Pauline Frederick TO Stay
in MOUieS; Signs a Contract

Contrary to current rumor that
she was to accept flattering offers
from legitimate managers to return
to the stage, Pauline Frederick, the
emotional actress who became IA big
screen star over night when she
made her motion picture debut In
the Famous Players adaptation of
Hall Gaines drama, THE Eternal
City" has decided to remain upon
the screen and has signed two
year contract with the Famous Play
ers Film company. BY the terms OF
this contract Miss Frederick becomes
one of the few highest paid screen
stars and automatically assures her
appearance in Paramount pictures
for the next two years.
Remarkable Career.
The sudden rise of Pauline Fred
erick to IL position among the very
foremost emotional actresses on the
screen and the tremendous popu-
larity which she has won by her
charming personality would be as
founding to one who was not ia
miliar with her stage career before
she became photoplayer. Having
been successful in light comedy, Miss
Frederick had progressed to some
of the biggest emotional roles then
being enacted upon the stage and
had proved a positive sensation In
'"Innocent" and as Zuleika in the
celebrated Joseph and His Breth-
rem" Hailed as Incompatible among
the younger generation of emotional
actresses and at the very height of
her popularity on the stage. Miss
Frederick surprised many OF her
friends by accepting the offer ~
the role OF Donna Roma in "The
Eternal City"
hut the success which she scored
in the production more than justified
Miss Fredericks decision and
prompted her acceptance OF an offer
TO remain exclusively upon the
screen.
1t is no eXaggeratlon to say that
her popularity has been steadily in
creasing from that day to this. There
is n very logical reason for Miss
Frederick's success on the screen. In
the first place she is unquestlonably
one of the most beautiful actresses
on stage or screen, her attractive
ness being due TO magnetic power
rather than to mere vapid prettness
"A magnetism that radiates from
the screen and makes her az fas-
cinating in the shadow world az she
was on the stage
In the second place, Miss Fred
erick is u thoroughly trained actress
Always noted as a genius in the DIFF
ficult art Of expression on the stage
she has moulded that gift to meet
the peculiar requirements of the
screen and has attacked that prob

lem with the same keen intellect
with which she mastered the rudi-
ments OF stagecraft.
So IT may truthfully be said that,
though Miss Frcdericks rise TO fame
in the motion picture armament was
meteorlc I'm effect, 1t was in reality
the natural progression OF her de-
velopment as an actress.
Quite Versatile.
A brief review of Miss Frederick 5
scrcan record will serve to show that
though she is chiefly noted as an
emotional actress and as q "heavy,
she has evidenced phenomenal YER
satillty in the roles which she has
played. Following her triumphant
debut in the Hall Caine play Miss
Frederick next appeared in Sold

house provided for only five capital
ships. If it votes to insist on its ori-
