mately. Tellegen on the screen is
all that could be asked, but it is the
spoken drama that gives him the OPP
portunity to show the man that he
really is. And he does it despite the
setting in which he works.
Blind Youth is a comedy drama,
with very little comedy and scarcely
enough of the dramatic to make Tel
legen extend himself.
''The scene in the first act is laid
in Paris studio, where Telegen, as
Maurice Monnier, has fallen under
the spell of woman who has thrown
him overheard for man with money
and the struggling young artist is
endeavoring to forget his troubles by
looking on the wine while it is red.
In the second act he is shown back
in New York, rejuvepated and a
successful artist, deeply in love with
his artist model, but gaining very lit
tie sympathy from a mother who had
deserted him in Paris and whose life
conferred in her other soma half
brother of Maurice. The action of
the play centers around "Conny." the
woman Maurice had formerly loved in
Paris and who had come to America
and "vamped" Maurice's half-broth-
er. The disclosures which Maurice
made to his half brother to save him
from being duped by the woman
showed US some of the real Telle-
gen.

MARY PICKFORD TO OPEN
RYIANDED PICTURES

Mary Pickford's latest United Ar
lists production, 'The Love Light,
which will be seen at the Rylander
theater next Monday and Tuesday
for the motion picture opening, is
an entirely different story and an
absolutely new Characterization than
anything in which the Words Sweet
heart has heretofore appeared.
Ever since Mary Pickford has had
her own producing organization and
could dictate as to the type of photo
play in which she was to appear, she
has adopted the policy of never ad-
herring entirely to one line of parts,
not only because she believes that
the public like variety, but because
she believes the different lines of
characters tend to increase her abil;-
ty as an artist.
Those who saw her recent come
dies will certainly enjoy her in her
forthcoming production which was
written and directed by Frances Ma
rion, who, has been acclaimed the
leading scenario writer of the coun-
try, and bids fair to standing at the
head of the list of directoresses.
"The Love Light" has unusual in
terest owing to the fact that the idea
was worked out while Miss Pickford
was on her honeymoon, She met
Frances Marion in Italy, also on her
honeymoon, and the two worked out
the story sitting on high rock over
looking the Adriatie and it was in
Italy they secured many of the prop
critics and several of the players who
support Miss Pickford The players
and properties were brought all the
way from southern Europe to Cali

fornia where the Italian settings
were infinitely reproduced from pho
tographs taken by the two.
Miss Pickford has appeared in com
edy-dramas but never in an emotion
al drama of the type of "The Love
Light" and it was only after care
full study and deliberate considera-
ton that she felt herself equal to the
tremendous role she plays in this
story
Those who have seen the produc-
ton say that Mary Pickford rises to
histrionic artistic effects which a
screen artist has never before at
tempted, but in all this, in the clever
characterization of an Italian girl,
she is still the beautiful Mary whom
we love so much.
Miss Pickford has surrounded her
self with a splendid cast, which in
cludes such artists as Jean De Briac,
for several years leading man to Sara
Bernhardt, Raymond Bloomer, Ed
ward Phillips, Albert Prescott, Eve
Ign Dunno, who played with Miss
Pickford in Little Peppina," but
who had returned to Italy to play
important roles in an Italian compa-
ny, and George Rigas.
The photoplay was done by
Charles Kosher who was also respon-
sible for the geographic effects in
"Suds," "Pollyanna" and several
other recent productions of Miss
Pickford.

Lou Tellegen, who will appear at
the Rylander theater tonight in the
comedy drama, Blind Youth" APP
peared last night in Macon and highly
pleased his audience by his own abil-
ity, but the play itself fell short, &C
cording to the critic of the Macon
Telegraph. Says The Telegraph in
its review of the play:
AS an actor, Lou Tellegen is all
that an actor should be. He has abil-
ity physique and a personality that
draws you to him the moment he
steps on the stage and without any
apparent effort on his part he makes
you like him So much for the ac-
tor part of it.

much cannot be said for him, if you
are to take his latest vehicle. Blind
Youth, as an example of his best
judgment. Not that there is anything
so very much wrong with the play
itself or those who make up the cast.
You merely have the feeling that it is
so much histrionic ability gone t.
waste. Out of all the plays that have
been written, it seems there SHOULD
be something better for Lou Tellegen
But after all those who went to
the Grand last night, and there were
a good many of us, went there to see
Tellegen himself, and we were not
disappointed. 1t was the same Telle-
gen we have been seeing for some
time on the silver screen and whom
we have painted to know more init

BUENOS AIRES, Feb. 1O.-Labor
troubles in the city of Rosario have
assumed threatening proportions and
a serious outbreak is apprehended
by the authorities there. A general
strike has been called and many
unions have either summoned their
men to quit work in sympathy with
the striking municipal employees or
have presented their demands for
wage increases. The number of dis
contented unemployed there is said
be growing daily.

cabinet positions. Those which his
close friends believe have been vir-

artment of justice, postmaster gem
eral and secretary of the department
of agriculture, to be filled respective
ly by Charles E. Hughes, Harry NJ.
Daugherty, Will H. Hays and Henry
Wallace.
For secretary of war several men
still are mentioned in gossip close
to the president-elect. These include
John W. Weeks, whose name also is
linked repeatedly with the navy and
treasury portfolios. Frank o. Low
den is another mentioned in connec-
ton with the navy job, and friends
of Andrew W. Melton still are urg-
ing him as secretary of the treasury
Senator Fall, of New Mexico, is
believed to be under serious consid-
Grafton for secretary of the interior,
for which John Hays Hammond. al
so is being urged.
1t is in regard to the secretary
ships of labor and commerce that
Harding's mind is believed farthest
from decision.
In addition to his work on CORE
spondence, Harding had appointments
today with John Barrett, former head
of the Pan-American union, and Mrs.

turn at Eola. The back fender
was torn off and hub cap. Mr..

off the pavement and this, he
says, is all that prevented a SER

to see what had happened, and he
was going so fast that Buchanon
did not get the number of his
machine.
