THERE is one problem that Is older than war; that affects more of th earth'a Inhabitants than even so great an armed clash as the one now in progress. That problem Is do mestic happiness. Marital happiness and marital fidelity shape the welfare of the Nation In time of war as In time ' of peace. It is to help towards a solution of this greatest of all problems that Pathe announces a prize contest, open to all, for the best solution of a drama that is played in millions of homes." It has been estimated that the tragedy of domestic despair casts Its shadow over one in every five homes; In other words, every fifth house on your street is a black house, where a man and woman have tangled their destiny into a knot that cannot be unwound. How would you unravel that knotT A prize of $1000 will be paid for the best answer. The person submitting the next best solution will receive 500. and $100 wilt be paid to each of the five whose answers rank third. Literary merit will not be consid ered. The genuine applicability of your solution to everyday life will be a prime essential. A committee of men and women of National standing will act as judges. The same problem has been put Into a new" kind of motion picture serial under the title, "The Neglected Wife," by Pathe. This serial Is adapted from novels by Mabel Herbert Urner, the most widely-read author on domestic subjects. It gives the dramatic and sometimes tragic history of a husband, his wife and the other woman, and how they straightened out the triangle that threatened their happiness. contestants', answers need not cor respond to the ending in Pathe's pic ture. They should be limited to 200 words and be written on one side of the paper only. No replies will be eon sidered after August 12. Solutions should be sent to local Pathe Exchange. Mary Still Likes Dolls. . Mary Pickford Is still fond of dolls, and the mere fact that her entire com pany was made Idle for practically an entire day while she played with, dolls wa3 of no importance whatever. . During the filming of the scenes In "A Romance of the Redwoods," the new Artcraft picture, this fondness dis played itself. In several of the scenes taken high in the California mountains it was necessary for Miss Pickford to use a doll dressed in the style of the days of 49. When it came time to be gin work on those Incidents it was found that, although the doll had been dressed for the scene. It had been left behind. A boy was about to" be dis patched to a neighboring small town to secure another doll, when Mis Pickford said: "I'll go get It myself you are rn a hurry and I will run In and come right back." This was agree able to Mr. De Mills, and Miss Pick ford vanished in an automobile. An hour passed by, and then another, The company sat around and talked, amusing themselves as best they could and still no Miss Pickford. Several more hours passed and the day gradu ally was beginning to fade. Mr. De Mille ordered the company back to town, and upon reaching the village they stopped at a small country store, and there, behind one of the counters with the small daughter of the store keeper, sat the favorite and highest- salaried photodramatio artist of the world, playing with a varied assort ment of dolls, utterly oblivious to the flight of time. , Their Spring Togs. Ethel Clayton has a wtne-color suit, while Marguerite Snow's Is reseda, Edna Hunter's is tan. Pearl White's is dark navy. Louise Glaum's Is myrtle. Violet Mersereau's is navy, E1'-! Hall's Is gray, Olive Tell's is cope. V suerlte Courot's is black, in mourning for the fallen French soldiers, Bessie Bar rlscale's is brown and Alice Brady's is mustard. Robert Warwick has a plnoh-baok, s 1 -7 - A :':::.. rtirrrWiti; patch-pocket, one-button navy blue serge suit; E. K. Lincoln has one of dark gray with silver and dark ma roon thread stripe; Montagu Love has a two-button royal blue with white pencil stripes; Harry. Morey one of bronze brown, single-breasted, with three buttons: ouglas Fairbanks tartan plaid mixture with, belt; James Morrison a slit-back two-button green ish mixture; Howard Estabrook a black and white snepherd check; George Be ban a dark brown tartan plaid; Dustln Farnum a dark blue broken check ef feet, and Chester Barnett a Havana brown corded self stripe. Needless to say that all these stars look their finest in their Spring feathers! How Evelyn "Broke In." Some girls are born movie actresses some achieve movie acting, and some have movie acting thrust upon them. In the case of the exceptionally at tractive and gifted Miss Evelyn Gree' ley It happened like this: She chose the movies as a toplo for an essay in boarding school and visited a studio to get facts. The director thought sho was an actress looking for a job and hustled her into a scene in spite of her protests. The girl began to cry, and the director made her keep right on while he took a dozen tearful scenes and gave her a contract to continue as his star weeper. Then the World Pictures people caught sight of her and she became leading lady at their Fort Lee studio, where she has turned out to be a high ly-valued acquisition. But you cannot convince Miss Greeley that It is hard work to get Into the picture game. She knows better than that. Mollle King War Godmother Mollle King, who Is starring In Path-e's serial, "Mystery of the Double Cross," Is this country's first war god mother. Miss King has adopted three youths who have volunteered to fight for uncle Sam, after the fashion set by the women of France and England, One of them was the sole support of his mother and four young sisters. Learning that his duty to them kep him from enlisting. Miss King offered to pay all their expenses during hi service and he hastened away to the recruiting office. Another -who wished to enter the Navy was deterred by the thought of what would become of his crippled father. Miss King assumed the obliga tlon to care for the Invalid. In the third case the popular star Is provid- lng for the small daughter of a young widower. As European war godmothers do. Miss King will write to her proteges when they are on active service and furnish them with comforts not included in the Government supplies. I'm trying to do my bit, the actress said. "Wo women who can't fight are under an obligation to do all we can to encourage our men to fight and to care for them when they do. Behind every man on the firing line Is some woman for whom he feels . that he is fighting and who has helped him to build up the ideals of sacrifice and pa triotism that led him to enlist. We can't prove our devotion on the battle field, but we can prove it cere at home. If in no other way than through our pocketbooks." Only Their Husbands. Mr. Blanche Ring (Charles Wlnnln ger), the well-known trombone player and actor, was given three rousing cheers by the Only Their Husbands' Club when he appeared at the regular monthly meeting, held last Monday In the Blue room at the Alexandria Ho tel. Los Angeles. He brought with him the greetings of the club's president, Mr. Mary Pick ford' (Owen Moore). Mr. Fannie Ward (Jack Dean) deliv ered a stirring speech and urged that the motto of the club be from now on "Remember Russia." Mr. Marie Doro (Elliott Dexter), a rabid revolutionary, threw all reason to the wind and made a hfotion that the club meet twice a month. Mr. Kathlyn Williams (Charles Ey ton) smoothed over a very delicate sit uatlon at this point by saying it would be Impossible for. him to attend twice a month, as he was a very busy man. The meeting closed by a satlrlo selec tion by the members, entitled "Home, Sweet Home. It's a Thrilling Life. For those enthusiasts who are so keenly interested in Joining the ranks of motion picture players It might be well to consider that salaries and glory are not all that must be thought of in connection with such a vocation. For example. In the production of the 11th episode of "The Railroad Raid ,V r r jr.- TP E 11 " Alder at era." Helen Holmes was called upon to be run down, by a tugboat, to Jump from the pilothouse of a tug to the steel girders of a bridge and later to leap from the top of a train going one direction to the top of another bound in the opposite direction. It is small wonder that the insurance rate on pho- toplayers has been raised. Try This on Your TTkelele. One of the 400 verses In a poem writ ten by a Joplln, Mo., girl In. honor of Bill Hart runs as follows: Lord, T hope you'll gro on pl&ytn, thexnt hlnits; honest, I'm keen For you any time, all the time, my sweet Hart of tho screen. 'Cause sometimes you make me laf, and sometimes you make me sigh. And then agin, doggone you, yore actln' - makes ma cry.
