It was a WALL"
So said Pauline Frederick,
stage vampire and screen star,
whose rise to fame in the role OF
Potiphar's wife in Joseph and
His Brethren" back In 1913, when
she instituted a suit for divorce
from her husband, Frank M. An
drews, Millionaire architect, the
same year.
But apparently the years have
brought Miss Frederick renewed
belief in her former ideal, for
friends have just learned of her
recent marriage to Willard Mack,
actor and playwright, in WASH
ington. where they had gone to
attend the opening of Mr.. Mack's
latest play, Tiger Rose
"Worst of HoOdOOs."
For many years Miss Frederick,
hailed by Harrison Fisher as the
embodiment of intellectual beau
ty and physical perfection" has
gained almost as much publicity
thru her many love affairs as
thru her wonderful beauty and
marvellous portrayal of the vam-
pire type on the American stage.

In this story were portrayed the
tragedies which had come to the

Then there was Wilbur e

friendship with Miss Frederick's
uncle in Boston, undertook to

His wife resented her husbands
interest in the beautiful stage ia
vorite and got a divorce, after
which the theatrical world knew
Mr.. Bates no more.
Then, too, there was e. R.
Thomas, a gay young millionaire,
who undertook to finance Miss
Frederick's second season in "The
Little Gray Lady" only to cast
himself into turmoil Of domestic
trouble. He lost his fortune, and
later was crippled for life in a
motor accident, after which his
wife got q. divorce.
And last was Frank M. An

was a failure after their separa-

Some Interesting
Facts About Whales

Scientists say the whale de-
scended from some mammal
which lived ON land I'm previous
ages, forced by change in en-
vironment to choose a life In
the sea.
The whale breathes air and
can hold its breath for 40 min
utes.
The remote ancestors of the
whale were the pig and horse,
according to scientists.
The sperm, right, blue, hump
back, sulphur-bottOms bottle
nose and finback are the names
of different whale species. The
finback and humpback are val
ued for food meat.
Sperm whales produce am
bergris, greasy substance
sometimes found floating on
surface Of water or along
beaches. 1t is worth more than
its weight in gold. 1t Is used
to make perfumes because Of
its property of refining OdOrs.
1t Is q product Of the sperm
whales digestive organs.
An average of % barrels Of
oil is produced from one whale.
Soap, candles and machine oil
are made from this product.
The immense gill bones are
used to make brushes and cor
set stays.
Whales weigh from so to rs
tons each.
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1917-10-08

starboard, the huge sea beast rides
easily, waves breaking over its
sleek back like water running
from the curved sides of a sub
marine.
The captain-gunner squints his
eye down the sights and pulls the
trigger. The swivel gun clears It's
throat with roar.
A flash Of iron rod and hempen
cable shoots over the water. A
square shot, and the whale is hit
amidships.
The fight is on.
The bomb in the point Of the
harpoon explodes, tearing a jagged
wound in the whales vitals. The
shot releases four iron prongs that
fasten in quivering flesh.
The maddened whale rears out
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1917-10-08

of the sea and falls back again
with a crashing splash that sends
geysers spouting skyward. Then
1t dives or plunges ahead, strug-
Cling vainly to free itself from the
stabbing shaft In it's back.
Fathom after fathom of rope
screeches from the winches as the
play" with the Infatuated mon
ster continues. Woe betide the
man whose leg or arm is caught
by the whizzing line. 1t means
the loss of limb and often life.
IL the whale is not struck in a
vital spot, the crew must struggles
with SO tons of lunging flesh.
Often the whale tows the boat like
a chip for hours before the fight
is over, or dives under the ship,
the line.

PACIFIC COAST WHALING
STATION, BAY CITY, Wash, Oct.
8.-Going a-gunning for whales is
sport for vikings.
And men of The viking strain
follow it as a business here.
This station is So miles from
Tacoma, Is one of five started by
the Americana Pacific Co., when
the new industry of "shOre whal-
ing" was established along the
Northwest Pacific coast six years
ago.
During that time hardy rovers
from off the waters of the seven
seas have gathered here to pit
their ocean craft and skill at har-
pooning against the elephantine
strength of these monster water
mammals.
Staggering he-men in oilskins
and hip boots, fearing nothing
that swims or walks, these old
time whalemen have brought q
picture of the far Arctic down to
the states for civilization to see.
They are the cowboys of the
sea, and the sight of them would
satisfy the most eager tenderfoot.
Whaling Business Changes.
This close-in whale hunting Ia q
new game for them-not as dam
gerous by far as the way 1t used
to go. But the war has made the
game profitable and the whale
men are content with little less
of danger.
Bay City and its cousin village,
Westport, on a point farther to
sea, are little clusters OF houses
fighting a lonely battle with shift
ing sands and cutting transforms
that sweep the bleak beach wild
erness along the entrance of Grays
harbor.
From these places whalemen go
out in search of their quarry
floating islands of blubbers, oil,
meat and bone.
As a business, whaling is chang
ing from the tragtc, wasteful ad-
venture of the old days, when men
and car6asses were discarded with
piratical unconcern, into an eff
Gent labor that oonserves all parts
of the massive catch.
No Ping-P Pong Game.
The whaling game, as 1t is play
ed now, is not so fiendishly cruel
as 1t used to be, but at that, 1t Is
no ping-pong contest.
Some of the old-time romance
has been eliminated by modern
methods, but the struggle with
storms and battles with wounded
mammoths are still portion Of
the whaleman's routine.
Men of the shore whaling"
fleet here do not approach their
quarry in small boats, set down
from whaler, risking lives in a
venture with flashing tails and
crashing, steam-hammer jaws.
That was the old way when
whalemen left New Bedford town
and other ports on the New Eng
land coast for long voyages on
strange seas.
Fire Harpoon From Gun.
: Nowadays an explosive harpoon,
shot from swivel gun on the bow
of staunch 100-ton vessel, carries
the white mans message to Mr..
Whale.
Quick action follows on board
when the lookout, perched In his
basket atop the. mast, bellows his
call: Z
There she hlows!"
Off in the distance the black
bulk of whale Is seen, the white
vapor of its blow" spouting above
the water line. Or maybe q whole
school of the mammals is sporting
at morning exercise.
II the whalemen are lucky, they
approach within firing distance
without disturbing the hunted. II
the whale is alarmed 1t dives and
the hunters follow till It comes up
again.
An Exciting Battle.

Afraid of Role.


Afraid of Role.

part of Zuleika l was fearfully
afraid of it. felt couldn't play
Zuleika and keep my sanity-that

evil thing, noisome as bat, un-
clean as a viper, loathsome as a

ence, sacrilege. Only the beauty
of the settings Of the scene and
that aureate poetry of Mr.. Par
ker's lines availed me to complete
the task"
This antipathy she was able to
overcome, however, with the aid
of a more idealized Interpretation
of the character of the woman
whom she portrayed, and an en-
larged pay envelope.
Whether Miss Frederick will
continue to act for the screen has
not been announced.

Catch 200 During Season.
The monster was not hit


As the whale weakens, the line
is drawn slowly in until the battle
is over. The dead victim, IL the
boat is far off shore. is pumped
full of hot air and fastened tail up
to the side of the vessel.
The search continues until a sat
isfactory catch is made.
That's the way men hunt whales
these days.
This was slack season along
the Northwest Pacific coast. Only
200 whales were brought into the
Bay City station.
More than 500 was the total
catch for five stations from here
north up along Vancouver and

the turning over Of S.2o.000.O00 to Ita:y

and the disratch!ng Of shipping ard war

for a declaration OF war against this
country.
They know that this American action
