Friday, matinee and night, "The White Staurday, matinee and night, "A Stubborn Cinderella." Tribulations of Stage Favorites MISS NORWOOD OFFERS SOUND ADVICE TO GIRLS CAUGHT BY FOOTLIGHT'S GLAMOR. Few actresses on the stage receive as many letters in the course of 3 season as does Miss Adelaide Norwood, the famous American prima donna who has achieved fresh laurels in Verdi's masterpiece, "Aida," which is to be seen in this city on matinee and night, at the Mishler theatre. A very large proportion of these letters come from strangers and usually contain gestions or ask for advice. In prac- i ucally every city 0. which Miss Norwood appears with the English Opera company she receives from young men letters which indicate that they are anxious to go 011 the stage.

Some of these letters are humorous and some very pathetic. Re of them are answered, for it would be an impossible task for this popular prima donna to keep up with half of the unsolicited correspondence. The letters are from the factory to what is from te factory employe to what IS usually styled "the best pciety." Some of the applicants are genuineambitious, in real need and ly seek to earn a living and somenot the smaller number by any means--are prompted by vanity. Miss Norwood has her own iden about letter writers and nas learned to distinguish between the merely vain correspondents and the genuine ambitious and deserving girl. She sometimes sends the word of advice or suggestion and in an interview recently said: "Few SO called actresses at all prominent before the public become a real personage who are ambitious to go on the stage have had to have a start and better than 80 per cent.

She thinks how wonderful it is be a success; to be sought after; to great see life; to travel; to gain applause.

To the actress answering her letter there is ST feel ng of responsibi ity. She perhaps points out that there are requis'tes for career including talent.

Even IS is achieved, she must point to the occasional trials and There is ceaseless work heart and study. There can be no lagging.

The publie must be pleased--not tonight, but every night. There are the successes and failures on stage the same as in any other field of endeavor. Some girls who are ambitious to go on the stage will not think of the privations and hard work; they only see it from one point of view. To the girl with talent and who will work hard, encouragement should be extended. So you see to answer these letters with a conscience is not a task to be taken up lightly."
