even if she does not win, the fact that
she was picked out of so many will
lead to her getting q start in the
movies.
The Other Three
The other three are Anetha Getwell,
Chicago, blonde; Lucille Kle Bold,
Atlanta. Ca, very much like Mary
Miles Minter, and Evelyn Jewel Poutch,
Louisville, KY, a blonde.
Olga Petrova and Richard Barthel-
mess, who played the part of Chink in
Broken Blossoms," watched the in
the motion picture camera The girls
were noticeably excited over coming
into close contact with such seasoned
stars, and "Chink" was lionized on all
sides
The scenario was the story of an
artist who went in quest of beautiful
women, and there were plenty on hand
to fill the bill. True. they were some
what embarrassed about parading
around in negligees and pink stockings
in broad daylight, but, then--any-
makeup seemed little ghastly to the
girls, and some of them got the i'm
preston that they would be discount
ed as soon as they appeared with arti-
tlclally blanched faces, green eyelids
and their nice, pink cheeks completely
obliterated But the director Of ccre-
monies appeared to understand all
about it and was very patient in put
ting the girls through their PAGES and
showing them how to register pain,
fear, fright and other emotions
water in the distance made an attrac-
tive background for the little play
starring twenty-five picked beauties.
To Make 1t Pastoral
Chickens, ducks, dogs and rabbits
were requistioned to make the picture
pastoral. Little Miss Poutch firted
with lamb, which occasionally became
unruly and refused to eat his dandelion
leaves, but on the whole things wen,
we'll and the collie and the lamb posed
almost as we'll as the untutored
actresses which was very we'll indeed
for beginners.
A chaperone was on hand to keep
kindly eye on so much beauty and
shapeliness garnered from all quarters
of America. Some of it so very juven-
lie that it had not yet passed the school
stage: But her job was an easy one,
for the girls were all so desperately
intent on playing their parts we'll and
making the most of their good looks
that they could not conceivably get into
mischief.
For most of them it was their first
trip to New York, and all came with
million dollar aspirations and ambi-
tious dreams of fame and fortune. 1t
was inevitable that faces fell and
forms dropped a little as the twenty
five dwindled slowly but surely to six.
Hopes are still high among the six re-
naming. and everything depends on
"Little Mary" The girls most like her
hope she will be partial to her own
type.

PEACE DELEGATES
NOT SCRUTINIZED
Stirring Scenes Are Expected
If Credentials Committee
Gets to Work,

PARIS. Feb. 10. tBy the Associated
Pressl-If the peace conference COM
mission on credentials ever begins 10
function some stirring developments
are expected to follow.
The commission has not met h u
far, even to organize, the conference
having gotten along entirely without
the right of any Of the delegates TO
their seats being challenged, which
probably is without precedent In the
history Of such international gather
ings, ii being recalled that the famous
Westphalian congress Of l6A7 spent the
better portion Of a year In verifying
the credentials Of its members.
The usual course at these assem-
blages is for the delegates TO exchange
their credentials as soon as they gather
any one Of them being privileged to
make objection to the credentials or
another II he finds ground TO do so.
1t was stated, however, that the com
mlttee on credentials of the present
conference would conduct any investt-
cation found necessary Of the sutt-
cheney Of the papers brought by each
delegate, and that it would await the
arrival OF all the delegates before un-
dertaking the work.
The delegates have been coming along
in single file ever since the opening
of the conference. and 1t has not been
thought proper to begin the eNamina-
ton of the documents, Rumors, how
ever, have been current recently that
there was another reason for the delay
the apprehension on the part of the
directing forces Of the conference that
objections would be Immediately lodged
against the presence Of some persons
who have already occupied seats in the
conference and who, it is declared, are
not proper representatives Of their gov
ernments, or are accredited by oTganl-
cations that have no existence as gov
ernments

GIRLS Of FRANCE

U. S. Husbands, Paris
Paper Finds.

PARIS, Feb. 10. Correspondence Of
the Associated Press ITO get an
American husband seems to be the
ideal Of more than 40 per cent, OF the
Partisan young women. At all events,
that is the result of an inquiry con-
Quoted by L'Oeuvre, a Paris daily news
paper, which publishes a series OF let
ters setting forth the reasons that have
guided the writer's to give preference
to Americans over their Compatriots,
Those who would rather marry
Frenchmen base their prediction
largely on patriotic grounds; but a
large percentage of young French WON
en- confess to a whole hearted admira-
ton of the average Americans breezy
good humor and courtesy Of ann
toward the other sex.
Several French girls who have had an
opportunity to observe American home
life appreciate the easy camaraderie
between the sexes. and they come to
the conclusion that a GOOD comrade
must make a good husband.
Some fair writer's say French lovers
are given to talking over much and
are too fussy about their personal ap-
pearance. The question whether a man
ought to shave or not seems to agitate
the French feminine mind considerably,
and the voting Is about equal between
the smooth shaver American and his
French brother with a mustache.
One girl raises the curious objection
that Americans eat too much while
another disapproves Of the heavily
framed American s~pectaCles with the
huge round lenses which so many

FIERCEST STORM LOSES
AWE WHEN COMPARED
WITH EARTH'S POWER

| IL Is interesting to have look at
our own earth in its relation TO the
worlds that people the sky, says the
National Geographic bulletin. When
a mighty storm sweeps over the ocean
when a great war devastates conti-
nent, when a Katmai blows off her
head. when an earthquake destroys a
populous city. men stand overwhelm-
ed and awed at the spectacle.
But how little and Insignificant are
snch forces. measured by the majes-
tic might of the earth as It sweeps on
its course around the sun!
An eminent physicist f.as estimated
that the power developed by a million
Niagaras I'm a million years would not
equal the energy expended by the
earth In a single second as 1t circles
around the sun.
And yet so perfect is the mechan-
ism that. flying around its axis at an
equatorial speed of more than a thou
sand miles an hour, and around its
orbit at more than 100 miles a min
ute, all the mundane influences of
which astronomers know could not
change the length of its day as much
aS secoHu IN huhureu tnousanu
years.
But as soon as one looks out into
space with the eye of the astronomer
there comes the discovery that in all
its seeming greatness the earth is so
small that even a telescope 10000
times as powerful as the strongest in
strument now in existence would not
reveal It to an astronomer on any fix
ed star.
Compared even with the sun, our
planets insignifacance becomes evil
dent. More than 10000 spheres
like ours would be needed to make
