MOVIES Aid SEARCH
FOR THOMPSON GIRL
Picture viii Be Thrown on Screen
in Many Cities.

81 don't believe Marry could have
been trapped and held prisoner ror
so long a time" declared Mrs. Marie
Thompson, whose 15-year-old daugh-
ter. Miss Marjorie H. Thompson, left
note nearly a month ago telling her
mother, who lives at Is Grant place,
that she intended TO make her own
way in the world and not to bother
to try to find her"
Mrs. Thompson said: Marty was
angry when she left. She wanted to
be a day scholar at the boarding
school instead of a boarder. She said
she couldn't bear to spend the time
from Friday TO Monday morning with
strangers"
The fact which alarms Mrs. Thomp-
son is that her daughter promised to
write, yet has not done so.
The cooperation Of Mai Raymond
w. Pullman in the search has been
enlisted, and yesterday the afternoon
bulletin Of the police department car
ried photo OF the girl under the
caption of Missing" beneath which
appears a detailed description,
At the suggestion OF Mai. Pullman
Mrs. Thompson is also having a pic
ture OF her daughter flashed on the
screen Of motion picture theaters in
Baltimore. Atlantic City, Los Angeles,
Philadelphia and New York.
When her daughter left home, Mrs.
Thompson says, she had SIS and some
iewelry.

The War Capital as You
Would See 1t Yourself.
By DAVID VI. CHURCH,
l. n. s. stan Correspondent.

Washington is stealing Broadways
thunder. Time was when your coun-
try cousin went to New York and
strolled up and down Broadway when
he wanted to see the nations celebri-
ties. Now he has come TO Washing
ton.
Strolling through the corridors Of
Washington's hotels in the course Of
day, one wonders IL there are any
celebrities left in New York. The
hero worshippers must have TO con-
fine their worshipping to the movie
stars and chorus girls. because all OF
the literary and AIT high lights seem
to be in Washington.
Among the popular fiction artists
who are here are Mary Roberts
Rhinehart. Wallace Irwin, who writes
war stories; Ernest Poole, who has
but recently finished His Family" a
popular novel, and Arthur Bullard-
Newspaper men OF note have taken
up their permanent headquarters in
the National Capital. The fourth es-
tate is represented here by the cream
of the nations journalists. and lunch
time at the Press Club appears like a
congress OF famous journalists.
Famous artists. ranging from Tad, ."
who draws comics for the delight Of
newspaper readers throughout the

country, 10 Henry Reuterdahl. whose
marine paintings are welcomed IN any
salon, roam the streets OF Washing
ton.
The paragraphers have had their
fling at fun In the senate and De-
partments. Don Marquis has brought
his ''archie'' here. while r. p. A."
has worried the mailmen with his
great number Of contributions which
go to make up The Coming Tower"
The sporting, men are not altogether
mission. John X. Tener. president OF
the National League, has come here,
and scores Of other men in the spot
light OF sport come and 20. most Of
them con '-4c here TO Join the aviation
corps. which is regarded as the sport
ing war game.
Actors and actresses come and 60.
Frank Tinney drops in st the White
House and tells Secretary Tumulty a
few funny stories. Mary Fuller. OF
movie fame, comes around and says
''Howdy' to old friends. Others are
here often.
All Of these are the foreign celebri-
ties" There are. OF course. Washing
tons own celebrities. II Is a busy day
for the hero worshipper" who comes
10 town these days, and there are lots
Of sprained and strained necks when
the passengers board the trains at the
Union station.
The Washington herald., 1917-08-25

New York, Aug. 24.-Bradstreet' s
tomorrow will say:
Cautious buying, government price
fixing, expert embargoes, more or less
economizing on the part Of the public,
high prices, labor unrest, and shifting
of demand from ordinary to war lines
do not admit of regular business hav-
ing a keen edge. But, despite this or
that unsettling element, the broad
swing is toward progress, and trade
news certainly is more favorable than
otherwise, while crop reports keep
getting better and industrial activity
is as marked as ever, with collections
ranging from fair to good.
Numerous markets have witnessed
the presence of large numbers of Wis
iting buyers, whose purchases of sta
pie articles have rendered house trade
more active, especially at centers that
cater TO the crop-growing regions,
and in this respect the West over
shadows the East.
Incidentally, the consensus OF opin-
ion is that for the coming fall trade
will be OF large proportions, and at
the same time orders for goods that
are essential to the holidays are COM
ing out.
Scarcity Of raw materials, either
because of inability Of the railroads
to make prompt shipments or because
of an actual dearth of supplies, still
is a source of widespread complaint,
and while some buyers feel that 1t is
well to play for time in order to see
how the price situation will work out,
il is a foregone conclusion that there
are no surplus stocks Of anything in
existence.
