!. Did you ever figure that marriage is
a'Iifty fifty" proposition? Did it ever
occur toay you that as We SOW that shall
We reap and that everything in life is
a balance caused by the opposite ef-
feet? tsFifty-FIfty" is q Fine Arts
Triangle photoplay in which the big
dramatic scenes center around one of
the cutest babies ever seen on the
stage. Fifty Fifty. is story Of New
Yorks Bohemia which is today where
the old stables of Washington Square
used To he. Those familiar with New
York will remember when this famous
horse emporium was torn down and its
place given over to sumptuous build
ings, cafes, ETC., where the Bohemia life
of. wonderful New York for the present
holds full sway.
The atmosphere Of these quarters,
free and easy at all times, is respon-
sible for much of the class and scores
of little human hits that make this d
distinctive film. In Fifty Fifty" Miss
Taimadge starts out as a bouyant en-
thusiastic Bohemian in a very human
Characterization of the carefree and
: easy. way Of living. As a mother ac-
cepting the responsibilities Of married
life only to be torn by conflict with
her husband.
The opening scenes are planted in
Washington Square with the glimpse
of a-typical Bohemian party. Then her
marriage without due consideration
followed by year of happiness in
which a child was born. Then enters
the intruder who manages to separate
husband and wife.
The, divorce trial-the superhuman
EFFORTS Of the mother fighting for her
child the remarkable condolences and
brought husband and wife together
again establishes Miss Talmadge as
one OF the very best of our younger
emotional stars: She Is called upon
to present many shades of character
izatfor In one particular scene a
fearful hand to hand encounter is
fought with a companion who, in a
spirit of devilment she enticed into her
boudoir. In another is pictured the
tender love scenes of husband and wife
centering about the beautiful child.
Fifty Fifty" is truly remarkable for
an exceptional display of versatility not
only on the part of Miss Talmadge but
by all OF the supporting caste.
Fifty Fifty will be u pleasant sur
prise. to lovers of drama where excite
ment, tenderness and pathos reign SUI
pfelne.

Miss Hulette in some roles comes q
close second to Mary pickford.
Throughout this picture she is charm
ing and shows her remarkable talent
in her naive manner and sweet SIM
plicity. She is so bright and graceful
that the Shoe Girl has often been
termed Little Mary Sunshine for
while shining shoes with her little
hands, polishes up the gfouchy and
brooding souls with cheerful word
and smile. This picture shows actual
scenes in the juvenile court. Every
scene is telling. full of joy or pathos a
lesson to parents and children.
A kind young judge of the childrens
court by reason of his timely ad-
monitions to the little Shine Girl has
cause to be thankful for the advice
she gave him, in that she turns the
tables on the judge when he was about
to run away with another mans wife.
The Shine Girl is an especially fine
attraction and we are confident that

b. e.. USES DYNAMITE
TO KILL THE SEALS

NEW WESTMINSTER. June G.
1t was announced today from the
Office of the chief inspector of fish
cries that out on the sandheads on
the Fraser river on Thursday an in
itial experiment in the campaign
aimed at the determination of the
hair seal herds was carried out with
complete success.
Under the supervision OF Mr.. j.
McHugh, resident engineer, a mine
was laid under popular resting
place for seal on sandbar half way
between Point Grey and the North
Light. The mine consisted of IA coal
oil cans with 200 pounds of dynamite
and forcite gelatine, and with shrap-
mel. The mine was laid two days be-
fore it was touched off, and when
the seals began to congregate as usu-
al on the bar just as the falling tide
left it exposed, the charge was fired
by an electric battery from a gasoline
launch half mile away.
There was estimated to be any
where from $50 to 200 seals on the
bar and in the water close by. The
explosion lifted the top of the bar $50
feet in the air. the forms of huge
seals being observed in the sand and
water.
As soon as the mine was exploded
the party in the boat started for the
scene. The tide water was running
out strongly and much of the debris
had already disappeared from view,
but everywhere was found fragments
of seal and shrapnel.

JUDGE Lands ORDERS
LEGAL FEES OF $50, 900

Fees of 100000 claimed by attor-
ney Frank II. McCulloch for services
during the eleven years of litigation
involving the receivership of the Chi
cago and Milwaukee Electric Rail-
way Company were ordered by Fed
eral Judge Lands to be paid yester-
day.
MIR. McCulloch most certainly is
entitled to his fees in this case" said
the judge. "for he has seen nine

nary bunch of crooks to contend with.
Paying bills was the rarest accom-
plishment of Albert G. Frost and

years. That outfit kept its agree
ments with about the same degree of

John ID. Rockefeller often referred
proudly to the fact that when he was
making $25 month lie made it n point
to pay all his bills promptly. He also
managed to save little money that
later became the foundation of his
great fortune. When you pay your

you are at. Pay up is becoming ma

inaugurated pay up days and pay up

MORAHT SNEERS AT
THE AMERICAN ARMY

AMSTERDAM. June 6-The army
of the United States is held up to
ridicule by Major Moraht, writing in
the Deutsche Tages Zeitung, who
jeers at the idea that America can
give any effective military aid to the
allies. Major Moraht says:
1.-The American army is no danger
to Germany. The Civil War cost 500
600 lives because neither side had a
trained army. Now Wilson, forgetful
of history, is trying the same thing
but it will be shown once more that
the braggadocio of his countrymen is
in inverse ratio to their fighting val
ue."
Major Moraht concludes with a
sheer at "shoddy American war mat
erial," of which he says the Russians
could tell a tale.
The Vorwaerts says ironically that
it is now considered good form to

The Socialist organ declares that
Brazil, Peru and Chile. processing to
be prepared to fight for humanity and

with which rich German trans Allan
tic communities can be attacked.
