There l more than ha'.f the truth in
what these critic ny. The star system Is
ipen to aag attacks from mure than
one quarter. But perhaps th managTi I
who have developed it are tit wholly to
blame. Perhaps It will be. fuuad that the
state of public taste Is the rial culprit,
and that trw- star system la merely a re
flection of that taste. "The theatrical
.managers are mi totnmftna!" is the c:Tn
plaisl of the few crltlca who have verte
bral fiber encK.th to say anything but
praise of what the managers offer the
public. So they are. They are caram'l
ciai, indeed. But this is a commerc.UI age
and most of us heip mors or less to make
it to. If F, didn't, it wouldn't be com
mercial. We you, I. all of us are the
public taste and. take us collectively, the
stars are tbe stage exhibits that get most
of our money. The star system, in short. 1
is what it is t.iday because, a the race
track followers my, It "gets th- coin."
Why does It "ret the coin?"
Keeplaus; 1st the Spotlight.
Well, this to an age of advertising.
Thre' no denying that as a people we Ilka
a bit of noise we Ilka a brass band. There
are a lot of things that can't be done with
out a brass band and aome of them are
worth doing. Theodora Roosevelt under
stood that. Theatrical managers under
stand It, too. Their brass bands are the
newspapers, which will toot the trombone
and bang the front page drum for a per
sonality a hundred times where they will
do It ones for an idea. Most of us are
prone to Lake people at their own valua
tions. Tha star, through his manager,
values himself highly and tells you so,
through the newspapers, stimulated by the
busy press agent, early and often, and
again, and repeatedly, and on other occa
sions also. And the first thing you know
you begin to think that tnayba this fellow
Is right about himself. And when he
cymes to your town you pay tLM or Ki to
find out. And half tbe time you don't
knorr then.
It Is not an easy thing to make a theat
rical star of the first magnitude. It aome
times; costs a good deal of money,- but,
once made, a star la the must dependable
and prolific money-maker tn that precari
ous business, theatrical management.
Ktars cannot be mads without tbe aid of
popular plays, but, once made, they will
often run profitably from their own mo
mentum for aome time, even though thair
lays ba tad. Theatrical goods, like some
c( our most famous products, are sold by
the label on tbe can quite as much as by
the contents. It is just another case of
tha trade-mark.
Art for th Oollar'a ake.
But, you ask. Is the drama then no
longer to be Included In the field of art?
Perhaps, but It's largely art for th dol
lar's sake. And it Is all in your hands.
The kind of art that you will pay to see
on the other side of the footlights is th
kind of art that you will get there that
and no other. To an extent true of no
other of 'the arts, dramatic art is in your
hands.
While it Is well known that th star sys
tem is profitable, comparatively few per
sons have any clear Idea of bow profitable
it is when developed to Its utmost. It is
proposed to giv her a few figures which
will show with a clearness possible la no
uther way tha quality of th commercial
ism to which our theatrical managers,
tempted by the complaisant public, have
so generally succumbed. In a few cases It
is possible to describe these figures as ex
act, but absolute precision is aot claimed
for the rest. But fcr all of the figures
given bar It can ba said that, while no
access baa been bad to managerial balance
sheets, they represent in round numbers
the careful estimates of men who cava
been for years closely associated with the
business side of tha American stage, some
of then) as business associates of tbe stars
menuoned.
In tbe last few jears of his life Richard
Mansfield was tbe moat profitable star in
this country, as he was the greatest actor.
He was his own manager and most of his
profits he took himself. This particular
f-atur of th star system exhibited great
acting on th part of a single individual,
but tn several of his most profiisble plays
Mr. Mansfield was bit Indifferently sup
ported and th plays themselves were but
backgrounds for his genius. "Beau tiura
mell" and "Dr. Jekrll and Mr. Hyde" be
longed In this class, the former being :.a
especially thinly furnished sketch vitalised
by the acting of the great virtuoso. Bui
this Is no place to analyse the sources of
Mr. Mansfield s success. It is a conserva
tive estimate to sar that during the last
5 ears of his life Mr. Mansfield s profits
were never less lhau SiOu uuo a year and
sometimes exceeded IJitt.ta). and thia esti
mate take account of certain extraordi
nary expenaea such as the priate car In
which be traveled all about the country.

his receipts for two wt-eks exceeded CM,.

Miss Marlowe's devotion to tragedy and

"Whan. Knighthood was in Flower." her

A woman walked up to the counter of a

"If I had not wanted one particular
