"PHOTO PIAY. OFFERING J FOR TODAY
MARY MACLAREN has at last
the role which gives her op
portunity of being really
Mary. In "The Unpainted Woman,"
which opens a three-day engage
ment at the Brandeis today, Miss
MacLaren, in the character of Gud
run Trygaveson, portrays a whole
some, normal, healthy girl with'
brims and the typical American
woman's resourcefulness to take
care of herself under the most diffi
cult circumstances.
The scene of "The Unpainted
Woman" is laid in a small town and
the action centers about so-called
smalltown aristocracy and its bitter
class barriers. -
A man's fight with himself for
mastery and control of his arch en
emy, drink, is one of the strong
punches in the story.
Thurston Hall supports Mips Mac
Laren as leading man. LitfTe Mick
ey Moore is in the kiddie role. Oth
ers in the cast are David Butler,
Laura Lavarnie. Fritzie Ridtrewav.
Willard Louis. Carl Stockdale andJ
Lydta Yeamans litus.
A circus, a canal and a canal
boat form the settings for Mar
guerite Clark's beauty and talent in
"Still Waters," which will be shown
at the Muse theater Thursday.
"Still Waters," which is a rare com
bination of pastoral romance, rural
comedy and thrilling drama, was
written especially for Miss Clark by
Edith Barnard Delano, the well
known novelist. In it the diminu
tive star has abundant opportunities
for the disolav of her remarkable
versatility.
High prices for stars is not the
only thing entering into the cost of
the making of "Daddy Longlegs,"
the Mary Pickford picture now at
the Strand. Miss Pickford has a
canceled check for $40,000, the
price she paid for the picture rights
to the story.
Some time ago Evelyn Nesbit, ob
serving the trouble directors experi
enced in getting the proper kind of
furniture for certain sets, took up
the study of period furniture so she
could aid in this matter. As a re
sult, most of the period furniture
used in "My Little Sister," now .t
the bun theater, was chosen by Miss
Nesbit.

Love scenes in photoplays have
'become very much a matter of
"Three steps forward, two to the
side, meet, clinch, kiss for three feet
and fade out," and the variation is
largely in the length of the kiss and
the number of steps.
So the announcement of a new
love scene, in the David Wark Grif
fith picture, "The Girl Who Stayed
at Home," is refreshing if nothing
else. Mr. Griffith is a master at do
ingold things in new ways, so it is
not surprising that he should piny
a love scene in a way no one ehe
has ever thought of. "The Girl Who
Stayed at Home" is to be at the
Rialto the remainder of this week.

employes merely have been misled
and we want to treat them with the
utmost fairness by permitting them
to return and resume work with
their former .standings," said E. W.
Collins, general superintendent of
the company in Chicago. N . -
He added that many workers al
ready had returned and that the
company was operating on a normal
basis.
, After a conference union officials
stated that the action of the Postal
Telegraph company will have no
bearing on the strike.
"We are fighting for the right of
collective bargaining, the same right
that the postmaster general extend
ed to electrical workers," said S. J.
Konenkamp, president of the Teleg
raphers' union. He added latest re
ports showed more workers were
idle than at any time since the strike
started.
Telegraph company officials as
serted th"it business was not being
delayed noticeably in any district.
