It has generally been the rule in the past that child stars fade into comparative obscurity when they grow up and fail to keep up the success which was theirs as juveniles. An outstanding exception to this tradition is Mitzi Green, talented 16-year-olo now starring in a Broadway revue

She made a name for herself in movies a decade ago and is now apparently on the threshold of even greater success. As a singer, dancer and mimic, she is one of the most versatile young ladies in show business and is scheduled for her first adult role in pictures this fall.

Large-scale outrages designed to mar the visit of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth to the Ulster capital broke out In Belfast as the first British rulers to visit Irish soil in 16 years arrived. Customs huts were blown up and burned, a bridge

partially wrecked and riotous demonstrations staged. Authorities stated that Extremist Republicans were responsible for the outrages. Scenes were common such as the above, when unemployed clashed in the streets several years ago. -

/^ITTE Cathrdrnl Square V_JJ bursting with people.

fflDt At one corner stood Mercutio uud Benvolio, meeting as befit idle ,'oung gentlei-.en, to exchange the jossip of the day, to discuss the

ment. ‘‘Good heart and in faith I will tell her as much,’’ she said. Romeo glared in exasperation. “What wilt thou tell her?” he

cried.

”1 will tell her sir, that you do protest. Which, as I take it, is a gentlemanlike offer.” He sighed with relief. “Bid her devise some means to come to prayer this afternoon," he whispered. "There she shall at Friar Laurence's cell be shrived and married.'* “She shall be there,” she promised and flounced off. She did not look back, but hurried through the Square and dowH the street leading to the Capulet garden.. At the gate she stopped and peered dow’n the path for her mistress. She heard Juliet’s voice and wondered to whom she might be speaking until she saw the girl bending over the sun dial, her face lined with impatience. ’The clock struck nine when I did send her,” Juliet was saying. “In half an hour she promised to return. Perhaps she cannot meet him." Her eyes filled with fright. “No. That's not so!” she mused and looked hack at the dial. "Oh. she is lame!” she cried. “Love’s heralds should be thoughts which ten times faster glide than the sun’s beams. From nine till twelve is three long hours; yet she Is not come. Had she affections and warm youth's full blood, she'd as swift in motion as a ball—” she looked up and saw her nurse plodding indignantly up the path. "Oh, honey, nurse,” she cried. “What news?” She ran for-

“What haste!” was the grumbling answer, as the nurse sat herself

along under an enormous fan.

Mercutio and Benvolio followed his glance. The former burst into guffaws. "A sail!” he cried, shading his eyes with his hand. "A sail!” And truly, the nurse, shaded by the huge faa, did look like some enormous boat travelling under power of an open sail. She was intently examining the faces of those She passed. As she approached the three friends she bowed. “Can any of you tell me where 1 may find the

young Romeo?” she asked.

“I am he,” answered Romeo step-

ping forward to meet her.

“I desire some confidence with you, sir.” she replied and motioned

him asidi

Benvolio winked knowingly at Mercutio "She will invite him to supper,” ho remarked, and bowled over with laughter at the prospect,

they started off.

The nurse wheeled about inuig Mtntly. “I pray you sir,” she demanded of Romeo, "what saucy

■fcerchant was this?”

Romeo waved them away. A gentleman, nurse, that loves to hear

himself talk.”

But her indignation was too great to be overcome so readily; "I’d tase him down,” she shouted. “Hcurvy knave.” And for half an hour gave vent to her wrath while Romeo, consumed with impatience, waited

lor her message.

“Pray you sir,’ she said finally, ■A word. My young lady bade me inquire you out. What she bade me

cay—”

Romeo’s face lit with eagerness. "I shall keep to myself what she bade me say,” finished the nurse tersely. , , , His eyes fell upon her so pleadingly that she was forced to relent. “Well,” she hesitated. "Firs!, let me tell you, if ye should lead her into a fool's paradise as they say, it were ft very gross kind of behaviour, as they say. For the gentlewoman is y-ting. and therefore, if you should Anil double to her, truly it were an 01 f».tng to be offering to any genttywoman and very weak dealing. Botrfto stopped her impatiently. -* protest unto thee. Nurse commend me to thy lady and mistress. 8tae eyed him silently for » mo-

tily.

“My back—”

Juliet ministered to her back. “T'other side,” complained the nurse. "Oh my back. My back. Beshrew your heart for sending mo about to catch my death with jaunt-

ing up and down!”

Juliet was beside herself. ”1 nm sorry thou art not well, sweet, sweet, sweet nurse,” she begged. "Tell mo

what says my love.”

“Your love says,” returned the nurse, “like an honest gentleman and a courteous, and a kind, and a handsome, and, I warrant, a virtuous —” she broke off and looked toward the house. “Where is your

mother?” she questioned.

“Where is my mother?” cried Juliet. “Why she is within. Where should she be? How oddly thou repliest: ‘Your love says like an honest gentleman where is your

mother’.”

"O Cod’s lady dear,” shouted the nurse bouncing up from the bench, "Is this the poultice for my aching bones? Henceforward do your messages yourself.” Juliet seized her firmly. “What says Romeo?” she demanded. The nurse glanced about cautiously. "Have you got leave to go to

shrift today?” she whispered.

Juliet nodded.

"Then hie you hence to Friar Laurence’ cell. There stays a hus-

band to make you wife.”

Tears of joy sparkled in Julict’a eyes. With a last look at the sun dial to determine how much time remained in which to prepare herself, she raced joyfully into the

house.

And, as the shadows lengthened on the dial in her garden, Juliet and Romeo knelt in the little chapel whilo Friar Laurence intoned their

ma'./age service.
