NEW Jan. %. - Mary Pickford,
40 years from now, the bloom of
Youth faded, the gold of her hail,
run to silver, the light of her eye
dimmed-how will life look to her?
That's what | have just been dis
cussing with Mary herself.
''If l live that long" she began.
"Oh, / don't know. An old age with
out children about is horrible, the
loneliness of it all. Certainly I shall
want to have children about me if /
am to live to ripe old age.
Youth is the greatest thing in the
world. The mother lives her youth
over again in the youth of her chill
|dren. And so if there are children
about when ] am old in years shall
not be old at heart.
Il think shall live to be an old,
old woman if | don't worry. Worry
is the greatest affliction person
can have just as happiness is the
greatest medicine. Worry kills peo-
pie, Kills more OF them than any
disease"
What about your future in pic
tures?" | asked.
i want my next picture to be bet
ter than any | have yet done. Many
of our friends think DOUGLAS and I
ought to make one together, but per
haps it would be better to appear

But that will not he for long
time them" | suggested.
"Oh, don't know" Marv an,

All of this talk about Mary's old
age seemed a bit profane TO me
as looked upon her. She is still
little girl, her hair in golden curls. a
childish naivete in her expression
She seems like little girl who has
put on her mothers long skirts to
play "grown-up.
But that's hardly the way to speak
Of Mary's clothes. She has lust
brought back IA trunk loads of
clothes from Paris. She showed them
all to me. To girl, suppose, the
opening Of the doors of Mary's clothes
closet would have been like the OPEN
ing of Pandora's box. To mere
man it meant only the display of fine
cloth and that great masculine cues
tion-how much did they cost?

KLAN CONDUCTING
MEMBERSHIP DRIVE
in new YORK TOWN
Especial to The Tribune)


NEW YORK, Dec. 15-The Ku Klux
Klan is conducting an intensive mem
bership drive in this city, and so far
has enlisted the services of several
ministers, among them the Rev. Viii
liam Burd, Methodist minister at st.
Marks Church in Princess Bay, S. /.
This minister of white Christianity
and traitor to Christ, admitted to re-
porters in the Staten Island edifice
that he had preached Klanism in BIZ
BILE classes.
In his talk to the Bible classes. the
Christian minister pronounced the
Klan a patriotic organization imbued
with noble principles, and stated that
one of its cardinal principles was the
answering conviction that the white
race should be forever supreme in
America.
This portion of the Klan Kreed, he
explained, was to meet conditions in
some parts of the South where the
colored race is in the majority Con-
curing with the teachings of the Klan,
he declared this to be the white mans
land, and for the best interests of
civilization capitalization? and soci-
ETY., white supremacy should prevail.
At another church in New York
Klan circulars were distributed fol-
lowing collection at the morning SER
vice. At this church. however, the
minister denied knowledge of the Klan
circulars and was apparently angry
over the incident
At the Calvary Baptist Church, of
which the Rev John Roach Straton, a
yaudevillian reactionary is pastor
dodgers were given out with the
church calendars. These dodgers car
ried invitations to become Klan men,
bers, with the advice to write at once
to N. c. T., Box No. 81, Tenafly, New
Jersey. (No Postals. J"
Those who wrote received a reply
that read:

tunity to join will be given, at Mead's

SPORT TOURING
CAR is LATEST in
MAXWELL Line

The latest offering of the Maxwell
Motor corporation-a sport touring
car" fully equipped in all that the
phrase implies and listing at less than
a thousand dollars-bids fair to rank
equally as sensational as the introduc-
ton of the New Series good Maxwell
a year ago.
The new sport car" now displayed
in the show room of R. d. Roper Mo
tor company, local Maxwell dealer, is
intended, it is announced, as a fitting
companion for the present Maxwell
with the additional rakish features
and equipment so much in demand
among those who seek style extremes
and extraordinarily snappy perform
ance.
So far as record, in later years at
least, it is easily the most completely
equipped car of its type ever offered
to the consumer at less than a thous-
and dollar figure.
0enulne ATISlTy
1t is an attractive car that gives evi-
dence of genuine artistry in car de-
sign and appointment, as well as care
full consideration of the owners re-
quirements. The body and hood are
painted Chester Hunt red, with run
ming gear and disc wheels in black.
Drum-type head lamps and tie-rod,
parking lamps, radiator, and water
meter, are all finished in full niokle
Outside door handles are also nickle
with black aluminium inlay. An alumni
mum bead runs around the hood at the
cowl and lends touch that rounds
out the impression of completeness.
The upholstery is genuine long
grained patent leather of high finish,
and the top which is extremely well
made, is olive-drab duck two-ply, with
rubber insert-a new material recent
ly adopted by makers of much higher
priced sport models.
Fully Equipped
The equipment on the sport touring
includes spare cord tire which

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Dec. IS
While sitting in her automobile Tues

MISSISSIPPI JUSTICE

CRYSTAL SPRINGS, Mass.-Miss
Honor Maud Barron of Crystal Springs
was awarded $2,25O damages by the

against the Pullman Co. and the Illi-

representation that a colored person
was permitted to ride in an adjoining
berth last summer in a Pullman car
from New Orleans to Crystal Springs.
She testified she saw porter help a
colored person into berth, which ad-
joined the one she occupied.

This is mounted on a heavy nickled
trunk-rack in the rear, with bright fin
ish aluminium trunk bars to protect
the body.
The Sport Touring, including all
equipment, lists at $100 above the
standard Maxwell Touring Car.
It's unusual beauty and the com
pleteness of equipment is certain to
make it most popular model.
