screen actresses, owes 1t to lounging
around the Griffith studios in New
York.
She was fourteen years Of age and
was waiting for her mother in the
studio, when d. w. Griffith saw her
and was impressed. He stopped to
inquire her name. and upon learning
that she was the daughter of one of
the cast, asked her to see him the
next day. Shortly afterwards she
did her first part in mob scene.
This was her initial experience as an
actress, as she never had been on the
stage before. Seven months passed
without her working again. Then
Pauline gave an admirable character
ization.
From that day she has played i'm
portant roles in many notable
pictures. Her latest one is 1.-THE
Little Church Around the Corner"
a Warner Brothers classic of the
screen, showing at the Opera House
today and tomorrow. This is a
screen adaptation from Charles
Blaney's wcll-known stage success.
She has the part of Hetty, the
little blind girl who RECEIVERS sight
through miracle performed by
David Graham, a young romantic
social worker among the miners.
In the cast are Claire Windsor,
Kenneth Harlan, Hobart Bosworth,
Walter Long. Alec Francis, George
Cooper Margaret Seldom, Winter
Hall and Cyril Chadwick. William
Setter directed.

HALF POPULATION IN CITIES
Census Of 1920 Shows That the World
War Caused Men to Leave.
Rural Districts.

BY reason Of the restrictions placed
upon immigration 1t makes 1t neces-
sary for us to look to our overcrowd-
ed cities for men to till our old and
new farms. These men cannot be in
duced to leave their old life unless
there Is present the community life
which, as city dweller, they enjoy.
One of the results of the World
war was the exodus Of men from the
soil to the city, and for the first time
in the history of our country the 1920
census revealed the fact that more
than half the total population was
resident in cities. Within the last
year or so, however, there has been
some indication Of back to the
soil' movement ...
The total land area OF our country
Is 1903 million acres, Of which about
one-half Is In farms, but OF this farm
area only about one-eighth is what Is
known as improved farm land. About
1000 million acres Of our land area
may be classed as untitled for profit

reasons, insufficient rainfall, stony
