star that when one listens TO the words
Of wisdom which fall from her lips
one maryels; and then the mind re-
verts to the Biblical quotation con-
corning the mouths Of babes and

Miss Fenwick weighs almost ninety
pounds, equipped, and is nearly five
feet tall, but every inch OF that five
feet is crammed with knowledge.
When Miss Fenwick talks every one
stops, looks and listens. not alone be

MISS FENWICK LIKES EN-

Every one has money TO invest in
screen plays. Every one wants to form
company Of his own. Money goes n
begging, whereas in the spoken drama
it is quite difficult 10 find any one
who wants 70 finance play.
As for the work. love IL, but 1t
is work Fancy DOMINIC an evening
gown and doing a ballroom scene at
@ o'clock in the morning and your
only applause is the click Of the
camera; but I love that II is the
Song Of Songs 10 me-
"Oh, but my first picture was awful
When I viewed il in the studio firmly
believed that it would also be my last.
l was afraid that they never would
give me a chance to redeem myself.
My face seemed TO be distorted every
moment. Now I have learned my les
son. All that ! have TO do is TO tell
the story as simply as ] can, with as
few gestures as l can use, and the audi
ence will do the rest. ! have watched
them, and know They love to 'emote'
and will do all Of your acting for you.
Now when I have to do a big scene,
where perhaps my husband is muir
dered and am the accused party, /
try to look pretty and think of cheese
sandwiches Otherwise I will let my
emotions run away with me, and in
stead Of giving the impression Of a
sorrowing, falsely accused widow l
will look like rampant war steed
which is having his first experience
with she'll fire"
If Miss Fenwick had said a rampant
Shetland pony the simile would per
haps have been more fitting.
an the pictures every one is able to
lead such a normal life. The men get
up early and so to work just like reg
ular business men At 9 o'clock. Then
if one is working out Of doors it is all
over by o'clock, and one mas the
evenings TO visit the theatre or read
plays, and by the way, that is my ia
vorite indoor sport these days, reading
plays. ! am looking for a suitable play
for myself. / have promised myself
/ that never, never, II have to wait for
years, will l do anything in the spoken
drama until ! find Just the sort Of
thing | want 10 do. If il were not for
my dearly beloved pictures l should be
forced TO accept some sort OF an en-
gagement on the stage. It would never
do TO remain idle for a season or two,
but now ! can wait, and at the same
time ] also may serve.
"You asked ME if ! did not miss the
plaudits of the audience, and l would
answer Yes If it were not for the let
ters which | receive. The eternal ego,
which Is in all Of US, must be catered
TO, and it is so gratifying to receive
these letters. Never d week but / re-
ceiye at least 200 letters, so for the
first time in my career l have had TO
employ a secretary. Yes. / answer all
OF them, or, rather, she does, Tor they
are filled with good wishes and kindli-
ness, and many Of them are inquiries
from young girls who want to know
how to get a start in the moving piet-
ures. l feel like saying, as one Of the
film actresses did say recently when
she was interviewed on the subject:
The best way TO become a moving pict'
ure actress is to secure an engagement
with a good film company. wish
might add: The rest is easy but
cannot truthfully do So"

pictures seem TO me like great, kind
foster mother who has made It her
duty TO look after all Of us. Where is
there another industry like it? Peo-
pie like Mary Pickford and Charlie
Chaplin have made fortunes in the
pictures. which never have been
equalled in any other industry or at
least only by the great fnanciers. II
is a great thing, a wonderful thing,
and in my humble opinion the half has
not been told. In FIVE years more
believe that we shall see as great i'm
provements as we have seen in the
last few years. and you know how
great that has been.

once more youth, and when that begins

DR.. F. j. Nav met with quite a
serious accident last Wednesday
morning but is well pleased that
the results are not more serious
then they turned out to be. The
doctor was giving his brother n
law Mr.. L. S. Cummings, Of Grand
Rapids, ride in his Ford car, and
was letting the thing out on the
good piece of road north of town
near the George Baxter farm when
the machine got away from him
and went up the embankment,
turning complete somersault.
The doctor is bruised up and some
what lame from his experience.
When he picked himself up he
found his knee pressing his brother
in-law's stomach, and he thought
for moment he had crushed the
breath out Of him, but happily he
came to and neither Of them were
dangerously hurt. The machine,
however, was pretty badly wre cked
and had to be hauled in on skids
to the repair shop.
The doctor said he was going
about 80 miles an hour when the
accident happened and he cannot
ccount for it except that some
thing about the machine broke.
