STUART HOLMES AT HE GRAND.
Stuart Holmes appears in an en-
I tirely new type . of role , in his latest
t . . -www ' irm j.
production, ipr wiiiiam jp ox, m ne
Broadway Sport," at the. Grand tomor
Vrow. .Those who have hissed and hated
that cool, debonair, villain of countless
Fox plays, who have pitied him as the
repentant , pastor, in "The Scarlet Let
ter," and who have sympathized with
him. as the outcast in "The Derelict"
have novel sensations in store, for
them when they see Stuart Holmes as
a' spectacled, awkward small "town
gawk. ; Pr'- -x,- ;
Not even his boss' tyranny .can crush
the latent villainy in Holmes. It
flares -forth in all its glory when he
robs, a couple; of crooks of the money
they extracted from the mill safe.
,-.Visions of what he could do on
Broadway with that roll ' prove too
much for his . honesty and thereby
hangs the story. Suffice it to say that
when Holmes plants his No. 12's on
the Great White Way he sets a pace
which leaves the veteran habitues
gasping for breath.
Supporting Mr. Holmes in - ."The
Broadway Sport" is a cast picked
with Carl Harbaugh's characteristic
exactness and skill. Playing next to i
Mr. Holmes is Wanda Petit, a wist-j

jdUlariy i invited to live;in this home.. It
isj'maintainecrf or thos"e most likely to
become wayward. ' Time - and time
again; hey friends have asked her why
she didn't devote her time to the girls
whd'had not already faUen' under the
temptations of the city to those who
were still ttayelfng : the ? straight; path,
saying she was f wasting her efforts and
fortune on worthless girls. . . :
, She laughed- to scorn such asser
tions and claimed that many, of ; the
girls we , shun in the city's crowded
streets girls painted and; powdeFed
so that they have lost all charm "and
dress in clothes calculated to attract
attention ' are girls with hearts
of pure gold.; Although they have fal
len by the way, she believes there is
still hope for ; their redemption . ana
while many others, refuse to heip
them, giving their timeto save others
frpm their fate, she works practically
alone in her field. t c .
Somehow, I never quite realized the j
truth of her words and , .the depth, of ;
her wonderful work until . the Z other
day.
I was sitting, in my motor outside
one of New York's big shops , waiting
or;a friend who'.was doing a bit of
shopping inside to join :- me when I
noticed a flashily and cheaply; dressed
girl talking to another . girl on the :
jorner. A. shabbily dressed old worn
an tottered up to her and asked, direc
tions to get to an Address she had
written on a piece . of paper.; Thegirt
stopped her conversation immediate-
and after reading the address walked
with , the poor old soul to the ; car
tracks which ran in front of the store.
When the right car came along she
placed the old woman in the care of
the conductor, telling him to let her
off at a certain block, and ajt the same
time placing the nickel rfor the , wom
an's fare in his hands. i f
She then rejoined her friend saying:
"Poor old un I .had to pay her fare
she'd u v. dropped if she'd .walked h
and she didn't have no money. Guess
I can walk better than she. So long--I
better start hoofing it now or I'll be
late I thought I was going to be real
swell and ride myself today but Good
bye Lizzie." . , . j
When I repeated this experience to
my welfare worker-friend she assured
me that most of these girls possess i
hearts of gold and. that they will give

Ruth McTammany, as'The Girl from
Rector's,', in the new five-reel Mutual
feature of that name, .possesses the
piquancy and charm that are essential
to success of the part she plays
that of Lpute Sedaine, an., innocent
young French girl with a wonderful
talent for dancing, who : has invaded
New York in an effort to win fame
and fortune by her art. .-:
; Miss McTammany is one of the clev
erest young actresses on the stage
and in "The Girl From Rector's,' she
is afforded splendid oportunities Jor
the exercise of her talents. The pro
ducers sought a star whose sheer in
nocence of face and childish slimness
of form should disarm critcism of the
idea that Loute Sedaine was the lode
stone of a hectic love epidemic that
drew hundreds of well-groomed New
York men about town to Rector's.
Miss McTammany succeeds, admir
ably in making the play just what its
author intended it to be a drama of
human nature full of high lights and
striking contrasts. Miss McTam
many furnishes ... the highlights and
affords the contrasts.
