I FORM MY OWN COMPANY XVI j •pHE 1 to next get thing at for ballet me to project. do was my I knew that I could form a com pany with Richard Nemanoff and make a success with it. We had offers from the Mar del Plata Club, one of the biggest Municipal Casinos and theaters which open for the summer season, and from many other places that were anxious to have a company of ballet proceeding from the Colon. I approached Don Faustino da Rosa, the theatrical tycoon and capitalist, and through him ob tained a contract with the Teatro Cervantes. This theater was the property of the Dias de Mendozas, a famous old couple of dramatic artists whose company had been coming to Argentina for years and always played to a full house. They had made a fortune there and, in tribute to the Argentine public, had built a magnificent theater. It was pure Spanish in architecture, with an interim- of extraordinary beauty, and had ■ Cost a fortune. It was just fin ished and the most expensive and smartest place in Buenos Aires. For Don Faustino to offer me such a spot to open in was a com pliment that left me gasping, and when I talked it over with Nem anoff and Maitre Maurage, they were so enthusiastic that they . gave me the courage to sign the contract. The theater was a big house, and when I started to get the company together and put my decors and costumes ir\Jo execu tion, I had no idea of what I was getting into or what expenses I would be confronted with. . Richard Nemanoff and Maurage basis-'* were working on a percentage with me.

B. AD ms 128 W. fcko.id St. GRIFFIN (GEORGIA) NEWS eians and artists were on sal aries, as was the corps de ballet. It was indeed a gamble, and I spent nearly all the money I had, to have the black-and-white decor of the “Harlequin Noir” properly painted by Peralta, the best seenograph in Buenos Aires, as well as a garden set for the “Syl phides” in the second part of the program. I also had a painted closing curtain and the cyclorama for the divertissements, which was very costly. So by the time we opened, I found myself confronted by an impressive list of debts. The night before our debut, the evening papers were full of the news that Anna Pavlova had cabled, announcing that she would give some functions almost imme diately in the Coliseo. This scared us nearly out of our wits, for there was no possible chance of our company’s surviving in com petition with hers. -However, the contract had been signed, pub licity released and the shew was ready. I was up to my ears in debts, so there was nothing to do but put on the best performances we could before she arrived. When we opened that night to a full house, the show went over with a bang. Every critic in Buenos Aires gave us good no tices, and both Faustino da Rosa and Dias de Mendoza were de lighted with the entire produc tion. * * * E VAR engaged MENDEZ, as business whom we had manager, lined up work for us for several months ahead as soon as we fin ished a three-week hold-over at the Cervantes. We played several towns in-the Argentine and finally got the contract for the Prado in Montevideo, Uruguay, that Anna Pavlova" was supposed to play. It was an open air theater in the Prado Park and had a terrace of concrete instead of a stage. The reason Pavlova did not appear there was supposed to be that she had found out that the Uruguayan Commission of Fiestas, who were sponsoring her engage ment, could pot build a wooden floor over the concrete to suit her, and so she had turned down the engagement. I don’t know why she never came to Buenos Aires that year, but she didn't, and I am sure this was our salvation. T had been getting letters from mother on every boat, asking what on earth I Was; doing, and why I had not returned as soon as the Colon closed: I had not dared write to either of my parents that. I'had put on my own company without any money or experience. I also received a letter from father telling me that he would be with my mother for Christmas, and as she complained dramatically that the selfish behavior of both my brother and myself was driving her into her grave, he begged me to get leave from the manager of the company (which made me feel very guilty) and come to London to spend Christmas with them. There was nothing I would refuse my father, but it was an impos sibility to leave for Europe be fore the end of December, when the Mar del Plata engagement terminated. I decided to give the management, of the company to Ncmanoff and Evnr Mendez and leave about the first week of Jan uary for_Europe, returning late in April for the opening of the Colon in May, for which I had already received my contract as “Primera Ballerina Absoluta,” the star role in the ballet. ,What I wanted more than any thing else in the world was to see my father again and to be with him in the Paris I loved so well —to tell him all about my work and the company, for X hated to deceive him about anything I was doing. lie always wrote me wise, kind letters and continued to send me an allowance regularly, al though I had written to tell him, after Montevideo, that I was mak ing money and did not require anything from him for the present. and! 1 I would be 16 in January already felt very mature. ~ (To Be Continued^ Co-Ed Class, First Methodist, Meets With Miss Addington The Co-ed Sunday School class of the First Methodist Cflurch, met Monday evening at the home of Miss Alberta Addington for the monthly social.
