chief Justice have done more to stabil-
ize our government than anything else.
The Railroad Plan.
The fact that we have been bear
ing away from the fundamentals OF
our government gives the reasons or
our system of checks and balances"
the speaker said. He referred to the
taking over of the railroads by the gov
eminent, and said that before people
had seen the plan in operation there
were many who favored government
ownership. Then he spoke of the rail
way employees plan or the Plumb
scheme. In the first place he said tnat
it would never be put In operation. In
the second place he characterized It as
"the most fantastic and absurd thing
every contemplated" It would make
a monopoly for the benefit of the en-
ployes. Our constitution Is for NIL
classes. not for any one. IF there es-5r
comes a time when we permit the
employees Of our transportation sys-
TENS to organize and threaten as they
do to paralyZe our system, what would

a fair wage, wage that would give a
man an opportunity to save something
as well as live. We must tell LABOR
that it must adopt right remedy and
not wrong one. If this idea OF the
railroad plan should prevail we would
have quasi-soviet form of govern
ment, and America would be Russian
lied, not Americanized.

store in western state where there
were fifty books and pamphlets on

Bible. We have a fight of peace to

The speaker closed his talk with an
excerpt from Lincoln and the little
historical anecdote of the signing Of
the constitution, when Franklin re-
ferred to the half sun on the back Of
the speakers chair and said that ne
knew now 1t was a rising sun. This ls
the attitude that the speaker urged
people to take, and to revere the old
document which has stood for genera
tons. and to foster Americanism of
the purest type.

cert band played half hour program

Anna Wheaton, Mouser

Here's another star bowling over all
traditions. Anna Wheaton likes mice.
The star Of "Oh, Boy" playing at
Polls TheateT next week. doesn't give
a darn who knows 1t, either.
During a matinee of "Oh, Boy" in
New York, Hal FOrde caught a mouse
in his dressing room. He thought it
would be a good joke to turn it loose
among the girls during the intermis-
SION. So when they came trooping up
stairs between the acts, Forde took
the mouse from his pocket-where it
was wrapped in a handkerchief-and
turned it loose in the corridor, just as
a score of pretty girls came into the
offing.
The screams and display of hosiery
may well b. imagined. But what did
the poor little mouse do? In the con-
fusion he darted into Anna Wheaton :
dressing room. The fair star was
among the last to come upon the
scene. and the girls warned her not to
enter the dressing room. Did she fall
ter? She did not. Straight into her
room marched the intrepid Anna
Wheaton, shut the door after her,
caught that mouse in a corner by COW
sring IL with a makeup towel and
proudly emerged with her trophy.

OF the mouse could be clearly seen.

two great artists. and they live their
own philosophy very faithfully. Along
the shores of Long Island Sound,
Cavalieri and Muratore have a sum-
mer home. 1t is not far from New
London, Conn, and its grounds sweep
down under fine old elms to the shores
of the sea.
Here is their playground, when
Cavalieri is not making pictures for
Paramount, and when Muratore Is
not singing at the Metropolitan. They

stage wardrobes. They fit up and
down the beaches, over the rocks,
under the trees. They play through
the summer days at all sorts of odd
roles. but always they play, for play
keeps love alive, they'll tell you.
Life has not always been play
time and love with Cavalieri. She
first opened her eyes in the city of
Rome, near the Porta Salaria. and
she was the child of a laborer, a
very poor laborer. In Rome. even the
children sing in Italian. and Caval-
ieri sang much in many keys before
she was IS, when she was discovered
by a cabaret proprietor. That was
the start. The long, uphill climb is
over now and CavalieTi may sing and
play along the Long Island beaches.
And while she plays. she goes on
steadily loving her own great lover.

Making A Volcano Bloom

Without ostentation, there has been
perfected at Moore's Strand Theater
one Of the most spectacular entr'acte
lighting effects in the city.
1t will be recalled that the massive
stage setting at the Strand gives the
effect of looking across a magnificent
marble portico to town on the
Riviera TO the Mediterranean and be-
yond to the mountain range. where
an ominous volcano rears its threat
ening bulk. Originally this master
piece of stage investiture was utilized
merely as a conventional scenic beau
tification. Now the full stage equip
ment is employed to make OF this
scene a lifelike reproduction OF even
ing at the edge of a Southern sea.
The Strand, incidentally. having
been for years devoted to the pre-
sentation of stage plays. is one of
the best equipped theaters- in WASH

Petrova, the Tigress? If 1t Means Gracious,
Amiable and Brilliant Woman-Yes
Keith Headliner First Drew
a Salary of $3.50 Per
Week-She Has Trav-
efed Quite a Bit Since
Then.

Some said it couldn't be done,
but she did it."
Which quotation aptly sums up
the career, down to the present,
OF Petrova-we are going to call
her that because she likes it. Usu-
ally the summing up of a career
comes at the finish OF that career,
hence we hasten to caution the
reader that this is the exception.
Petrova's career is not finished
won't be for many years. though it
IS hard to see just what additional
laurcls she may claim. e..
But the story told us by the
gracious lady herself was most
surprising, Surprising because she
hardly mentioned her success
but dwelt upon her failures. And
as she told OF them we detected
tone OF happy reminiscence, and
reverence for the lean days.
Now we felt that We belonged
to this atmosphere, once having
tested and compared the reSiliency
OF a park bench with the enyel-
oping caresS of an ostermoor-but
as kipling would say, that is an
other story, although it enabled us
10 appreciate Petroya.
To those of US who have met Pc
trOva through the medium Of stage
and screen where her sheer artistry
has lifted her to a place of honor
among the leading actresses of the
wOrld-it would seem rather bookish
to reveal the fact that her first en-
gagement was for the muniffcent sal
ary of $50 per week And she saved
money on it. OF course, it was in
Europe and quite a bit before the
war.
And in this engagement Petrova
says she was hissed and booed more
than any actress in England, glory
ing in the fact rather than decryins IL.
Another peculiar feature about this
first engagement was the fact that it
was given in a converted church, the
minister of which had decided that
he could reach his flock better

Film Actors Bring
Old Town to Life

Some towns have been famous
since birth, others achieve fame,
while there are some that have
fame brought to them whether
they want il or not. OF this last
class is Old Tappan. N. Y. which
has been lying undisturbed and
needless to say-undisturbin
since it was founded way back
when this nation was in it's
swaddling clothes.
Fame was taken to Old Tappan
by way of motion pictures. Old
Tappan had been selected as the
locale of several scenes in a pic
ture Evelyn Nesbit is making un-
der the direction of Charles j.
Brabin. and 1t was selected for
the very fact that it is so sleepy.
Director Brabin loaded his star
and about seventy-five extras
into a big bus and drove to Old
Tappan-scaring that little viii
lage out of its somnolence into a
life it never had visioned before
The villagers gathered around
the company and watched with
great interest while the various
scenes were being taken. Mr.
Brabin at first thought he might
use some of the villagers as ex-
tras, but after he had seen them
he concluded that he had been
very wise in bringing his own
rnmnapv for II upnnI1 ha ;r,no.
sible to take moving pictures of
Old Tappan folk that would
move.
