beauty, will be a.tounded to find her a
thorough Oriental. 1t is not matter
of makeup alone, but of real histrionic
ability. From the delightful little oc-
cidental girl who has flirted, smiled
and wept her way through many ad-
ventures and romances, they found
that Miss Pickford had become an
enhancing powerfully emotional Jap
anese girl, whose portrayal of the suf-
ferings, grief and anguish of the de-
serted wife, though enacted with the
utmost dignity and force, is at the
same time far above anything that she
has ever attempted in sympathetic
treatment
Cho-Cho-San, renowned in opera,
play and novel as one of fiction's great
est examples of feminine fidelity, is
one of the best-known and bestowed
characters on the stage 1t is there
fore fitting that Miss Pickford, as the
idol of the motion picture public,
should be chosen to give the screen
its first and only impression of the
beloved little Nipponese.

At the Majestic Today.

SHOULD a Mother Tell?" is the at
traction at the Majestic theatre today.
Perhaps never before had a woman
been called upon to face a problem
of such vital Importance to herself
and her dear ones as presented itself
to Marie Baudin.
Faced with the tragic responsibility
of choosing between her daughters
happiness and the life of an innocent
man, there comes into the play the
world old, primitive instinct of the
mother to protect her child. Her first
wild impulse is to sacrifice all for
her own. Later comes a reaction
Can she stand by and permit the
blood of an innocent man to be shed?
z So the cruel struggle RACES within
the mothers breast. Now her in
stinctive mother-passion is upper
most Now her sense of right and
justice. 1t is a big question. Miss
Nansen. in should a Mother Tell?"
has one solution for it. You may or
may not agree with it, but you GER
tainly want to see it. 1t is shown
at the Majestic theatre today.

For the first time in his film career
Herbert Rawlinson, leading man of
the Worthington company, is playing
an altogether different role-a crook.
The part is that of "Slim Donegan''
in The Scales of Justice" an un-
derworld story in three reels by
James Dayton
Rawlinson, it will be remembered,
was featured in the serial, "The
Black Box" in which he played the
role of Sanford Quest, the criminolo-
gist. "Now it is case of turn.
about" said Rawlinson, "instead of
hunting the criminals, have a role
in which, as a crook, | am hunted
rather like playing this part for
change. ! am having no difficulty
with it as, during the long siege with
the Sanford Quest role, | gave con.
siderable study to the characters of
the underworld and the knowledge
that | gained at that time is helping
me considerably with the role of Slim
Gonegan."

There has been a lot of talk about the
increased price of materials and its effect
upon the motor industry. Every one
knows that prices Of many articles have
gone up, among them aluminium, iron,
steel, zinc, etc. There has been a short
age of aluminium and zinc, while the pro
duction of iron and steel has been dou-
bled to meet demands.
But it has not been possible to get the
materials as rapidly as before. One rea-
son for this is that ferIght cars are tied
up everywhere with a lot of things or
them, and they are needed to transport
the products of the mills. Also many cars
are used for munitions.
So even when the motor companies have
ordered materials in advance there has
been a delay in delivering. However, a
lot Of the companies had a big quantity
of material on hand before there was any
feeling of shortage, so they have been
able to go along with their production
as planned.
The question that faces many of the
makers today is what they are going to
do about the 1917 production. It is a
difficult problem. The 1916 season will
end in the summer and the next season s
plans must be made some months ahead,
in fact from now on.
II the war should end suddenly there
would be a CUrtailing of contracts. Some
people say that the contracts would go
along for months. Others claim that
with the foreign governments overbur-
dened with debts they would order whole
sale cancellations, and that would end
many contracts.
Naturally there should be a chance
then to get better prices for materials
Yet IL makers ordered things now, and
paid the high price. either they would
have to raise the price of their cars for
1917 or suffer a loss
Here is an illustration as told by one
of the big men in the industry. His
company had a contract for certain ma
tCrials at a figure made before the short
age and higher prices. One day an Of
fetal of the product being sold to the
motor maker calledT to see the automo-
bile manufacturer
He told the latter that he realized his
company had contracts for materials at
a certain price. The contracts could be
filled, but not at very good profit.
Therefore, they would not be filled. The
automobile man started to sputter about
holding the other concern to its contra ct
or a suit would be started.
Go ahead and sue,' said the other
fellow. TT will take a couple of years to
thresh your case out Meanwhile your
unfinished cars will be in your factory.
Your dealers will have to return their
deposits and take on other lines. Who
will want yonr 1916 models year from
next. Christmas?"
The automobile manufacturer saw the
light. He ordered the old contracts torn
up and he signed new ones for material
at the Increased price. And he was as
sured that he would get it regularly.
