a novel use Of the motion picture

turous career as a soldier Of fortune
in all corners Of the world Bronson
Howard came in contact with many
little known phases Of life and the
knowledge thus gained has been Of in
estimable value to him since he set
tied down to gain fame by his pen.
His 'fNorry, Diplomatic Agent" served
to expose the workings OF the interna-

society crooks were uncovered in "An
Enemy to Society" and "The Only
Law" which Arnold DAILY recently re-
yived as 1.-THE Double Cross"
Now, in his first motion picture
series. TO be known as "The Love
Pirates" the novelist plans to shed
light on the many schemes used by
clever sharpers who prey on the
wealthy and supposedly sophisticated.
He has chosen for his leading charac-
tiers two pretty young women who
use their wits to gain a livelihood at
the G Of those whom they find
worthy Of punishment. The adroit
schemes which they use in the our
of the fifteen episodes Of the series
are well known to higher police Of
ficials but they are certain to prove
a revelation TO picture spectators who
will at the same delight in seeing
them applied to INSCRIPTIONS men Of
wealth deserving of the fate meted

COMEDY
Stunt is Performed by the
Ohio State Board of

The vagaries Of official moving pic
ture censor boards are often past I'M
Outstanding. For instance the Ohio
board Of censors last week ordered a
scene eliminated from "a Boy at the
Throttle" a Hazard Of Helen" re-
lease. When the Kalem officials we're
first informed OF the order they were
stunned. Knowing the picture. they
could not image what sccre could have
aroused the censor's ire. Then when
the official order arrived they turned
quickly to the description of the scene

to figure where the danger to morals
lay in having an engineer show his
son how to run an engine.

GR|FF|THS FILM
BREAKS ALL
RECORDS
More Than Five Million People
Have Seen "The Birth
of a Nation.

D. W. Grifith's wonder spectacle,
1.-THE Birth of a Nation" has just
closed at the Liberty theater the most
remarkable run ever known in the
history OF the American drama and
which also sets a new high record for
long runs in New York City. The
great production was presented in
New York for 8O4 consecutive per-
formances to a gross attendance OF
S72, 900 people. James Metcalf, the
master critic OF Life, estimates from
these figures that one in every four
O fthe available theatergoers OF the
metropolis saw GriGith's masterpiece
before its New York run ended.
Former Records.
The former record Of the New York
stage was held by Hoyt's "a Trip to
Chinatown" which ended a u Of $40
performances in August, 1893. Prior
to that Henry E. Dixey in "Adonls"
held the record for 654 performances.
The nearest modern approach to this
was the record of Laurette Taylor in
Peg O. My Heart" who ran for 6O4
performances in 1924.
The prices for the Griffith spectacle,
which was the first combination Of
the photodrama and musical spectacle
ever given to the world, ranged from
twenty-five cents to $500. The aver
age paid attendance was about seven
ty-eight cents per capita, making a
total gross receipts for the New York
run OF over 100000. This is the
greatest take for this space Of time
ever known by any theatrical Offer
ing in the world as these figures have
been amplified by record breaking
runs simultaneously in Chicago, Bos-
ton. Philadelphia, Pittsburg, st. Louis
and Atlantic City, N. ]. About this

from coast to coast.
In "Kilmeny," Miss Ulrich made
her screen debut for the Morosco-
Paramount organization. Her success
in this photoplay is a matter Of film
history. Other stars might have made
"Kilmeny" attractive on the stage, but
1t took the powers Of an Ulrich to
make her adorable or the screen. AS
the waif Of the woods, q pal OF rab-
bits, birds, wolf cubs and other ami
mails of the forest, she appeared in
scenes Of unaffected charm and heart
appeal. Dramatic scenes were most
effectively portrayed by the little star
in a manner that bespoke of wide
versatility.
Miss Ulrich's next Paramount pic
ture will be released the early part OF
March. It was secured with Mexican
surroundings and is very dramatic
and thrilling.
