In JACK STOIBEY STUART AUre CO, KEITHS gesture, In discussion. In refinement. This profession of dreams Is so transparent that a bad blemish of character will be revealed, no matter how much we try to hide it. Character is that nice balance of mind and heart that governs the instincts of boys snd girls for refinement snd sincerity of purpose. Health, not to say strength, is Important, but youth usually has It all.

Then, besides these elements there are other qualities to be considered in signing a stage career. One of them Is self confidence without conceit Acting Is an Independent art. It can not lean upon any support. The electrician and screen painter are merely accessories, for the drama can be placed in broad daylight in an open stadium and lose none of its Individual expressions "Another quality which Is helpful is individuality. It is a distinct form of originality which, when discovered, can be developed by shrewd and intelligent training.
