tie ''stunt" in connection with some pet
legislative project of his, the rule is that
ne very promptly accepts the invitation,
for he knows the picture is quite likely
eventually to be exhibited in his district.
Apropos, of this, an amusing incident
occurred recently on the east front steps
of the House end of the Capitol. Three
Pennsylvania Congressman, Donohoe and
Logue of Philadelphia, and Lee of Potts
vile, have been making a vigorous fight
for 1,700-foot drydock for the League
Island Navy Yard at Philadelphia, a
project Of vast interest in the keystone
State.
A moving picture firm asked them to
do ''stunt of walking slowly down the
long wide marble steps toward the cam
era, discussing heatedly the drydock
proposition, aninvitation they accepted
with alacrity. They had couple of re-
hearsals in which Lee was told to stop
talking with both hands, Donohoe to
stop his ''grinning" and Logue ordered
peremptorily to quit trying to monopolize
the ''center of the stage"
By some curious faux pas, the three

participating in the fiction picture. The
actors were almost jealous of the realis-
tic acting of the statesmen as they un-
consciously walked, gesticulating and
talking excitedly, toward the camera
Keeling off the sensational political drama.
1t was some time before matters could
be Strengthened out, and even then a
goodly crowd of curious spectators were
certain that the Donohoe-Lee-Logue act
was part of the professional film, al
though the movies" stage manager in
sisted that the representatives. We're only
