Hart Schaffner &
(By Carolyn Lowrey
When an actress is also an author
and the actress-author is also an in
ventor, she must have her hands full.
That is Lucille La Verne, now ap
pearing in “Seven Days” at the Astor
Theater. She has her hands full and
her head full, and one of these days
she will have her pockets full as well.
Miss La Verne’s invention is the
crying need of the hour, and will win
for her the gratitude of every woman.
When you see it, you will agree with
me that in it is one of the big things
and bound to make the inventor rich
beyond the dreams of an actress’
avarice.
Miss La Verne wrote the play, “Ann
Boyd,” based on the novel of that
name by Will N. Harben. When the
Shuberts found that they would be un
able to give immediate production to
“Ann Boyd” they sublet Miss La
Verne’s services to Wagenhals &
Kemper, but with the absolute under
standing that they held (the claim
check on hqr. That explains why she
is appearing in “Seven Nights,” and
in the New York Morning Telegraph.)
There is not a dull moment in it, and
success is the only word it can spell.
“I prized his approval, and took the
’script to Mr. Shubert, who, after hear
ing the first act, said: ‘Miss La Verne,
you have a great play. I should like to
hear it through.’ He did hear it
*‘I was very nervous,”
writes Mrs. Mollie Mirse,
of Carrsville, Ky., “had
palpitation of the heart,
and was irregular.
“On the advice of Mrs.
Hattie Cain I took 2 bot

me more good than any
medicine I ever took.

me, but I am lots better

Your play of ‘Ann Boyd’
has the same quailty of appeal (in its

Mr. Shubert may indeed find that it is
a great piece of property, for I feel
that the public will take to it and de

grateful for what you have done for
me and my work.

Verne went on, “asking for the right
one to make this dramatization, when
a wee, small voice within me said:
‘Do it yourself!* Almost audibly I an
swered: ‘Oh! God, I can’t!’ But when
I reached home I thought that I could
at least write the scenario, and show
how this book could be dramatized, as
no one seemed to have confidence in
it but myself.
“I began to write, and I could not
stop. I wrote all night long. For days
and days I was not on speaking terms
with my family. My maid brought in
my meals and left them on a trunk.
If she spoke to me I threw things at
her. Hours after my food became cold
I remembered to answer the cry of
hunger.
“In two weeks I had finished my
dramatization. I then invited to din
ner an old manager friend of mine,
Mr. R. L. Giffen, and asked him to
hear my play and criticise it, for I
knew that from him I would get the
brutal truth. When I had read the
play he said:
“ ‘Lucille, when you asked me to
hear you read a play that you had (pioneer of this state, decided to build
