WHAT A YUMPER.A

With the advent Of cold weather
and snow, ski running becomes a
popular sport in northern countries,
where many of the residents ARE,
descendants of the Vikings Of sbld. :
The hardy Swedes and NorwegfAns
are as much at home upon skis as
the average boy upon roller orodce1
skates, and some of their featsoare
wonderful. Not only do the ex-
perts cover long distances on skis,
over snow covered ground, but
they coast down hills at terrific
speed, apparently without a thought
of danger. Ski jumping is the
height of the ski runners ability,
and some great records have been
made by experts. That the young
sters are experts in. jumping is
demonstrated in the accompanying

| Mrs. Leslie Carriers experience with
reporters Just after she was married
to Frank Paine nineteen months age
has made her the arch enemy OF
newspapers. She has decided that
newspapers are good for but one
thing. the publication of advance
notices concerning herself which are
prepared by her own private pencil
rusher, the notices being carefully
censored by her at the beginning OF
each season, says the Evansville
Courier,
Her marriage to Mr. Paine put an
end to her engagement with David
Belasco. That has always been a
source of regret to the actress though
she is stiIl in love with her husband
and gives him work to do as her bust
ness manager.

with Mrs. Carter yesterday and last
night were left to cool their heels in
the lobby of the hotel while Mrs. Car
ter-Paine took her own good time in
sending word that she couldn't pos
sibly see you"
Mr.. Paine, was found in the lobby
OF the theater and being a pleasant
fellow consented to give a second
hand interview for his wife who was
at that time adding to wealth and
fame by presenting Madame Du
Barry" to a packed house at the
Wells Bijou. He couldn't be pre-
vailed upon to speak of the marriage.
"The trouble Mrs. Carter had with
Mr.. Belasco was most unfortunate,
he said, "and was all brought about
by reporters crediting her with state
ments she never made. She really
granted two interviews and the re-
pcrters went away and twisted her
sentences SO that they didn't mean
what she intended they should. Since
then she has never granted an inter
view anywhere.
"She does not consider Du Barry
an immoral play. If she did she
wouldn't appear in it. 1t is based on
history, affords her wonderful OPP
