LITTLE MARY TO
WORK FOR NO SALARY
But Expects to Get a Big In
crease of Revenue Over
Last Year


Mary Pickford, most famous of all the
motion picture stars now appearing on
the screen, has set all rumors regarding
her at rest by signing a contract with
the Famous Players Film Company to
appear in Paramount pictures for another
year.
Most interesting is the statement that
she will receive no salary for her work.
However, her agreement with Adolph
zrkor, president of the Famous Players,
calls for so per cent. of the returns on
all her pictures. Inasmuch as II was
stated last year that Miss Pickford was
getting a salary of $1,000 a week, or 100000
a year, one can imagine the tremendous
returns on the Pickford subjects. A
rough estimate by a person well known
in the film circle Is that Americas
Sweetheart will get not less than S2JO,00O
for her years work.
During the last year the Paramount
Pictures Corporation has released one
Pickford subject each month, or II for the
year Thousands of theatres in the United
States are showing the Plckford sub
jects.
For the purpose of declaring a divl-
dend for the little actress q new COM
pany has been formed. called the Mary
Pickford- Famous Players Company. Miss
Pickford will hold so per cent of the
stock and Adolph Zukor the other so per
cent. w. Il. Smith, president of the
Famous Players Exchange of Philadel-
phia, which is the local representative for
Paramount, promises the public some
exceptional Pickford releases.

"a Fool, at the Walnut Again

1t takes no very expert cast to get the
best out of Porter Emerson Brownies s
melodrama, "a Fool There Was" which
returned to the Walnut once more last
night. And so the competent players now
assembled can get hardly their due. But
they can be satisfied at least with the
knowledge that the public. which likes
Mr.. Brownies play about the vampire, will
go on liking 1t almost as many seasons
as Benz -Hur'' endured.
1t appeals very directly to a certain type
of playgoer who likes his drama "hot T.
the mouth" and who doesn't question
some of the things Mr.. Browne observes
or take them too seriously either. The
ruin of the prosperous man by his light
o. love" and her maddening pursuit OF
him are things that no audience outside
the very sophisticated are going TO eavil
at. It's just plain enjoyment for a good
many seasons audiences.

sed to Congress in December, 1914.
These Democrats were prompt in
replying, with a speech in Washing
ton, to every speech that the Presi-
dent made while on his western tour
These men still declare that the folks
"Back home" are standing with them
and not with the president, these men
are still maintaining a position which
will make it impossible for the Presi-
dents programme to be passed by
Democratic votes and which will re-
suit in throwing the responsibility and
credit for whatever preparedness leg
slation is passed upon the Republi-
cans.
Unless these men can be shifted
from their present attitude Mr.. Will
sons tour will prove failure, regard
less of the personal pleasure which he
derived from it. More than that, it
will initiate fatally against the Presi-
dents campaign for reelection. Mr..
Wilson has elected to push the ques-
ton of national defense to the front
and to stake his reputation as a party
leader upon it. He has completely
reversed himself within a few months
and the question which he dismissed
with sneer only a short time ago
he now embraces with all the enthus-
iasm Of a new convert. His language
grew steadily stronger as his speech
progressed, and he now
stands in words at least, on ground
as advanced as that of the most pro-
nounced militarist in the country.
But his party has not moved for
ward with him-and the question now
is whether he can move his fellow
Democrats. 1t is regarded here as
certainty that mere speeches made
at distance from Washington will
not avail for the purpose. It is pro-
blematic whether Mr.. Wilson can ac-
complish his purpose by any other
means.

port reads:
There is one Canadian field hospit-
al for horses in France, composed of
387 men and six officers. It has a ca
pacity of 1000 cases, and the work
done there is really remarkable. OF
6O7 horses sent in on one occasion, on
ly twelve died. Five hundred, and
ninety-five eventually became fit for
reuse.
"The men are up around the lines
all the time, gathering in wounded
horses, and their horsemanship is re-
markable. Wounded horses are i'm
mediately given first aid.
"A horses wounds heal more rapid
ly than mans. Cases of horses with
ten bullets in them have been known
to show complete recovery within a
very few weeks. In fact, some wound

"WILSON EFFORT INEFFECTIVE

Washington, Feb. 16.-Newspaper-
men who accompanied the president
on his western speechmaking tour re-
port that he returned to Washington
very much pleased with himself; that
he feels himself better acquainted
with the people and that the people
now know him better; and that he dis
played a much more "human" element
on the return trip than he did while
going out.
There is nothing unusual about this.
Every spellbinder has experienced it.
There is no intoxication like that

office who have measured their vote,

quently been described as man who
could get more cheers and fewer votes
than any candidate who ever went be-
fore the people. This last statement
is not quite true-for Mr. Bryan has
always received more votes than Mr..
Wilson got in 1912.
The success of the Presidents
speeches is not to be measured, how
ever, by their effect on the audiences
who heard them--nor yet by their eff
feet on the people who will read them
in the book form in which Congress
has voted them put out. The trip
was made with one purpose chiefly in
mlnd-to create situation in the
public mind which would react upon
the rebellious Democrats in Congress
who are refusing to follow the Presi-
dent in his programme for prepared
ness. While it is, to be sure, a little
early to determine just what the
force of such reaction is it vet re-
mains there are no signs at all of a
weakening on the part of the recalci-
trant Democrats who still believe that
the Wilson of year ago is the real
Wilson, and who still hold to the
theory that our military policy should
not be changed because a few people
are nervous and excited-these being
the words which Mr.. Wilson address
