STREET CROWDS IN MOVIES.
Strategy Used to Keep People From
Spelling the Effect.

Street crowds are notoriously diff
cult to handle for the movies. They
will never 90 what you want, and even
~hen you are sneaking them there Is
always some smart Aleck in the fore
ground who insists upon looking into
the camera and cracking his foolish
face
On one occasion Donlon wished to
get close Up pirture of a crowd look
ing skyward. 1t was to be used as a
cut-in for all aeroplane story. To hire
a lot Of extras Nigh; have cost cou-
ple Of thousand dollars. SO he too& a
chance of getting what he wanted WITH
out paying Tor it. Knowing the pSy-
chology Of crowds. Donlon took three
cameras downtown, where he set one
on the sidewalk for she purpose Of TAX
ing a closeup profile of the crowd he
was to assemble. one in a second story
window, shooting straight into the peo-
ple's faces. and one on top of the build
ing, also shooting down.
When all was ready Donlon stood In
the middle of the street with a mega
one Ben, who stood on top Of the build
ing. The crowd assembled immediate
ly and seeing the cameras, began, as
usual, to rubber right into them. Then
Donlon called out:
rs Ben ready to jump"
And Ben called back: lust min
ute. Ed. I'm a bit nervous. Wait till
that yellow car gets by. l think I'll
try for the top Of that big Pasadena
car. It's wider"
Back and forth they called excited
warnings and directions, and the
crowd was right OH tiptoes. They
didn't know what was going to happen,
but it Promised excitement. All this
time the camera mer clicked that TOOL
crowd into celluloid immOrtality.-Roo

HEADS OF FAMILIES
EXEMPT FROM DRAFT
Hsfs Approves Rule TO Except
-es1li Men With Dependents.

Washington, Aug. 25.-President
Wilson today set his seal of approval
on agitation demanding the creation
OF the first draft army without i'm
pressing heads of families.
In letters to Secretary of War
Baker and Senator Weeks he pointer
out that men with wives dependent
on them, as well as men with wives
and families, should be exempted
from service. The state of marriage
in itself he said should not consti-
tute ground for exemption. Draft
boards should rule on the fact of
dependency.
His letter TO Senator Weeks, in re
ply to the Senator's request for a
ruling. said that he was asking Sec
retary Baker to go into the situation
and make sure that draft boards do
not take men with dependents.

VANITY AND sPECTACLEs

One of the popular objections to
wearing glasses is that wearing glasses
makes one look old. This was true in
the days when they were worn only
to help poor sight. and chiefly by the
elderly. Now, very large percentage
of wearers of spectacles are children.
and the wearing of spectacles is no
longer a mark of advanced age. 1t is
not a sufficient excuse for lady to
say that glasses would make her look
old. Moreover, wearing glasses is one
of the best preservers of youthful
appearance. This is because prolonged
oye-strain causes wrinkles to appear
prematurely and gives the eounte-
nance a strained, anxious, tired,
drawn, cross look, which is very char
acteristic and is far more to be avoid
ed. from the point of view of appear
ance, than the slight disagreement of
glasses. Indeed. so far from being
unbecoming. there are some types of
face to which glasses just add the fin
ishing touch.-Charles Phelps Cushh-
ing, in the Worlds Work.

Alkali Makes Soap
Bad For Washing Hair

Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much allIali, which is very
Injurious, as it dries the scalp and
makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is just plain
mulsified cocoanut oil, for this is pure
and entirely greaseless It's very
cheap, and beats the most expensive
soaps or anything else all to pieces.
You can get this at any drug store, and
a few ounces will last the whole fam
lily for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub 1t in, about teaspoonful is all
that is required. 1t makes an abund-
ance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses
thoroughly, and rinses out easily. The

and easy to handle. Besides. II loosens

No one of us ever stood Cor fell)

or course, when you were q little
kiddie you built card houses-perhaps
you are still doing it. At all events,
you must remember how carefully you
placed the two plane surfaces so they
should support each other and stand
in delicate adjustment. Then there
came still more careful arrangement
as your card house grew; each little
leafiet had to be added with infinite
care lest you topple the whole surface
over.
In the interdependence of card on

of the interdependence of human be-

The happiest man is the one who

Not only do we depend on people
to bring us food and make our cloth es

How can any of us feel independent

1t is not entirely weak to be glad
