to my house to see me quite often
and we spend delightful times to-

out it is always somebody else.
/ cannot understand this because
when we are together he seems to
care for nobody else. We have the
same tastes, both loving out OF door
life and things of that kind and he
often calls me his good little pal.
When he takes otLer girls out they
seem to be just the opposite from
me and then he seems to care for

that city to date is one made from
the poems Of Will Carleton, whose
Farm Ballads" constitute some OF
the most characteristic idyus OF
American rural life.
Probably no other American poet
came so close to the hearts OF his
readers as did Carleton. His were
the life stories Of plain folks. HIS
characters were drawn direct from
iife-were people he had met In hts
early experiences on the farm. IL
was for this reason that our parents
and grandparents held him in such
great esteem and that his verse has
been sd favored by elecutionists OF
the last three generations.
While the great william Fox pro-
'duction "Over the HILL" based on
Carleton's poems is still running In
New York City-where IL has been
shown for many months. there nave
been so many demands for It's APP
pearance in other cities that the

demand. One OF the hrst cities

Eugene OBrien Tells
The Woes of Being a
M0ti0n-PictIre Hero

TIE average patron Of the photo
play probably imagtnes that the
life OF a screen star is literally. a
hbed of roses" Therefofe IL will be
of interest and perhaps q little un-
expected to some to learn that there
are some very decided ideas to the
contrary. II there is one person
who II particularly qualified to
speak on the subject IL is Eugene
o'Brien. the Selznick star who is
featured In Worlds Apart" the
photodramatic attraction OF the
vaudeville and picture bill at the
Strand Theater all week. beginning
Monday.
Being Q moving picture hero is
very trying to q man with sense
OF humor." says O'Brien. "A hero.
you knew. must never smile. except
tenderly. or sardonicaily. or sadly,
or patiently. He must never lose
his dignity. no matter what hap
pens. He must make love exquisite
ly, ferventiy, yet respectfully. More
over. he must make love to all
kinds Of ladies he would never
think of wooing in real life. And
above all. he must be always hor-
rifyingiy In the right. He may ap-
pear 20 be wrong for a few hundred
feet OF Him, but Inevitably at the
hnish he must take the center of the
set, his face radiati1g conscious

and the rese OF the cast registering
admiration.
"He must read fan letters. He
must be interviewed by stern fe-
males In tortoise shell glasses who
ask him frightfuliy embarrassing
questions, and then 60 away and
interpret his frightened gurgies
into seven paragraphs Of awful rot
which ruins his reputation.
.He must submit to dreadful per-
sonai exploitation by the publicity

Ambition to Fly
Causes Gdyety Star
To Decline Contract

Ambitious to be the first Ameri-
can woman to build and flv her own
airplane. Miss Kathryn Dickey, fea-
tured star with James Z. Coopers
"Roselapd Girls" at the Gayety The
ater this week. has declined to sign
"a contract for summer work and
will devote her hot-weather period
to studying aeronautics at Colum-
bia University in New York.
Miss Dickey has been threatened
with arrest more times than the
average burglar because OF her ad-
miration for flying ships. Far be
it from her to purposely violate the
laws made and provided. but when
she gets near a flying field the
temptation to sidle up close to the
planes and take a peek at the mech
anism is as strong as Jack London's
Call of the Wild"
Consequently, the field cops. in
some instances military guards. are
kept busy chasing her from one end
Of the field to the other. At Dayton
Field Miss Dickey's record was:
Seventeen warnings to keep out
side the ropes.
-Four threats of arrest.
One personal plea from the cor
poral Of the guard to get back and
give the flyers a chance"
But Just as a rare flower some
times blooms sweetest in a desert of
weeds. SO Miss Dickey's flying bee

couraging inhibitions. CONSEQUENT
