Ivy City Entertains a
Real Star for a Minute

Florence Iawrence-one of the origi-
nal and best known of the motion pic
ture stars-was a guest OF the city OF
Washington for few days this week,
and she will remember her experience
here quite some time. She came to the
city to make some scenes for her new
est Universal production, the photoplay
adaptation OF the late Jacques Futrelle's
novel, THE Elusive Isabel"
She arrived at the Union Station from
New York at 7;30 in the morning. This
was a bit too early for Miss Lawrence
to arise. At least. so she thought. and
after the porter had awakened her she
simply dropped back into the arms OF
Morpheus for a rev more winks. The
passengers all left the car. a yard engine
was hitched to the rear end. and the
car and Miss Lawrence went sailing
out to Ivy City.
When Miss Lawrence awoke and
found herself in the suburbs. far from
any section of the city she knew. she
was bit upset. She found that there
were several railroad employees that
knew Florence Lawrence. however. and
one OF them had influence enough to
have Miss Lawrence's car, returned to
the Union Station.

All Girls Should Be
Given Lessons in
Weeping, Js Cleo
MadisoH'; Idea
By CLE; MADISON.

Girls should be taught how to
cry, for tears are the most enectlVe
weapon in a woman's armory.
Motion photography Is going TO
do one thing; it lis going to teacn
women to cry prettily. Time was
when an actress who could brins
tears to her eyes at will was
phenomenon. Eleanora Duse was
considered marvellous for being able
10 perform this feat. Nearly all the
others were content to produce an
illusion OF crying, and that does
very we'll for the legitimate stage,
where the actors are so far from the
audience, and preserves their make
up in much better condition. They
cannot, as we can. cut the scene ana
10 on again after repairing the facial
damages to the leading lady which
are the result of a too, too emotional
scene.
But on the screen, where the audi
ence Ia let into so many secrets.
and the actress face becomes
book. in the closeup, which all may
read, a delicate stimulation or crying
is not enough. She's got to weep
real tears--larGe. round ones. ana
she's got to do it without looking
hideous. either.
noes that mean that the great
Duse can be beaten at her own
zare nv anv little girl who do"s
extra bits for the camera? NO,
that Is not exactly the case. 1t Is
a fact that many screen actresses
have learned to produce tears auto
matically, but for those who cannot
there is an unfailing charm. Can

Now, it seems to me, that girls

to induce tears. I mean girls in real
Hfe--not on the stage or in motion
pictures. There isn't any reason In
the world why an ordinary woman
should not cry artistically or appeal
ingly. A women tries TO make ner-
self beautifui at all times. She
knows the value of smile and uses
It. She also knows the value or
tears. but there Ia not one woman
in ten who really gets full value FOR

at the resources placed iat his COM

1T Is quite wonderful how many
things can be done in picture for
the Shakespeare tales that cannot be
done on the. stage" Sir Herbert said.
with all due reverence to the mas

nate and accentuate many details so
as to produce a marvelously truth
telling commentary on the text and
at the same time heighten the dra-
matte values.
That is what I have learned from
my first days work with Director
Emerson upon the scenario. The

NEW YORK, Aug. 15.-The most sensational testimony was given be- fore the white slavery investigators in this city today when Yusebo Twin the king of the Vice Trust gave exceptionally frank testimony.
 He told the probers that many movies in New York city were run expressly for the purpose of trapp- ing girls for the brothels of the city. He himself admitted that his organization had ruined hundreds this way and without any trouble. The girls were admitted free and given candy and this bait was suffi- cient to draw good number with out escorts who were then victimiz- ed. The ushers introduced men to the girls, and these men were near ly always agents for the white slavers.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 15.- The railroad situation is described this morning as in the hands of the President. Wilson after meeting both sides said their discussions were carried on with the utmost franknesS but until today he could not judge of the feasibleness of any projected settlement plan. Lee. the leader of the railroad trainmen, an- nounced that the situation was vastly improved. Mediator Cham bers last night had separate inter- view with President Wilson. He was optimistic.
 Warren B. Stone of the Engineers said 'I am optimistic. The em-
