Little Girl and Doll Bring Joy to All; Nilsson Plays Double Role in ‘Ponjola’

BY WALTER D. HICKMAN ■ - "I LITTLE girl and a doll! A What better combination than that when there is a lesson to be taught? Jane Mercer Is the girl and I think the doll’s name is Mary Ann or something like that.

You will b 6 more interested in Jane than the doll, but the child generally insists that the doU be present. You will meet Jane Mercer, her doll, Claude Gillingwater as her uncle, Frances Raymond, Robert Frazier and Jacqueline Gadsden at the Ohio this week in "A Chapter in Her Life.” It is taken from .he story, "Jewel.” This movie brings a message

GILDING WATER

of Christian Science to the screen in story form. It shows what effect science may have on the life of a child when the child is able to apply its principles to a troubled and unhappy household. The child drives error away and aids love In taking the place of hate. “A Chapter in Her Life” tells a beautiful story in a simple manner. The cast 1s not large, just two families. I admit that this pretty story, so well acted by people who know how to act instead of over-acting, appealed to mo. It is not mush, but a sound principle In the art of right living. Interest in the cast will c.-rter upon Jane Mercer, a child actress, who is “made” by her natural work In this picture. Uncle starts out with an awful grouch and a sour expression. The child causes the storm to blow away in the household. Gillingwater *s, as usual, splendid. In a short time this legitimate actor has become one of the best screen players before the American public today. The eetttings increase one’s admiration for the story. Hero is really a remarkable story. I went to the Ohio with a bad case of the blues. It was raining all day yesterday, you call. When I left the theater I was ’ eally happy. Sunday was an important day in le history of the Ohio, as anew 30,000 pipe organ was dedicated at

Nilsson plays a double role. If you look at the accompanying picture you will note her resemblance

to a man. The test of the picture ' rests upon what success Miss Nilsson Is able to Impersonate a man She does an Interesting job of it. She has another test, because it is necessary for her to give up male attire and become a woman at the very end of the picture. “Ponjola” is not the name of an island or a town but of a native drink in South Africa. There has been

some wise showmanship used in developing the story. The audience is let in on the secret that the chief “male” character is played by a woman. Many people have read the story. Something attracted the capacity house when I visited the Circle yesterday and I think that “Ponjola” was the cause. The rain of yesterday did not keep the people away from this movie. As the story is based upon the desire of a woman to save the man she loves from the evil effect of drink, I take it that "Ponjola” will be a great matinee bill. James Kirkwood plays the part of the man who drinks too much of ponjola but saves himself before It is too late. Os course there is a happy ending. You expect it and the actors deserve it. . The picture has been nicely mounted and photographed and wisely directed. The story is unusual and will appeal to the great majority of movie sane. The new musical novelty this week at the Circle is a sort of melody picture arranged for the playing of David Pesetzky, a Russian concert

Then the boy has his big part. The man is accused of robbing the bank and is jailed. Whereupon, the boy sallies forth with a shotgun and captures the bandits in a scene which is as comic as It is effective. After reuniting his boss with the banker’s daughter, he runs away from his own unromantic romance. Yes. his girl also has freckles. Admirers of Wesley Barry will like his new film, and will applaud his dramatic efforts, for he does not rely so much on his freckles to make the

F. -]- J- -l- -. Jack Hoxie Rides Fast Horses in New Film Jack Hoxie does not rely on trick photography to obtain his fast riding scenes, but it is convincingly evident that his horsemanship Is real. And he has need of a fast horse and riding ability In "Men In the Raw,” which Is playing at the Isis the first half of the week. In addition to riding, this play has an unsual plot, and the sense of it is not realized until the last of the film. Hoxie has th© role of a celebrated “liar” from Montana, and much of the action develops from a story that he is telling. And it is hard to distinguish Just which part of the story is pure imagination and which part should enter into the play. At the Isis the first half of this week.

CONVENIENCE OF TELEPHONES USE OFTEN FORGOHEN Great Organization Necessary to Produce Service Required, What a simple thing It is to lift a telephone receiver from the hook, give a number and receive connection. What a great thing It is to call the longdistance operator and through her connection hear across thousands of Intervening miles, the vibrant tones of a long absent friend. What a really great thing It is to call for help In time of distress, succor In time of sickness by means of this little Instrument. The telephone —the only medium for transmission of the human voice. The impatience sometimes manifested by a business man when be Is trying to telephone a prospective customer would be quickly dispelled were he to pentrate the space between his desk and the great switchboard where his call goes in, and see the businesslike way with which It Is received. If any one Imagines that the girls who work on an exchange are an undisciplined, giggly bunch who powder their noses and chat about the latest dance steps between calls, he !s very much mistaken. High up above tho noise and confusion of the street, this company has fitted up recreation rooms for the en--oyment of the 1,350 girls who work there. A large, comfortable room, attractively furnished with comfortable chairs and couches enables the girls to spend their hours of leisure amidst delightful and restful surroundings. If the operators care to. they may dance, as a phonograph and tdano are at their disposal. Bookshelves and tables hold mag azlnes and books for those who care to read. This room Is In charge of a sweet, cordial woman who is genuinely Interested In the girls whom she mothers for a few minutes out of the day—indeed how >reat must be her capacity for moth ing, when one considers that more than 48.000 girls have been under her direction since her employ with the company. Asa part of the recreational facilities a “silent room” Is mainlined: here the girls find absolute quiet. A splendid cafeteria Is operated In the building for the employes and the food Is served to the girls at actual cost. The menus, In charge of an experienced chef, are always varied and the food is palpably prepared, thoroughly cooked and well served. BURNING OF COKE SUBSTITUTES COAL Since it has been so hard to get anthracite coal, many have taken to burning coke In their furances and stoves as It gives a more even heat and Is much cleaner than, soft coal.

generous amount of coke after the wood has started to burn well. All draft should be used in starting the fire. After the first layer of coke Is well ignited put In enough coke to fill the firepot and then change the clampers to regulate the flow of heat. To build up a very low fire it Is best to close the cold air check, open the butterfly damper and then the draft. As soon as the fire is burning well, close the butterfly damper part way as the flow of heat may then be regulated by closing or opening the cold air check. Too many have the idea that an economical fire is one with a light fire bed, but it has been proved that a deep, heavy fire bed, under proper control is the most economical in all kinds of weather. The fire pot should be filled to capacity and the amount of heat thrown out and the amount of coke used may be regulated by proper air control. During the day, the house may be kept at the desired temperature in most cases by the regulation of the cold air check, provided a thick fuel bed Is properly built up. Te coke fire requires less shaking. A thin layer of ashes should be left on the grate bars. DOWN WITH RENTS, DECLARES HANEY IN H. CIATTACK All of Us Pay Too Much for Our Homes and Apartments, Says Expert, By DR. LEWIS H. HANEY, Director Bureau of Business Research, New York University. NEW YORK, Nov. 6. —Last spring we had a buyers’ strike against high building costs. Today men are making the old suit or coat do and the manufacturers of men’s clothing are up against a serious problem as a result. Cotton textiles have not been moving well because of high prices based on scarce cotton. The cost of living is rising. I conclude that all this diminished purchasing power has much to do with the business set-back this year. In our domestic affairs this situation Is one of the big problems of the future. Probably the next down swing in business will come about through the need of readjusting the cost of living to the Income of the average American citizen. It costs something like 63 per cent more to live now than In 1914. How many of us middle class folk are getting that much more income? The big difficulty lies in the rent Item. All of us pay too much for rent. It used to be figured the average family should spend about 15 per cent of Its Income for rent. How many people get by on that percentage these days? I venture to say that few families In cities spend less than 25 per cent. The nation’s rent bill la too big. Part of the trouble Is due to the Increase In the proportion of olty dwellers, for now over 51 per cent of us live In towns and cities against 48 per cent in 1910 and 30 per cent In 1880. The rush to cities has made living room congested and the demand for buildings has Increased their oost. During the war while we were building the ships and cantonments, which are now rusting and rotting away, we quit building houses, and the supply of buildings got so far behind that It has been estimated that It will take ten years to catch up.
