A Telegram That Talked
At one time when Geomie Drew
Barrymore was playing in San Fran
cisco a fabulous sum was offered her
by a local theater for her services for
a few weeks The offer was exceed
ingly tempting but her contract with
Charles Frohman stood in the way
However on the nothing-venture-nothing-won
theory she telegraphed a de
tailed statement of the offer she had
received to Frohman in New York ex
plained how anxious she was to ac
cept it and wound up with the plea
Will you release me In due course
of time she received the following tele
gram in answer
Mrs Georgia Drew Barrymore Palace

No CHARLES FROHMAN
Albeit disappointed Mrs Barrymore
at once sent this characteristic reply
