The printed rumor had It that Mrs. Pickford-Falr- banks had booked a room at a hospital in San Francisco for use in September for this particular event. Whereupon, little Marv issued the. pfollowing statement: "There is abso lutely no truth to the report that a visit from a stork is expected at th Fairbanks home. If such a wonderful thing were true we would have no reason to deny it and I am very sure that if an event of this kind were im minent I would not be appearing In pictures." Doug added to the denial the ex planation, "The only bird that I have seen hovering around our home is -an ostrich given us last Christmas." He added that said ostrich could be bought very cheap. ' " , LEAVING THE FIRESIDE. Another former film celebrity, Dor othy Davenport, has heard the call of the screen and is about to emerge from domesticity to sign a picture con tract. .In private life she is Mrs. Wallace Reid, who, before her ijiav rlage, 'was one of the best known film t ci n j i m t- i...

She has named- the place "Sunkist," but says that is not a true description, for the clouds park right in her front yard. But the ' day t the photographer visited the sun was keep ing faithful tryst, as the picture shows. Miss de Remer is to be featured by Associated Producers in IFrothingham productions. The first, from Op'pen- '.heim's novel "Passersby," has .beo'n completed at the Brunton studios. It may be called "The Black Fox" when it appears on the screen. Lewis Stone will play opposite -Miss de Remer. .MUSICIAN GETS SHOCK. Jan Kubelik, the famous musfcian, was a recent visitor to the West Coast studio of Universal. It was his first peep into a studio anda bit bewilder ed, he watched Frank Mayo at work and' later got a real thrill out of a serial cave set in which a prop skele ton was hanging.

Mission Inn at Riverside, California, the favorite haunt of honeymooners is well as of tourists, was the setting for the marriage last week of Prisciila Bonner and Alan Wymss. Miss Bon ner had just completed the leading role in Mr. -and Mrs. George Randolph Chester's Vitagraph special, "The Son of Wallingford." The two are dom iciled in a "love nest" in Hollywood, where Wymss will give part of his time to writing scenarios for Miss Bon Rubyc de Remer. Looking very lovely and gorgeous on the studio lot Mildred Harris confided recently that all reports notwithstand ing, she is not going into vaudevillu. She admits she may go east again af ter the completion o the current Do Mille picture, based on Leonard Mer rick's "Laurels and the Lady." She also admits that she might possibly ap pear in a new footlight play then, but thf-t-the two-a-day idea is all wrong. If she" does what her admirers wish, however, she will remain in the cellu loid world. If reports as to her work in this new De Mille picture be true, contrac; inducements will be too great for hr to, resist. .'Tis said that "Laurels and the Lady" or whatever name the fin ished picture bears, will reveal not only a very lovely Mildred Harris, but one of far greater histrionic den'h than even her best friends believed her to have. NO STORK DUEWT FAIRBANKS HOME. ' Dame Rumor and the paper seem bent on making Mary Pickford a moth er. After rumor had been busy for mgnths predicting the: coming of a stork to - the Pitkford-Fairbanks dbmi- It seems only fair that when an actress has been acclaimed as , th "most beautiful blond in America." that, picture fans should be , gjven ev ery opportunity ot seeing her pretty face. That is one reason why I am showing this very newest picture of Rubye de Remer, who was designated by Helleu; ' the famous French artist, as our "most beautiful blond.".

The Ladies' Auxiliary of the North Carolina Association will hold ' 'ts business session Tuesday afternoon at the Selwyn hotel. i An Important Sugg estion Using the above caption at the head of an attractive circular advertisement, Cornelhis-Forsyth Co., retail coal merchants of Wheaton, IUmois, calls upon its customers to buy coal early. Since the advertisement outlines the present situation ,0 forcibly, we reprint it here in in f hII: , , Russell Sago bought his straw hat in the Fall. He djed one of the richest men America ever produced. Today coal buyers may be pessimistic, but in reaUtythey-are asleep to the actual situation. Were Russell Sage buying coal today, he would probably see these factors and ACT.- This country normally consumes 550 million tons of coal annually, while production now at the rate of less than 300 nullion tons. The actual amount of coal in the consumers' bins is, small. Over fifty per cent of the mines are closed; more are closing weekly. Miners have drifted away, looking for other employment. Th total number of open-top freight cars available for service this Fall trill be even smaller than the Tumber available last Fall, for railroad cars have been withdrawn from coal regions and will be absorbed for movbig ma terial for road building programs and for other work held back by last year's car priorities which assigned gondola cars to the mines. General business may remain quiet foi ' several . nthfsdbty nntU harvest-time and then coal buyers will awake too late. ,The industries, the lakeTSe, will want cars AT ONCE. In response to .'all Remands, the dealer will be called upon to supply abnormal quantities QU1CKL.Y. .' ' .'. . ' . , Can this sudden demand 'for ..coal ''be met? Or, if the railroads fa their impaired financial condition can render the needed service, can the mines pro duEJ the- coal? Or, if both the railroads and the mines can meet the demand, c theTe mines after "starving" for months afford to sell their coal as cheaply as they are doing -today? . .. r .'

Beautiful June is liable! to bea sad month' for theih --There isn't enough summer time chorusing to take the place of. the winter affairs that stack the scenery quietly in a store house. But they are being rapidly absorbed into New York fashion mod: elling, and they are perfectly happy ;to walk haughtily across a showroom for a change so long -as the good littlei pay envelope appears just the same at the -week's end. At a fashion show put on the other day by- one New York maker of. women's clothes," $300,000 was spent on the production. Musical com edy has nothing on that so far as the chorus girl is concerned. - It's pretty hard to wait eighteen years and search two continents to get :the girl you want to" marry and then have your romance end.- in- an arrest for A. W. O, L. '' ' .That's, the sad story of Lieut. Marcus Sakarfos, graduate of the Greek Military Academy, who was -arrested here the other day. Eigh teen years ago, when Sakarfos was a lieutenant in the Greek Royal Navy, he met an English girl, fell in love with her - and tried to persuade her to marry him. He failed for the time and the girl returned to England. Some time later,, he went' there to find her. She had gone to America, he was told. Just as he Avas about to pursue her, he was re-called .for service in the Balkan war. -- - When he was - through with that war, he. sailed for the United States, and kept on looking -until ve went v Into the j World war and .once more he became a soldier. Then one da v. on leave,-he saw the girl at Brigh ton Beachl This time he won her and they were. married. . He was stationed at Fortress Monroe and, after several months, he .got' leave to go home. He failed to. return,probably deciding that he had waited long enough to be able to settle down at , home. -And if he hadn't got himself into the arms of the law by speeding his automobile the oth er day, he would be settled there Still. . ' , r English needlework ..of the- time of Charles I is on exhibition 'at the Paw son Galleries. Many a famous lady worked industriously .at her embroidery during that period and the results of her work are truly marvelous 10 us Of this generation or this age. The numbers of different kinds of stitches are multitudinous and it was not un common to crowd so many of them in to an inch of space that it takes a Magnifying glass to distinguish then! all. Purses, carpets-- bags, and all sorts of things are in the collection, among them a pair -of. white satin sleeves embroidered in gold by Queen Anne. i More than 1,000,000 telephones are installed in New York City, with 5, 'snn.nno miles of wires, and -4,250,000 calls Pe made every day. More than, a million people are taming uvei wfcres during every , one of the busy hours or the twenty-four. There is something fascinating about such big figures even when they are only con cerned with telephoning. But prob ably about 250,000 of that daily milr jion, exclaim, "Oh! my .gosh -(or words to. that effect) J wish that, 'phone would let up." 'V The baldheaded residents of our city are perturbed over the receat action of the Ellis Island immigration officials in barring Salvatore Ippolito from enter ing the country because of baldness.

What Congress has done thus far this sesssion, so far as revenue legislation is concerned, is nothing. The proposed revenue bill has not &s yet been introduced. That bill is nn integral part of any. financial pro-w-o urViivi the government may un dertake to cerform.' It seems almost p A man's prosperity certain that months of discussion will follow the Introduction of the bill, so that its passage before October,; at the (earliest, is regarded as doubtful.

From Page One.) tax b,ills this session and that while he would lUce to see other measures like a new department 'of public wel fare or a government reorganization put through, 1 he realizes precedence must be given the tariff and taxes even though nothing else, is done on other bills. .... Mr. Harding is trying not to force Congress. He is loath to do anything that might se.em to be dictation either in the Wilsonian or Rooseveltian sense. He would prefer that Congress function under its own leadership. . . But even the leaders in Congress are not altogether sure that it is a good plan. They - dq not, of course, want to be foroed to do things against their better judgment, they do not like to be ordered to pass a bill when there is a powerful sentiment inside the party against it, but -when the whole situa tion is more or less in confusion and members are pressing consideration of their own bills as against administra tion measures, it is helpful for the lead ers to get a word of counsel from the chief executive. 'v " DIFFICULT SITUATION, , So difficult has the whole situation become incidentally that some of the Republican leaders who know Mr. Hard ing's aversion to anything : that may look like an instruction to Congress are considering the wisdom of sending the steering committees of the Senate and House to Mr. Harding for advice. If th initiative were constantly taken by the leaders in Congress they feel their consultations win not be subject to criticism. It is not merely oh the tariff and taxes that conflicts have and will occur. By far the most serious situation be fore' Congress, today is the naval appro priation bill. After 'slashing the mili tary appropriation and insisting that the. army be cut to 150,000 men over the protests of. General Pershing and Chairman Kahn,- of the House Military Affairs Committee, the naval program Is almilarlv beine chomjed up. The House insists upon going' further than j the Senate in cutting' down naval ex penses and while ordinarily a contro versy between the Senate and House over military nd naval expenditures is settled1 by yielding to the Senate's de sires this time the sentiment in the House is almost too powerful to be dis posed of that way. Mos of the mem bers of the Republican and Democratic parties feel that their political lives are in danger if they do not cut down government expenditures sufficiently to permit of a substantial reduction in the tax rate. The demand tor economy is non-partisan but the Republican leaders know their " party will after all be heTd res ponsible in the next congressional elec tions. Vice-President Coolidge brought truthful tidings to thte cabinet meeting Some action from the executive to speed work on tariff and tax revision is certain to follow.
