A woman 60 years old is studying in n
unique school TO become n motion picture
actress. The pupil, undeterred by her age
or the objection OF her two grown sons, Is
enrolled as Miss Marsha Devices" of
| Chester, who adopted the stage name to
keep her friends in ignorance of her stud
les. She is the eldest of 30 pupils enrolled
| in the Liberty Motion Picture Company's
school, conducted by Jack" German in
the building which houses the studios Of
the company, on East Herman street near
Germantown avenue. Al air Of secrecy
hovers over the registration books in the
deans" office. for many of the younger
pupils are said to be popular in German
town society Rnd-oh, they wouldn't want
II known now that they are studying how
to be movie actresses.
Because there are not enough clever
people in Philadelphia for picture work" I"
the school was founded May g. Miss
Devices was one of the first to enroll
and after her many well-known young
men and women matriculated. Some of
the students are telephone operators.
others are clerks. There may be an
other Mary Pickford in the classes" said
j. Burton Muslin, general manager Of
the company.
According TO Director German, no other
school is maintained by a film company.
The course OF instruction covers period
of 10 weeks and the classes are divided
according to advancement. The trial class
covers period Of two weeks, in which
pupils are tested for natural ability Then,
If they show ability, they arc promoted
to the second class and are given small
parts in the films OF the company. In the
third class tho seniors pose for prin-
cipal parts. The successful graduates,
said Director German. will be engaged by
the company, of which William S. Lloyd,
of 2SS West Harvey street. is president.

LEDGER CENTRAL PICKS
SCHOOL FOR MARJORIE
Mr.. and Mrs. Mann Consult
Expert and Are Advised
Where to Send Daughter.

Mother" said Mr.. Mann to his wife th'
other evening. what are we going &c
do about school for Marjorie next win
teri"
Yes" said Mrs. Mann, what are we
going TO do? I've been thinking good
deal about II lately because we really
must decide soon one way or the other.
have not said anything for l thought
would let you and out Just how things
we're going so we might have something
to work on"
Mr.. Mann said nothing for a few min
utes and puffed at his pipe with his eyes
on the ceiling. "If we can ind a place
that is not too expensive" he finally re-
marked, ~ think 1 can manage It all
right
Mrs. Manns face frightened and a
smile of great relief passed over It.
| "Oh," she said, II am so glad. / have
worried about It more than l wanted,
| you know. 1 hate tho thought of Mar
jorle not having every chance possible.
Where do you suppose we can send herr
I'VE won't discuss that until 1 have
consulted our old standby, Ledger Cen
trail" said Mr.. Mann.
"Gracious." said Mrs. Mann, "is there
anything that place cannot do for the
Mann family?" And she got up to help
her husband close the house.
The next night after dinner, Mr.. and
Mrs. Mann had a long conference behind
closed doors, TINT mystified the rest OF
the family, to say the least
Ledger Central Is the most wonderful
place / know Of" was Mr.. Mann's first
comment when they were alone. while
a school is not thing to pick out on the
spur of the moment, / feel that the mat
ter is very nearly settled now, providing
the place have In mind meets with your
approval"
"If you arc satisfied" answered Mrs
Mann, II am quite sure will be. Tell
mo little about It."
"Well, talked quite while with the
school expert at Ledger Central and 1t
did not take me a minute to find out that
your old school is not the place II once
was. think It must have deteriorated
considerably. The young man would not
say anything against 1t, but 1 gathered
from what he did not say about 1t that
there were places that would be better
for our need, at least. Out of list of
I don't know how many hundred schools
he picked four which qualified as to the
price / felt willing to pay and which
seemed equipped to give Marjorie the
training we want her to get. He per-
sonally recommended all of them, said
he had been to each one and described
them for me in better fashion than a hun
dred catalogues could have done"
Mrs. Mann went to bed a very happy
woman that night. That Marjorie was to
have a boarding-school education was as
sured and the ambition of her mother
realized. 1t was only a question of one
of four equally attractive places.

GroOn Sons Object But Miss Marsha DeOees" of Chester,
Simply Cannot Resist ALurement of "MoUe" SGge-Cbtd
of Eight Summers Studies Camera Art.

Regular lecture hours, from to s
o'clock in the afternoon and from to 10
at night, are maintained. The pupils
study lines" foreground" express
sion,' makeup" and all the other
branches which are as plain as Arabic to
the layman. They learn from books and
demonstrations and from the films for
which they have posed. Their motions
are reproduced before them on a screen
in the class room and are criticized by
the director and his two assistants. And
what is more enjoyable, they can have
the pleasure OF dropping into movie"
parlor and seeing themselves as others
see them.
Several stars" are expected to develop
from the student body. Two pupils be-
sides Miss Devices, who arc making good
records, according to their grades" are
Miss Eloise brennan. of Frankford, who
entered the school three weeks ago. and
Baby EN-" German, the directors
daughter, who is years old, and the
youngest pupil.
THE Island of Surprise" from the story
of the Rev. Cyrus Townsend Brady, is in
course of production at the Vitagraph
studio, with William Courtenay In tho
leading role. This appearance will mark
Mr. Courtenay's screen debut, and he will
nave the benefit of an all-star combina-
tion through the fact that Edith Storey Is
to be seen in the leading female role.
Others in the cast include Julia Swayne
Gordon, Zena Keefe, Charles Kent, An
