TYRONE POWER AS "MAVERICK BRANDER."
"Wnilain "Winter, dramatic critic, in ills boot on the life of Tyrone Power, saya that Power will go down in Btage history great an. artist aa Booth, Barrett or John McCullough. Every one knows of the distinguished 6tage career of Power who played Brutus to Faversham's Marc Antony; supported Sir Henry Irving and Helen Terry; rcored as "the Marquis of Steyne," In Mrs. Fiske's production of "Becky Sharp," and was a leading member of Augustin Daly's great company of artists of the spoken drama. Editorial Not. By TYRONE POWER. I ain proud to appear In the silent drama and I am delighted to be a member of the great Sella Polyscope company, for Mr. William N. Selig's artistlo conceptions appeal to me, and I feel perfectly at home In the Selig environment. I feel there are opportunities in motion picture work that are somewhat lacking in stage art. Yes, even such an old stager as myself is obliged to admit this fact. I concluded upon taking up this work to permit the director to direct and the actor to act. Maybe the failures registered by some actors and actresses, who turn to the motion pictures, are caused by the fact that they assume a know-it-all attitude. They refuse instruction, claiming that years of experience on the stage cause them to be well qualified to act for the screen. For my part, I have found many new details to comprehend much new "business" that is peculiarly identified with the animated screen. The art of make-up, for example, must be altered to a certain extent. Make-up appropriate for the footlights will never do in the motion picture studio. Then again, there Is new technique to comprehend, a more limited space for the action, and there is no audience to spur one along. I confess that for a time I held the attitude of many other well-known actors toward the silent drama. I thought the Industry but a flash in the pan. But with the advancement, the wonderful strides onward and upward, I experienced a change of heart. I was informed that people who never before could afford to see my acting would now be given an opportunity because the prices for the silent drama are not so high. I was Informed that pictureplay audiences were exacting, and as appreciative and as pliant as those who frequent ' the legitimate theaters. I believe this to be true. I have been visiting many pictureplay theaters, and I have been studying the audiences. I believe that my art will not suffer and that I am in a humble way contributing to the enjoyment of the masses, when I try to do my best in pictureplay land. I believe that If Sir Henry Irving, that great actor, were alive, that he would perpetuate his art for future generations through the medium of motion pictures. I was playing Bocassio in Sir Henry's London production, I well remember, and one night his dresser came to me and said Sir Henry wanted to 6ee me. Attired in a resplendent robe, I mounted the stairs to Sir Henry's dressing room. He was seated before his dressing table making up for his wonderful character role. I can aee him vividly In my mind's eye. "Power," said he,
"who was the greatest of all Englishspeaking actors?" One of the greatest of actors sat there, but without reflection, I said: "Edmund Kean, perhaps." "Ah-h-h, right you are," exclaimed Sir Henry. "Edmund Kean was the greatest of English speaking actors the little man In the cape." Mrs. Powers and I have a little eon, and naturally all our hopes are centered in him. And when he grows in years the art of the motion picturfrs will do much for his education. He will have educational advantages that I never had. His mind will be-broadened without the vexations of extended travel; he will have learned at an early age the wonderful story of the bee and other Eecrets of nature, his imagination will have been cultivated by visits to motion picture dramas of higher class; without imagination a human being is nothing. When a boy I read fairy tale3 Illustrated with colored plates. My son can see the living, moving fairy storiea on the motion picture screen, and fairy stories are educating for they cultivate the imagination; bring higher thoughts and fancies; tend to refinement and gentleness. The art of the motion picture Is wonderful. The McCauley of future historical events will not be obliged tc depend upon the opinions, and the Ideas, and the prejudices of others. In stead he will enter a large record room, ask for motion picture films ol this or that period, and he will see at first hand the modes of dress, the architecture, the armaments, the customs of living of the people of that particular historical period. Before the advent of the motion pic ture. some Europeans believed that Buffalo, N. Y., was eo named because buffaloes roamed there; they thought Chicago was . on the border of the western wilderness. After the motion picture had flashed true to life scenes in and about these great cities, the Europeans received a more enlightened conception of the, life and wonders of this great country I believe that between the pillars of the great churches, the motion picture screen will sooner or later be permanently fastened. Why not? Seeing is believing! Pointing to the motion picture screen as the pictures appear, the clergyman will exclaim: "This is Jerusalem; here we see the Mount of Olives; here is where the Eible tells us Christ wa3 crucified; this is the Sea of Galilee. In this manner the Bible will be made yet more dear to many, and its lessons made the more vivid and impressive. And I often hear adverse comments upon the melodrama of the motion pictures. This melodrama la not so bad; I speak from experience; theve is always a moral lesson in mcvie melodrama and many are beautifully pictured like great paintings of tragic action. We must all have our tragedies, our melodramas in real life, and what, by the way, is more melodramatic than the Bible and Shakespeare? I have put my best work into the character of "Maverick Brander," the Texas Cattle King in Charles Hoyt's play "A Texas Steer," released as a Selig Red Seal play. There are many opportunities In that character role for humorous work.
