to the beauty of this land, so why
should I even try? But I do want to
say a word right here about the ieo
ple. I have never played to such ap
preciative audiences as I have right in
this little .old theater. It sends a glow
over a fellow to play to folks like you
people here."
"But about the movies," reminded
the interviewer, regardful of a duty
but ill-performed.
"Ah, yes, the movies. When they
first proposed them to me I was scar
ed, then amused, then interested, and
finally was convinced. Everything in
the movies is twisty ways for the stage
actor. At first I missed the crowds
out front and the footlights 'foots,'
we call them and the crowded reeling
one has waiting for one's cue off
stage. "But there are compensations also
hardships a-plenty. For instance, we
are staging now a Hawaiian play. It
is founded on an old legend, and we
have been working near a big pool up
in one of the beautiful valleys back of
the city Nuuanu valley, I believe
they call it. Anyway the pool is sup

"Tell aie some more," begged the in
terviewer. "About the movies? Well, the most
difficult thing to me has been the
work on the streets. Of course, I am
used to acting before people but in the
theater you have the sense of being
separated by the footlights and the or
chestra, while work before the cam
era is done with the crowd at your el
bow, so to speak.

"The Tourist" promises hot only to j
be a great success from a histrionic i

and musical standpoint but from a
social standpoint as well. The cast
includes nearly all the best singers
in Honolulu, as well as several who
have made reputations in the line of
acting, and all are people well known
to the community.
The idea in the production of "The
Tourist" is to help make Carnival
week a huge success. The three per
formances will help fill up the week
and give visitors to the city some
thing to do to amuse themselves.
The name of the play is certain to
attract them and they will go to see
what Honolulu has to say about the
tourist. Incidentally, the production
of th operetta will help the carnival
committee in a financial way.

have consented to take part, and also
