I can not forbear replying to
your note this moment received,
Miss Beadnell, because you really
seem to have made two mistakes.
In the first place you do not ex-
actly understand the nature of
my feelings with regard to your
alleged communications to Mary
A(nne) Leigh, and in the next
you certainly totally and entirely
misunderstood my feelings with
regard to her-that you could sup
pose, as you clearly do lthat is to
say if the subject is worth
thought to yOu, that I have ever
really thought of M. A. L. in any
other than my old way you are
mistaken. That she has for some
reason and to suit her own pur-
poses, of late thrown herself in
my way, could plainly see, and
know it was noticed by others.
For instance on the night of the
play, after we went up stairs
could not get rid of her. God
knows that l have no pleasure in
speaking to her or any girl living,
and never had. May 1 say that
you have been the sole exception?
Kind words and winning looks"
have done much, much with me
but not from her-unkind words
and cold looks, however, have done
much, much more. That 1 have
been the subject of both from you
as your will altered and your
pleasure changed, I know we'll
and so think must you. I have
often said before, and 1 say again,
l have borne more from you than
1 do believe any creature breath
ing ever bore from woman be-
fore. The slightest hint, how
ever, even now of change or trans
fer Of feeling I can not bear and
do not deserve.

TURNS TRAGEDY
into FARCE IN
SCENE FILMING
The Private Life of Henry
VIII Is Handled in
Humorous Vein

One of the most cleverly staged
scenes in The Private Life Of
Henry VIII current at the Cap
itol Theatre, is that of the exc
cution of Anne Boleyn, the second
wife of Eng.and's ama.ory Tudor.
While tragedy for Anne, the cut
ting off of her lovely head is made
comedy for the audience through
the handling of the mob scenes
and the scenes within the castle,
where the King is preparing for
a marriage to Jane SEYMOUR as
soon as Anne is dead. f
Merle Olson, who plays the
Queen, bears a facial likeness to
portraits of the Inflated Anne.
This resemblance is, of course
greatly enhanced by the historical
accuracy of her gown and jewelry,
even to the necklace with the PEN
dant initial "B" in large matched
pearls. asa .f
History records that French
ex2cue,oner was imported from Ca
lais for the grim task. That the
Importation was resented by the
English executioners is shown in
the picture, in scene that brings
grim smiles as they harangue over
the fine points of human butch
cry while sharpening the long knife
on huge grindstone.
Though the subject of the picture
is historical, its treatment is hu-
morous, gay and insouciant, with
Charles Laughton giving a superb
portrait of England's merrie mon
arch with four of his six wives
The direction is in Alexander Kor-
da's best manner.

But adding to the nations "first
home" is a more delicate problem
than most citizens will have, fol-
in many respects the White House
is untouchable. 1t belongs to the
people. They love it. They want
it to remain substantially as it is
as has been demonstrated in past
years when suggestions have been
made for materially altering its
scheme.
From the time OF its conception
in the brain of James Hoban, al
most century and a half ago
the White House has been planned
not only with regard for its own
proportions, but also in keeping
with the whole Washington scene
= Architects of genius planned

House in its mall recommending spot
The Fine Arts Commission, guar
dian of its beauty of line and
structure, has decreed against any
obvious enlarging.
Yard Filled In
Through a design developed by
Eric Gugler, consulting architect,
the necessary added space will be
obtained by filling in a lattice-en-
closed yard adjacent to the old
laundry. once used for drying of
clothes; and by building a ''pent
house" and a sunken court.
The Fine Arts Commission in
adopting this plan abandoned one
which would have put the addition
on the rear Of the house, cutting
off view of the south portico from
the State, War and Navy build
ing to the west.
With it will come many inno-
vations, such as conditioning
throughout.
The old black door," now fast
disappearing fro mthe homes of
America, will be banished. In its
stead will come the garden terrace,
for America has learned to swing
its emphasis of day-by- day living
away from the front entrance to
the cool comfort of garden vistas.
And this will involve merely the
extension Of portico.

on the rose garden, will be the Of

HELENA, Mont, July 19.-The
face Of John e. Erickson will be
missing from the Senate when 1t
convenes for the next term, it
was certain today, as returns
from nearly all precincts placed
him third in the race for the
Democratic nomination for the
senatorial short term.
In O field of six Mr.. Erickson
was trailing James E. Murray, OF
Butte, who has a considerable
lead, and James F. Conner, of
Livingston. Mr.. Murray is expect
ed to win by at least 1000 votes,
with approximately $4,000 votes
being cast.
Senator Burton K. Wheeler,
senior Senator from Montana, was
far in the lead of his only op-
ponent, Bert Replogle. He will be
opposed by George Bourquin, a Re-
publican Federal judge, who has
a big lead over wellington D.
Rankin.

Representatives" Joseph P. Mon
