todian's lodge, will . be found at
the east edge of the park. All

Garrit Roest, a graduate of the

cently with the $7,000,000 Forest
Lawn memorial park at Glendale,
Calif., arrived this week to take
charge of the gardening. Professor
Peck of O. S. C. has charge TDf the
landscaping. The budget allot
ment for nursery stock and land
scaping alone totals $20,000. In
cluded in this program will be a
150 foot flower garden stretching
along the front of the park, a dis
tance of some 1200feet.
A pergola will be built to over
look the cliff on the northwestern
edge of the park, a mass of .flow
ers will be planted along the edge
of the outer drive on this side.
As for the fbur burial divisions
themselves, comprising 19 acres
and each circled by drives, the
lack of ostentation except for nat
ural beauty is to be maintained by
simple bronze markers for each
burial plot. Greenhouses to be
erected on one edge of the park
will supply flowers the year
around for all the dead. An en
dowment of $70,000 guarantees
perpetual upkeep of the grounds,
this above the expenditure of
$100,000 for the project.

Tiny Leading
Lady Breaks
Many Hearts
Hollywood once more Is agog,
as they say. It is all over a femi
nine as usual. She's a blonde, of
course'.' and the fact that she is but
ten years old do?s not lessen the
seriousness ot the affair.
The thing started when Anita
Lo'iise, charming aud rather flir
tatious, was cast as "Leading
Lady" in E. Mason Hoppers
Pathe production, "Square Shoul
ders," in which Junior Cogblaa is
featured with L-j-..s Vv'olheim. and
which will be the feature attrac
tion at the ElsiiiO.x theatra on
Saturday next.
Since his ascendancy to the
province of a featured player, Jun
ior has been cnttiuK quite a swath
among the feminine hearts of the
younger generation. He had
things pretty much to himself un
til this recent picture, "Square
Shoulders," which is set in a mil
itary school and which required
several score boys his own age.
One of these, playing a principal
role, was Philippe de Lacy and
Philippe is competition for any
lady's man.
Philippe came to be quite a
hdrseman before the picture was
far into production and Anita, be
ing somewhat of a hero worship
per, fell for him hard. Junior
displayed his bag of tricks from
marbles to magic but without ef
fect. It was not until Louis Wol
faelm taught him to blow the bu
gle that he got any sort of a tum
ble from the leading lady. The
bugle, however, did the trick and
momentarily he gained the upper
hand in the quest of milady's fa
vor. When prod action was finished
on "Square Shoulders," this new
est Hollywood triangle was in sta
tus quo. It is rumored that the
ten-year-old Miss Louise has be
come interested in another of Hol
lywood's attractive Juvenile
swains. Regardless of the out
come, a fight scene between Jun
ior Coghland and Philippe de
Lacy in "Square Shoulders" will
be realistic to audiences. There
was a reason.
