Rainy Days Utilized

Saving dates for a rainy day IL
new enterprise that has come into
fashion since motion pictu.es were
invented. and Is only popular among
motion picture actors. During the
early days OF picture making no film
could be made on rainy days because
there was not light enough. The
result was that the players were all
given days of when It rained and
we're able to take advantage Of the
holiday to devote themselves to pri-
vate business. With the perfection
of studio lighting rain ceased to in
terfere with the making of interior
scenes. and the camera has been
brought to such a state OF perfection
that II does not interfere much with
exterior scenes. Yet no director will
make exteriors even nowadays in
the rain unless the script calls for
them or IT cannot be avoided.
Consequently. as many scenes In
every photoDlay are made out Of
doors. the rainy day still plays an
important part In the lives of the
actors and actresses. and they are
released from their ordinary duties.
Hamilton Reyelle. who has, Just ap-
peared here In motion pictures. but

bers of the famous Ambrosia Photo

Italian actors make all their en-
gagements for rainy days.

set for rainy days. Thus an actor
promises to call on a friend on the

the next rainy day. and so on. These
