ELECTRICIAN LOSES LIFE
WHERE PEARL WHITE DARED

Positive proof of the real danger
which Pearl White, "Pathe's peerless
GIRL" underwent when she painted the
wall sign on the top of the Gerard

was furnished by the fatal fall of an
electrician from the same building on

use of the electric sign as a ladder,
just as Miss White did, and losing
his footing, fell twenty stories to the
