PREJUDICE AGAINST U. S. DISCUSSED BY URUGUAYAN MINISTER (By Associated Press) MONTEVIDEO, Feb. 28 The United States should not only be right In its ' conduct toward South and Central American republics. - but should seem to be right, Dr. Juan A. Buero. foreign minister of Uruguay, told North American correspondents Jn an interview the other day. Dr. Buero made this statement when asked by the correspondents concerning the prejudice reported to exist in South America against the United States because of .actions taken at various times in regulating the affairs of some of the less stable republics . in the tropic zone. Agitators are Active. "Uruguay," he replied, "thoroughly understands the United States and the reasons for its actions. However, some of the nations that have had difficulties with the United States may not understand the North American position. Furthermore, there are a number of agitators throughout South America willing to play upon the minds of the people to influence them against North America and make them believe that "the great northern republio is actuated by a spirit of aggression. "Therefore permit me to suggest in the interest of American solidarity and universal good will among American republics that the United States not only be' but seem to be right in its dealings with South and Central American republics. The facts and the appearances should coincide." Discussing the League of Nations, Dr. Buero declared that without North ' America it could not be a success. It could not do without the physical, moral and financial support of that nation, ho said. Mary Pickford at Grace Charch Tuesday Evening "The Heart of the Hills," starring Mary Pickford, will be the feature at Grace church community night Tuesday evening. This promises to be one of the very best things put on at Grace church since these popular entertainments began. The house is filled at each showing and about 200 remain to play down stairs, while the children are entertained in the main auditorium by moving pictures and other forms of entertainment. "Edgar the Explorer" will be the Booth Tarkington special showed immediately following the "Heart of the Hills."
The Theatres I
WASHINGTON While men folks no doubt will visit the Marcus Show of J 920, during its engagement at the Washington, March 3, to see what the myriad of costumes have in them their female companions will with equally as little question go into ecstasies over the superb sartorial creations themselves. Misses Bee Winsome, Ruth Elmore, Charlotte Allen, Florence Lawrence, Edna Quirk, Lulu Swan, Mile. Loletta. and ; the famods Marcus Peaches promise to display somewhat over a thousand fctunning habiliments, ranging from the ultra gorgeous and enveloping effect of gold and silver worn by Miss Winsome in the prologue to the scanty
ripples of light which protect the votaries of the goddess in "Birth of Venus." Over $100,000.00 has been expended in making the Marcus Show an exhibition of supreme opulence, transcending any previous effort at stage investiture. Full three quarters of this cast sum found its way to the master modistes of New York and Paris. Miss Winsome alone wears nine dif-. ferent creations. Her orchid dress is a Parisian importation of hand painted design. Brides past and to be will delight in Miss Winsome's delicate trousseau revealed in "Goodbye, Bachelor Days." Miss Winsome's rival for stunning display is Miss Elmore, whose gowns make one wonder little at the Marcus outlay for feminine decoration. MURRETTE The wave of public interest in the occult now sweeping the country is expected to contribute much to the success of "Unseen Forces," a gripping mystery story which has been pictured by S'dney Franklin and which is now showing at the Murrette-Theatre, opening for an engagement of three days. The- story centers around a girl possessed of uncanny powers. From a sheltered, naive country girl she becomes a popular medium for New York's elite. In this role will be seen Sylvia Breamer, and the cast includes Conrad Nagle, Rosemary Thelby, Sam De Grasse, Robert Cain and Edward Martindel. The production is Sidney Franklin's initial -Mayflower release for Associated First National Pictures, Inc.

Kansas illustrates how low a level to which Industry dropped. He Btates that when M. E.

The senator states that after the freight, war tax, storage, commission and Insurance were paid by Haskins he had $11.40 coming for his wool, but the sweater and express charges came to $15.15. And it takes only atpound of wool to make a sweater. . As the account stands Haskins owes the commission broker $3.75 and -be has $4 more to pay for the shearing.
chapel Saturday night, March 26. The
club has chosen the novel plan of giving three short playlets of a light nature instead of the usual custom of giving a longer play. Three plays selected are all Bhort comedies by some of the best known writers of short plays. Lady Gregorys play, "The Workhouse Ward," which has been chosen as one of the productions is intended to give those Of the local thesbians of Irish ancestry, a chanca to perform. "Suppressed Desires," a freudina comedy in two scenes by Susan Glaspell and George Cram Cook is especially well suited for amateur production. It was first given by the Proviheeton Players of Provinceton, Mass., of which Mr. Cook is director. During the past year it has been given twice in Richmond by local talent. The third of the plays, "Six Who Pass While the Lentils Boil," by Stuart Walker, is a very unique playlet. It is one of Mr. Walker's famous portmanteau plays. Mr. Walker is well known to many local people, having for the past two years managed a company of flayers at an Indianapolis theatre. The cast of characters follows: "Six Who Pass While the Lentis Boil" The Boy , Orvil Miles The Queen Margaret Newsom The Mine Dewey Bookout The Milkmaid Amelia Rarick
yet with their native French ingenuity
they were able to "put across" the many amusing situations which arise in the play. The comedy Is a short representation of the familiar servant problem, and has been a favorite in the "little theatres" in Paris. Because of the fact that these French people have been in America a short time and understand little of the English language, they feel a special interest in Le Cercle Francais, whose purpose it is to study, as an organization, the language and characteristics of the French people. - At the close of the play, the club terminated the formal program by singing the Marsaillaise. An informal timefollowefl, in which the members of tne club became acquainted with M. Lutain and Mesdames Carman and Russell, and drank to their health with imaginary French wine American punch. j

First there is Jennie Lee, known throughout filmdom as the grand old lady of the screen, and little Christine Howard, aged three months, who is making his first bow, or pucker, before an audience. Jennie Lee, who is almost seventy years old, probably one of the finest actresses of the animated sheet. Going on the stage in her early youth, she played all the famous stars of the American stage, such as John McCullough, Joseph Jefferson. Edwin Booth, Mme. Modjeska and Fannie Davenport. She played in dramatic stock in almost every important city in America, and when the films were in their infancy she was tho first of the little group of legitimate players who realized the coming importance of the screen drama. She was one of the old Biograph players under David Griffith's direction, and when that producer picked his cast for "The Birth of a Nation" Miss Lee was selected for Ihe role of the old mammy. In "The Secret Gift" she plays the part oj Aunt Sophia splendid effect. The littlest of the cast. Christine, was brought to the studio by her mother on two successive days and played her part to the complete satisfaction of the director. She was fondled and petted, she coo-ed and goo-goo-ed and won her way into the hearts of the older folks in the company.
