Ur- I M,ss J : WT/ Attractive , S Z s - / I \X *' .* Z —— Miss Gladys Hanson Attributes Her Rapid Progress to Train ing by E. H. Sothern. From the masses to the stage may be a poetic routi to histrionic fume, but if Gladys Hanson, an Atlanta girl who has won a high place for herself in the theatrical world, is to be be lieved, it's the girl with education and refinement who stands the better chance of suet ess. Miss I! 'Il-on in real life Mis Snook, has played many parts, though she still 's young in the profession. Her most notable efforts were when she war leading woman with E 11. Sothern ami later with Kyrle Bellow. Miss Hanson has been spending part of the summer in Atlanta with her family. "Os course, it is easier and quicker for a young, gentlewoman to win sue -1 on Hie stage," said Miss Hanson 'Naturally It i- easier for one whr ha • had the advantages of a careful upbringing and a g >od educational training, provided, of course, that due account Is taken of individual ability and talent. A gltl must have a knowl edge of social usages and know how to appear a gentlewoman before she can take such a role on the stag- For success she requires not only a good ■<.motion, but a know!-dge of music : ind elocutionary drilling” She Began at the Top. These things were nece«sa y a- a | foundation for a girl's career, said Miss Hnnst n. nd the gir l of good family and position usually had those things tn be cin with Those were not all the qunli ' ft' .i: - t.ii Miss Hanson \ t .ot - ic > kn« - edge of v chnique w nec- essary to the finished artist and she, therefore, recommended to anxious be ginners that they start from the ranks. "Other qualifications being equal, the girl of social standing has the advan tage." said Miss Hanson. "Hut she should not begin at the top. no matter what her previous training for the stage has been Only the actual work can furnish the experience necessary and that can bo gained more thorough ly and with a g.eater degree of cer tainty by taking a small role in a stock company, playing many unimportant parts am' gradually rising to a posi tion of responsibility. Miss Hanson was reminded that she began at the top "Yes. I began almost at the top," she admitted. "Hut that is no reason why that is the best way; in fact, if 1 hud not been playing with Mr. Sothern or some one like him tarn' I don't think there is any on;- else like Mr. Sothern or like his company, which Is an organ ization unique in the theatrical world) 1 should probably have failed.

"Then, too, 1 had the advantage of being a member of a rept toire com pany. of which there nre only two or threi in the country, so that the avei - age beginner would not have this chance I played nine parts in two year* and my experience was some what similar to that I would have hud in a stock company, only much mo e Irving And even with all my special and exceptional advantages, the strain was something awful. Aly experience was gained under a far greater re sponsibility than is best for a certain success." Miss Hanson said that in all of the roles taken by her she had had need for the natural el-arm and social graces which she possesses. Her new part in "The Governor's Lady" calls for poise, she said. Miss Hanson leaves for New York September 24. and begins rehearsals for the neyv Belasco play on the 29t11. "The Governor's Lady" fvill be given first at the Republic thiater. on Octo ber 17.

Gray, of Savannah, mem ber of the state railroad commission and candidate for re-election, may or i may not be aware of the fact today that he almost had a fight with Tom Matson. McDuffie statesman and au thor. in the lobby of the Kimball house at 9 o’clock last night. But it is a fact, according to ,T. J. Brown, assistant agricultural commis sioner and candidate for the commis i sionership, and J. A. Smith, a news paper man of Talbotton, both boon companions and supporters of Watson. According to the tales told by eye witnesses and subscribed to by Kimball house loungers, things looked warm for several minutes, but Brown and Smith succeeded in steering the little drama over the rough spots, bringing it to a finis of an anti-climax variety. A. O. Blalock, Jr . son of the Fay etteville senator of similar name who is a candidate for commissioner of i agriculture and is at present engaged in a heated newspaper altercation with , J. J. Brown, i- said to have been the , cause of the fight that might have been. ■ but never was. At least J. J. Brown says that Watson, who spent three hours in Atlanta yesterday, had been informed that Blalock was going to 11 slap his face if lie (Watson) got into I the Blalocit-Brown wrangle. EGYPT WINS U.

Langston. Governor Brown today ignored the senate’s confirmation of the Hoke Smith appointments to the state board of education. At a called meeting of the board held In the office of the state school superintendent, he issued com missions to his own nominees. In throwing down the gauntlet to the senate the governor filed the first gun of what promises to.be a long bat tle to test the legality of the various sets of appointments. As has been freely predicted, if Dr. Jere M. Pound and -J. U- 1-rf.ngston. the ousted Smith members, press their claims on the strength of senate confirmation only a supreme court decision can bring the altercation to an end. Dr. Pound Ousted With J. C. Langston. G. R. Glenn, president of the North Georgia Agricultural college. was named by Governor Brown to succeed Dr. Jere M. Pound, of Athens, and A. H. Moon, of Baxley, was given a com mission instead of J. C. Langston, of Sylvania. Waiter Steed and T. .1. Wooster. upon whom there were no contests, were recommissioned. Messrs. Glenn. Moon, Steed and the governor were present at the meeting. M. L. Brittain, state school commissioner, a member of the board by virtue of his office, was out of the city and T. .1. Wooster. who is in North Carolina, was also absent. By virtue of the terms of the educational act the governor is chairman of the educational board. Brown Questions Senate’s Power. The fight of the appointees to the board of education began when the senate failed to confirm Governor Brown’s appointments superseding Pound and Langston witii Glenn and Moon. The governor then withdrew his nomination. The senate called for the minutes of the executive office re cording the Smith appointments of September 8, 1911, and the governor acquiesced to the request, but informed the senate that the names appearing on the minutes were sent in merely for the senate's information and were not to be considered as nominees. After several star chamber squab bles the senate decided that it would use the names on the minutes as nomi nees. practically making the appoint ments itself. The Smith list was con firmed. Governor Brown’s theory is that since the senate can not make ap pointments, but may only approve, re ject or refuse to consider the upper house, has exceeded the authority vest ed in it by the constitution and the educational act.
