+. Stone, sergeant At arms of the re-
publican national convention tonight
appealed to Mayor Harrison for po-
lice protection at tomororw's ses-

erations.
Several members said they had
heard reports of a planned Roosevelt
demonstration.
There will be no rough house in
the committee. neither will there be
any demonstration permitted outside

Senator Dixon, Roosevelt's man

man looks ike Ian lTlInaCulaIe
beau brummel in his everyday
street attire,
He is real, not make believe.
He is human, not spotlight
spoiled.
He looks what he is, a Virgin
ian. His eyes are blue. His brown
hair is a trife curly (the genuine
actor brandt and his physique is
an athletes. For four years while
he was playing in stock in New
York, he was known as the best
sculptor's model.
Success as a moving picture
player, Bushman says, depends
on big quantity of the following
qualities:
Nerve.
Readiness to take any chance
which may add realism to a pic
ture.
A Thorough knowledge Of ges-
ture.
A definite personality.
Good habits.
An athletic, supple body.
From my own observations /
concluded the greatest difference
between a photo player (the cor
rect name, by the way and the
ordinary actor is his READINESS.
The secret is the naturalness
with which. he works and plays
and lives.
Let me pass on to you a few
things Bushman told me. about
his profession.
"The art of moving picture
playing is the art of pantomime.
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1912-12-02

"a man may be ever such a
wonder in the regular theatrical
production and a complete fail
ure in moving picture-because
he knows little Of gesture or the
value of action.
Gesture is the photo players
greatest weapon. He must be
able to gauge action by seconds.
Personality is his one best bet for
popularity with the public,
"You can't fake in a moving
picture. You just have to live the
part.
"The moving picture field is a
wonderful one in which to play
new characters, but if you've
never tried it, you don't know
what it means to act without an
audience"
Bushman is under contract at
the Essanay studio. If any one
were to ask him what he will
have to do tomorrow he would
probably be as much in the dark
as the questioner.
And if someone else wanted
him to recount the narrow es-
capes and dangerous experiences
he has already had, he wouldn't
know which to tell first. Falling
out of burning buildings (which
actually burned), Jumping off
high cliffs, rolling down mountain
sides and struggling hand-to-
hand with the "villain" are all in
a days work for Bushman.

The health board offers the argu-
ment that the mother-fed baby, getting
it's milk fresh and pure, is always the
