of Great Interest
Arrangements Made to Meet the De-

The Life Photo Film Company is now
ready TO release its big iivc-part feature.
The Bankers Daughter" No effort
was thought too great 10 make II supe-
rior IN production and photography to
any that has been released in the Amer
ican market at any time heretofore. and
no expense was spared in that direction.
AS an instance Of this. in THE Bankers
Daughter" there appears a scene of a
sun parlor, and in order to get the true
effect, the Life Photo Film Corporation
built glass sun parlor at Woodmere,
l.. l., so that exterior scenes to be seen
through the sun parlor should be more
accurately portrayed.
The cast included some Of the very
best actors on the legitimate stage as
well as in the motion picture profession.
Miss katherine La Sale, who PLAYED
opposite Edmund Breese in "The Master
Mind" the female lead with Thomas
Ross in the film production Of Check
ers" and is now understudy for Florence
Reed in THE Yellow Ticket" took the
title role. Mr.. David Wall, late of the

role Of Fritz Noodle. His characteriza-
tion Of this part is indeed comical and
the business he has injected into the pic
ture will make screams. Louise Willis,
another newcomer, plays the part Of the
widow with an original touch. The pho
tography is excellent.
The difference between the drama and
the motion picture. So far as the actor
is concerned, is indicated BY the case Of
John Bunny, the Vitagraph motion pic
ture star comedian. Less than FIVE years
ago he appeared at the Vitagraph The
ater on Broadway New York, which
was then called the Criterion. He sup
ported a mediocre star, dressed in the
basement dressing room with two othets
and received forty-hve dollars per week.
When Bunny returned to the Vitagraph
Theater few weeks ago he was the
star, famous throughout the entire civ
ilized world as the screens funniest
man, salary one thousand dollars per
week and of course, was given the
star dressing room all for himself. His
old star of few years ago is still barn
storming to poor business and contin-
ually talking about the grand old
drama" Bunny advises him TO forget
il" and recall that motion pictures are
the greatest form of modern entertain
ment, while many poor old barn
stormer has lost even that vocation
since the decline of the drama.
