"LES MISERABLES" AT
REX TODAY AND WEDNESDAY
William Farnum regards hjs Jean
Valjean,* In "Les Mdserables," which
will be shown at the' Rex theatre be
ginning today as the greatest achieve
ment of his career. It is indeed a
superb piece of character work, on
the highest histrionic level, etching a
Valjean who lives' forever after in,
memory.
Whistles blew, bells rang, and
people cheered, when William Far
num was bom. The newspapers
printed pictures of the American flag,
and all over the country orators made
speeches. Throughout the length and
breadth of the.United States every
one, rejoiced.
It was the Fourth of July, 1876.
The celebration was particularly
glorious in Farnum's birthplace. Al
most in the shadow of Bunker Hill
Monument, the new baby came into,
the world. He gave occasion to double
rejoicing in the household of "Dusty"
Farnum, his father, a famous player
of the day.
After a few years in Boston, Wil
liam's family moved to *Bucksport,
Mo.' There the young man learned
two thingsthe usual education ac
corded children, and music. He be
came leading cornetist in the Bucks
port band.
Later, William returned to Boston.
His father, who had a stock company
there, gave his son an engagement
when he was only fourteen years old.
His theatrical education, thus 'begun,
was continued through Jp hundred
minor roles in all the plays of Shakes
peare. The schooling was severe* but
thorough.
