On The Screen
WASHINGTON.

Grace MacGowan Cooke, one of the
most noted woman writer's in America,
has just sold the picture rights to her
famous novel, The Power and the
Glory" at the Washington Wednesday
and Thur sday, to World Pictures.
More than ordinary interest attaches
to the purchase of the screen rights
to this novel by World Pictures be-
cause OF the fact that it was the inten-
ton Of the late Henry B. Harris to
produce a play made from the novel
with Elsie Ferguson as the star. Mr..
Harris untimely death on the Titanic
prevented this.
THE Power and the Glory" is one
OF the best selling novels published in
recent years, and was written by Miss
Cooke after the publication of many
other strikingly successful novels from
her pen. Miss Cooke was born at
Grand Rapids, Ohio. She early
showed bent for literary work, and
was the first president of the Wom-
ans Press Club, Of Tennessee Her
first novel was Mistress JOY" pub
lished in 1903, and others are IRE
turn" "Hulda," "A Gourd Fiddle"
THE Grapple," "The Doings of the
Delivers" and others
Miss Cooke is also a prominent
contributor to all the leading maya
zines. Her home is at Carmelby-the-
Sea, California

learned that 1t Is much easier to keep

feel that this suggestion will be
well worth giving a prominent place.

I'll stack my huskies against the cream of the famous Scottish yard on the Clyde.
 What is the secret of the success of my gang? Well, it's as simple as the nose on your face. The first thing l do is to put my huskies next to the big idea in the shipbuilding game. hammer it into their heads that every rivet they drive is equal to a stout nail into the coffin of that arch child murderer, the Kaiser. In other words 1 make their part in this war game so real that they pound rivets like the boys over there pump machine guns.
 "To hit the bulls eye in a riveting drive, you've got to to prepare for it like the Tanks arrange for a drive against the Huns. When General Pershing gets it into his head that he wants to give the Hun good hard bump he takes few thousand Tank huskies back of the line,( and puts them through a stiff course of sprouts in the way of intensive training. When the boys have completed the course they are as hard as nails and they can wade through anything
 "I lined things up for my drive ill much the same way. When things opened up I had the holes all reamed and the proper tools all in place. So when the drive started we had a whirlwind start, and the way we walked away from the other gangs was good to see. According to my way of figuring this thing called morale is blamed important in any game. I don't care rap whether its soldering or driving rivets, you've got to have the boys mentally and physically up to snuff. I aim to keep my huskies standing right up on their toes most of the time. In the respect of keeping the boys in a fighting mood, I am aided by my boss riveter Joe Diamond, who has been in the game for more than twenty years the country How about it, Joe?"

 Before the American troops over wonder made drive on the Hun they make careful preparations days in advance. I follow the same princi- pie in getting ready for a riveting drive.
 "Riveters were as scarce as monkey Wrenches in a parlor when Uncle Sam opened the ball in the shipbuilding game. We've had to make 'em, that's all."
 Everyone of my forty-three gangs of riveters were as green as fresh pine only a short time ago. 1 got 'em from the training school which has been established in the yard by the Industrial Relations corps, of the United States Shipping Boards Emergency Fleet Corporation. have worked like coal beaver whip ping this raw material into shape, and I want to say right now there are no better working bodies in the world.
