faces, and mean to use two of these winners in my next picture. The role will not be an important one to start, but if they show progress-well, the final outcome rests with them.
 Initiating Is Bad.
 As you know. very often new star is made over night. The reason Is just that same screen personality, that face when seen upon the screen which will be remembered. Not be- cause she or he looks or resembles someone else but because of their own self The fact that they look like someone else is like an imita- ton. It does not mean anything if you look like Mary Pickford. We have her. and she is here to stay for a long time. The individual that can stand upon his or her own ground and just be themselves is the more preferable.
 Very often the so-called good look ing girl does not screen well, while the most ordinary looking girl will screen wonderfully Of course there are exceptions, and this is one. But the fact remains, no one can really tell just how another will screen, no matter the length of service or eXpe- rience that one has in screen acting That is the req son 1 look for person. NAAtSf os tiaA VIII anu llluSl register before the eagle eye of that camera and once it registers there will sure ly register with the audience. One must remember that on the screen the subject is enlarged perhaps d hundredfold in closeup and that any imperfection will show plainly Another thing to consider IS the eff feet of lighting, which plays such an important part in the production of pictures. If one has lines that do not blend With that strong light. bad smile or what not it is bound to show on that screen.

 As I close again I want to say. not good-by to The Age Herald but just au revoir.

Being free, fearless and independent has become
safe suddenly. In month more it will be popular.
The public is awake now and will prevent the pun
ishment of those who advocate the cause of the
people.
II special interests do not their efforts to
crush those who speak out in opposition the people
will crush the special interests
The Journal issues this warning. At this mo-
ment the people intend injustice to any one.
Those who have grown fat by favors will be safe If
they trust themselves and their futures to the good
sense Of the people But further resistance to JUS
tice means an angered electorate. No one will as
sumo responsibility for the future IL the people are
irrtated by further efforts to strange the public
will.
All we need is election Then the peo-
pie will speak in no uncertain tone. The Phantom
of the Twilight Of the Old Day. has been shown to
be phantom. No one is any longer afraid of it.
Each additional chance for the people to
speak means further evidences that the power of
the gang is broken.
The public is becoming articulate and independ-
is becoming safe.

EDITORIAL OF THE DAY
Ia TOILETTE or WISCONSIN.

81
Senator La Toilette of Wisconsin is taboo in re-
publican circles in Washington and why shouldn't
he be?
Ours is essentially government of and by par
ties. 1t should be that kind of government because
it enables the electorate to fix responsibility and
assess achievements and shortcomings in respect OF
measures and policies 1t is necessary if there is to
be carrying out of platforms and programs set be-
fore the voters in advance
AS pledge keeper and policy builder the repub-
ican majority now in congress has not been able to
function up to reasonable popular expectations be-
cause members of that party have worked so much
at cross purposes through so-caled "blocs' and
through action wherein the individual judgment was
exalted above group party judgment.
Senator La Toilette has been notorious for his
habit of wondering along politically like the
rhinoceros" He wears the label republican but in
content he is not at all republican The party
nothing to him. and he herds with bloc" only
when the "boc" happens to gather in pasture
where he is. More often than not he is found voting
with the democratic opposition and it seems to be
meat and drink to him to show his contempt for the
administration, its purposes and suggestions. BY
the very force of circumstances he becomes virtually
an impotent factor in respect of the country ana
of his own state.
Toilette shoulder and knocked it off. the admins
ration goes through with the challenge put up to
it, taking no account of the La Toilette existence
when II comes to appointments in from Wiscon-
sim If the voters Of that state will insist keep
ing political maverick in the senate, they may ex-
pect their representative will be treated as a
maverick
Seniority processes are bringing La Toilette close
to the tops of the senate committees on finance and
interstate commerce on the republican side It
would be fine state of affairs IL he should reach
one of these goals under the banner of the party
he so misrepresents. Prospects of such thing are
leading republican pilots to devise ways and means
of eliminating La Toilette through the Wisconsin
elections this year The purpose is IL possible to
bring into the fight who could win on his
merits against the incumbent-a who having
won, would be working asset to the republican
party instead of liability. 1t Is legitimate politics
If Wisconsin does not wish real republican to mate
with Mr. Lenroot In the senate, it should choose
democrat with appreciation of the value of
party solidarity.

IT'S "PEACE" DOLLAR NOW.

It seems though the word peace" in what
ever connection used is sufficient to start discus.
sion in the United States. Just now it's the peace
dollar that is being argued pro, con and several
other ways
It is declared that the coin does not stack and
it is not artistic the first objection coming from
bankers and the latter from those of esthetc bent.
But though artists may rail at the imperfecons of
the design and bank telers may lose temper in
having to pick them up when stack tumbles, the
average person will find most grievous objection
in not having enough of them Any sort of a coin
which will command dollars worth in exchange
is beautiful in the estimation of the common run
Of mankind. While various comments anent the
peace dollar will be made while it is new it will
serve its purpose just as fully as though it were
arstically perfect and would stack firmly that is
pass for 100 cents in exchange for goods. That is
the primary design in minting it,

ARTTCULATE.

Hope looms big on the horizon. The Dawn OF
the New Day" comes on apace. The public is strug-
Cling to make itself articuate. The people show
signs of speaking emphatically and right out in
meeting"
All that the people need is chance to get
their will into action. They will do the rest. All
the handicaps of mob caucuses and bad election
laws, which have been used to bind them, will fail
to restrain them. The end is definitely in sight
Popular demand is the weapon which will break
down every obstacle which political corruptonists
can erect. The imperious demand of the people Is a
force which can not be resisted
The politicians are seized with panic In their
desperation they lose their judgment. The measures
used in the latest (and think the LAST effort to
destroy the Journal because of its outspoken policy
against corruption, lacked nothing in viciousness
but was devoid of Judgment. A blind rage never
directed the delivery of an effective blow
All that is needed is a few outspoken lead
ers The Journal has blamed no one for silence up
this time Fighting the gang has not been a
pink-tea affair. The offender has stood a strong
chance Of humiliation. But all this is over now

VERSE OF TODAY
G HOS rs.

My mind is filled with wistful ghosts that hide
Behind the fabric of each passing thought
Ghosts of the songs that long dead poets wrough
Ghosts Of great loves that time and space defied
And ghosts of deeds that country's pride,
Ghosts of sweet music, tinkng faint and clear
The sentent harmonies Of yesteryear
And ghosts of high beliefs that famed and died
They hunger to come back to life again,
If only in single lovely line
Of yagrant song; if any words of mine
Should glow with vision, delicate and plain
It is the urge of these frail wraths that yearn
For one brief breath Of beauty to return.

fact was quickly ascertained that
