THE ATRE ATTR ACTIONS General News of Local Theatres, Screen Stars

be shown tonight for the last time. Many of the scenes for this comedy drama of the screen were made in famous winter resorts of Florida, at Palm Beach, St. Augustine and Jacksonville, and guests at the fash ionable hotels showed @he great est interest in the production. Many of them acted as "extra peo- pie" in the great ballroom scene, and in. other scenes where ensem- bles are used. MT. Baker found them easy to direct, willing and anxious to obey instructions, and they have added much to the dis tinction of the scenes in "The Duch- ess of Doubt
 Emmy Wehlen as Clover Ames in this feature screen play is mistaken for a Duchess and decides to en- joy the attentions that a real Ouch ess would receive. She has fash iOnable society at her feet. One of her slaves" is a young man who boldly proclaims that he is noth- ing but ribbon-clerk. However, he isn't and that fact forms the foundation for one of the most at tractive screen stories yet produced by Metro.

 "Oh, l guess it will be all right for you to be weighed as you are now" answered Dwyer And I i'm mediatey jumped onto the scales.
 The dial moved around rapidly, then slowly and then came to a stop around 203 pounds. Dwyer was amazed and so were the others.
 By George" exclaimed Dwyer, eff hadn't seen the evidence just now with my own eyes I would not have thought that you weighed anywhere near 200 pounds"
 A few minutes later when I was feeling jubilant over the success of the pulley weight plant, catastro phe nearly occurred. Dwyer and the rest of us were walking along the sidewalk when suddenly l felt some liilHo oHPPlli0 III thC iS6ioh Oi my waist ~line, and moving rapidly to- ward my shoe. It was one of the pulley weights that had come loose. If that weight hit the sidewalk there would be bang. Dwyer would dis cover what had caused it-and my deception would become known.
 The quickest thinking I ever did in my life was in the next two sec onds. Quickly, but not cough to excite Dwyers suspicion, I hopped from the sidewalk to the dirt space near the curb-and not a moment too soon. The pulley weight fell on the soil just about four inches from the sidewalk It made no sound and no one was the wiser It was a mighty narrow escape.
 Probably if that weight had dropped on the sidewalk I might never have had the opportunity to become the heavyweight champion of the world

The unshakable hold which the fascinating sport of clay-bird shoot ing has upon a large percentage of American sportsmen is great source of wonderment to those whose in heritance does not include the love of a gun and the great outdoors.
 Fortunately, this inherent love is lacking in very few, though there are still thousands of game shooters with every qualification and require ment for splendid results in target breaking who never have tested their skill, and consequently are ignordnt of the injustice they have been do- ing themselves, both from stand point of blood-quickening emotion healthful excitement, if you will - and that lasting vigor which only nature guarantees when one woos her with constancy in the open.
 And that annual excursion to the game country, be it upland or marsh. es-how the sportsman looks forward 10 his allotted two or three days, or IS many weeks. if he is that lucky. All summer he has dreamed of it un- til he may close his eyes and picture the coming outing.
 The smell of a bonfire is incense to his nostrils and the old hunting shack way. off on Mud Lake, just to tantalize him, has jumped right into the heart of the city. He sees the mud hens diving and chattering to sees a bunch of mallards way off circling over, some open hole. and is only brought back to earth again when the quick blast of horn warns him to side-step an automobile.

My training camp program was rather strenuous and it didn't take me long to go from 1S5 to 1S0 pounds for my fight with John L. Sullivan. Meanwhile, sporta writers, coming to see me in my workouts. wrote stor. ies declaring that, I was altogether too small to have chance with Sullivan"
 Nothing worried me more than those articles. I feared that if my packers read and were impressed by them they might refuse to put up the rest of the, sl0.00o Side bet And knew if they satroppedg me no one else would take chance on me.
 My fears were confirmed two weeks afterward by a visit from Phil Dwyer and Ned Kearney, two of my packers. They watched me closely during my workout After it was over, Dwyer said to me:
 Jim, you certainly look small"
 But l am deceiving in appearance" l answered.
 And then it happened:
 Jim, what is your exact weight at this time2' flatly asked Dwyer.
 l hesitated to answer for frac- tion of a secondhand then l said;
 "Oh about 200 pounds
 Dwyer looked at Kearney and Rear ney returned the~ glance.
 Two hundred pounds, you say?" exclaimed Dwyer. My gosh, Jim, you don't look it. Where do you weigh yourself?"
 "Oh" l replied, in butcher shop up the street."
 I feared to tell Dwyer and Rear ney that l weighed myself on the gymnasium scales because I felt that they might want me to jump

V S'tol So AJH ilhiNitSj 1Lt-t on and my lack of beef would be discovered.
 I'm afraid those scales are not right" declared DWyer. 'I don't think you weigh anywhere near 200 pounds. You had better come to Long Branch tonight and meet me at the hotel and I'll have you weighed on those scales there"
 After Dwyer and kearney left I hunted up Billy Delaney and said:
 It's all off, Bill Dwyer and Kearney think Pm too light. I told them that l weighed 200 pounds and they want me to prove it tonight by being weighed in their presence"
 Well, let's try to figure out seme way to make those fellows believe you actually weigh 200," replied the optimistic Delaney.
 And before nightfall this is what we did:
 We took all the weights out of the gymnasium pulley exercisers and damned them into the belt which wore during my workouts. We found around the gymnasium several pieces of flat lead and these also were around my waistline. l was padded with iron and lead almost from the line of my stomach to a point below my hips. And so, made up" Bill and l started for Long Branch.
 The last thing in the world that wanted to do was to be weighed stripped. To take off my street clothes meant almost certain discov cry of my trick weight Everything hinged on my being able to weigh without the necessity of taking off my clothes. So when l found Dwer I said:
 Here I am, MT. Dwyer- all ready

New Fame for
 the Law Family.

Miss Ruth Law, the plucky little woman who broke all records for long distance flights in the air on thi sentiment, is a cousin of Wal ter Law of the Fox Film players. MT. Law is very proud of his name sake and relative and glad that she brought fame to the Law fam fly, which was quite unexpected, as few people seem to be aware of the fact that she was an aviator, and certainly not one who would undertake such daring feat as making a journey from Chicago to New York. MT Law is additional ly proud of his relative because she did it in so modest a way. There was no heralding in advance of what she intended doing, but in- stead she simply got on board her machine and did it.
