studio to avert a chance discovery by
Mrs. Talmadge. Simultaneously with
its arrival. a cheap pictui‘eof this pop-
ular star was delivered for use in the
studio scene of “Ghosts of Yesterday.".
Some inexplicable manner. the two
‘were mixed and when a hurry-up call
came for the scene to be "shot." the
Fleet-z portrait was placed upon the
easel.
i Miss Talmadge is required in this
iscene to slash to shreds her own pic-
ture~lt rested on the easel in the
shadow. and the star failed to observe
it closely. With the director's order
of “Camera." the action progressed ra-
pidly, and only after her knife sank
into the picture. did Norma note the
general pose and signature at the bot:
tom of the wrecked painting. Too
late. she realized that her mother's
handsome Christmas present had been
sacrlflctd on the altar of art.

When one of her fo‘fiher Fox suc-
Miss Martin was in the audience. At
her first entrance on the screen, she]
heard a young girl sitting beside her‘ '
say to another girl.
“0h. isnt she sweet?”
The com] anion agreed. Then,
throughout the action of the picture.
the giddy young things continued to
make much of the work of Miss Mai"

‘Let Miss Martin continue the story:
“Both girls were so adorably enthns- ‘

busts that I couldn't resist an im-
pulse. So i leaned over and said Very

“ ‘i thank you.’

recognised me. And we all three start-l

are. holding their own. General
Foch, who anticipated the place
and date- of the offensive, made his
plans accordingly, and is reported
well-satisfied with the result of. the
first diiy’s fighting. No important
positions have been gained and the
Germans hnye suffered great losses

Epcruay, the objective of the first
day, still is safe from enemy
troops.

been made on itheims and that
battle-scarred city, long the ob-

rounded it. on three sides and hop-

WASHINGTON, July 16.—The
present offensive in the opinion
of observers here is but the fore-
runner of another German effort
in the north. Hoping to break the
Franco-Italian lines about Rheims
and thereby cause General Foch to
rush reserves from behind Amiens
to defend the French capital, it is
said the German command may
count upon a weakining of the
northern line in the Albert region
to the extent that a thrust in that
region could be successfully made.
