A wife is apt to become un- duly sentimental and sympathetic and permit herself to be taken for granted. This is a vast mistake.

His parents were Danish, and his father, a giant of a mgn, 7 feet tall and weighing 32 pounds, was re- nowned in the early days of Utah for feats of physical power. It was sald he could lift 1,000 pounds on his back. The birthplace of Cruze was near zden, Utah. The year was 1884. The lure of the tent show called him away from his home at the age of 16. The particular show he was with ended its tour in San Francisco. ('ruze's roommate then was a young actor named Stevens. At last the funds of both gave out at once. Stevens pawned his watch and sent a telegram, asking work, to’ Luke Cosgrave, manager of a_ small stock company in Boise. He did not get a reply. So he wired another company, was hired and left town. The day after he left came a mes- sage from Cosgrave to Stevens asking him to come to Bolse and furnishing transportation. Posing as Stevens, Cruze obtained the transportation and went to Boise. Cosgrave hired him, and he made a splendid leading man. That was in 1901, After the Boise engagement Cruze decided to branch out for himself. He organized a small stock eompany and toured Utah and Idaho. He then or- ganized a more pretentious company to play in larger theaters and offered Cosgrave, a veteran dramatic pro- ducer, a half interest. Thus started fon which has not ended. ras Cosgrave who played the de- lghtful ¢ cter*of Old Man Prouty in Cruze's comedy for Paramount, “Welcome Home."” In 1906 ambition again stirred Cruze.

Her great burning eyes, unfathomable as the smile of Mona Lisa, still hint at age-old secrets they will never fully reveal. And yet her exotic beauty, it is said, seems to have been toned with an intangible spir- ituelle quality. She seems somehow to have found the common denominator of human- ity. eat Director. cautious, refused. interest and went. He played small parts for a time. His work attracted the attentlon of: David Belasco, who next season cast him in the leading role in “The Heart of Maryland.” During the Summer lay-off he went to the old Pathe studio in New York City and obtained small bits from time to time, ‘Later he played the part of the half-breed in “The’Octa- roon,”” a tremendously successful play. James Cruze definitely cast his lot with the movies in 1908 as leading man, first for Pathe and later for the old Tannhouser company at New. Rochelle, N. Y. His first big effort Was that of the hero in “The Million Dollar’ Mystery.” Those were the happy-go-lucky days of filmdom. ‘While working in Florida once with Tannhouser Cruze and his company made 7, pictures in 17 days. They made one complete picture between 6 a.m. and 1 p.m. . In 1916 Jesse L. Lasky, who-had just organized the company bearing his name, negotigted with Cruze to come West to play a famous part. The plans fell through,. but Cruze came West anyway. - When he ar- rived he talked the Lasky organiza- tion into hiring him as a director. That was just nine years ago. He took the country by storm with “The Covered Wagon.” Then he made & string of big successes, among them “Hollywood,” “Ruggles of Red Gap,” “Merton of the Movies,” “The Fighting Coward,” “The Enemy Sex,"” “The City That Never Sleeps,” ‘‘Beg- gar on Horseback,” “The Goose Hangs High,” “Welcome Home, “Marry Me"” and others. He fs now filming for Paramount “The Pony Express,” the romantic story of 1860 of an amazing achieve- ment of men and horses in regularly spanning half a continent in 10 days. Tt is a story laid against the pano- ramic background of the old frontier just before the outbreak of the Civil War. - Cruze sold out his “Greater Laugh Season™ CHRISTIE announces a full schedule of two-reel comedies now be produced in Hollywood, the first of which will reach the first- run screens in August during greater movie season.

Mr. Davis, himself, was ab- sent, having been commissioned to play at the Vanderbilt wedding in New York, but before leaving he left ample representation to care for the players' welfare. When Leneta Lane leaves the Na- tional Players early in September, her forwarding address most likely will be New Orleans, La. She has re- ceived a flattering bid for her serv ices in the quaint city and will prob- ably accept, though she is holding in abeyance an offer from a Broadway producer for a featured role in one of his forthcoming plays. The New York Herald-Tribune last weels_paid tribute to the abilities of the National Theater Players. Ward Morehouse, dramatig editor of that paper, spent his oné night in Wash- ington watching a performance at the National and, on arriving back at his desk, wrote a laudatery article on the troupe and on the business they have been attracting. ‘While the city newspaper offered fine co-operation, it is said the jeal- ousy of rival theater managements promise to break up the “Greater Movie Season” in Omah: ATIONA $1.10,85¢c & 50c NATIONAL THEATER PLAYER: By MAX “Nothing like it has been seen on the New York Stage.’'— N.

Mr. Bol- ton, author of “Bally’”; “Adam and Eva” and “Polly, With a Pgst,” has themed his latest product on the the- ory of wages for wives. The love of money is the root of all evil, sages and philosophers have been teliing us for years. Mr. Bolton, on the other hand, points out, rather friv- olously, it is true, that poverty is oft. times a thorny vine that begets pois- onous branches. The rich little poor wife, pampered, petted and penniless, is not unknown to history or cotemporary life. She is leglon, this wife whose assets are ;. u cook-stove, carpet-sweeper abies. v.” asks Mr. Bolton,” shouldn't she have her own bank account.

Why, in other words, shouldn’t she be financially indepen: dent of the man whose children she bears and whose welfare her life is wrapped up in’ “Chicken Feed” isn't a_ponderous study of the economics of marriage. 1t does contain truths that startle, but the whole is clothed in a delightful vein-of wit and humor.
