NORMA TALMADGE HAS NO "TEMPERA-
 MENTAL" POSE
Clever Screen Star Says Tenn peramental Players DOn't
 Understand Cooperation.

There is no artistic temperament about Norma Talmadge. Miss Tal- madge is one of the most sane and reasonable little women in the world. She has learned by long and hard experience that it pays to control ones temper. About her work she is always kindly and friendly. When things go wrong, she simply gets busy and tries to straighten them out
 Temperament, says Miss TaI- madge, 'Is too often an excuse for not playing the game Tempera- ment strikes me as being the anar- chistic tendency in life. It is purely a condition of non-co-operation.
 If one is grouchy and wants to escape the consequence of acting in accordance with that grouch, one lays it all to temperament A real artist cannot afford to be tempera- mental She has an important mis- sion to fulfill, and temperament, or should I call it temper, flinders rather than helps her to obtain true suc- cess.
 'I have often heard it charged that women of the stage or screen were more temperamental than men. I have heard it said female players blew up and raised cain' about the
  postte sex. There is nothing more untrue. I don't believe there's a bit of difference between the cosmic makeup of men and women. Given the same circumstances of living and the same training, I believe one will find that women will develop the same mental and spiritual attitude that is found in men, or vice versa. D
 Miss Talnadge is an alert, thor oughly modern American girl. She has risen to the very highest position among dramatic actresses of the screen through her splendid ability her beauty and her judgment as to what the public wants. She has never put out a photoplay that has failed
 There is no actress on the screen today who takes a deeper persona interest in her work. Every though and almost every moment of the day is devoted to planning and studying TOT her future efforts A

POII'S.

One of the greatest of American dramas, Secret Service, has been filmed, with Major Robert Warick, just returned from overseas, in the leading role. This wonderful story of the Civil War in its picturized form is featured in an excellent pro- gram at Polfs, the first half of the week. The photography, story and cast are excellent the combination resulting in one of the most enter taining photodramas seen here in a long while.
 The vaudeville program is equally as enjoyable. Not Yet. Marie,'' d musical comedy, by Frank Stammers, heads the bill. Starred in this snap py revue are William Edmund Cot ton. Boyne and Donahue. and a big beauty chorus.
 Other vaudeville features are FL liott and West, in their repertoire of poppy vaudeville advertisements; Bert and Betsy Ross, in a skit called The Check Room GirP'; and Leona Var ara, talented singing comedienne, with a distinctive song program.
 The Patbe News and a Mack Sen net comedy, "No Mother to Guide Her" are other attractions in the @lm program.
