 It is always interesting to the many Birmingham friends of Mir. Henry B. walthall, the noted film star, to hear news of him and the following comph- mentary notice in a popular New York journal, will be eagerly read by scores of his admirers:
 ''Another member of the family that produced Henry B. Waithall,j The Mans field of the Movies, has cast his lot with the film industry.
 "W C. Brandon, Atlanta manager of the V. L. S. E., announces that Wallace waIthan has been appointed to a posi- ton in the booking department of that exchange. Happily, the announcement was deferred to be given out at a dinner tendered the famous Henry B. by the Atlanta Screen club recently. The Essa- nay star was making visit to his home in Columbiana, and on his way back to Chicago stopped off for two days in At lanta where he was feted by the Screen club.
 fhat tha a family must be gifted with an aptitude for motion picture work, for Wallace is already making remarkable strides.
