HULA BELLE, CHILD ACTRESS, CENTRAL FIGURE IN GREAT SPECTACLE, 1.-THE BLUE BIRD."

The central figure in the big Mae terlinck spectacle, The Blue Bird an Aircraft picture which will be shown at the Coliseum Theatre for Thursday and Friday nights and Sat urday matinee, is Hula Belle, the child prodigy of the screen, whose wonderful work is well known to the patrons of motion-picture houses Though Tula is but eight years old she has been playing in pictures for several years, and has taken impor- tant roles.
 Tula was born in Norway, and came to this country when a mere baby. Her parents resided in New Rochelle, N. Y., and her precocious. ness and beauty attracted the atten- tion of local film producer who tried her out in pictures. It was dis covered that she possessed great dra matic ability, and from that time on her services have been in great de mand for picture work.
 In "The Blue Bird" she and Robin Macdougall, aged ten, are the child ren who go in quest of the Blue Bird, and experience wonderful adventures.
 Theoretically, Tula is the star of the production, and according to the story it is for the benefit of the little girl and her brother that the Fairy Berylune causes the events to take place that constitute the big spect' acle. The scenario was written by Charles Maigne.

Cannot Escape Responsibility
For PreCipitating Bloody
Conflict.
By United Press:


PARIS, Sept 3.-The people of
Austria. although that country is no
longer under the mOnarchial regime
that brought on the war. cannot
escape responsibility for the conflict
and must pay for its consequences.
This is the message being convey
ed 10 Vienna today by DR.. Karl
Renner. Austrian chancellor, who
was handed the peace treaty yester-
day.
In answering Austria's protest
with regard TO the formation of new
states from the late Austro-Hun-
garian nation the allies declared the
partition was an inevitable result of
the policy Of ascendancy which the
Vienna government pursued over
subject peoples.
The allies pointed. however, that
they were eager TO assist Austria in
adapting herself 10 her new position
and for this reason had made GER
tain economic notifications in the
treaty. Austria viii receive coal
from Czecho- -Slovakia and Poland
in return for raw materials
The allies refused to grant any
further territorial concessions.
The allied note, signed by Premier
Clemenceau, requires an answer in
five days.
