HAS PLENTY OF WORK
Bays Movio Life Is Not One
of Ease But of Real,
Hard Labor
To rise from "extra" to lending
lady in half an hour all because
being a blondot
TWs wan the most "unreal" of tho
"real" expcrlcncis of MIbm Thelmn
I'rico, Tulsa high school girl who,
while In Im Aiicelcs on n Malt
to
Mr. and Mrs. W. A Lombard, for
trior Tulsans. becamo infected with
tne mm fever, enlintcd as nn ' Vx
tra" with n. comedy company, and
wns finishing a plcturo an "lead" to
l.ildio Polo when ho was call o J
Jack to this clt two wcMs ago by
jne uinees or jier moliier ,Mr. A. 1
I'rlce, 603 North Cheyenne..
Mlsa Prlco went to California In
March and through an acquaintance
01 mo i.ororjnrii nccamo an "extra
in tho Frances Ford firm conmitiv
nt J7.C0 per day. Tor about ten weeks
line am service as a rjauilnir neauty
In ball room costume, and In tho viir
lous roles In which fernlnlno qonii
looks aro employed In he. films fun
ny. WJion she chanced td tho Hank
Mann company hur work was similar.
Then one fair day Miss Price, whq
nas very somen nair ana very Wue
eyes, was seen by ICildln Polo, one
of the few movie1 actors who does not
need to uso much iuako-up because
he Is so dark of complexion and who
always chooses a blondo co-nta for
the satno reason. Polo sawher one
noon ns sho was hurrying from
luncheon alone; tho Btreet at Holly
wood, went to tho studio which idio
yrtorcd, and nsked the director to
'call forth all tho blondes. This tho
director did, one by one, tho lout ono
neing .miss i'rico. nno was promptly
enpngea to piay mo leaning mem
inlno role In tho serial. "Circus Tlfo"
at J100 a week and with all a,ttlre
xumisncu.
The plcturo was "shot" nt Untver
pal City and at I.os Anccles, Mlxs
Price said. Ilor part wan that of
vlllago girl Into whose home a cir
cus performer Is brought for care
Vafter an accident "under tho big
top . xuo Kin marries tne perform-.
er ana enters circus urn with mm
further complications of plot being
caused by her Jealousy of a hart-
back rider who turns out to bo tho
kidnapped sister of the hero. This
picture has not yet been roleased
and may be marketed under nnotlicr
title.
Such luck as hers seems to be tho
usual reason far tho rise of stars In
the film firmament. In Miss Price's
opinion. "Good looks aro not abso
lutely necessary." she said last week,
"You need not bo a 'raving' beauty
nt all. It's all in the way you pluito
graph that and hick or 'pull.' Bomo
actors nna actresses aro in reality
nuiio nomeiy. but tney 'screon' well
In movie parlance. Moststara tiro
not quite as good-looking off tho
screen na on."
I.lttlo stagoofrlght was folt by
Miss Price. "1 was Juiit a bit self
conscious at first, but soon got over
it," sue saia. Tilings In the movies
aroTiot always what thoy seem. Miss
Price stated. An oxamplo of "trick
work" was tho filming of her in tho
circus scenes In "Circus Life", An
she could not ride, she was photo
graphed only on horseback or In the
act oi mounting or dismounting
from a horso. whllo a doublo did I ho
bareback riding stwnts. Another falso
idea which Miss I'rico exploded was
that of frequent rehearsals. 'They
don't rchearso the play In advance
No, lndecdy. They Just rehearse euch
scene beforo tho 'shooting' of that
scene, and that Is all."
Life in the films Is not all play and
no work, as Miss Prlco described It.
"Sometimos wo had to work at nig it,
making pictures at 2 o'clock In 'he
morning. Tho late or early pic
tures wero for those scenes sun
posed toVccur in tho evonlng or at
night. At tho closo of the day's work
the director told oach ono what time
ho wanted him or her next dny. say
ing, for oxamplo, 'I wont you on this
set at a. m. snarp.-
An unpleasant featuro Is tho dls
ostrous effect on tho eyes of
"clcague light," a light by which all
scenes aro taken both by day and
flight ."Though this light throws a
soft illumination. It causes a con
dition slongily termed 'cleogue
eyes' ", causing almost everybody to
don colored glasses for rehearsals.
And O yes, girls, Miss Price had a
"flato" with Wallace Hem, wno es
corted her to the initial showing
In Los Angelos of "Sick Abed", his
own stellar vehicle shown at the
Palace theater rocontly. "Unit It's
being done In California having en
gagements with movie stars," Miss
Price uald.The girls out California
way don't consider tho event so very
momentous."
Miss Prlco will probably not enter
mo movies, tnougn sno wants to, do
cause her father objects, Bho Is a
Junior at high school and 'most 19 as
to age.

Friends of Irish Freedom
Will Keep Out of all
PoRtics, They Say
Following: the example of the na
tional council of tho organization.
tne local branch of the friends of
Irish Freedom nt a meeting held
Sunday nfternoon In the office of
A. F. Sweeney In the . HoblnsotM"
building decided to tnko no part In
local or state politics but at the samo
time took a strong stand 'against
randldates that favored the league
of nations In their fight for national
offices. '
Tho following tcsolutlons recently
adopted by the national counclr wore
unanimously endorsed at yesterday's
meeting:
First That thero Is Just cause
for gratification in the raut that
thn first organized expression of
opposition to tho league of nations
was made by tho Irish Itacb con
vention held nt Philadelphia on
tho 2 2d of February, 191S).
Second That that expression
was glve'n effect by the senate of
the" United States when In con
formity with an amused public,
opinion and with patriotic deter
mination to protect American In-
Biiiuiiuun it rriuseu lu rtilliy llie
trout v nrnnnsed hv the ir.lilent.
Third That in view of tho fact
that tho great political turtles
hiivo by their platforms sujd pro
nouncements made the league of
nations tho paramount Issim of tho
pending political, campaign tho
time has arrived for all friends
of Irish freedom who ore Imbued
wltia, the true spirit of Amurlcin
patriotism and preserving our In
stitutions from tho dangers and
treacheries of Kuropean schemes
and entanglements to vote against
tho party and lis candidates for
national offices by whom the lea
gun may be sponsored lind advo
cated. Fourth That wo regard this as
a sacred duty to our cause and to
our American citizenship und that
Its performance In no wise con

Individual selection for statu and
local offices.
Fifth That copies of this reso
lution be sent to all branches of
