"I like to see my pictures myself, because I want to know what I do and how I do it, because some day I mean to be a great actress. "I mean a great actress op the stage where thousands of people will listen to me. Then I would like to travel all over the country and go to Europe and Asia like I near other great actresses do.

"Yes, I have met the great ladles of the motion pictures: Miss Plckford, Madam Nazlmova, Viola Dana, Shirley Mason, Pricilla Dean and very many others. "They have also been very kind to me. They all call me baby, but I am no baby: I am seven. Then by and by I shall be twelve and grow up to be like other big girls. "No, I am not a bit afraid of working In the pictures.

I do not mind the noise and I know there Is no real danger, because everybody takes real good care of me. "I like movies. I go to see them with my mamma at times. I think Mr. Chaplin Is funny and Mr.

Hart la wonderful. "But I think John Lowell Is the grandest man in the world. I am sure you will all like him. "Oscar Apfel, the director, Is a great director. "I think little girls would like to work In pictures because everyone is so kind to them.

"My mamma says one of these days I will go to Kuropo on a big ship and see the people there, and then maybe I shall go to Asia where the Indians are and to Africa where the big pyramids are. Yes, I would like to go around the world and see things like other big stars do. "I am very much pleased to be taken about and to see people In these big cities and to go to the stores to meet people. The more people I meet the better I am pleased, because I think they will like my picture and that pleases me. "I would like all the little boys and girls to think of me as their friend, and as I grow up that they will come to see me in other pictures.

"I have no brothers or sisters of my own, so I want to make friends of little boys and girls of my age." 'The great love story of the ages. A Page from History. The Marvel of Marvels. "Out of the mouths of babes and sucklings come words of wisdom." As a rule the famous little artists which the screen has brought to the notice of the world talk little. Why should they? They are so young.

All they have to do is pose and be posed and do as they are told and the public does the rest. Baby Ivy Ward, the little heroine of Innumerable motion picture dramas such as "The Great Secret," "Draft No. 258," "The Winning of Beatrice," "A Man's World," "Silent Women," "Little Women," "As a Man Thinks" and "Everybody's Business," although only 7 years of age, has compressed Into a three year career before the public a whole world of intensive acting. She screens like an angel and looks like an angel and the result is that millions of people all over the world are in love with the child. In the wonderful picture, "Ten Nights In a Barroom," Baby Mary Morgan, the little one who is done to death in a drunken brawl and whose spiritual Influence leads to the moral renovation and reformation of Joe Morgan, so grandly played by John Lowell, Baby Ivy Ward touches all hearts.

"Yes, I like to work In the pictures," she said last night after she had appeared In person at the Victoria Theater, "but some day I want to talk. I want to be on the stage where I onn see people and talk to them. I like to do what I am told because the people who tell me to do things in the pictures seem to like me and I like them and the work 1 am doing. "It Isn't work to me; It's like school. Everybody is so nice to me and they all seem like my friends.

"Mr. Lowell in the pictures was always kind to me, and he was only unkind in his part because he had to be, and he is a nice, kind gentleman and he and I are great friends. "When we were making the picture last Summer In the country, we went on many nice automobile trips and he bought me many candies and flowers. "I am very fond of flowers and the beautiful country blue sky and the mountains where we made our scenes. THEATER ORFiiEUi The N.

On each visit to India I renewed my efforts to see It performed.

Finally a native whom made more friendly with the jingle of a few good American dollars allowed me to build a false bottom up in the howah, or cabin, atop the elephant on which he rode to the ceremonies. "Concealed In this bottom, I witnessed what no white man had ever been privileged to gaze upon before. The Yogi Abijah, a high priest, performed the impossible before the astounded tribe. I set to work and after a few years of labor and study I am able to present the illusion of sawing a young lady in half before the very eyes of my audience, as she lies in a collapsible casket, through the wood at the same time. "I feel that this is a triumph of our Western civilization over an ancient mystery of the East, the solution of one of its innermost secrets.

And may I add with pardonable pride that my experiment with this" feat has not caused a single injury to human being, or animal, while its Hindu history shows they sacrifice many innocent lives in the perfection of this illusion."
