flying splinters. AS soon as the order

of about four hundred men who had
stormed the Mole less than a score

Seena owen IS coming back. You
must remember Seena when she
used to be Signe Auen and then
later when she was spoken of as
Mrs. George Walsh Almost every
body who really boasts of being a
film fan remembers Seena in CON
nection with some of the earlier
companies.
She started her screen career in
1914 with Kalem after a stage ca
reer OF six weeks in stock in San
Francisco. Subsequently she played
with Majestic, Fine Arts,
and her latest connection was with
the Fox studios.
Now after a long absence from
the silversheet Seena's radiance
will soon again brighten the screen
for her admirers The very incest
thing about her return to the Gin
ema is the fact that she is to be
leading woman for the popular
rural hero, Charles Ray, in 4 forth
coming Paramount picture.

Women prominent in trade union
circles are taking an active part in
the promotion OF the governments
war program. They are making
every effort TO throw the weight at
their organizations most effectively
into war work. Many women are
assisting the department OF labor ia
salaried positions or as volunteers.
I'VE are encouraging trade union
women to develop their abilities To
speed up war production" SAYS
Miss Melinda Scott. a member OF
the American Federation OF Labor
mission to England and France.
If women are not getting proper
recognition OF their efforts toward
winning the war, it is not because
they are not doing their share.
There is q distinct place for
women trade union leaders, for
they can approach their own sex
and understand the problems con-
fronting women in industry. More
over, their appeal TO women NAV
have more weight than would the
same appeal from man"
Miss Scott is a member OF the ad-
visory committee of the council OF

man Of the New Jersey committee

that war production can best be
speeded up by throwing the proper
safeguards about women workers,
and is strongly in favor of an eight

oyertax their strength.
