HSNAPSHOT character study"
- promises to become an important
part of the curriculum followed by many
American actresses in improving their
art. For years ambitious women of the
stage. including most of the stars have
made a practice of observing closely the
costumes. attitudes and speeches of the
women of the great workaday world
about them. To hold the mirror up to
nature has been the aim in stage por-
trayals Of womankind. Numerous have
been the instances where such actresses
assigned TO character" parts have
sought ont localities where such types
abound.
As for society women. they are con
stantly under the eyes and binoculars
of actresses who are called upon to
glide across the boards in the garments
of wealth and advanced fashion. But
now il seems the game of character
study has been brought down to fine
points. 1t is no longer a profitable
pastime merely. it is an art with me
chanical appurtenances.
The actress in her hours of leisure
which sometimes total up into months
of enforced ''rest''-need not depend
upon her memory to direct her correct
imitation in dress and posture of the
women she has seen on the streets, in
the shops, on the verandas and in sum .
mer promcnadcs. Lost within the depths
of her bag. dangling from a chain or
! else taut TO her wrist is n fat oblong
compartment of metal. The casual on :
locker would attempt TO identify it a,
gun metal vanity case, or else a
cigarette receptacle.
But it is neither of these. 1t is q
complete camera, equipped with films
and high grade lens.
The fad among actresses of swapping
+, fashionable and plain folk in uncon
scious attitudes was discussed by Mis-
Carolyn Lila, one of the leading play
ers in ''Parlor. Bedroom and Bath. ,
Women of fashion not only wear
the right things, but they know JUS
how to wear them" said Miss Lila t.
the playgoer. "A dip of a hat, a til
of a boa. a hitch in drapery-these ar,
the things which cannot be studied too
closely, and the camera catches tn
effect when the wearer is stair climbing
descending from carriage or rompini
with a child on the lawn"

4 NENSORSHlP is thing that Ameri
~ cans balk at almost automatically.
1t is probably not democratic and it
may be unconstitutional. The movies
have censorship however. not merely
that of the producers. but that of the
constituted authorities. The stage.
legitimate and vaudeville. has no
authentic claim TO exemption. Public
opinion. so far. is the only theatrical
censor. and that by its lack of organ :
ization and system is not very effcc-
tive. 1t can condemn and perhaps nd
versely affect notoriously offensive nro
ductions, but il cannot thoroughly Y
4 cleanse the general run of offerings
because they are not subject to systc e
matte scrutiny. Official censorship has
worked out well perhaps rather than i'll
in Great Britain and in some of the
continental countries. 1t may be the
only solution on this side of the water.
Whether the motive be ethical or
merely soundly commercial, the movies
are abundantly censored. The rulings
of local bodies of censors furnish con
slant cause for disputation, and doubt
less some of the officials are fussy or
pettifogging, but at any rate the ne
result is protection of the young from
the influence Of the nauseating which
would undoubtedly prevail if the lic
were lifted. The justice of oHicia
censorship is tacitly admitted by tn,
endeavors of some of the producers t.
maintain a reputable tone in the cinema
field
Additional proof is afforded in tn,

CLUB TO START
ROAD MOVEMENT
TO HELP TRADE

Efforts will be made tonight, at
an adjourned meeting of the Ne
mana Commercial club, to reach some
conclusion regarding the Tolovana
trail, over which much freight will
be hauled this winter if steps are
taken at this time to make the high
way attractive to freighters. The
question was taken up at the regu-
lar meeting of the club last Friday,
but in the absence of a number of
members whose opinions were de-
sired. it was decided to defer action
until tonight, at which time there
doubtless will be large turnout of
members.
Those who have investigated the
trail say that it can be put in ex-
cellent condition at very small cost
lit is by far the easiest route to
the Tolovana, starting from the
railroad at Dunbar's and passing
by the logiam, with no hills to
climb and with conf Portable stopping
places at convenient distances.
Freighters can load up at Dunbar's
and be in Brooks in two days, easy
travelling.
The use of this trail, it is argued
by those behind the movement, will
divert much of the Tolovana trade
to Nenana, which has the advantage
OF being nearer to Brooks than any
other town.
The only work needed to put the
trail in shape for winter travel is
the cutting of approaches where the
trail crosses the Chatanika river,
and the erection of tripods where
the trail crosses the lakes. -.
The meeting will be called to
order promptly at eight o'clock to-
night. and every member is urged
TO be on hand.

LAST STEAMER
REACHES PORT
ENROUTE HOME

The steamer Tanana, which went
down to Gibbon last week to make
connections with the Yukon for the
Outside, reached port on the return
trip to Fairbanks at an early hour
this morning and, after discharging
about thirty tons of freight here,
resumed the voyage up river, get
ting away about eight o'clock. The
steamer made excellent time be-
tween Tolovana and Nenana, in
spite of the fact that tht river was
running full of ice, and at the same
rate of speed, the boat should dock
at Cinema not later than 10 o'clock
tonight. But Captain Green was by
no means certain that he could
reach the upper town. Ice cond-
tons are growing worse hourly and
may stop navigation entirely before
the end of the day.
The Tanana left Gibbon with two
barges, one an empty which was
being towed to winter quarters, and
the other loaded with the last of
the seasons freight. The empty
barge had to be abandoned at Coss-
| jacket, on account of the ice. and
the loaded barge was left at Baker
Crossing, just above Hot Springs,
for the same reason, the run Of
ice having become so heavy that it
was impossible to make Roadway,
and there was, in addition. the dan
ger of sinking the barge
All of the freight possible was
loaded on the Tanana and the bal
ance of the movable cargo on the
barge was stored in the n. c. ware
house, near by. Among the heavy
freight left on the barge was
cold storage plant consigned to the
Tavern cafe, and considerable stuff
for the Alaskan Engineering COM
mission.
The Tanana brought the largest
list OF passengers for Nenana of
any boat during the season, many
of those landed having come from
the cannery at the mouth OF the
Yukon. They made the trip up the
