LOOKS EASIER NOW

Berlin May 9-The advice which Rob- ert F'riedlander, widely known industrial ist and financier, gives his countrymen in the course of an examination of the allied ultimatum and protocol is this:
 The fate of Germany and her futurc good name are in our hands; let us go to work This document has not been drafted by generals or politicians but drawn up by sober minds calmly calcu- iating business men, who. while not wholly disinterested have carefully weighed the prerequisites upon which their conclusions are based.''
 Herr Friedlander believes the allies terms are acceptable, he says, because they are not unreasonable and can bA fulfilled under conditions which may be taken for granted, and which, indeed, will be incorporated in the treaty.

He and his friend called last
night and he came in his working

house they did not remove their
caps. L consider that either a

ignorance. 1 would like to tell them
about it, but 1 was at a loss for
words to express. my Indignation.
They are coming up again soon.
Will you please advise me what to
say if they repeat the offense?

Helene Chadwick with her pet
monkey.

Helen Chadwick a little Goldwyn
leading lady, is another one of the
many Screen actresses who have
been called the "prettiest girl in
America" during the past few
months. Miss Chadwick, however,
is not a bit excited over the fact,
because she would rather be called
the greatest actress, pteferring to
be talented instead of beautiful.
She is a very genuine sort of per-
son, the kind who says when she
poses with monkeys that she does
not like them very much but she
will oblige Mr.. Publicity Man and
Mr.. Cameraman and be taken with
a snake if necessary. Showing
what an actress she is, she looks
quite charmed while holding the lit
tie monkey. And as anyone will
agree, a lot of men will be willing
to revert to type, in the Darwinian
sense, after looking at this pose.

Mary Pickford is not the only
motion picture actress who can
successfully play juvenile parts
Corinne Griffith is proving in her
latest picture that she, too, can
romp and play through a 12-year-
old part with all the youthful aban-
don necessary. In Moral Fibre
Miss Griffith jumps fences, hides
under tables and otherwise plays
the hoyden. She does not seem to
have found the part difficult, bu;
she has many bruises and two skin
ned knees to testify to the earnest
ness with which she played tie
part.
OF course, later in the picture
she dons tie low-necked evening
f1nery and becomes her, usual self.
The contrast between the later
episodes and the earlief scenes are
good proof of her ability as an
actress. She is supported by a
splendid cast, including Catherine
