STARS, ACTORS AND
MOVING PICTURES
By Beau Rialto.

New York, July 25.--Everybody, from
the president down, has been telling
about the big grain crop this year. 1t
may be a whale Of crop all right, but
it's no bigger than the actor crop Of
the season. Longacre Square is full Of
'em-actors and actresses. There are
as many Thespians and near Thespians
to the acre in that wonderful tract
along Broadway between Forty-second
and Fiftieth street these days as there
are waving, tassled cornstalks in the
western fields.
And they re all after the same thing.
Also they are all pulling the same old
bluffs. From morning-that is, theatri-
cal morning, which begins about 10 in
the morning-until night, the weary,
tired theatre folks are trodding the
pavements and climbing the stairs to
the agencies, in search of engagements.
Make no mistake regarding these
searehers. They are the ones who had
the ill fortune to be with short time
companies which ended early last sea
son; or they are the rank and file, the
chorus men and the chorus girls, and
the ones who have not risen higher than
small parts. These searchers must be
distinguished from the upper crust Of
Broadwayfarers.

1t is just this time every year that
the horde swoops down on Longacre
Square and contiguous sections of the
Gay White Way. It's the same old boast
and brag that they hand out. Here s
one who has several splendid contracts
she is designing to look over. No, she
ism t certain she IL sign any of them,
for none is just the sort Of part she
wants. That the reason she is going
the rounds, climbing the stairs and
making dreary waits in the outer offices
of the agencies. Here is another. He
had signed up at splendid figure to
star in new play, sut he quarrelled
with the manager at the last moment
because of this or that. Therefore he
is among the searchers.
And so it goes. They all tell the
same old story, and each believes the
other swallows it as gospel truth. As it
always the case in TheatriealdOm, how
ever, the members of the elan are hap
pier when they fool themselves. With
All their wOrldliness they are bad at
fooling others; they are as ingenious
as so many big babies.
The Searching season" opened in
force last Monday. They had been
streaming back for a week or more, but
during the past week the droves have
been denser, and any day or night they
can be seen. 1t seems there never
we're so many as this year. There are
more Westerners than usual If the
Chicago market has been drawn on fol
the extra numbers here, that mart OF
the theatrical trade must indeed be in
bad straits.

it ism It a show that would run through

Already Eleven Dead From Football

the printed newspaper reports,
three were hurt by tackles, three

by being bowled over by runners
not carrying the ball. OF the
three injured by tackles both are
reported as being injured AFTER
making the tackle, by piling or
by being kicked by runners rush
ing in after the tackle.
The manner of injuries is sig
nificant. They prove that there
yet remains the necessity for
changes in the rules.
Examining newspaper files for

there were 240 organized football

The final report for that sea-

not be surprising IL, on Novem-

United States fully 1900 games
of football by regularly organized
teams.
In reports of forty-two
games played by representa-

injury is mentioned.

drugs. You know how they must
upset your stomach and cause

many disagreeable effects of

that nothing else could cure.
We have the natural way of
curing disorders and chronic all

We cure with electricity.
The. reason drugs don't cure is
because they do not help nature.
Nature needs electricity nour-
ishment, something that builds
up. Drugs contain no nourish-

which tears down.
One way of curing Is to re-
store electricity where IL Is

THE JANUARY AMERICAN
MAGAZINE

Two very remarkable contributions
about the war appear in the January
American Magazine. One, by Ray
Stannard Baker, is entitled THE Last
Phase of the Great War" 1t is a fic-
ton story Of the German Invasion of
America i'm 1915-1916 and is sort of
imaginary history of the war sup
posed to be written one hundred
years hence. The United States
wins without any fighting at all and
the story of its victory is ingenious
and full of sense, humor and surprise.
The other contribution on the war is
entitled Hats Off to France!" 1t
is by Will Irwin, special correspond
ent of The American Magazine and it
reports the courage and GOODNESS with
which the French are taking part in
this war. One gains from this article
the impression that France is deter
mined and spOrtsmanlike to the last
degree
In the same issue Ida M. Tarbell
continues her new series of articles
entitled The Golden Rule in Bust
ness" In her present article she
writes under the title, 1.-The Gospel Of
Safety" and gives a complete account
Of the tremendous development OF the
safety development in American in
dustries. Cleveland Moffett writes
a wonderful account of the new inven-
ton by which moving pictures are
now taken under the sea. This in
vention opens the way to the recovery
OF hundreds Of millions of dollars
worth of lost treasures. Its benefit
to oceangraphers and science is of
course obvious. Stewart Edward
White. writing under the title, "A
Lion Adventure gives an account of
his personal experiences with wild
animals in Africa. A husband, who
has been married twenty-five years,
gives highly entertaining and sug-
gestive account Of his experience with
the problems of matrimony.
Fiction is contributed by David
Grayson, author of Adventures in
Contentment." in the way of a new
novel entitled "Hempfeld.' and there
are other stories by John A. Moriso,
Mollie Best and Maravene Thompson.
