THE HILLS (By Florence Borner) I love the hills, the massive hills, MONDAY, MAY 2, 1921 ' Determine to Gratify Ambition Screen Star Works Solid Year on One Picture, “The Kid,” | But Satisfies Himself With Right Kind of Production. Artistic temperament must be given a new meaning. Cases of it that have [rea from time to time, among world famous genuises, grand opera singers particilarly, have always been destructive in some way. ; ‘Shows have been spoiled. Plans have been knocked awry. Fortunes have been lost. Lives have been wrecked, All by the inexplicable urge which has been called artistic tem- perament. ‘The fact that scientists have ac- cepted artistic temperament as the manifestation of emotion, which are as strangely wonderful in, their way as the physical attainments of the artists possessing such a _ tempera- ment, has caused managers to put up with it for the same reason that a circus manager has extra strong cars to transport elephants. It is a part of the game, and has to be taken into consideration in dealing with geniuses, Once in a-lifetime, however, artistic temperament is engendered by some- thing that can be put into. a form to be appreciated by the non-artistic, and then the world is enriched by a new classic of some sort, Take Charlie Chaplin as an instance. As to his genius there: can be no quest!on. Comedy ig as great an achievement as is tragedy and the man who por- trays elther better than aynone else in the world is a genius, To associate Charlie Chaplin with artistic temperament is a thing that is not generally known, but it is a fact that he recently threw away at least $1,000,000 in salary to play a dramatic role in a feature production! It was artistic temperament in the nth degree. It was at a time in his career when the sort of comedy that had made him famous was the most popular form of amusement that could be presented to the American public. Yet Chaplain for the first time in his moticn picture career was independ- ent, and he gave up an income of nearly $3,000 a day to answer the urge of artistry that had called him ever since he went into moving pictures. He spent a full year in gratifying his artistic temperament. The resuit is “The Kid,” which will be the First National attraction at the Elifige theater, beginning Monday. It is the greatest picture the ‘comedian has ever done, and absoluetly different from anything he has ever done. ‘He is still Charlie Chaplin, little hat, dinky mustache, full draped trousers, enormous shoes, half-size. cane, and all, but is a Charlie: Chaplin in- jected into a prodaction that covers both lights and shades of human iife. | The humor is there; the comedy 13 present; but it is not the trick comedy that made him famous. — It. is the natural comedy and humor arising from the situatic logically throughout the six reels joyous laughter and enrertainineat which constitute “The Kid." = | Remarkable Remarks | S —— THE, present income tax burdea creates a nation of liars.—Dr. Charles Forty-four years ago Anna Katharine Green| was known only to a few neighbors in Buffalo, N. ¥., as a woman hard pressed with family cares) and sickness.

Arch- ‘ ibold, a tarmer living near this place, is the owner of a five-legged calf, one able.” Tardieu is one of the five men who knew everything that went on at the peace conference... The others were Wilson, House, Lloyd George and Cle- menceau. He formerly was French high commissioner to the United States, member of tle cabinet and delegate of the French republic to the peace conference. e “If you would know of those fateful (ou WERE SO Stow ft Hav To DO ALL THE CouRTING § E tion he built up. i “Let me say right here,” Mr. Piez recently as- serted, “as strongly and emphatically as it can be. said, that the foundation of all success is moral. courage.” ‘i BONDS AT PAR A good many well-intentioned people seem ag- grieved because the government has not maintain- ed Liberty bonds at par.

Tt seems to spring from that style oning ch thinks that Government All it need to do is to pass a law or make a ruling and presto!—the thing is done. But are the values maintained in that way? If a pool wishes to bull a stock, it must take all the stock of that issue which is offered, must it not? Then one way to maintain Liberty bonds at par would be for the Treasury to buy in at par all bonds which were offered to it: Assuming that. i the government has the money (which it hasn't), tary Hughes points out that there is no blockade, all restrictions on direct trade with Russia hav- ing been removed last July. Thare is no barrier whatever and anybody who wants to take a gamb- ‘ling chance in the matter of payment can ship anything there. ; The meaning of all th:s ‘s that Russia is her own economic cnemy. She has destroyed her own credit and her own resources, and until the sys- tem of government ovcr there is changed there will be no remedy. The problem is how to fill the great vacuum, how to bring about order in the chaos that now prevails throughout that vast area formerly known as the Russian empire. Secretary Hughes’ note will do much to correct a false impression that prevails in some quarters that the United States is active in hostility to the’ soviet government. It is simply quiescent. It opens the doors to trade. It declines to establish official relations, it is true, but for this there is the best of reason.
