What won't Little Mary do next? In

yachting, rides in an aeroplane and
numerous other stunts, but after all,
she says there's no place like home.
Geraldine Farrar had a cold and
cancelled her engagement at the Met
ropolitan Opera House, New York,
last week This never stopped her
work before the camera. She was
both physically i'll and love sick while
the great Carmen" picture was being
produced. ~.
Eugene Forde-Hagar of THE Dia-
mend from the Sky serial, will soon
be seen again. The intricacies of the
plot demanded that Miss Forde be
rendered mentally irresponsible Tin
the picture) and the hard-heartef au-
thor has only recently permitted her
to recover. That Miss Forbes work
in the earlier chapters of this great
photoplay has endeared her to the
vast audiences throughout the country
is evidenced by the hundreds OF in
quiries being made as to when she
will return in the story.
Despite the intimations and reports
to the contrary, Marie Doro is still
a Famous Players star. Only a short
while past, Miss Doro became the wife
of Elliott Dexter, who played opposite
Mary Pickford in Little Pal" and
they have now taK.n UP their future
residence in New York City. Miss

radiant beauty combined with unusual
cleverness, won. her instant recogni-
stion as bone of the screens greatest

White Pearl" a five-act drama, and

Marguerite Clark narrowly escaped
death several times last week In her
efforts to be more realistic. Tower
ing snow-capped peaks and deep sunk
en- valleys in the midst OF the Swiss
Alps, has been the abode of little
Marguerite for some past, experience
ing some of the most unusual happen
ings of her career. Dangling at the
end of a rope with nothing but misty
atmosphere between her and the. base
of a chasm 5000 feet below; snow
bound in cabin with none but beast
of man as a companion; swept away
pell nell by an avalanche, home be-
Lodgings and all; half starved, bewild-
cred and on the verge of nervous
collapse-such were some of this dain-
ty young lady's experiences. 1t all
happened, however, IN the course of
her work upon the wonderful produc-
ton "Out of the Drifts" in which she
plays the part Of Elise, little Swiss
shepherdess. It Is startling tale and
one in which Miss Clark has an oppor-
tunity of doing a different sort Of
acting in her inimitable manner than
she has ever had before.
Educational pictures are difficult to
obtain in quantities. 1t has been i'm
possible in the history of motion pic
ture theaters to establish a regular
patronage for those desiring pictures
of purely educational nature. The
Paramount Corporation are now send
ing out films of travel the world over,
so the public may learn what is go
ing on in even the most remote parts
of the world. Through the courtesy
of the press the Liberty theater offer.
ed the use of their building yester.
day free of charge to school children,
to introduce these Paramount travel
pictures and the remarkable interest
taken in them was astounding.
So successful was this demonstra-
ton of approval that the management
of the Liberty is going to repeat it
next Friday with an entirely new set
of films, showing the native life and
habits through South America.
All that is required is to clip the
coupon from the Star-Bulletin next
Thursday, take it to school and with
the teachers signature, each coupon
will entitle the pupil to admission
free. The public schools should all
recommend these exhibitions, as it
was with considerable difficulty that
these rare films have been secured
| for Honolulu. \. .=:.. :. :. .=..
Later on, if sufficient interest is
taken in the Friday educational matt
nees, a charge of not over ten cents
viii probably be made to cover the
expenses. III" ."..::.. FL. >=..<.-.
