none other than Lois Weber, in priv

the foremost writer's ard producers

Mrs. Smalley IS a practical ideal
lst. Her ideal is to bring the
screen into closer relation with life
to make true pnotop1aays. Her per

termination of a woman accustomed
to dealing With men and beating them
at their own game. In accounting
for the human touches SO frequent

Immediately given but there he hung,
and it was not until G. Monroe passed
him a line that the combined efforts
of the two set him afloat again. Seven
plates ON the starboard side just abaft

inasmuch as he was taking water fast,
it was thought best to go into dry

A hurry call for the tin can detec-

was started, some believe it was the
reflection of the sun on ice. Scientists
no longer hold this theory, tho they
are divided on the question, but of re-
cent years most of them believe it is
due to visible electrons or some other
electrical phenomenon.
