After considerable parleying the
aviator said, “Ten you what I’ll do,
I .will take sou up for absolutely

ever stunts that I do in the air,
you will make no outcry \of any

are to pay me twenty-five dol

this. It seemed as if the aviaton
never did such daring stunt*—nose
dives, tail spins, and loop the loop,,
The passenger was perfectly quiet.
When.the aviator landed he toned,
to the Jew, took Ids hand, and'eom
plimented him on his daring, 1 ’

their names hint of fkngn ghosts.
A few are happily married, some
have sought seclusion at the corners,
of the earth, others still struggle on
in the film world, forever grasping
at that which has slipiied from them
forever—youth and fame. Several
hare dropped from riches to poverty.

Florence Turner.

was hers has faded with the rest o<

went to Europe because of poor health
and started her own film company.
Due to the waj it was a failure. All
kinds of misforftine followed, until
Marion Daives raised a fund to re

“For eight years I have fought to
come back," she said with tears in

Gene (Jauntier, once known round
the world as a star of the old Kalem
Company, now lives in‘seclusion at
Stockholm, Sweden.
- She, tooi, tried to come back, but
found conditions in the industry so
changed she could not succeed. For
awhile she tried reporting on the Kan
