AFord “Thrust Upon Her’’ By a‘ What Did You See?”’| Miss Smith Always Could Write, So It’s No Wonder - * She Won a Prize, Some persons are borp to Fords, others achieve Fords and a rare few have Fords thrust upon them. Into the latter class place pretty Marion Bilzadeth Bmith, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. George Smith, No. 7 ‘Wallace Freeport, L. I. Mies Smith was awarded a Ford for test contribution "to yesterday's “Wheat Bid You Seo To-day?" page. and it was almost fn spite of herself that she won the capital prise, for sho ‘ gent in ber contribution only under the insistent pressure of her admiring family. Misa Bmith, according to her.moth- has a gift for writing that has been manifest since she was a vory young girl. a: he Is only eighteen Bow. When she was fourteen there appeared on the front page of a Free- port paper a poem she wrote entitled “Blackers."’ That, as you may deduce for yourself, was four years ago, and four years ago the United States was more or less engaged na war. Car- tying the deduction still further, it ‘wag & patriotic poem, and Miss Smith wrote many patriotic poems during the period of her country’s peril. That was writing for recompense worth while— a duty well ahd’ ably performed. To such writing Miss Smith could turn with ease and. pleasure, but when her family suggested thet she take @ course in journalism and follow up her bent for writing the ompense of mere money and fame Tdid not appeal to Miss Smith as urge enough to write. So she went into business instead, as secretary for John B. Thayer, a broker at 111 Broadway. From the day The Evening World began tts “What Did You See To- day?" page, Miss Smith's admiring family, insisting that she would win wm dig prize withous half trying, has b begging her to enter, But even he alluring offer of a Ford failed to entice her. It was only because her family per- sisted and persisted in insisting that she send {n @ contribution that Miss Smith decided that the easiest way to peace was to send ip a contribution. She did and—since truth !s stranger than fiction—her family knew where- of it was speaking, for Miss Smith's first and only contribution promptly was awarded a Ford. « Miss Smith was busy at her office when a reporter for The Evaning World caljed heme to tnform ms ELIZABETH SMITH. ' her of her good fortune. Her mother, who could barely restrain her de- Ught, told the story of the long and successful effort to get the daughter to send in a,contribution. “| knew Marion would win some- thing {f she would only try,” Mrs Smith sald. “She really should go ahead with her writing, but she says shé prefers a business career and talks of going into business for her self, No, I don't know itn what; in anything she could get started in, | rues,” The Smiths have a car which the doctor uses in making his calls and Mrs. Smith uses in shopping and Miss Smith also drives. It often happens that more than one of the three de- sires the car at the same time, and more than once Miss Smith has sald: “It I ever get a car of my own I'll show you some independence.” Now that she has a car of her own her parents are beginning to wonder how the independence ts going to ar sert itself. The reporter hurried to her office late yesterday to try and find this out, but when he reached there she had left for the day and was en route home, not realizing that she was actually the owner of a brand new Ford. Here is the story that won it for her: A WISE FATHER, Last ovening | was watching the man next door and his six- year-old gon raking leaves when suddenly the child became en- epparently at something his father had said, and struck him with his little r. king a deep gash on tho ' id of giving Reel Reviews| By DON ALLEN Mary Pickford tripped out woon the Lyric Theatre stage last night, fol lowing the showing of ‘Douglas Fair banks in ‘Robin Hood,’ "’ and sald: “I think Robin Hood ts the bes! picture Douglas has ever donel’’ e And by ‘saylug this first, she stole our thunder. For that's exactly wha we had made up our minds to write as an opening paragraph. “Douglas Forbanks in ‘Robin Bood’® ts a remarkable picture, inas much as it 1s a8 good as both Douglas and Mary think it is. And that, In Itself, is saying worlde for it. Probaly there never was such op- position from the front of a house as was In the Lyrio last evening.

He added: “Unless there 1s a decided change of heart on the part of the many Senators {t would be useless to Introduce a new onus bill in the next Congress.” peneven ditties WITNESS SAYS HAMMER SLAYER STOLE PURSE hillips of Robbing Mra, Meadows. LOS ANGELES, Oct. 31.—The story of the flight of Mrs. Clara Phillips after the slaying of Mrs. Alberta Méadows was begun In the trial of Mre. Phillips for murder, and the prosecution broughi out that Mrs. Meadows at the time of her death had $85, as yet unaccounted for. The cross-examination of Mrs. Peggy Oeffee, who witnessed the murder, was brought to an abrupt close. She stuck closely to her direct examination story of the traged: “I never knew they made it with chocolate flavor. right in it!” ALTED MILK is such a fa- miliar article to everybody! Fewwomenhaverealizedthatthey can now buy a new kind that has THE EVENING WORLD, TUBSDAY, OOTOBER Bi, the ordinary. And that's Just what “Robin Hood" did For a time it looked as though the interest In the Valentinos, the Barry- Mores, the Meighans and the Faire banks and Pickfurds was golng to mé from the screen, but when the picture was once started all tnterest focused upon tt. To say that “Robin Hood,” as pre- sented by Valrbanks and a cast al- most perfect, is a wonderful picture ts rather tame. In fact, adjectives seem rather weak. But we will say right here that Dougias Fairbanks ln “Robin Hood" out-spectacles all that we have seen before on the screen. And, aside trom its spectacular sida, it la strewn Mberally with human interest. Many of the dig scenes are superbly han dled, especially those in and adjacent to the Normen Castle and |n the con~ fines of the forest lair of Robjn Hood. Allan Dwan, who !ast night was far too bashful to make a speech, is re- sponsible for the direction, and @ right good Job he made of It too. Douglas Fairbanks, as was so aptly put by bis fair wife, bi ever done apything better for the screen than “Robin Hood.” No part that we oan think of would ft an actor better than this title role falls about the athletic shoulders of Fairtenks. Of course, Douglas does far too much unnecessary jumping around; he aly ways does, but no one will hold that very much against him. The cast {s wellynigh perfect with Wallace Beery as Richard the Lion Heart, sharing acting honors with the star. We would ‘tke to shake Beery by the hand and congratulate him for showing us the first really human movie king we have ever be, held. His characterization, a well as that of Sam de Grasse us Princé John, are notable screen achievements. Enid Bennett wag rather Ustiaus, but looked quite sweet as Maid Marian Truly ‘Robin Hood” ts the best thing Douglas Feirbanks hag ever done.

We are quite willing to accept everything that is good for us, provided it takes no effort to get it. Milk is good food. It is es- sential to maximum bodily health. Health is the greatest treasure we have. These things we admit—yet we don’t drink enough milk. When a doctor says to a sick man, “Take two pills three hours after meals,” the fear of consequences makes the patient live with his eyes on the clock. But when the doctor says to a healthy man, “You should drink a quart of milk a day to preserve your health,” he is likely to yawn and say, “Ye- ah!” and promptly forget it. Most of us could drink more milk by asking for it at meal- times. Some would probably have to order an additional quart a day. In some homes much milk is thrown away be- cause no one will take the trouble to walk to the ice-box to get it. While our purpose in life is to see that you get enough pure, fresh milk to drink, we are emphatically opposed to waste. It is much better and easier for you and your family to telephone today for extra milk than to wait until you “don’t feel just right” and call a doctor. DAIRY MEN'S Co.OrgeraTiIve ASSOCIATION, ING.
