APITALIzE your faults and ap-
n ply the accrued result to win
~ success"
That Is the cryptic ADVICE
pf city Ruth Chatterton gave reoentiy
when she was invited to speak before
u girls club on the easiest way 70 get
a start up the ladder Of fame-
Don't get that word capitalize con-
fused with cultivate she continued,
for II doesn't mean at all the same
thing. Indeed. you will ind when you
begin your work Of capitalization your
faults Will begin to lessen In fact,
you will fee like fault spendthrifts.
1T may seem funny for me to urge
you not to go bankrupt In the fault
line, but can assure you, with knowi-
edge of what I say, that the person ab-
solutely without faults must be very
STUPID ind vidual. I never knew but
one. and had he possessed even one ht-
tie bit OF a :,enuine fault it would have
made him .-.ore human. As Il was, ne
was a sort of uninteresttng machine
without complexity Of mechanism 10
make him worth while
when you begin to turn your faults
into working capital you will constantly
find new material to work with. SO as
one resource is exhausted you win ind
some perfectly fresh fault to take It's
place.
Take, for example. the fault, Of self
ishness. You may turn that about so
that 1t will become the most valuable
Of assets. II you are selfish with your
friends and companions you will prob
abiy te very extravagant with your
self. because the result of being selfish
with others is natural accumulation
of self-indulgence.
Begin by reversing your conduct and
be more generous with others and sell
fish with yourself. Why. You viii be
perfectly astounded to see how quickly
yor will begin to CLIP coupons Of friend
ship and love and happiness.
Then take the fault of talking all
the time about yourself. That Is sach q
tiresome fault that before We realize
It we have to keep alert to find any
one who will listen to us. Stop for
awhile until you can collect some new
facts about yourself which will compel
attention, and In the mean time talk
about things-let personalities have q
rest. You know the old line from Alice
in Honderlsnd'-'The world Is so full

The Air Torpedo.
(Warner's Features.)

7 the beginning of the story
n Colonel Crawford has COM
~ pleted a device for dropping
explosive shells from areo-
planes while in full flight. Requested
by his government to guard the
plans of the invention with his life.
IL need be. he has installed a safe
in his home in which the plans are
kept. Colonel Crawford's Son is con-
tinually getting into scrapes frCm
which he is quite often rescued by
his sister, who is married to Lieu
tenant Gordon, an attache of Colonel
Crawford's staff. Young Crawford
has unfortunately borrowed $4,000
from one of his companions, who is
spy in disguise. Pressed for money.
the ungrateful son resolves to steal
the plans of his fathers invention to
settle his loan with the scoundrelly
Mcdonald. Young Crawford exc
cutes the theft I'm the middle of the
night in the presence of his sister.
who has followed him into the room.
When dawn breaks, Lieutenant Cor
don finds his wife in a stupor. the
safe door swinging open. and every
evidence that the thief has made a
clean getaway. The military detec-
tives who are called In to investigate
discover Lieutenant Gordon's gloves
on the table. snd lock him up as the
culprit To save her husband Colone!
Crawford's daughter informs her
father that his son is the real thief.
The end of the story Is as thrilling
as II is unexpected.

New York's Mayor Gives
Approval to School Film

Mayor Mitchell. Of New York. has ex-
pressed his unqualified approval of the
plans formed by the Safety First So
ciety to employ motion pictures. In the
public schools and in the safety first
organizations, In waging its campaign
to reduce the number OF deaths on the
public highways Of New York. The
mayor said:

There is another idea that works
in with this. There have been a
number of serial films produced
within the past few years. The
stories of What Happened to
Mary Who Will Marry Nary"
''Cleek," King Of the Detective,
Kathryn" etc, were issued at per-
ioJs from two weeks to a month
al.art. Most of those mentioned have
l;een completed or are about to be.
Why wouldn't il BE- 4 good thing for
an enterprising park manager to get
held of all the sections of the ser
iaIs and snow one each night until
the story is completed? 1t would be
like the publication Of a story In
look form after it had been printed
serially in the magazines.

Mrs. Tabby had taken Tessie with
