Cast Of Amateurs.
All Of the cast had their first ex-
penence before a moving picture
camera The first scenes taken, the
actors admit themselves, were rather
stiff. but after the little company got
into their work, they all improved and
there is really some clever acting in
the play at various points.
The girls who take the two lead
ing parts were chosen in a voting
contest conducted through the cou-
pons printed in The Gate City and
thousands of votes were cast. Miss
Nina Hodge was chosen for Helen
Strong and Miss Marie Weber for the
part Of Mary Rankin.
Frank X. Kenney takes the part of
Jack Rankin, the Keokuk boy. He
acted as director of the show. Louis
A. Royane takes the part OF Charlie
Strong. T. A. Craig has an important
part as Henry Strong, the st. Paul
manufacturer. The doctors part is
taken by Dr.. F. M. Fuller.
Mrs. T. p Gray takes the part of
the mother of Mary and Jack Rankin
and Miss Emmanuella Flood has a
part as sister to Helen Strong.
Then there Is the william who all
along has insisted that his name must
not be made public. His-friends will
recognize him in the picture, but he
does not want his name published.
As he said the other day: If ! have
to be the goat in this picture. it will
be notoriety enough. My name must
not be published"

Mary Pickford Tomorrow.

In the role of the waif of the Lon
don slums, in The Dawn of a To-
morrow the great dramatic success
by Frances Hodgson Burnett, Mary
Pickford. the foremost exponent Of
the screen, literally is irresistible. Her
role and characterization dominate
the play and give to this celebrated
subject a vitality and appeal which
even its inherent strength would not
possess without her. This latest pro-
duction of the Famous Players Film
Co., on the Paramount program will
do much to advance it's artistic stand
ard and the immense and almost I'M
measurable popularity of Mary Pick
ford.
Although Little Mary is the cen
ter Of all interest in the production,

evolve about her. she is exceptionally
supported by sterling cast including

An Interesting Story.
"The Heart of Keokuk' Is an inter-
esting story and would make a splen-
did photoplay even were it not pro-
duced in Keokuk by Keokuk people.
The scenario was written by Edward
Fountain Carter and tells story OF
happening supposed to have taken
place here at home. It contains love,
pathos, tragedy, comedy, little OF
everything all connected together in
safe and sane tale which brings
forth what the heart of Keokuk is
really like. The scenario was written
with the possibilities of producing it
in Keokuk in mind and but few
changes had to be made in the story
as the work of taking the pictures
proceeded.
A great deal of interest has been
taken in the story from the time the
first scenes were taken and the cam
era man and members Of the company
never failed to attract attention when
ever they stopped along the street.
The showing of the film this week
promises to be a most interesting
event in the moving picture history
of Keokuk.

Washington.-Certain parts OF the
New York and New Jersey compensa-
ton laws are to be reviewed by the
United States Supreme Court The
Southern Pacific Steamship Company,
which controls line of boats running
from New York City to Galveston,
asks to be exempt from the New York
law on the ground that it interferes
with interstate commerce, The Federal
District Court recently ordered the COM
pany to pay damages to New York

Company also complains of the applica-
ton OF this law

COURT EXTENDS WOMEN'S LAW

Boston.-Thc State Supreme Court
refuses to define work, whether it be
mental or physical, and rules that the
women's lifty-four-hour-weelt law ap-
plies to both classes. The court held
that the working hours OF women had
been limited ON the ground that they
were under an industrial disability, and
that a reduction of hours was justified
on the ground of public welfare.
This reason applies quite as strongly
where the labor is not purely physical
but is also mental The words 'laborer
and 'laboring' have no hard and fast
meaning said the court.
