Demand for Better Plays Is Being Answered by Producers

By WALTER D. HICK MAS. | FT* HE demand of the public for better movie vehicles has resulted I in photoplay producers doing some real thinking. Marie Corelli, English novelist, has written some highly successful novels. She knows how to build real dramatic situations. Arrangements have been made to screen Corelli’s “Thelma,” which has had a tremendous vogue as a novel. Jane Novak will play the main character. When “Thelma" is completed Miss Novak will begin work on a movie version of the song, “The Rock of Ages.” This movie will have the services of the Novak sisters, Jane and Eva, the first time they have appeared in the same piece. As the titles suggest, these movies will belong to the better class of photoplays, if wise directors are employed.

-I- -I- -IFew More Words About Meighan It is evident Thomas Meighan has taken another step forward in the good graces of the American moviegoing public because of his work in George Ade's “Our Leading Citizen.” v This is a homespun yarn about small town people —a sort of a rural I '■ H fable. The tremen|jjJßr - jjejs ious reception of week is not due small town types. MEIGHAN 1 never have seen a■ better blending of a story with honest type acting as in this movie. h Meighan’s success as Daniel BentP'jy, a lawyer, who would rather fish than plead before a court and jury, is due to his showmanship. Meighan does not make a comic cartoon out of Dan, but puts real red blood in him. “Our Leading Citizen” tells a real story and uses honest actors in enacting the story. -I- -I- -!- On View Today The following attractions are on view today: “Seven Chances” at the Murat, vandeville and movies at the

HEALTH NORSE VISITS IN JUNE SHOWINCREASE Association Reports Show Total of 4,080 —Many Made for Children’s Aid Body. Visits made by the Public Health Nursing Association for the month of June totaled 4.080, according to a report made at a meeting of the association today. In addition, 1,569 visits were made for the Childrens* Aid Association. Seven hundred and seventeen new cases were reported in June, 208 of which were from the Childrens’ MMd. More new cases were reported June than for any other month this year because the nurses have been making more pre-natal and postnatal calls, it wa3 explained. Report More Cases Doctors have reported more cases during June than any other month. More tubercular cases were reported also, but this means, it was explatned. that more cases are asking for care, not that there is more tuberculosis. The typhoid situation is bad at this time, the report said. Eleven cases were reported during June. Much typhoid is found in Norwood, a negro district. Miss Elma Bergey reported on the progress made at the new health center at the Foreign House. The association has one room at the Foreign House which was equipped for it by Kingan and Company. Nurse Gets Acquainted Miss Hannah Stephens, nurse, has spent the last three months making the acquaintances of the district. At present thirteen foreign families are under the care of the association. Arrangements were made for five children at hospitals for tonsillectomies. The matron of the Foreign House. Mrs. Petrvitrh, has offered to act as interpreter for the association. Dr. R. A. Solomon will open a general medical clinic at the Foreign House by Aug. 1. WANTS HER MONEY BACK No Longer Willing to Wed, Sues Matchmaker. NEW YORK —Whether a professional matchmaker can be legally made to give back money paid by a young woman for a prospective husband who didn’t suit will be decided by Magistrate Thomas F. McAndrews.

Miss Frankel said Maurice didn’t like work, and that a husband who couldn’t work would be worse than no husband at all. She wants her money back.

Mountain Lion Is Not Always Hostile to Man By PROF. SI. J. ELROD. Chair of Bioioyy, University of Montana. Mountain lions are not hostile to man. Indeed, they are not only Inoffensive to man but show a very strange and remarkable instinct in his favor. There is not an instance on record where this animal has made an attack on man except perhaps in an Isolated case where a man with a pack was mistaken for a deer. There are very many instances recorded where mountain lions have befriended man in emergency. W. H. Hudson reports a South American .guacho who was thrown from his horse and suffered a broken leg. By great effort he dragged himself to a rocky eminence to escape a panther, mountain lion, which was prowling about, though It did not molest him. His terror knew no ‘bounds. Later, as it grew dusk, he heard a jaguar in the forest not far

distant. And then In the middle of an inky night he heard the roars of two animals, apparently in deadly combat. In a short time the forest was quiet so far as the battle was concerned. When he was rescued the next day his friends found the dead bodies of the twa animals In the jungle. The lion had undoubtedly defended the man against the jaguar. Men have met mountain lions and slapped them in the face. Men have lassoed the lion and ignominously dragged him into a cage, ultimately to land in the circus or the zoo. Colonel Roosevelt records following one all day, only to see it on the top of a rise in the dusk as the return to camp was made. In all cases the lion has shown a curious desire to stay near man, but never to do him harm. When a dog comes near every fibre of the lion’s body becomes hostile. He is ready for instant action, and never takes his eyes off the dog. It is then, when he is oblivious to all else, that the intrepid hunter can boldly approach and give him a death blow.
