JEFFERIS TELLS
F PLANS FOR
NEXTCOIJGRESS
Congressman-elect Returns
From Washington; Attended
Republican Caucus; Finds
Air of Harmony.
Congressman-Elect A. V. JclTeris
returned yesterday from Washing
ton, D, C, where he looked over the
scenes of his labors for the next
two years. He, like all other con-fircsMiien-elect,
hecomes a congress
man at noon today, March 4.
' I met many men whom I knew
and many others whom I didn't
know." said Mr. JetTeris. "The re
publican caucus was very interest
ing Mr. Gillctt, who was chosen
speaker of the house, is a man who
is well-liked and who has the fac
ulty of gcttting things done. So
1 think the house will put through
a hi sr grist in the next session.
"There was a general air of har
mony in the party camp, which
speaks promisingly for republican
accomplishment in the next con
gress. Met Old Friends.
"I met some of my old college
friends who are now in congress.
Among these are Congressman 'Dan'
Anthony of Kansas and 'Jim' Good
of Iowa."
Mr. Jefferis met his predecessor.
Congressman C. O. Lobeck and
shook hands with him. Mr. Lobeck,
he says, will return to Omaha with
in a week and engage in the land
business.
The congressman-elect is ambi
tious to be placed on the committee
on military affairs. His next pref
erence is the committee on public
roads.
Appointing of Committees.
"Most people seem to be tinder
the impression still that the speaker
of the house appoints the commit
tees," he said. "Hut this is not so.
Committees are appointed by a
special 'committee on committees,'
made up of a member from each
state.
"1 had my office picked out in the
congressional office building but one
of the re-elected members, who
have first choice, selected it. I en
joyed every minute of my week in
Washington and look forward to my
work there with much pleasure."
Mr. Jefferis said he has not yet
decided whom he will appoint his
secretary. Several young men are
in line for the position.

MARCELLE ROUSSILLON,
who is seen in support of
Florence Reed in the latest
United Picture Theaters Inc. six
reel feature, "The Call of The
Heart," hails from the Palais Roy
al, Paris, and coming to this country
to play a special engagement jut
prior to the war, found herself un
able to return because of military
restrictions, barring women from
passports. Mile Roussillon set to
learning English and with such suc
cess that she was engaged in sup
port of Ethel Rarrymore at the Em
pire theater, New York. Then fol
lowed her appearance in "The Call
of The Heart."
Mary MacLaren will be seen in a
wardrobe of gorgeous sartorial crea
tions in her new special feature,
"Whose Widow" which Directress
Ida May Park has just finished at
Universal. One of the most stun
ning gowns worn by Miss MacLaren
is a black satin dress with an, over
drape of gold lace.
Harry Harvey has started work on
''The Girl Sheriff," a universal two
reel western drama, that savors of
the unique. Helen Gibson plays the
title role with Pete Morrison in the
leading masculine role and Vester
l'egg as the "heavy."
Santa Claus received a fervent
prayer from Priscilla Dean, Univer
sal star, for a story in which she
could wear evening gowns, or at
least a tailored suit of recent mode,
but, apparently, he must have turned
a deaf ear, for her next production,
tentatively entitled "Raggedy Ann,"
will again disclose Miss Dean in tat
tered togs.
Elinor Fair's first part with the
Fox company is with Albert Ray,
and a wonderfully attractive couple
they should make. Elinor has ac
quired some beautiful frocks, as she
believes in dressing her parts to the
utmost.
Rupert Julian has started work on
a Universal six-reel super-production,
"The Fire Flingers," the story
of which was taken from William J.
Neidig's Saturday Evening Post
novel. Julian himself is playing the
featured role in this cinema and has
an exceptionally fine supporting
cast, including Fay Tincher. Mar
garet Green, diaries Hill Mail?s,
Will JclTeris and Clyde Fillmore.
Director Charles Ciblyn assem
bled a wonderfully strong support
ing cast for the star, Olive Thomas,
