Lila Lee plays the leading part, and Charles Ogle, the veteran character actor, has one of the greatest human-interest parts he has ever had. Between making breath-taking scenes for "The White Eagle," her latest Pathe serial, Ruth Roland lolls on the California beaches as unconcerned as any ingenue. the studio. The carpenters — thinking of his convenience, perhaps — built it j,ust over his dressing room, so he is just a ladder's length away. Mildred Harris will play opposite Thomas Meighan in "A Prince There Was," which was played on the stage by George M. Cohan. May McAvoy will soon appear in the most spectacular of her Realart productions. It is "The Morals of Marcus," long a popular favorite of readers everywhere.

Not only has Mrs. Reid returned to the screen, but her young son, Billy Reid, is appearing with her in "Pat o' Paradise," the first of a series of . productions starring Lester Cuneo. June Mathis, the continuity expert, who was responsible for "The Four Horsemen" and many other Metro successes, is now working with Maxwell Karger on a picture which promises to be one of the novelties of the year. It is "The Hole in the Wall," in which Alice Lake is starred, and it contains an interesting expose of fake spiritistic seances. Victor Fleming, who directed the Emerson-Loos special, "Red-hot Romance," will direct Agnes Ayres in her first star picture. This is to be "The Lane That Has No Turning." which was written by Sir Gilbert Parker. Miriam Batista, the child actress who did notable work in "Humoresque," and has since appeared on the speaking stage in connection with pictures in New York will appear in support of Norma Talmadge in her next production, "Smiling Through."

Will Rogers will appear in a special production for Paramount before beginning a series of two-reel productions of his own. Madge Kennedy is soon to return to the screen at the head of her own company. Lon Chaney is almost the busiest of players in Hollywood this year. He hardly finishes one engagement when he has to rush to another studio and start work on another. As soon as he finishes "Wolf-breed" for Universal he will rush back to the Goldwyn lot, where one of his greates'; pictures, "The Penalty," was made, and start work on "The Octave of Claudius." One day when things were dull around the Metro studio thev went at it and changed the titles of their stories that were in production. "The Right That Failed" became "Keep Off the Grass," and "Junk" became "The Idle Rich." Bert Lytell is the star in both pictures. HIGH SCHOOL tOUBSE IN TWO YEABS You Want to Earn Big Money! And you will not be satisfied unless you earn steady promotion. But are you prepared for the job ahead of you? Do you measure up to the standard that insures success? For a more responsible position a fairly good education is necessary. To write a sensible business letter, to prepare estimates, to figure cost and to compute interest, you must have a certain amount of preparation. All this you must be able to do before you will earn promotion. Many business houses hire no men whose general knowledge is not equal to a high school course. Why? Because big business refuses to burden itself with men who are barred from promotion by the lack of elementary education. Can You Qualify for a Better Position? We have a plan whereby you can. We can give you a complete but simplified high school course in two years, giving you all the essentials that form the foundation of practical business. It will prepare you to hold your own where competition is keen and exacting. Do not doubt your ability, but make up your mind to it and you will soon have the requirements that will bring you success and big money. YOU CAN DO IT. Let us show you how to get on the road to success. It will not cost you a single working hour. We are so sure of being able to help you that we will cheerfully return to you, at the end of ten lessons, every cent you sent us if you are not absolutely satif=fied. What fairer offer can we make you? Write today. It costs you nothing but a stamp. AMERICAN SCHOOL Dept. H976 Drexel Ave. &. 5 8th St., Chicago dmeri(^n School Dept.
