Missionary themes formed the topics
of the addresses and discussions of the
day. The morning service included an
Impressive celebration of the holy com
munion, with Dr. A. A. Morrison offi
ciating. An inspirational address was
given by the Very Rev. E. H. McCol
lister, dean of St. Stephen's fro
Cathedral. He said that church services
should promote a knowledge of what
the church is doing; a consciousness,
ever present, of religious life and all
it means; real spirituality, not to be
lost by the mechanism of the church,
and a loyalty to ciiurch.
In the address of venerable Arch
deacon Emery, of California, members
were urged to keep up their church
dues and the Interest In the work, not
withstanding the extra strain of war
times. "The war between good and
evil Is going on all the time," said the
archdeacon, "and it is. our duty to be
ever ready to fight for" the right. Mis
sionary zeal must be maintained."
Junior Auxiliaries Proposed.
Valuable suggestions for carrying on
the work and for making the meetings
of missionary auxiliaries interesting
were made by Bishop Sumner, who ad
dressed the women in the afternoon in
the parish-house. The bishop urged
the promotion of Junior auxiliaries.
Deaconess Hodgkins, principal of the
Deaconess" Training School at Berkeley,
Cal., told of the work of her school,
which offers a two years' course for
educational work or to be a clergy
man's assistant, and varied courses of
training for general church service.
She made a plea for more young women
in this department.
The diocese pledged a donation of
$100 to the girls' school, St. Agnes, of
Toklo, Japan.
An invitation was received from St.
David's Parish for" the convention of
next year, which the auxiliaries ac
cepted. Bishop Sumner advised a firmer busi
ness plan, and as a result of his sug
gestions Mrs. Joseph! will appoint a
budget committee. A letter of appre
ciation for her devotion to the cause
was sent to Mrs. Scadding in apprecia
tion of her 10 years of leadership.

Patbe Contest With Serial.
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.

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

be run down, by a tugboat, to Jump

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:
