the complications which resulted. MS
name being Temple, it naturally did not
occur to him that the general puplc
would associate the name with the
Temple Auditorium, but that's just
what happened, and people began tele-
phoning to ask IL the Temple church
choir was going into opera.
The first time this query was received
over the wire 1t was regarded as joke
the second time, as q very poor JOKE
and the third time as a catastrophe.
Temple fumed. He wanted to keep tina

prove a hoodoo. Finally he hit upon
compromise.

The chief difficulty heretofore IN
combining moving pictures and phono-
graph has been the inability of inven-
tors to attain synchronous action and
utterance. This difficulty, it is said,
now has been overcome. In other
words, the talking machine will keep
pace with the picture machine Thus
the action will be suited to the word
and a character in the canned play never
will be invited to sit down after he
already has done so.

SOME CARLElSMS

"a few lines taken from recent fifteen
minute Interview with Richard Carle, who
is being henpecked every night in his
musical comedy. "Mary's Lamb.'D!
I DON'T want to be a tragedian;
there's enough tragedy in try
u ing to be a comedian.
The actor only thinks he knows
what's funny; it's the audience that
really knows.
A good gesture is worth two bad
words.
I don't care who's talking on the
stage; If he'll only let me make mo-
tions I'll keep the eye of the audi
ence.
Many a man is amusing when he
doesn't strive to be, but it takes an
artist to be funny when he's trying.
One tug at the heartstrings may
make a drama, but it takes nun
dred laughs to make a comedy
If an actor has big feet he should
MT try to conceal them; let him ex-
aggerate his pedal eccentricity, then
his feet will become a blessing IN
stead of a curse.
Don't be too serious; joke may
prevent a tragedy.
Too many comedians spoil the mu-
steal comedy.
There is more humor in a CAP
driver than there is in clubman.

Fred Eustis, musical director of the

Dockstader, the minstrel man, are al
most doubles. In fact they have passed
for twins along the New York Rialto.
Naturally, when Eustis began to cir
culate about Los Angeles. where he Is
not so well known as he is in the east
he was hailed on all sides. especially by
Elks. as Dockstader. As he and Lew
are close personal friends, he was

Before he left Los Angeles to COM
plete his arrangements for bringing one
of the machines here, Mr.. Fischer as.
serted that the new machine would
enable him to present, for instance, a
big musical comedy, staged as such
productions are in New York. and
played and sung by the original New
York company. The pictures, he says,
are presented in their natural colors,
color photography having been enlisted
to this end; while the talking machine
is reported to reproduce the human
voice so clearly as to defy detecti on;
If these results are even approXimated

be worth millions to its owners.

These queries seem to be pertinent in
view of the departure for the east last
week of Herr Fischer, who is preparing
to introduce an amusement novelty in
Los Angeles of which big things are
predicted.
The Teutonic manager has secured
the Los Angeles rights to a new amuse-
ment device which may best be de-
scribed by saying that it is a combi-
nation of the moving picture machine

gold and there is no trouble to sell

fronted by the prospect OF a timber
famine before many years and il would

way we have devastated the vast
forest areas of the South in the last
twenty years, without the slightest
provision for making good the loss, is
one of the big economic crimes of
