Jules Raucourt, Himself

: (This was almost reproach. as
though NJ. Raucourt were apologizing
for knowing so many things of which
we wot not.) But to continue:
Before l became a film actor T.
painted, wrote, danced and acted; that
is possibly why my lenient director,
Maurice Tourneur, chose me for the
Pierrot of Granville Barker
"In 1910, when | was twenty years
old, l published, in Brussels, a book of
poems, lie Jardin Pourpre' ("The Pur-
pie Garden"), dedicated to Auguste
Regnier.
CAS- a painter-well, I was sixteen,
brit Flaubert wrote a good play at four
tcen.-I copied the Breughels, Teniers,
Jordaens and Memlings. These Flemish
were the first to seize the hidden;
their eyes saw the root and their color
ing made that Of the Italians look
foolish
"Later,s as ar actor in Paris, I
learned more from Edouard Manet than
from Nine Sarah Bernhardt's Court
de Defamation at the Conservatoire
Boulevard Poissonniere, where I met
Lon Tellegen.
"On the legitimate stage there is
only one character that l care to re-
member to have played-Artanezzo. in
Henry Bataille's lie Scandale.'
NJ. Raucourt is not French. He was
born in Brussels in 1890 and was hon
orably discharged from King Albert's
army at the battle of Malnes. He has
played Picrrot opposite Marguerite
Clark in "Prunella"; Mario in "La
sTosca" with Pauline Frederick, and he'd
previously supported Mae Murray, Ann
Murdock and Emmy Wehlen.

Movie Directors Do
Not Need Whifevushine

10 the Film Editor of The Tribune:
Here is my modest answer to your
SIS the SQUAD Farm True?"
With due respect to Frederic and
Fanny Hatton, the producers, and the
artists playing in "The SQUAD Farm,
let's take quiet little squint into the
offices and studios of the big film con-
Germs. Then you who are interested in
the fantastic and tiresome Hatton affair
look to the legitimate Offices for the
deadly parallel.
There has been but one big tilm pro-
ducer divorced during the past five
years.
There have been but two film stars d-
vorced during the past eight years.
The following prominent film pro-
ducers and directors have had but one
wife-and are still content with the
original:
(Names deleted by censor)
But what's the use? could go on
for ten full columns and note the
names and addresses Of happily mar
ried couples who have spent the most
Of their professional days in the
studios. The film business has not yet
bred Nat Goodwin, De Wolf Hopper,
Conway Tearle, May Yohe or nation
wide scandal.
Unquestonably Mr.. and Mrs. Hat
ton got the data for their present
vehicle in the same manner as they Sc
cured their data for "Upstairs and
Down'-from distant observation; or
mayhap they submitted some Of their
salacious dialogue in scenario form to
one of the film producers, who prompt
ly suggested they would do better in
the legitimate with it.
One can nevar tell from where they
sit just what does prompt rancor.

ouite recently we went to see film
..ars;on of ia Tosca" and there we saw
Iules Raucourt, Mario who was new
to US.
We rather liked his work and we de-
.;dedlv liked his looks, and all the
while we watched the picture our sub
conscious mind suggested him as sub
;eet for Sunday story.
of course there are movie actors and
,,ovie actors, but having met both kinds
we were not prepared for something
different, and NJ. Raucourt is different.
We were rather afraid of him from
the start and had meant to ask such
simple questions as How long have
rou been in the movies ?" (Which do
vou prefer, the silent or the spoken
drama ?" "Who is your favorite act
ressq" and few other things which
ere suggested in the "Interviewers'
Guide
But he didn't wait for US to ask ques-
t;ons. He took it for granted that we
knew what he was taking about and he
talked of Flemish art and Vermeer
and of Cesar Franck and cyclical form
of the Sonata and of Ferhaeren, the
Belgian poet and dramatist, and of the
decline of the piece these in France
and lot of other things we can't even
remember the names of.
As soon as we could we stopped him,
and sticking pencil in his hand and
a piece of copy paper on his knee we
said "Write il in words of one syllable" >"
So here it is:
ITO distinguish himself from his fell
low animals q modern actor must be
versatile; he must live in contact with
the writers and painters Of his epoch"

Statement 10 The Public.

To the Idaho County Council
of Defense and the Citizens of
Idaho County:
l, the undersigned, Rev. Boni-
face Simmer of Ferdinand, Idaho,
make the following statement:
During the last year and a short
time prior to the declaration of
war between the United States
and Germany, | have at various
times made remarks and state
ments which have been construed
as indicating that l was not as
loyal to the Government of the
United States as a true citizen
should be. For any such remarks
| am sorry and make an apology
for the same.
have not in the past preached
to my congregation as | should
have done, in the way of impress
ing upon them the necessity of
full-hearted adherence to our Gov
ernment, and promise in the flu
ture to do all in my power to dis
courage all disloyal talk or actions.
The United States is my coun-
try. l love its government and
principles. My church requires
its priests to be loyal and to teach
and preach loyalty to the mem
bership of the church, and l will
in the future do all in my power
to aid our Government in the
great struggle for right and de-
mOcracy.
| hope and pray that our coun-
try will be successful in the pres
ent war, and that out of this trial
by fire it will emerge a bigger,
better, grander country.
