MAE MARSH AS "GOoDY TWO
Shoes AT THE OREGON
In New Triangle Play She Not Only
Follows Fathers Footsteps, But
Wears His Boots.

It is little vanity of Mae Marsh
the Triangle star, that whenever she
creates a new part in picture she in
sists upon contributing some telling
point of characterization of her very
own.
In "The Marriage of Molly-O," her
newest picture, in which she is fea-
tured with Robert Harron, this little
point was Just an unpromising pair of
shoes. The director was not altogether
satisfied to let her put these shoes into
the story until she explained what she
intended TO do with them.
"Well, then, III tell you,' said Miss
Marsh with some asperity. i" IN sup

died. ! IN not supposed to have ever
known what it was to have even crea-

luxury for everyday use is going to

"The head of the household has a
pair of shoes. When he dies, they are
not going to let them go to waste.
Naturally, the daughter of the house
gets them, because the mother is be-
yong the stage of primping up, and it
is part of the daughters duty to try to
get q man.
"But the shoes will re too big" pro-
tested the director looking down at
her little feet.
"That's oil the better" cried Miss
Marsh enthusiastically. "The ridicu-
lousness of it would never apepal to
persons living as poor Molly-O does.
A pair of shoes are too precious in
their eyes for anything but admira
tion. -
"M-m-m-' mused the director.
"Don t you think so9" inquired Miss
Marsh naively.
He thought moment longer, and
then said, "Well, go ahead"
But when Miss Marsh made her APP

clumsy, pathetic old shoes he gave an
exclamation of pleasure and clapped
his hands

On every hand in Rio de Janiere you
find clubs-the Jockey club, the Derby

hand in Rio you also find diamonds
and in every feminine ear as well.
Great blazing stones that take your
breath away and your cash too if you
attempt to acquire any.
"Kind hearts are more than coro-
nets" would never be popular motto

sired than shoes. Positively il s a poor
ear indeed whose lobe doesn t sag with
the weight of huge ruby, emerald or
sapphire surrounded by diamonds. Even
the poorest natives and negresses,
shambling along barefooted or clumping
along in the ungainly native shoes
heavy wooden soles leave the heel ex-
posed and have thick piece of leather
across the front for toe hold, have
their ears all duded up in gold hoops.
When it comes to rings no finger
is spurned, sighted or overlooked. If
some poor little feminine finger does
happen to be shy its circling band of
jewels it looks almost indecently nude.
The men also affect several rings and
an elaborately jewelled one on the first
finger of the right hand is the finger
mark of a lawyer, doctor or scholar.

some hundreds of thousands of German
women and children. He continues: TO

Germany Tries to Recruit
Professors From Holland

The Hague, Netherlands, August rs.
Having failed to recruit the staff of the
proposed Flemish university at Client
among native professors, Germany is
making every effort to persuade young
Dutch professors to take posts in the
new institution. The most tempting
offers are being made. Prospects are
held out of salaries far above those
paid by the Belgian government before
the war, while it is represented to the
desired candidates that if the Belgian
government should return and GUST
them from their posts their future will
be assured by the German government.
While Flemings ardently desire uni
versity of their own, the great majority
of them decline to accept the gift at
the hands of the usurpers of their coun-
try, suspecting the motives that
prompt it.
