News For e REVELATIONS By ADEL® How Katherine’s “Never Take Any- thing for Granted” Resulted in a Most Satistylng Surprise for Madge. Katherine Sonnot returned from the telephone booth from which she had sent a long distance message to the sanatorlum for drug addicts where Mrs. Allls was confined, her face grave. / “Mrs. Allis has been very seriously 111 for a week,” she said. “They only pronounced her out of danger today. And she has been closely watched since she entered, for hers s rather an unusual case. There's no possible chance of her having had anything’| to do with sending the clippings.” “Then Grace Draper must be in New York,” I exclaimed, and there was despair in my voice. I hadn't realized how much I had hoped we would find Mrs. Allis had sent me the clippings, until the impossibility of her having done 8o had been proved. Mrs. Allis, with her drug-crazed brain, her insane, revengeful feeling toward me, was infinitely to be pre- ferred as an adversary to Grace Draper, with her mad passion for my husband still consuming her. “See here, Madge Katherine's tone was incisive. “There’s something about this that’s beyond me. I think you ought to get in touch with your friend, Lillian Underwood. . She has the cleverést brain, the sanest judg- ment of anyone I know.” “But she’s out of the city,” I =aid. ‘Are you sure?” “She has been gone for over a week.” ‘But how do you know she hasn't unexpectedly returned?” / “What Colossal Luck!” “I don’t know,” I returned mechan- ically. The conviction that Grace Draper was responsible for the sinis- ter clippings seemed to have dulled my faculties. ;__“Never take anything for granted, Katherine retorted briskly. “Call her up and we'll soon know for certain.” i I went to the telephone, a tiny hope ! begotten of Katherine’s manner ! growing in my heart. And sure enough, Lillian, herself, answered the ! | telephone. % 'You blessed child she said. 'What colossal luck! Just got in, not fifteen minutes ago! o | ‘May Katherine and I come up jright away? Something has hap- j pened about which I must ask you j advice.” ; i ‘Don’t waste time asking,” Lilllan advised merrily. ‘‘Take the first taxl.” “We’ll do just that,” I returned, and within a few minutes we were belng warmly welcomed by Lillian in her wonderful brown-toned library, where Betty had just laid a little fire. “These first days of spring are pretty raw,” Lillan said in explana- tion, as she drew our chairs up be- fore the hearth. N “Tell Me Your Troubles.” Her appearance was almost enough to make me forget the trouble which had brought me to her door. Her face was glowing with exercise, and the crown of softly piled hair above it with its wonderful silver tone made a regal frame. And I looked in vain for traces of the humiliation and an- i ~——m OF A WIFE GARRISON count of her husband’s callously brutal treatment of her, and because | of the irony which had brought, Robert Savarin back into her life too late. For Lillian was masking whatever unhappiness she might hold in her, head behind a brilliant smiling coun- | tenance as in the old days when, in . her own words, she was ‘“playing the game with Harry,” and had masked , her grayish hair, her slightly aging face behind an atrocious mask of rouge and powder and hair dye, be- cause her husband, Harry Underwood, wished her to do so. But I knew also that Lillian could never be truly unhappy as long as, her little daughter Marion, from whom she had been tragically separ- ated for so long and who had but re- cently been restored, was with her. Instinctively I looked round for the little thing who was never far from her mother's side. Lillian took her with her on her trips whenever pos- sible, and employed a governess in- stead of sending the child to school. Her maternal love for Marion was the one strong passion of her life. “Where is Marion?” I asked. “Upstairs, asleep, poor little kiddie,” her mother returned, and the smile which the thought of the child always brought irradiated her face. “‘She was so tired from the journey that I had scarcely taken off her wraps and shoes and had covered her up warm 1y, before she was sound asleep, I am afraid I shouldn’t take her with me on those trips. They're too fatiguing.” Send her to me whenever you go away,” I said promptly and sincerely. I'd love to have her.” “I know it.” Lillian flashed an ef- fectionate glnce at me. “But you didn’t come here to talk about | Marion. Sit down and tell me your troubles.” Menu for Tomorrow Breakfast.

The other day I happened to be behind the scenes in a big store where a group of clerks were moving the contents of a large set of shelves and stacking them in another place. “Go through here,’ called one of the clerks who had discovered a short cut. Nobody followed him. “Come on,” he urged, “this much quicker way."” And still nobody would try it. Nor did he succeed in getting more than one or two to try his way, all the time I watched. Yet unquestionably his was the better way and would have saved them time and effort. E Why couldn’t he make them see it? Because he hadn’t the quality of leadership. The ability to lead, is a rare and wonderful quality. One Leader Would Have Welded Them Into An Efficient Force. I was once at a fire in the country where one man with the power of leadership could have organized the forces into a bucket brigade that would have saved the first house. But there was no such man in the com- There were brave men and there were energetic workers and there were plenty of “willing hands,” but no leader to weld all this into an efficient fighting force. Everyone did his bit in his own way. There were too many here, not enough there. Men ran about with buckets when they should have been organized into a coherent line, people fell over each other, and while confusion reigned, the fire burned. ‘When one tries to analyze the qual- itles that help make a man a leader it 1s hard to tell what they are. It Isn't Always the Men Who Can Talk Who Can Lead. Eloquence helps but I don't think it is supremely important. I is a in have stantly. Add chocolate, mix well, and pour into wetted mold. TALKS known very quiet men to whom every- one instinctively turned to in my crisis. I think one ingredient is self com- mand. You can't command others unless you first command Yyourself. You must know where vou are going before you try to lead others. (And vet there have been leaders who lead in the wrong direction. T suppose they must have felt so burningly sure they knew where they were going that they convinced others.) It is easier to say what qualities a leader shouldn't have than those he should. No Onc Who Gets Shrill Could Lead. You cannot imagine anyone who gets shrill in excitement possessing the power of leadership. Or anyone who whines. + donna” /“The Seven Pearls”, a new instalment | ELF OF THE FILM ~ “PAINTED MADONNA” FOX'S BIG MAGNET bill with several making up a pro- the alluring at- A double feature other short subjects gram of 15 reels is traction which Fox's theater holds out to its patrons in the two-days show which opened there yesterday. One of the features is the William Fox production, “The Painted Ma- with his latest discovery, Sonia Markova in the leading role. The second feature is Willlam 8. Hart in “The Disciple” one of his bestl known and most popular photoplays. | Besides these features is “The Warn- ing on the Wire”, ninth episode of on “The Red Ace’” and others. It is a top-notch bill, both in quality and quantity. Today is the last chance to see Mme, Markova in “The Painted Ma- donna”. Her debut in pictures under the direction of Mr. Fox has been marked with great success and popu- larity and she has firmly established herself among the patrons of FoX's as a worth-while star who is certain to have a strong personal following in al of her subsequent appearances in New Britain. Mme. Markova, prac- tically unknown today, will soon take a high place among screen stars. Her acting and her beautiful, expressive face will stamp themselves - indelibly on local motion picture followers. In “The Painted Madonna’ she goes from the sweet happy girl of the village to the whirl of New York's gayest life and then back to the soul saddened paths of a correct life, a life of helplessness to others who have suffered wrongs similar to those that marred the life of Stella Dean, the role portrayed by Mme. Markova. It is a fine, varied portrayal. The appearance of William S. Hart hals been a delight to millions of his admirers throughout the oountry, who regard him as the most forceful and sincere of motion\picture actors, and he seemed to have lost none of this great popularity when he ap- peared yesterday at Fox's in ‘“The Disciple”. He wi|l alsg appear in the picture today. He has powerful play of the far West and he plays the role of Rev. Jim Houston, the ‘Shootin’ Iron Parson”. It is a part most ac- curately suited to the virility and strength of Hart’s acting and in it he does an intense and at the same time an exceptionally strong bit of acting. It is altogether one of the best and strongest pictures he has ever made and this means much to those who are acquainted with his work. He has a capable cast in his support. cluding Dorothy Dalton, Robert Mc- French. COMING TO KEENEY'S Dainty Vivan Martin who recently scored such pronounced successes in “Giving Becky a Chance” and ‘‘The Spirit of Romance,” and who will be seen at Keeney's Theater on Thurs- day, Friday and Saturday in the Pal- las-Paramount production of Paul We: clever story ‘A Kiss For Susie’” prepared especially for her by Harvey T.

[} sonal direction of Robert Thornby, has established for herself a unique posi- tion in the firmament of photodra- matic/stars. A little wisp of a girl, full of vitality and charm and with a roguishness all her own, she has been hailed by many as the “elf” of the film, Miss Martin, before she entered the silent drama, was & star on the speaking stage and scored pronounced success in “Officer 666" and other well known productions. In “A Kiss For Susie” Miss Martin has a role exactly opposite to that she had in her last appearance on the Paramount program in “Forbidden Paths.”” Now she is seen as Susie No- lan, the energetic young daughter of Jim Nolan, an artistic bricklayer. Young Phil Burnham of the firm for which Nolan works decides to begin takes a different name. One day "he meets Susie as she comes to bring her father his lunch. The friendship grows belore long and the two young- sters are In love. Then Susie's uncle from Australia dies and they are left a lot of money and, as Susie expresses it, anything over six dollars a day makes a bricklayer dizzy, so her fath- er and her older brother and sister immediately start out to be sacial but- terflies. Susie sees that the gay life is wrecking their happiness so-she plans that her father shall make an in- Or a nervous person. Or a self conscious person. When you cannot explain why some people have any particular pow- er and others lack it, why, for in- stance, some people are popular and others equally good lgoking and intel- ligent are not, there is one phrase that you can always fall back upon. T think I shall have to take refuge in it in this case. To be a leader you must have ‘‘personal magnetism”. Where can you get it? Would I could tell you.

It will be shown this afternoon and tonight, Friday ana ! Saturday afternoons and evenings. Hart has been working hard since joining the list of motion picturé-stars has finally completed a picture that; is a silent testimonial to his ability. | Ever since this great big fellow with his strong features and his ready gun-hand appeared on the screen, he has been an idal and an admitted leader in his art. He won his spurs in numerous stories until finally he struck his hig ace, western roles. Since his first attempt at this class of | playing his ability brought him rapid- ly to the fore until at the present time he stands at the top of the, ladder, his rivals hopelessly outclassed. “The Narrow Trail” is a story of a masterplece of pictures, the effect aof love on the life of a man whose sole companion is a gun who is hard- hearted, fearless of men of the rough- est sort that thinks he feels the warmth when ‘“the girl” steps across his path and follows her to San Francisco and follows her this time in the back room of a low, notorious saloon.
