peka from the top OF the state house
dome, 1900 steps in the air. Up
they went-walking every inch Of the
way.
1T didn't bother us" Mr.. Hooper
said today. I'VE are used to exer-
else and steps and walking and the
hot SUNNI ers of the west"
Did your son go with you?" the
father was asked.
No, hardly" the elder Hooper re-
piled He said it was too hot. He
said he was too tired. He said it was
too strenuous a climb. He said a
dozen things and so we let him off"
Today Mr.. and Mrs. Hooper are
hunting new places to go.

behold My Wife"
Splendid Film at
the Rialto Theatre

Hailed by the critics and motion
picture public as one of the finest
productions of the current season,
George Melford's Behold My
Wife," is coming to the Rialto
theatre for one day commencing
Sunday. The story was adapted
from Sir Gilbert Parker's novel of
the Canadian Northwest, THE Trans
lation of Savage"
The central characters are the
aristocratic son of an English fam
lily and the simple Indian girl
whom he encounters in Canada
while he is on business for the Hud-
sons Bay company. Receiving
word from his fiancee back N
England that she has broken with
him because of his family's objec-
ton to their marriage, the youth, in
a fit of rage, marries the Indian
girl and sends her back to England
as his wife to disgrace his blue
blooded sires. Then he proceeds to
hit the toboggan in mis- own way
However, dramatic events work a
Transformation in both the young
Englishman and his bride and the
ending is a happy one.
Behold My Wifei" has been
filmed against a background of
snow-capped mountain peaks, bleak
Canadian trading posts, and lux
urious English country homes. The
action is interpreted by a disting-
uished cast including Mabel JUL
lienne Scott, Elliott Dexter, Milton
Sils, and Ann Forrest. Frank Con-
don adapted the story to the screen.

Jane Novak VIII
Receive Weekly
Salary of ST, 500

New York, Feb. 1S.-I have just
received the news that Jane No
vak's new salary is 1900 a week.
That is one of the most incense
quentiaI things 1 know about Jane
Novak. 1 believe the best story
that could be published about Jane
NoYak is that the breath of scan
dial has never touched her.
Hollywood and the entire movie
industry at this moment needs
more stories like the true one Of
Jane Novak and less of the cock
and-bull stories about star salaries.
In the past year 1 have talked to
several hundred movie actors, &C
tresses, directors and publicity men.
Many Of them have lived in Holly

wood and a few of them have been
scandal mongers.
And when the gossips have told
me this about that star and that
about this star | have usually ask
ed, who in thunder among the
movie people is all right?'' And in
the brief lists in the answers Jane
Novak's name has always been
mentioned.
Jane Novak entered the movies
eight years ago, after having play
ed in a stage stock company with
her uncle in st. Louis. She was
II then.
She could have had sensational
roles but refused them. Stardom
was sacrificed for roles as leading
woman in more wholesome pictures.
Other girls who entered pictures
after Jane Novak were skyrocketed
to stardom and fame-and now are
almost forgotten Stardom was not
won by merit of their work.

High Salaries of
Movie Stars Due
To Income Taxes

Most of the stories published
about star salaries are true inso-
far as the amount of salary is con-
cerned-but that doesn't mean any
thing.
Ask the internal revenue collect
or of your district how much diff
ference in income a $50, 900 in
crease in salary means to per-
son getting salary of six figures.
The government gets the greater
part of it in income tax
One reason you are paying high
admission prices to the movies is
that the producers had a few fat
years in which they made so much

Mary Pickford in Little
Lord Fautleroy" Opens
at the Spencer Square

Mary Pickford, who opened a
weeks engagement at the Spencer
Square today in Little Lord Faun-
leroy" declares that she would
like to drop her curls and be a
grown-up film lady, although she is
recognized as the greatest define
ator Of cid life upon the screen.
mot that l am dissatisfied with
my child roles" said Miss Pickford,
''for / love them dearly, but / feel
that as ceIluloid kiddie / am
somewhat bound down by limita-
tions. OF course there is nothing
finer than interpreting child life.
1t is a field rich in heart interest
and human appeal. And at the
same time it is the kind Of work
that clean and wholesome and sat
isfying. But all my life l have
wanted to do something equally as
good in a grown-up part"
Ever since she began her career
as an actress, Mary Pickford has
been cast as kiddie or at least as
a girl in her early teens. The pub
lie has come to regard her as the
eternal little girl of the screen, for
she never seems to grow a day
older despite the fact that she has
been appearing in child parts for
almost II years.
IF / play these roles WELL" said
Little Mary" ''it is. probably be-
cause | never had a childhood of my
own. You might say that l was
grown up at the age of five, for
that was when / went on the stage.
AS a child actress l appeared in
road shows, travelling about the
country almost constantly.
couldn't play on trains because 1
had to study, and l couldn't play in
hotels or theatres because it made
too much noise. So l take great de-
light in enjoying my childhood now,
in my work before the camera.
And in addition to this" she con-
tinued, 81 dearly love children
They interest me very much, and of
course l study them closely. All
their little pranks, all their antics,
and the cute things they say. These
i try to reflect in my presentation
of the little girl character upon the
screen. The fact that / am so
to portray these parts. / am four
feet eleven inches tall with my
shoes off, and weigh one hundred
pounds.
Miss Pickford said that she has
always had an ambition to be an
emotional actress, only the public is
reluctant to accept her as such.
Now that l am a producer as
well as an actress" she explained,
81 quite naturally have to take into
consideration what is good business
and what is not, and for me it is
good business to be a little girl in
spite OF ambitions.
Some day l hope it will be diff
ferent- 1 should like very much to
try to contribute something else to
I the art of the photoplay, even if l
j could do it only once successfully;
If l could only convey that simple,
sincere message of childhood as a
grown-up woman So Mr.. and
Mrs. Public and all the dear little
Publics, please someday let me
grow up, just for once"
