FREE book NOW, ORIENTAL SYSTEM OF BEAUT"' CULTURE Dapt. 309 lOOO Olvaraay Boulavrd Chicago a decade in the "great onrushing art" of pictures is as a century in other fields. The stars who shone so brightly in that year of grace, 1914, have passed into oblivion, and new generations of stars have filled their places for a brief day, only to pass on in their turn. Some have left a dear and fragrant memory in their wake; the very names of others, once famous among stars, have been forgotten. The years that have swept to forgetfulness many and many a proud name have not obliterated the name of the finest actor of his time, Henry B. Walthall. But they have dimmed its lustre. His slipping away into obscurity is one of the saddest phases of film life, and one of the strongest counts against the sincerity of pictures as an art. If Henry B. Walthall had been a little less finished as an actor and a little more physical in his appeal, his name might still be blazing in electric, lights. But he was an actor, not a young Greek god. Even as the Little Colonel, Ben Cameron, in Griffith's immortal Birth of a Nation, ■he was not handsome. His appeal lay in the firmness of his technique, in his speaking eyes and his sensitive mouth. He was, and is, unimposing of figure; he is only five feet six inches in height, and weighs about 140. His brown hair is inclined to curl, and he wears it brushed back from a high, broad forehead. He is a mental type, except for his month. His eyes are brown and eloquent.. Though he is a Southerner, born in Shelby county, Alabama, he speaks without the. soft slurr of the South. His long years on the speaking stage have eliminated that. It was from the stage that Walthall came to make a name for himself in pictures in The Birth of a Nation. And there he was one of a galaxy of players that made screen history, a galaxy scattered to the four corners of the earth and beyond now. Lillian Gish alone of that brave company retains her fame. The others? Miriam Cooper? Merely a name; perhaps not even that to the newest generation of film fans. Mae Marsh? In pictures still, to be sure, but not the Mae Marsh of the Griffith film; not the pixieish Littlest Sister who bravely trimmed her shabby gown with cotton "ermine" to celebrate her brother's return from the war; a woman now. Bobby Harron? Gone, with that blithe spirit, ' Wallace Reid, to the shadow land of peaceful rest. It was The Birth of a Nation that made Henry Walthall on the screen, and it was the same picture that nearly killed him professionally, a few years later. For some four years Walthall starred. Not all of his pictures were good. Some were trivial. But his technique was as sure and his charm as subtle in the poor stories as in the good. He made many pictures: A Greet Love; False Faces; And
