way." She has surrounded herself with an astonishing array of pet animals : Killarney, a self-sufficient Irish terrier, a parrot, Waddles, the trained duck that has appeared so often with her in pictures, Mary Garden, a baby goat who follows her faithfully wheresoe'er she goes. She is in amazing rapport with all animals. Teddy, the Great Dane, left Mack Sennett when she did that he might continue to work with her. It is to be hoped that some producer will come to the realization of the "stuff" that it is in Louise. It is the stuff of which, ofttimes, gold is made — when the alchemist is one who can mix his realization with opportunity and his opportunity with sound finance. She is capable of other arts than that of buffoonery and bumps. In the hands of Griffith, if he did not let his tendency toward slapstick dull the keen edge of more subtle humor, she might attain the zenith of mirth and the nadir of pathos. Even as it is, there are tears in her smiles. USEFUL INSTRUCTION . By Frank V.
