Wm. de Mille's Film "Grumpy" is Thrilling Theodore Roberts Every scenario writer strives for one big thing in every picture—suspense. Without it a picture is an absolute failure in so-far as interest is concerned. Chara Deranger has succeeded. In "Grumpy," William de Mille's production featuring Theodore Roberts, May McAvay and Conrad Nagel, which comes to the California Theatre today, she has begun the suspense with the first scene and it ends only when the final scene is shown. The central situation of "Grumpy" is the mysterious disappearance of a diamond valued at $500,000, which is stolen from Ernest Heron (Conrad Nagel) and recovered by "Grumpy," a lovable, though irascible, old character played by Mr. Roberts. The suspense starts with the opening scene, when the crooks are plotting the theft of the jewel. It builds up bigger and bigger to the climax and does not finally end until the last scene, when the crook is brought to "We are active in all markets" Smackovers Dividends Announced Tal Morse 100 percent dividend to stockholders of record April 21st.

BERNHARDT'S GIRL COUSIN LIKE HER (By International News Service) ST. LOUIS, April 20.—While just now more interested in jumping rope and playing other childish games with her twin sister and her chums, little Mary Pace, nine years old, a third cousin of the late Mme. Sarah Bernhardt, may some day rise to fame, as did her eminent relative, whose death is mourned the world over. It cannot be said that Mary is conceived enough to cherish dreams of being heralded in the same manner as her famed cousin was, because Mary is "just a regular girl" today. In fact, she doesn't know much about the history of the "Divine Sarah." Between skips of the rope she'll tell you that she heard her father "speak often of her around the house." Her father is a street car conductor. Mary has shown recitative talent ever since she was playing with her blocks and reciting little rhymes in her nursery. Even before she was three years old she could sing several popular songs and bring in appropriate gesticulations in surprising fashion. Mary's voice has developed. Whenever any exercises are given in her classroom at school, Mary's name is always on the program to either recite or sing. It was in this manner that her potentialities were discovered. Neither her teacher nor her playmates knew of her relationship with the actress when Mary's tutor asked the girl to have her mother call at the school. The teacher told the mother that her little daughter showed great promise of real elocutionary talent and advised the mother to have it developed. It was in this same manner that Madame Bernhardt was discovered. Sarah Bernhardt was a twelve-year-old girl, in curls, attending a convent school, when she displayed rare talent in the role she took in a miracle play produced at the school. She was advised at that time to develop the talent which later brought her greater fame and higher tributes than Shallcross The 100% Dividend Payer Quick Action on these will save you money.

The teacher told the mother that her little daughter showed great promise of the possession of real elocutionary talent and advised the mother to have it developed. It was in this same manner that Madame Bernhardt was discovered. Sarah Bernhardt was a twelve-year-old girl, in curls, attending a convent school, when she displayed rare talent in the role she took in a miracle play produced at the school. She was advised at that time to develop the talent which later brought her greater fame and higher tributes than ever were paid to any artist of the stage. Mrs. Pace's father frequently told his daughter the family history. He told of once visiting Madame Bernhardt on one of her tours of this country. The father on that occasion disputed with the actress as to her birthplace. He asserted she was born in Pennsylvania, but Madame Bernhardt always proudly claimed she was of French birth. Those who dispute her say this was because of her intense patriotism. "The family," says Mrs. Pace, "is of German-Jewish origin. Its members emigrated to America, where, according to letters and documents in the possession of my relatives, Sarah was born. It was later that her folks moved back to France." ROB CALIF.

COLONED M'MULLEN LAUDS THE BRITISH (By International News Service) LONDON, April 20.—"The English legal system is one of the things that have most favorably impressed me during my four months' stay in England," said Colonel Joseph McMullen, chairman of the United States Commission for the hearing of war invention claims, on the eve of sailing for America. "England's legal system is quite all right." he continued: "It has a great many points which our lacks and has a great many more short cuts than we have in America."

BOOE PUTS MILD COWS ON WARPATH (By International News Service) POPLAR BLUFF, Mo., April 20. There was a merry jingle of cow-bells, and for a time Judge R. M. Waggner thought his stock as in the nursery rhyme, were going to essay hurdling the moon. Five head of the judge's best and under normal conditions, most docile cows came staggering home the other night. The judge went to console them, but when he appeared the faithful old cows mimicked their male bretheren and placed him in the role of foreder. The cows made for the judge but he made a hasty escape from the chaged animals. The cows, it was found, had strained off in the neighborhood and imbibed in some moonshine mash. One cow died, another went blind, and three others are sobering up from their little party.
