Six Steps to Success Continued from page 49 The picture world remembers well the role of Hertha, which Barbara played with the great Gilbert and Garbo. It drew the first real attention to her. When she returned to Universal, Hoot Gibson asked for her services in one of his Westerns. "I don't want to play in Westerns!" Barbara pouted. "I won't! I won't ! I've had enough Western experience to last me the rest of my life." She didn't play in any more Westerns, either. She just decided to wait for another of those breaks which always were coming. "It'll come," she said stoutly. "I'll get it yet." Did she? Well, rather! She attended a party, or rather an open house, where celebrities dropped in for a few moments throughout the day. This one and that one arrived and, eventually, Harold Lloyd and Mildred Davis. Miss Kent was introduced. A few moments later, Harold and Mildred were seen standing at one side, conversing in low voices and closely watching Barbara. Lloyd had searched Hollywood from end to end, and taken tests of a score of actresses, in quest of a new leading: lady. Here at last he "Harold Lloyd wants to know if you can come to the studio for a little talk?" a voice at the telephone said next day. "He wants you to take a test, too." Break No. 6 had come — the biggest of all, the one which made her dance in elation. "I got the part!" she exclaimed to Mamma Cloutman when she came home. "Isn't this a wonderful, wonderful world !" I saw Barbara at the studio shortly afterward. Vivid, level-headed, ambitious, as pretty as a cameo, she radiates the spirit of the open spaces. There is about her the freshness of a girl from the prairies, combined with the poise of a girl from a finishing school. Discerning, energetic, frank, she is far from being in the class which many have designated as "beautiful but dumb." "When I lived in Canada," Bar bara said, "my idol of the films was Hoot Gibson. 'Oh,' I thought, 'how I'd like to see and know that big, strong cowboy !' We didn't see many Harold Lloyd films out there. We wanted Westerns, and Westerns we got. "The idea of entering pictures never entered my head when we left Canada and came to California. I never even dreamed of some time becoming leading lady for Harold Lloyd and, in fact, thought nothing of it when I was introduced to him at that party. The biggest thrill I ever had was when they asked me to come to the studio to see him. Is there any girl who wouldn't thrill over such a call? "I think my biggest disappointment was when I failed to get the role of the heroine in 'Broadway,' which Universal was making when they lent me to Mr. Lloyd. I went home and cried and cried. Right after I had blubbered my best, came the call for this picture. In two seconds I was doing a jungle dance, or some such wild thing, all over the house. "But it's always been that way with me — the breaks came when least expected. I get at low ebb sometimes, then something pops. But before the pop I usually am in the mood for a good cry and I get just as much comfort out of it as other girls do. "I think that next to the thrills I had in being called for Mr. Gilbert's and Mr. Lloyd's pictures, my happiest moment was when I went back to Canada a year or so ago and was welcomed by the mayor and the townspeople as a celebrity. Gee, it was great to be there with old friends and see the prairies and the wheat fields and the long roads down which I used to ride!" The girl from a lonely homestead on the Canadian plains steps into a niche alongside Bebe Daniels, Jobyna Ralston, and Ann Christy as a Harold Lloyd leading lady. She brings a personality to the screen which will probably make a thousand other aspiring girls wish they had been raised somewhere in the prairie country instead of in steam-heated apartments.
