More or Less Informal Activi-
ties of the People of the
Screen World

The longest trip on record ever made by
a motion-picture star to make a single
appearance in person is that taken re-
Gently by Francis X. Bushman, the
screens most popular leading man, now
seen in Quality-Metro features
After the completion of his newest pic
ture, "The Silent Voice." Mr.. Bushman
left the Quality Pictures Corporation pro-
ducing studio near Los Angeles, Cal, and
boarded a transcontinental flyer for New
York city. Mr.. Bushman arrived in New
York on a Saturday morning, appeared
that afternoon at the annual outing and
carnival OF the New York motion-picture
folk, and started back for the Pacific
Coast the next day.
All in all, Mr. Bushman made a trip OF
1000 miles just TO be seen by his metro
politan friends and admirers for a single
afternoon and evening.
Myrtle Stedman the popular star of the
oliver Morosco Photoplay Company, has
received the distinction Of being the first
woman elected TO become a member of the
newly organized Motion Picture Board Of
Trade OF America, which is composed of
prominent persons and firms in the vari-
Gus branches Of the industry.
AS soon as she read the advance an
nouncements of the formation of the
board, MISS Stedman Immediately wired
her application for membership, and is
very much pleased over the fact that she
is the first woman to be enrolled with
this new organization.

pany has discovered there are only nine

Governor Hunts of Arizona, the man
with a heart which is so much more
human than it was ever supposed a poll
tician's might be, has become a motion
picture devotee and starts right off on his
career before the camera with a bang,
good, big and generous.
Recently the powers that be of the
western branch of the Lubin Manufactur-
ing Company had under consideration the
production of a three-reel feature which
called for an impersonation of Governor
Hunt. The entire stock company had a
whack at making up, but the problem
was still there. As a last resort the Gov
ernor himself was approached. 1t was
thoroughly explained to him that ''his
presence was urgently needed, and he
acquiesced. The result is the debut Of a
new motion-picture player. no less than
the Governor himself, and in the Lubin
release Of November 8, "A Western Gov
ernors Humanity" the Governor of
Arizona is portrayed by Governor Hunt
or Arizona, and the director sits back
and wonders IL the harsh critic will tell
him the picture is miscast His wager
is ready.
