BUILDS NEST IN FLOWER POT
The accidental discovery of mouse's
nest in the bottom Of flower pot has
cleared up the mystery of scrawny,
whitening plants in the Office Of tie
Oliver Mining Company. The plants
had been treated with NJ kinds ~ 10
tions supposed 20 resuscitate them but

tor was directed TO change the earth in
the pots. When he turned the first pot
upside down and shook the earth loose,
out popped whole nest Of squirming
tiny mice not quite old enough to have
their eyes open.
An investigation was then conducted
and IL was found that the mice had
burrowed down through the earth TO
the bottom of the big jar A tiny
trail OF paper fiber lead mp to blue
print of the mine and exploration that
had been mapped cut by engineers, and
laid away on shelf. A connecting
link between the nest and Official draw

tablished The mice had literally
chewed up the blue print and carried
il down the mine they had dug In the
flower pot TO make their nest 80
cIeverly had they rooted over the nest
with blue print paper, that the water
poured into the top OF the jar was di-
yerted so that the little mice were pro-
tected, and comfortably nestled to-

surface of the flower pot Quick
work was made Of the brood and all
the plants are now free from mouse
nests. and recurrence OF the pests has
been prevented by the plentiful use OF
mouse traps scattered about the mine

Woman has been an inferior crea-
ture ever since the human race was
developed, and she must always re-
main so. The presence OF large mum
bers OF women In occupations hitherto
monopolized by man is unnatural and
indicates racial decline or at least
racial stagnation. This is an unpro-
gressiye age. and on this ground alone
can be explained the relative success
OF woman In competition with man"
That Is the opinion Just voiced by
Professor Frederick Starr. who holds

No face is more familiar to the patrons of the moving picture theater than that of G. M. Anderson, creator of "BrOncho Billy He is one of the first actors who ever performed be- fore a motion picture camera and in his favorite role he is perhaps the most popular phOtOplay actor of the age. The most remarkable thing about C. M. Anderson is the fact that he not only directs all the plays in which he performs, but invariably works without a scenario. He creates most of his situations and scenes as he goes along, a feat which so far as is known has not been accomplished with any success by any other di rector-actor Anderson is part owner of the Essanay company, and as Goldberg would say, He is the guy who put the A in Essanay.

The Path of The Picture Play

The Melies nd-the-world party, during their recent visit to the Dutch East Indies, departed from the photo play long enough to make a remark ably instructive reel of film showing the culture of rice, the staff of life" in the far East. Fully two thirds of the land under cultivation in Java is planted in rice.
 The film starts with the ploughing of dry ground by the water buffalo, then is shown the ploughing of the flooded field, where the beasts struggle along through mud knee deep. The grain is soWn thckly and after it reaches a growth of about fourteen inches is transplanted further apart into flooded fields where the water is left on it for several weeks. The work Is done almost entirely by JavaneSe women, who stand knee deep in the mud and water with their skirts tucked up after the latest fashion
 The harvesting is done by women and children who go through the fields shipping off the grain from the stalks. These heads are then taken to the tread

His stage experience was gained in stock which is excellent training for one called upon to interpret a variety of roles.

 Under the title Field Sports at Hong Kong, China, the Vitagraph company releases a film which cannot fail to in- terest all lovers of outdoor sports. It shows how athletes are developed on the other side of the world. Hong Kong, being an English treaty port, is the most up-to-date city in the Orient and the audience is largely composed of English and Americans of the better class These games show to what a remarkable degree the initiative feat ure of the Chinese is applied in ath letics. Their hurdle races, jumping contests and other events would do credit to some of our leading colleges.
 Motion picture fans throughout the country are showing unusual interest in the recent announcement of Pathe F'reres of their intention to issue two Pathe Weekly films each week.

The Heroine of the Mary" Pictures
 Miss Mary Fuller, the popular hero inc of the What Happened to Mary" series, is one of the best loved and most remarkable little actresses who ever have apepared on the screen.
 Miss Fuller does not rely on her personal charms alone for she is a profound student with the highest ideals in her profession. Her versa taility is remarkable. She not only designs her own costumes, but has proven herself q scenario writer of no mean ability. Many of her photo plays have been produced with great success Before becoming a member of the Edison company she was a favorite of the Vitagraph company, appearing in many different and diff ficult roles Miss Fuller takes great pleasure not only in the making of pictures but in their projection as we'll She is a close student of her own efforts and through observation of the many pictures in which she has appeared, is constantly striving to make her acting more effective.

Miss McCOY's entire motion picture experience has been gained in the Edi- son company and although she makes an instantaneous appeal through her personal beauty and grace, her final charm lies in the deep sincerity with which she plays every part.

 The process of WinnoWing, the next step, is equally as crude. One man stands on a raised platform four feet from the ground and, holding the small basket of grain above his head, empties it in such q way that in it's descent the husks are blown aside and the clean grain falls in pile on the ground. Here it is measured into bags and hauled away to the warehouses.
