A family of eighteen. recently adjudged the largest in the city, must eat each meal ln three shifts because there's table room for only six at a time. The mother, Mrs. Robert Owens, has solved the problem of keeping the names and ages of her sixteen children straight by the use of a small notebook which she carries with her at all times. The book contains the vital statistics of the family and often saves embarrassment when neighbors or others ask questions. It's a big job, taking care of a fam ily of eighteen, Mrs. Owens says, es pecially when not one of tliem has full time emnlovment. Mr. Owens, who receives $45 for ten days' work month In the Queens Park department is the principal provider. There are twelve boys, but only three are old enough to work and at present they haven't any regular jobs. But the Owens manage to get along.

Now, about how I actually got started in this picture business. Ura. Rex Beach was really the one who helped me get started, by selling the Idea to Sam Goldwyn that he ought to star m in the movies. Mr. Goldwyn wa connected with the Eminent Authors, Inc. of which Rex Beach wa president There were eight eminent author la the outfit, maybe that' where they got the name, I guess. Anyway, Sara signed me up, and I starred In a eerie of 6 reel comedy dramas for him during 1921 and 1922. The outstanding picture of this group was "Jubllo" based on the theme of the song of that name. I also made "Doubling for Romeo" for this company. It wa the story of a cowhand who went to Bleep and dreamed he played Romeo ln Shakespeare's immortal drama. I like my work in this one a lot, but they bad a sales convention at the studio and showed the film to the gang.

As for food, Mrs. Owens does all her own baking and Is proud that her children are not "plckv." There is no particular dish they crave, and there are never any complaints. Mrs. Owens sums it up like this: "Them who don't want leaves and them who do eats." Mr. and Mrs. Owens, each forty-four- , were married when they were nineteen. Mr. Owens was getting $12 a week as a chauffeur when they were married. He was one of six children, and Mrs. Owens was one of five.
