Famous Star ~ InBrief Visit To London Norma Talmadge Speaks Her Mind in Love, Money and Hitler LONDON ~ For the past seven days one of the greatest film stars the world has ever rown has been in London, staying a. a big hotel, going to first nights and films, Nobody no- ticed her -- Miss Normp Talmadge, « .* Officially she was due to arrive in "this country some time next week, Actually she came last Saturday, And left again for New York yesterday af ternoon in the liner Paris, "Negotiations for her to play lead in a talkie remake of the famous old British silent film, "Somehow Gaod," fell through. She did not like the part suggested another, and decided to go home to Palm Beach while it is being prepared. Thomas Meighai., ou was to have - been her leading ran, goes too. , Norma Talmadg: Is something of a philosopher, She has decided views on Love, Money and Hitler, 2 I talked to her fur an hour and came away with these comments, 3t is high time we put love in its proper place. It isn't all that import. ant. Nowadays: .e are beginning to _ treat the thing sanely, "A girl Is no longer ruined for life because she has an unfortun- "ate love affalr, or because her * marriage doesn't work out right. She as other things to thin' about. I haven't any patience with the fools "who keep on-ge.ting married and di- vorced, and married again. These film stars who lose all their money in the market and then go a- round whiting about 't make me tired. 7 If you've jot the brains and 'the ability to make money you should be able tc keep it. I think movie actresses who make fortunes (and they earn them) should be compelled by law to put them into ~ trust-funds, and stop making public] nuisances of themselves. 3 "I don't like that man, It's not right . to teach young peopl to be vengeful, intolerant, and militarist., The young should be taught to be tolerant -- to understand the point of -iew of others. Norma Talmadge is thirty-seven. She looks twenty-seven. She is tanned brown by the sun, and "the spirit of an unconquerable optim- ism sparkles in her black eyes. - She started her film career at Brookly., beforc they'd eve "thought of Hollywood. ? "I've seen the great stars come and I've seen them go," she says. "The only difference is that they ar- rive quicker -- and they go quicker -- nowadays. ~~~ "They make their stars overnight, and forget about them overnight. They haven't even time to find out whether the public like them or not o's o It's hard on a young girl. . +." ) tpi eerie eion " Famous Oaks The Spectator. --Some years agy ! called attention to a charming instance of continuity and tradition in English county an- nals: Sir George Courthope was re- pairing Westminster Hall with oak from the same wood that had sup- "plied the original timber 600 years earlier, .. ., "The question is suggested, how old can a tree be? Elwes, wher was a . great authority, gave 2,000 years to this famous Whiligh Oak, but I should dofibt whether any authority of to-day would accept his record, would even grant him" halt his estimate, Trees of a thousand years old are pointed 'out to one in many parts of the world: certain olives for examples in Majorca and the "dragon iree" in the garden of Government House in Gibralter. The round number comes sweetly to the lips. ; Probably the olive lives to.as good, or green, an old age as any European ' tree, and the gargoyles of the trunks often grin "like rn antic," mocking at time, They may se. a thousand years out; but ~ should doubt whether any single .tree in Britain is known to be a thousand years old. . suppose the palm would go to the oaks -- the oaks, say, of Aldermaston in Berkshire, of Hatfield in Herts, of Whiligh on the Sir George - Courthope, whose 'amily records In * Burrey predate most tsees, might have some material help for the tree bio- grapher, z 18 Months--Drives Car LONDON. -- Bighteen-month-old Pe- _ter Aldridge, of Oftchurch, Leaming- ton, Warwickshire, is the youngest motorist in Britain, ' He owns a car-and- drives it round the grounds of his father's house, "It is a real motor car in miniature, with reverse and forward gears, elec: tric headlamps, tra c¢ indicatora and brakes; The car {s driven by an elec- tric motor, - Its highest speed Is eight miles an hour, 'Peter's . father is a keen motorist "and owns a car capable of 86 m.p.h.

Charles McCrea Lauded By Leaders of Mining Industry Toronto.--A remarkable tribute was recently paid to the Hon. Charles\ Mc- Crea at the King Edward Hotel by the leaders of Ontario's mining industry. No man has contributed more to the opening up and upbuilding of the north country than the Minister of Mines, who hails from the Sudbury nickel belt, and who for-ten years has been the alert and forceful backer of the mineral industry, an inspiration to engineers and prospectors engaged In the development of the north, and thus a benefactor of *he whole province and of tho entire. Dominion. But for the sympathetic leadership given by Mr. McCrea, the Ortario gold min. industry could scarcely have reached its present proportions. Nor could the base metal industry have grown as it has, But for this country's greatly ex- panded gold production the Canadian Treasury might not have been able to maintain the national credit or to meet its obligations abroad during the depression. Nor should it be forg ten' that those engaged in the mini industry are by no means the ly section of the community to. benefit from this industry. The mines of New Ontario utilize a tremendous amount of food, clothing, boots and shoes and other products of Ontario factories. The -mines thus give employment, di- rectly and indirectly, to large num- bers of our people. As the protector of the mining industry, Mr, McGrea has 'proved an invalugble friend not only to Canadian mining men, but to the country 'as a whole. | <a ~~ Ca md 'The California Boller Maker'- "Among the thousands who use Omega Oil as a daily rub.down, no one thinks more of it than I do.
