The task is simple or easy one. g, from now play-th- e jo. to Ruth Chatterton, the chestnut-haireyoung actress took the transition from her previous school girl and roles to the more subtle task of picturing the most recent and most difficult of the Barrie heroines. Ruth Chatterton is a real student of the theatre, they said, and to her even the most hypercritical Bar rie worshiper may intrust this task. Hasnt she been an indefatigable worker ever since she made her first professional apeparance on the stage, as a result of a school girl dare, wtih croine of Barries Mary a stock company in Washington?

And the saccharine Daddy Long Legs delighted the prep school and debutante following of the actress, but demanded little from her save the ordinary display of her natural young girl charm. The same may be said for Come out of the Kitchen and Moonlight and Honeysuckle. All the more clear, thenj is it that with her promotion to stardom a few seasons ago Ruth Chatterton did not cease to regard her profession as real work, but continued to study and improve, that she might be prepared for a more demanding job. And when that job camey in the form of Mary Rose, the actress was not. found wanting, and came through the Barrie test with all colors bravely flying, to find herself snugly and firmly ensconced in the difficult esteem of the J. M. Barrie clan.
