GIRL DOES RISKY STUNTS
IN "SUBMARINE PIRATES"
Juanita Hansen, star of th Ameri
can serial, "The Secret of a Sub
marine," is called upon to do mighty
risky "stunts" in the picture, but by
so doing she is winning the gratitude
of George Sargent, who is directing
the big patriotic picture. Juanta is
very plucky, and her work already is
bringing her many letters from ad
mirers of her fine performances. The
serial is due to make her well known
throughout the country.
MOVIES AND VAUDEVILLE

men," or "Throwing tha Bull."
Francis Ford and Grace Cunard,
.lirerted and taken the lead
ing parts in the big serials produced
so successfully for the Universal, are
again in charge of the big "U" serial,
"Peg O' the Ring." The popular
couple began work again this week,
starting with the sixth episode, at
which point they had arrived in the
thrillinor circus story when the diffi
culties arose which temporarily
severed their connection with Univer
sal. Since that time many rumors
were heard concerning the making of
the serial, but the various proposals
all were finally rejected by the com
pany, and the two star reinstated.
They have their own studio now at
Cower and Sunset streets, Hollywood,
and work entirely separately from the
Universal city studio.
Cleo Madison, Universal leading
woman directress, has received many
compliments for the fine piece of
work she did in "Her Bitter Cup,"
which she recently produced. In the
picture she takes the role of a woman
who sacrifices her honor to be of as
sistance to her poor, down-trodden
friends. In it there is much oppor
tunity for eii.otional work, and Miss
Madison gave a finished, artistic per
formance. Kathleen Kerrigan wrote
the scenario.
In "The Emissary," which Miss
Madison is working, she develops a
strong story of a woman wrongfully
shut tn an insane asylum, who falls
in love with the physician who be
friends her.
Antrim Short, clever juvenile at (lie
Universial studio, is a real boy. When
he is not taking part in a western
drama or being featured in a boy's
play, he enjoys most going fishing or
spending his days among his athletic
collection. Antrim, who lives with his
mother and sister, Gertrude, both of
whom arc in the. pictures, has a reg
ular youngster's room. School and
college banners decorate the walls
and he has cameras, guns, boxing
gloves, fishing rods and other para
phernalia dear to a younth's heart
Antrim, who is the only boy in stock
at Universal, also prizes highly the
many signed photographs on his walls
of the noted artists with whom he ha
played.
Myrtle Stedman, the accomplished
star of the Pallas films, has completed
her work in "The American Beauty."
Her part was one of the best she has
ever had, and certainly it was one of

Now that the "Mary Page" serial is
completed, Henry B. Walthall again
will be seen in F.ssanay feature films
for which his friends and admirer,
will be profoundly thankful. The
F.ssanay forces are preparing some
big themes for him. Despite his re
cent court experiences while success
fully defending the Balboa $20,rW
suit against him, Walthall enjoyed hi
trip to Los Angeles and returned
ready for another seige of work.
Ollie Kirkby, the rlvacloua heroine
of "The Social Pirates" and known
wherever the Kalem serial it shown,
still laughs now and then at the
blunder made by a visitor of the
Kalem studio when Ollie was just
providing "atmosphere." The blun
derer, a gushing tpe of woman, ap
proached Miss Kirkby one day and
began praising her performance in a
picture she mentioned:
"My dear," she said, "you were
positively charming. Your work at
so-and-so was fine. So different from
that of the other young women who
supported you."
Miss Kirkby struggled to conceal
her humiliation and wounded feelings.
Why? Just because the woman had
made a mistake, and praising the work
of another actress, criticised that of
Ollie Kirkby. But no one could make
nat Kind of a mistake now that Miss
Kirkby is rapidly rising to still higher
prominence as a Buccaneer.
