is the first time that Miss Ferguson has
appeared in a Western story and will
present her in a number of stunts"
staged among the mountains.
A signal honor has been conferred
upon Dustin Farnum by the city of
San Jose, Cal. Louis O'Neil, an official
of that city, made a special trip to Los
Angeles to invite Mr.. Farnum to be
the honor guest of the city officials at
their great Red Cross Rodeo, to be
held for four days, beginning the
Fourth of July.
1t has been left to the little town Of
San Jose and it's wide-awake inhab-
itants to plan the greatest Red Cross
benefit that has ever been held in this
country. Outrivalling the famous Pen
dleton, Ore, roundup will be this
affair, which for four days will bring
back the sports and pursuits of that
famous fraternity of men known as
cowboys, and it was the unanimous
choice of the committee in charge Of
the Rodeo that Dustin Farnum should
be the honor guest of the city Of San
Jose.
Another guest of honor will be Theo-
dore Roosevelt, many of whose Rough
! Riders came from San Jose.

Uncle Sam Has Become
A Movie Manager

Uncle Sam is now movie manager.
Recognizing the great value of the
movie, the United States government
has taken over the work of visualizing
on the screen the scenes Of the great
war and showing pictorial history OF
what is being done over here and over
there. The New York Tribune recently
said: "This Is the first war OF SUBJ
marines and aeroplanes-and 1t is also
the first war of movies. Just at pres
emit we should rate the movie as the
most powerful ally that hard-pressed
democracy has yet been able to sum-
mon to her side" In order that this
powerful weapon may be utilized to its
utmost strength, the Committee on
Public Information, Of which George
Creel Is chairman, now controls the
work of the United States Signal Corps
and navy photographers, and arrange
ments have been made whereby the

to climb over to get into. like an aero
plane? They would, indeed. 1t is like
an aeroplane, too, because it goes 1876
miles an hour, in the air part of the
time. But Tony is careful driver
He never kills any pedestrians. They
get out of the way.
The first time we ever saw Mr. Mo-
reno was in "The Island of Regenera-
tion." In spite of the fact that we
were not particularly interested in
movies at that time, save as an inno-
cent bystander, and in spite of the fact
that Edith Storey appeared sans every
thing with the exception of q glorious
golden wig, which was as luxuriant az
Melisande's, still we remembered Mo-
reno. So after we found ourself trans
ferred from the kennel department. to
the dramatic, with films as our partic-
ular line of endeavor, we resolved to
locate our sloe-eyed hero.
We found him in aladdin of Broad
way" Vitagraph picture, again with
Edith Storey, and again Miss Storey
had to do some wonderful aquatic
stunts, only this time she was clothed
and in her right mind when she leaped
into the raging torrent.
Not long after that We lost track
of Moreno again. That was when he
left the Vitagraph and went over to
Pathe and began to make serials with
Pearl White. We never see any serials,
not even Pearl White ones, and we sell
dom see any Pathe pictures but now
that Path6 has evinced desire to be
seen on Broadway why we expect to
see Mr.. Moreno's shadow very often.
There is nothing movie actorish
about Moreno, at least he is not at all
like ones conception of movie actor.
Another popular fallacy-and what is
so popular as a fallacy, unless it be a
movie actor? Anyway, Tony hates
talking about himself and much pre-
fers discussing shoes and ships or even
sealing wax When we said boldly, "Is
it true that thousands of strange
women WTlLo 10 movie aCIOIS OeIudHu-

be blushed-yes, perhaps a little like
sunburnt pomegranate-and said
that he had heard so.
When we asked him what he thought
of the inflated salaries of screen stars
he shrugged his shoulders and said
that most Of them got more than they
deserved and that his own salary was
quite modest in comparison with
many "However. it is all that I want
and l shouldn't know what to do with
any moro if had it," he concluded
Which proves, we think, that Antonio

What '7he Great Love" Means

David W. Griffith has a way Of max
ing people do just what he wishes them
to do. That is why he is such a WON
derful director and why the greatest
screen ingenues extant are called
Griffith girls"
1t was his duty recently to induce
the first ladies in England to scrub
floors, wash windows and perform
other duties equally thrilling and con-
genial for motion picture reproduction.
The picture for which these scenes
were intended is 1.-THE Great Love-"
now being completed at the Aircraft
studios, in California. Lady Diana
Manners, Elizabeth Asquith, the Hon.
Mrs. Montague, the Countess of Drog-
heda and others were called upon to
perform in the course~of their duties
in behalf of the war relief activities.
Even Queen Alexandra aided person
ally in the filming of the picture. The
new photoplay shows how society of
England is doing it's bit at home, and
offers fine example for American
women. In speaking of his experience
in obtaining the assistance of Britain's
celebrities in the production of his new
film, Mr. Griffith said:
81 never really knew the full mean
ing Of the word 'graciousness' until l
went to England and began to produce
my picture plays over there. l was In
rather delicate position. The per-
sonages with whom was working had
kindly offered their services as actors
and actresses in my story; they were
giving me their most valuable time
simply as a courtesy. But more will
ing and obliging assembly have never
had.
1.-THE title of my picture, The Great
Love- may mean many things. 1t may
mean the love of country, and again it

American wars, those were mainly iso-
lated scenes. They were never assem-
bled with the purpose of showing the
progression of events with historical
continuity D. W. Griffith once said
that some day the movie would super
sede the printed page in the teaching
of history. 1t has, at any rate, become
an equally potent power with the press
in moulding public opinion. Recognize
ing this power. the United States has
taken this step so that the real truth
about the war shall be shown on the
strong arm Uncle Sam can the more
readily dissipate and overwhelm the in
sidious lies of the Hun.

Movie Notes

Fred Stone last night closed his en-
gagement in "Jack OLantern" and
leaves for the Lasky Studio in Cali
fornia this afternoon to begin his mo-
ton picture work. Mr.. Stones first
photoplay will be a circus story that
practically tells the tale of his own
career as an entertainer. John Emer-
son and Anita Loos wrote the story,
which calls for a number of acrobatic
stunts on greater scale than was ever
possible for the popular actor to pres
ent on the stage.
10th and Donald Crisp will produce it.
Stone also expects to incorporate "The
Scare Grow" into one of his forthcom-
ing pictures. The former star of "Jack
OLantern" will be engaged in motion
picture work all summer.

Antonio Moreno, Familiarity and low
lngly known as Tony, looks as though
he might be the son of Carmen and the
Toreador. AS a matter of fact he was
born in the land of the guitar and the
castanet, and he still retains little of
his accent, although he has been living
under the Stars and Stripes for four
teen years. However, that isn't very
long. 1t has taken US that long to
learn to say "Te quiero mas que la
vida, mi querido," and even at that he
says we do not say it convincingly. 1t
isn't so much an accent that Tony has
as a peculiar construction of his
sentences.
eyes, I know" he said, ~ have no
accent, but when I forget to remember
about it I put the horse before the
cart. Isn't that what you call 2" AS
spoken by Mr.. Moreno "the horse before
the cart" sounded so attractive that
we let it remain that way.
We once read a story that some one
wrote about Antonio Moreno and it
said, Ebony Moreno has eyes like
sloes and skin like sunburnt pome-
granate when it blushes"-or perhaps
it was when he bushes. At any rate,
right after the grapefruit and just be-
fore the eggs Mornay we asked him
about it and just what it meant.
"Sloes," he said "Sloes? Why, l
think they are funny little animals like
moles. Or perhaps they are berries.
Pm not sure, but III have to look into
this. And know what pomegranate
looks like, but I never saw a sunburnt
one nor one that blushed"
However, whatever the person who
wrote it meant, it must have been
something nice. You just couldn't say
anything else about Tony Moreno. Not
that is, if you had any regard for the
truth

about one. Not always kind, either
