He knew I never would have let him, but I couldn't make a .scene right there so he went throuRh with it and was the happiest boy in town. He was so tickled I don't see how he ever stayed inside those pants. ''He was always of a philosophical turn of mind and a great judge of human nature. He watched things and people then just as he does now to put them into his pictures. "He started running away to go on the stage pretty early. Then his father told him if he really had his heart so set on it, we would allow him to give it a fair trial. His father would give him money and he'd start out, to return in a few months, broke and worn out, but happy and undismayed. He took up business for a while to please us, but his heart was always with the stage and at last we saw it would ruin his life to interfere any more." She is a regular "Lavender and Old Lace" mother, is Mrs. Kerrigan, mother of the screen's first great matinee idol. Behind the daintiest of tea tables, in a graceful, trailing creation of pearl gray satin and real lace, she presented a picture out of a story book, an idealized motherhood. And her gentle, aristocratic voice, her adoration of her son! fit well with her appearance. "Warren was the ugliest baby I ever had,'" she began, glancing at a fine oil painting of the grown up version of her statement thai hung above her head in the place of honor. "In fact, he was about the ugliest baby I ever saw. He was a twin you know, and when I looked at him lying there on the pillow (I promised you wc might have to see our most cherished hero stripped of all camouflage) I wondered what could have happened to him. He was all bone and black hair and about the color of a bougainvillia vine. He was so boney the nurse had to carry him around on a pillow for days. "And to think that his first fight was because someone told him he was too pretty for a boy!" She shook her gray curls. "Oh, what agony that first fight caused me. All my boys were fighters. The Kerrigans always have been. And I was so tired of it. I tried to bring Warren up not to fight. to see that it was wrong but one day when he was about six, he came home from school — oh, such a sight. His stockings were down, his face was covered with blood and learand sweat and dirt. Finally, between sobs, he confided to me that one of the bigger boys had told him he was too pretty for a boy and he had tried to lick him. "Warren was the youngest of the family, yet from the time Mr. Kerrigan died, he was the 'father.' He was devoted to his family — he had a great sense of love and loyalty to all those of his own blood. The outside world, outside friends meant nothing to him — nothing compared with us. He didn't care much for sports as a child, nor for games, btjt he always had his nose in a book. "I wanted him to be a painter. He began to do some remarkable drawing when he was very young. I have always believed hi. vocation lay there, that he would have done his best work in that line. It would have suited his taste and character in every way better than acting. But his sister Kathleen was on the stage and he drifted there through her influence and his affection for her." You can always count on Priscilla Dean to run true to form. If I were going to make a book on any movie, I think I'd choose Prisci'la. Somehow, I was quite sure when I cornered Mrs. Mary Dean, busy with new contracts, entertaining the Fleet and minor details of that kind, that I should find pretty Priscilla was a perfect little devil as a child. She was. $95 an Hour! "Every hour I spent on my L C. S. Course has been worth $95 to me!
