"The Girl Who Doesn't Know" To Be
Sliowa In 111m Drama.
"The Girl Who Doesnt Know," the
sensational new photoplay starring
Marie Empress, will be exhibited at
the Star theatre, Thursday, March ;
8th. This unusual production, des
cribed as a "photoplay sermon for
parents," will be augmented by the
fourth installment of the popular j
"Dncle Sam's Defenders" series and
Paramount Pictographs.
"There runs throughout this ex
cellent picture thoroughly natural
episodes of every day life. The dif
ferent problems Involved are handled
rery well and parents will no doubt
find much to think about in this
wonderful photoplay" says the mana
ger of the Star.
" 'The Girl Who Doesn't Know' is
likely to prove one of the most dis
cussed motion pictures of the year, as
It Is a series of well written, exciting
" tales possibly with too much freedom
of revelation for prudes, that will do
much good, especially as it tends to
: make parents the best friends of
their children.
"In some of the incidents the pic
ture goes sometimes daringly far, yet
. the frankness is ever bound about
; with delicacy. It is telling the truth
. not for exploitation, but in line with
the purpose to work out a problem
by something better than preaching
' the precept.
"The realism is justified by the sin
cerity so that the story unfolds itself
as if it were inspired to do the thing
that will convince and impress the
great mass of people who will surely
be attracted to it.
;.. "The strongest spoken sermon or
) written editorial could never bring
home its lesson with the force and
: conviction that this screen play does.
"We predict that the production of
'. "The Girl Who Doesn't Know," will
' mark an epoch in the dissemination
of knowledge through the medium of
the screen practicularly knowledge
, that leans toward moral and social
npllft."

School No. S9 and graduated as the
youngest member in her class. From
there she went to Erasmus High
School, and while there studied vo
cal music and piano under the direc
tion of Mrs. Mary Gunning, mother!
and teacher of Louise Gunning, the
operatic star. Under Mrs. Gunning's
direction, Miss Stewart appeared in
several amateur operas, taking small
parts with brilliant success.
In private life Miss Stewart is the
sister-in-law of Mr. Ralph Ince, the
famous Vitagraph director and actor.
It was through him that she secured
her first position with the Vitagraph
Company. For the first six months
she did little other than extra work,
appearing as maids and in unim
portant characters. But she was
learning the rudiments of the picture
game from the ground up, under the
able direction of her brother-in-law,
who took a strong personal interest
in her professional achievements.
.Her first part of any importance
was the lead in "The Wood Violet,"
a sort of primitive little lady who
was brought to New York as a rich
man's wife. She soon tires of the
veneer of society and the artificiality
of it all, and returns to her native
haunts, only to be followed later by
her husband, who truly loves her.
Seemingly this is a simple story, yet

gon, is in Chicago for a few days for
the purpose of Inspecting the work

Land and Industrial Bureau and Ex
hibition, looking toward representa
tion for the Pacific Northwest.
Mr. Faville, who is markedly en
thusiastic regarding the bureau and
exhibition, and anxiously eager to
have the State of Washington enroll
ed among active exhibitors and bene
ficiaries, has Interesting things to say
of the recent upward progress and
development of Washington and Oregon.
"The rapidity with which these
states have adopted a system of di
versified farming and live stock rais
ing has been wonderful," in Mr. Fa
ville's opinion. "Especially has there
been a marked increase in the grow
ing of alfalfa and other forage crops
an initial step toward crop rotation
and essential to the maintenance of
soil fertility.
"The original impetus resulting in
this economic advancement was im
parted in 1913, when Professor P. O.
Holden, prominent in agricultural ex
tension work conducted 960 meetings
in a territory, embracing 225 square
miles.
"At that time the Pacific North
west was a buying region. Now it
has an annual surplus of food and
feeds to sell, and the importation of
butter and dairy products has en
tirely ceased. In the last five years
Oregon has increased the number of
her dairy cattle 30 per cent, with the
Washington increase showing 40 per
cent. The increase in other cattle
has been much more increased, 120
per cent in Oregon and 370 per cent
in Washington. Among the many
other promising improvements may
be mentioned a system of great ter
minal warehouses for the handling
of the largely increased grain har
vests and a better method of handl
ing grain on the farms.
"Other fine movements have been
set going also, as, for example, that
of better roads and the rural credits
system, just now receiving united at
tention from farmers and business
men alike. As a result of all this in
telligent effort, the earning power per
farm in the Pacific Northwest has
been increased to $4000 the highest
in the country.
