Elsie Jane Wilson, who took the part of "Everywoman" In the play of the same name at the Brandols theater Tuesday night, only a few years ago was a prim teacher In a small village In Eng land. Miss Wilson's ancestors bofore her for a long time were actors, but her par ents decided that such would not be the case with her, and she was brought up with the understanding from the first that she was to be a school ma'am. -The blood of her forefathers was string in her, and she -gave up the schoolroom for the footlights, and there ihe has re mained ever since. Incidentally It might be stated that the greater part of that time hu been as a portrayer of leading roles. Miss Wilson has only been In America three years, taking the title role of "Mad ame X" last season, and appearing In repertoire the year preceding that, which was her first In America. Before this she appeared In London, mostly In Shake spearean plays. She says of all tho parts she has ever taker) she likes best the part of Rosalln In Shapespeare's "As You Like It" During her London stage ca reer she played with many of the leading British players, among them being Graham Moffat, author of "Bunty Pulls the Strings." When asked about her views on woman suffrage, Miss Wilson Immediately took a new Interest in the conversation and said, "Why certainly 1 believe In woman suffrage. I believe I could even be a militant suffragette If I had half a chance." Miss Wilson's performance of "Every woman" Tuesday was a veritable feast of acting, and her personifications of Joy, and later of sorrow and remorse, were all that they should have been. The lighter lines were spoken with a spirit of full Joy and youthfulness, while in the heavier and more dramatic parts she seemed to put her whole soul Into her acting. Miss Wilson will be seen again in the leading role of "Everywoman" on Saturday afternoon. "The Darlings of Paris" show at the Krug will feature the "Country Store" this evening. The regular performance Includes a seven-part caboret The chorus Is one of tho best dancing organ isations of the season.
