Faty Arbuckle Coma,
Mary Miles Minter, premiere char-
meuse of the film, ‘who has a long
list of distinct dramatic successes to
her credit as the youngest emotional
stage, has a splendid background in
her latest Mutual-American production
“Periwinkle." '
The play is a bit of “rough coast."
with “Lovey Mary" in oilskins and
|sou'wester. amid the turmoil of action
that characterizes a coastguard sta-
tion when there is a “ship on the
rocks.
Miss Minter is admirably suited to
this atmosphere and the events that
accompany it. Her pretty ways and
childlike faith in the ultimate well-
being of all concerned. however black
the night, reach the hearts of her pub-
.lic. ‘
in addition to “Periwinkle," Tally

MARRIAdE RUSH MAY END.
NEW YORK. Aug. 1.—An order that
applicants for marriage licenses here
he required to show their military reg-
istration cards was expected to put an
end to the rush of men of conscription
age to marry and escape service in the1
Naitonal Army.
Few of the 537 men granted licenses
yesterday were not of military age.
An examination of the first seventy l1-
censes showed that only one man was
about the draft age. Only six were
born in the United States. and of these
two had foreign born parents on one or
both sides.
One explanation of the matrimonial
rush is the prominence given by sev-
igan.
