NATIONAL STUDIO Miss Ormi Hawley, HPHE OFFICERS and sailors aboard the Atlantic fleet stationed at Newport last summer call Miss Hawley "The Navy Girl," because she was the only girl in the cast of "The Nation's Peril," the picture filmed by Director Terwilliger, of the Lubin Company, at Newport, when Secretary of the Navy Daniels loaned the use of the entire Atlantic fleet for the making of the picture. "I was a regular boarder of Uncle Sam all summer, and I never had such a good time in my life," said Miss Hawley. "This was the last picture I had taken at Newport, by the way. I had just twisted this piece of tulle over my hat and was " The Navy Girl " laughing at one of the officers, when the camera man took it, just to spite me. Uncle Sam was a sort of godfather to the play, you know, and the navy all took such an interest in it." The navy enjoyed the rehearsal as much as Miss Hawley did. Imagine yourself a young and beautiful girl with all those handsome naval officers dancing attendance all summer. No wonder she had such a good time ! In her spare time she learned all the nautical bag of tricks. She could shinny up a ladder as well as any sailor and was worthy of her sailor's hammock any time. The entire marine strength of the Atlantic fleet is shown in "The Nation's Peril."
