There is a notable company of players to support them, too, including James Xeill, Olga Grey, Billy Elmer and Edythe Chapman.

Miss Martin was recently the heroine of a singular story of the studios and even now she grows embarrassed if anyone hints that it is time for prayers. In the play before the camera Miss Martin was supposed to be a little girl going to bed. It happened that there was a little girl at the studios who stood by her mother and watched the young star's actions. When Miss Martin had tumbled into bed the little girl pulled her mother's dress and said: "That isn't a nice little girl, mamma, 'cause she didn't say her prayers." Miss Martin has not heard the last of that yet and the members of the company get her hopping mad by murmuring in her hearing: "Xot a nice little girl, you know." "The Girl at Home" had excellent reviews in the Xew York papers. THE WHITE INC.

This is mentioned because the last time there was occasion to mention her age, the writer did not know it and could not find out. Her birthday is July 20. Just by way of comparison, she is five feet, six inches tall, while Virginia Pearson is an inch and a half greater in height.

"The Tiger Woman" tells its own story in the title and Miss Bara of course is the heroine. 1 TT National Bank i The Reno To see Evelyn Selbie in the moving pictures at the Grand tomorrow will recall old days in Reno for Miss Selbie was a popular member of Paul Harvey's stock company at the Grand when that theatre was in the transition period and- had broken away from vaudeville. It has nothing to do with Miss Selbie, of course, but speaking of vaudeville, now that Reno has so And Marie Doro is to be "with us again." She is billed in "Heart's Desire," a Famous Players' production, at the Grand theatre next Friday and Saturday evenings. Once having seen this charming, dainty little woman in real life, one is never likely to forget her. She is great on the screen but it would be a delight to see her on the stage again, of which, however, there appears to be little likelihood.

For a time Elliott Dexter, her husband, was always cast for leading roles with her, but now the producers have acquired a better knowledge of what the public desires and in "Hearts Desire" there is Bank of Nevada Savings Trust Company RENO, NEVADA Paid Up Capital $800,000.00 THE BIG BANK OF THE INTERKOUNTAIN SECTION Deposits over $4, 00 9,0 00 much of it again, the old show at the Grand was a very fair one and used to draw big houses for that time.

But the interesting members of the cast to old-time movie fans will undoubtedly be Jean Gauntier, who was almost the pioneer of moving pitcure.heroines in the United States. She was with Kalem for a long time, then went to England and then organized her own company. She was the first producer of her own pho tion sketch.
