KEEPING HOUSE WITH THE HOOPERs

spection and picking up. she seemed un-
usually pre- occupied. In any one less
given TO cheeriness her mood this morn
ing might be called worried. AS a mat
ter of fact she had a very serious prob
lem on her mind that had nothing what
ever to do with finances. Her dilemma
concerned Helen. She was a most
thoughtful, conscientious child. unusually
dependable for her age, and because of
her mothers careful training from the
time she was n baby neatness, order and
care of her clothes and her person seemed
like second nature But on two or three
occasions within the last week Mrs.
Hooper had detected her In the telling
of an absolute falsehood. She tried to
analyze The reason as to why Helen
should net have told the truth in each
one of these cases, but there seemed no
solution as far as she could see
She wondered If all children at that
age told small white lies. She couldn't
recall that Roger ever had done so But
Roger was q boy-and perhaps girls were
different. She had refrained from talk
ing the matter over with Helen until she
had tried to study out the reason why
a child as carefully reared as she had
been should suddenly become possessed
of the habit of telling untrGths.
She recalled now that the speaker at
the club on Friday would be a we'll
known lecturer on child psychology and
she decided to put the question to her
In the hope that some light might be
thrown on the reason for such behaviour
on the part of Helen before she took the
matter up with the child on the basis
of counsel or discipliae.e
The luncheon was tie usual pick-up

LOIS WEBER TEl LIS
ANOTHER GOOD NARN.

Lois Weber has aided in writing and
producing another interesting drama Of
married life.
1t is called TOO wise Wives"
It is essentially a steTy Of contrasts
one wife who makes her husband un-
comfortable by her honest but overdone
efforts to please him and another wife
who plays the role Of loving wife OF
a man of wealth. but deep down in her
heart she is a cheat. The wealthy wife
has her admirsng eyes on the husband
of the over dutifU, wife.
All the action m the story centers on
the efforts of the good wife to learn how
to please her husband and on the at
loyal to her husband while she is hatch
ing little schemes.
Claire windsor and Mona Lisa are the
two wives, and the husbands are por-
trayed by Louis Calhern and Phillips
smalley. With these four players In the
chief roles, one can be assured that the
acting Is always way above the averages
Nearly forgot to tell you that the pho
Biography is great. especially the scenes
taken in the wonderful home of the rich
man. Always remember when Lois Weber
has a rich mans home photographed, she
takes her camera into the real home of
a really wealthy man.

MONDAY.

The advent Of the carpenter to put
IN the screens was a real harbinger OF
summer Not as inspiring as the green
leaves and bursting buds on the trees
outside the living room window, but
nevertheless m indication to the Hoopers
that winter was thing Of the past
After Mrs. Hooper had put him to
work and stationed Betty for pat Of
the morning in her play corner II the
back yard, she took up the WORK of
eliminating as many Of the winter things
in the matter of clothing and house
equipment as could be dispensed with.
Sudden changes Of weather had still to
be taken into account as far as the un-
derclothes and bedding were concerned,
but heavy coats and discarded outer
garments could be weeded out and as
many things put away as possible so
that the number to catch dust in the
summer would be reduced to a minimum.
As she carried a pile of newspapers on
the back porch the sound of Betty's cry
ing out in the sand box attracted her
attention and going out there to SEQ
what was the matter she saw the child
weeping bitterly and clawinR about in
the sand in most desperate fashion.
"My spoons is all lost. My spoons is
all lost" walled Betty.
Mrs. Hooper had given Betty two or
three big spoons Of varying sizes to
play with and their loss in the sand was
an almost daily occurrence and neither
Roger nor Helen could be depended on
to search for them as regularly as they
became buried from sight, so the job
usually fell to Mrs. Hooper
AS she poked about in the sand with
a stick, assisted by Betty, she tried to
think of something that would do away
with such a waste of time and save the
child the daily hysterical outbreaks that
always followed the loss Of the spoons.
When they were finally recovered she
gathered them together and, giving them
to Betty to hold, went upstairs to a
dresser drawer where she kept odds and
ends and found a roll of old pieces of
Christmas and birthday packages that
had been sent to the family at various
times Selecting a long piece of red, one
of pink one of green and one of blue
she took them down and fastened each
one securely to the handle Of a spoon
They were long enough 80 that no mat
ter how deeply the spoon might De
buried In the sand, Betty herself could
find the end of the long bright streamer
and recover 1t. Mrs. Hooper went back
upstairs content that this little device
would probably save her many trips
that she had been forced to make to the
sand pile to find Betty's lost spoons for
her.

the right to appear as a sweet little
girl In one movie she had to play the
role OF a sad mother The public did
not like Mary in that movie.
BY her work in Through the Back
Door" Miss Plekford again re-establishes
herself as the worlds sweetheart. 1 do
not want to fatter her too much but l
am forced TO admit that she looks
younger In this movie than she has ap-
peared for years.
The story gets started in Belgium be-
fore the war and our Mary is housed
In a home which does not shelter her
mother. The selfshness of a woman
who is keeping Mary prevents her from
being with her mother. When the war
breaks out. the rich mother goes to
America, leaving Mary over there. She
is permitted to come to this country
after the selfish woman repents and sends
Mary across the pond with a note con-
Tossing the 'lie" which she had told
Mary's mother concerning the chiId's
death.
Mary finds that her mother is rich
society leader. On the way over, Mary
picks up two little Belgium children
whose mother had died She carts the
two youngsters over to America and
taken them to the fashionable home of
Mary's mother.
Fate deals harshly with orr Mary and
she becomes a maid In her mothers
home. One day she breaks the news thaG
she is not a maid, but the daughter Of
the rich mistress Of the home This
gives the story a happy ending.
The photography is well nigh perfect
you expect that In a Pickford picture.
The woman who plays the role of the so
ciety woman, / do not know her name,
does some wonderfully realistic work.
Opinion--Just as we predicted last
Monday--this new Pickford movie is a
hit. 1t is Mary Pickford at her sweet
est self. Not to be missed

JACKIE COoGAN
IS A STAR NOW.

Remember JACKIE IoOEan VINO WIS
great comedy tool for Charlie Cnapiin in
"The Kid?"
OF course you do.
The lads rise to fame was so rapid
and such a safe bet that the movie pro-
ducers could not afford to hesitate in
making him a star.
So 1t was decided that Jackie should
frolic in "Peck's Bad Boy" and after
seeing it at the Circle yesterday and
on hearing hundreds Of people howl with
joy at the antics of this young gster, it is
sure bet that the producer made no
mistake In making Jackie a star.
The picture shows one thing, that
Jackie Coogan Is not an accident" This
boy can act and one is aware OF that
when he expresses sorrow when his dog
ls captured by the master of the dog
pond.
To my way of thinking, the church
scene is the funniest and the best done.
Jackie as Henry places some active ants
in fathers lumbago pad. When father
gets into church, the ants decide to
go on an excursion and the efforts Of the
father TO conceal his discomfort aids
In making one of the funniest scenes
ever flashed on a screen.
Jackie has as his pal a we'll trained
dog. This dog appears to love Jackis
and the way this hound dog acts Is i'm
mense. Jackie engages in all kinds Of
pranks and the way in which he eats
prunes and apples In addition to drink
ing cider. indicates that Jackie is
real boy after all OF course prunes,
cider and apples viii not mix and poor
Jackie has a terrible stomach ache.
Opinion-"Peck's Bad Boy" is a movie
which is bounc to please the children
and the grownups viii howl at the
stunts staged by Jackie. IT is a clean
picture and is full Of real laughs.

WARNER HAS ANOTHER
CROOK ROLE AT SMITHS.

The crook drama appears to be a fad
among movie producers these days.
The pace was set on the stage by
"Alias Jimmy Valentine" and writer's and
producers have attempted to beat or
equal the box Office appeal OF that play.
H. B. Warner Is a finished actor and
he does not humble himself or endanger
his reputation of being a polished actor
In playing crook hero roles. He has sucn
a role as Jimmy Doyle, crook in dice
of Destiny" which opened weeks en-
gagement at Mister Smiths yesterday.
Mr.. Warner has brought to the screen
many Of his stage mannerisms, which in
no way handicaps his work on the screen.
Jimmy Doyle decides to go straight
when he becomes the guardian of Nancy
Preston, the pretty daughter of a former
pal Of Doyle. Jimmy has two former
rails, who decide to make 1t as difficult
as possible for him to go straight. These
crook pals frame" robbery on Doyle,
he is caught and Is sent to prison. While
in prison Doyle works as an assistant to
a doctor. In the meantime one of the
crooked friends of Doyle is making life
unpleasant for Nancy. Doyle is released
in time to take care of the troublesome
party.
Others in the cast include Lillian
Rich, Rosemary Theby, Frederick Hunt
ley. Claude Payton and others.

Miss Gordon to her husband" in this
movie which gives the picture most of
its great human appeal. This woman can
indicate more with a tear and the lift
ing Of an eyebrow than any actress l
have seen on the screen.
The story really centers on the un-
happy life of Roger Folsom, an Alaskan
pioneer and his pretty wife AS the
story indicates, the malice Of the wind
drives love out of the hut of the Folsom
and the result is another wrecked home
until the malice in the wind turns to love.
The snow scenes are well handled and
the story is well and logically developed.
This story Will appeal to the men and
the women will love Vera Gordon.
The director has been able to reflect
the gold fever of the north and by con-
trasting character is able to produce a
strong dramatic story. The suspense is
well maintained and by the introduction
of a number Of characters Is able to
make the person seeing the picture be-
come Interested In the fortunes of each
character Jane Thomas, William Fl.
Strauss, Tom Santschi and others are in
the cast.
The director has made a change In in
PRODUCING the characters and the actors
taking the parts at the close Of the pic
ttre instead OF at the beginning.
Opinion Am sure you will enjoy the
work Of Miss Gordon as well as the
splendid photography and the strong
story.
