MARY PICKF‘ORD IN A DIFI’

irrespective of her own desires.
IIcr recognition of this tether,
and some of her mounting rebellion
against it. is evident in her new pm-
duction. now being filmed. and prob-
ably to be called "The Street Singer."
It was selected. after heart-meal:-
lng renunciation of "Faust.” R because
it offered a compromise between what
she feels her admirers' demand and
what Mary would really like to do.
As a. Spanish street waif in s ro-
mantic episode of a. decadent period.
Miss Pickford eesnyn "growing up"
on the screen. discarding the famous
curls and the ingeuue gesture for
something more wind and mature.
She approached the pew .role with

as quite a mature. And rather than

"All my life I've wanted to do big
dramatic things. roles like Marguerite
in 'Faust'." she said. explaining her
alliludo toward the compromise of
“The Street Singcr." “But I'm
afraid the public wouldn't accept them
from me.
“I realize I’ve established a tradi-
tion and standing which I don't want
to shatter. People come to see my
picturcs in a certain mood. based on
my past performances. if that ex-
pcctnncy isn't gratified. if i'm out of
the usual character. they are disap-
pointed."
There you have Mary Pickford's
onn definition of her rim-cry. The
greatest cinema star is today probably
the most dissatisfied of them all. She

"I don't want to exploit my own
personallly.‘ she emphasised. “ I don't
want to be Mary Pickford in this or
that. In the present picture I shall
feel I have failed if I haven't entirely
immersed my own personality in that
of the Spanish girl. I have tried to
be a piece of clay in Mr. Lubitsch's
directorial hands: to elimlnnta on
my characteristic gestures and idio-
syncrasies.
"I have reached the point where I
should have keen satisfaction in
helping produce a big saeen success
even though I.shouldn't appear in it
at all. And certainly I'd far rather
have a small part that fiitcd'con-
yinclngly into a good picture than the
biggest part in a poor or mediocre

for the successful carrying through of
the appropriation for the prerervation
to future Missouri of the staunch old
building.
Back of this brief bit at ncws.
carried in recent dispatches is the in-
teresting little romance. says the Kun-
sas City star. It concerns Mrs. .Vet-
lie Morris Dixon. from whom the
Old Tavern has been purchased by
the state. who is the principal characo ,
ter in the romance. and to whom
Missouri also owes a. debt of gratitude
for the preservation of a number of
valuable relics in the Old Tavern.
which also becomes state property.
Several years ago happiness dicd:
for Mrs. Dixon. then Mrs. Nettie Mor-
ris Proctor of Monroe City, and her
home was broken up under particu-
larly distressing circumstances. Her
health failed under the strain, and
in an effort to forget her troublem,
she went to Arrow Rock to visit rela-
tivcs. The daughter of pioneers and
the granddaughter of that intrepid
Robert Morris. who helped finance
tho American Revolution. she became
tremendously interested in the quaint
old tavern. so full of early Missouri
history. The more she learned in
research tho more absorbed she be-
came. When she finally heard that
it was to be sold and its precious con-
tents scattered to the four winds, she
promptly purchased it and began its?
restoration to its early appearance. It
was a long process for with her own
hands she scraped ol the blue and red
point some former owner. without
imagination. had dsubed the fine old
woodwork and refinished it more in
keeping. She spent months scrubbing
and scrubbing to bring back to life
other beauties long buried in the old
building and restored it largely to
its early day look. Then she began
enthusiastically collecting old furni-
ture and genuine antiques belomringt
to Missouri’s “first families" to add to
the nucleus already belonging to the
tavern. L ,
"there wasn't a. public sale in the
country I didn’t attend.” laughed Mrs.
Dixon in telling about it not long
ago. "There wasn't any Missouri

Away tot-Jeorsnnd years. It took
two weeks of scraping and work to
remove the dirt accumulated in that
time. But wasn't it worth it? There
are a lot of things. Mrs. Dixon kept
'u chronicle of any interesting histor-
ical facts concerning what she added
to the taverns collection so she is
able to tell the exact story of virufllly
cycrythlng under its roof. In the
meantime. she organized a Chapter of
the Daughters of the American Revo-
- lution at Arrow Rock and this brought
the loan of many more relics from
members. These things Mrs. Dixon
labeled and gathered together for the
most part in the old lap room of the
tavern which she lhre'w open to tho
townspeople and public for n" com-
munity meeting place. This helped
spread interest in the old place. and
its history.
Best of all. however. in the two o!
three years Mrs. Dixon toiled over
the tavern. pence gradually came to
her and in the absorption in her work
her troubles rccedcd more and more
into the background and her health
slowly returned. As for the romance
back of it all. it is represented very
properly in the person of Lester Dix-
dcsccndcnt of I
long line of worthy Missouri pioneer.
whose courage helped hew. first Ar-
row Rock and then state civilisation
out of a Missouri wilderness. and who
came into her life while she tolled to
preserve it nil. He brought with hill!
the return of happiness for Mrs. Dim
and compensation for all she had on-
dured in tho past and when they
were married in Arrow Rock and took
up their life in the romantic old tav-
ern there was little doubt nbout their
being happy forever after.
Mrs. Dixon has written considerably
under the name of Susan Hale. and to
an organiztnlr regent of the Daughters
of the American Revolution.
