LIKE ONLY STARS.
Film patrons in Birmingham are
seemingly only enthusiastic for
the well known stars of the
screen. The production itself
means little, provided that Doug
las Fairbanks, William Hart, Mary
Pickford, Clara Kimball Young or
other favorites are the featured
leads. In other words. to secure
good attendance the local motion
picture manager must secure pro-
auctions in which the leading play
er's name must be a household
theme.
This condition of affairs has been
apparent for sometime. "Rummy,"
Fine Arts production, a photo
play that brought out the most
enthusiastic of criticism from the
New York writers. failed miserably
at the Triangle theatre on Sunday
and yesterday simply through the
fact that Wilfred Lucas is prac-
tically an unknown film star To-
cally, although he is generally &C
knowledged to be one of the most
finished of actors playing before
the camera today by competent
judges. In Birmingham. however,
Wilfred Lucas cannot draw cor
poraPs guard while players of les
ser ability can pack the local
theatres to capacity.
For the general information OF the
focal film patrons, it is stated that
amongst the critical authorities of
photoplays throughout the country the
consensus of opinoon is that Fine
RI nh
perior to all other brands. There is
something distinctive about Fine
Arts photoplay, as well as those from
the Ince studios. 1t is an atmosphere
of refinement and there is always an
impression left upon those who view
the Triangle pictures that some degree
Of intelligence was manifested in the
filming of these exceptional photo
plays.
The film patrons of Birmingham
have yet to recognize the true artistic
merit of Fine Arts and Ince photo
plays and that is a condition of affairs
that is regretted by all sincere enthus-
lasts of the movies. If the people will
patronize the artistic and thought
provoking pictures of the Fine Arts
and Ince studios it is an encourage
ment for other companies to improve
their product. But as there is no
patronage the cry of cit is above their
heads" is successfully raised with the
result that some shoddy stuff is
screened to meet the so-called low
brow demand. That is a pity.
AN OPULENT ACTORINE.
From a clipping in the New York
World, the dear public is informed
that Theda Baras who succeeded
Laura Jean Libby in popularity with
the masses, is worth $500 clear of all
debts. Miss Bara recently appeared
at the office of Assistant Tax Com
missioner Becker of New York city
and admitted to being the possessor of
$500 without owing so much as a sou
of it to a dressmaker. She had been
assessed for $4,000, but her native
thrift overcame her desire to appear
to the world as that of wealthy so she
convinced Mr.. Becker that $500 was
the correct status of her secreted
earnings. Theda is still poor work
ing girl.

q the Triangle theatre today,
IN Home" a photoplay from
"a - the versatile pen of G. Gard
ner Sullivan, produced at. the Ince stu
dos with such popular favorites as
Miss Bessie Barriscale and Charles
Ray in the leading roles, will be pre-
scented. Home" is picture that en-
bodies very nearly the perfection of
motion picture artistry. 1t is well
acted, has very fine photography, and
its staging is at all time extremely in
good taste.
The story of Home is common
place itself, but it is presented in an
original manner. 1t is the old tale of
suddenly acquired wealth and its re-
sultant mugness of demeanor. With
such a theme c. Gardner Sullivan is at
his best, for his typewriter Is appar-
emily an inexhaustible fountain of
keen satire. In Home" his ridicule
of the newly rich is something that
will be enjoyed by all persons with a
sense of humor.
Other than Home" at the Triangle
theatre today, one of those uproai-
ously funny Keystone comedies that
have proved SO pleasing to the film
patrons in the past, will be shown.
THE HEART OF KURA-SAN."
At the Strand theatre THE Heart OF
Kura-San," a five-part Lasky produc-
ton, with SesSue HayaKawa and Myr-
tie Stedman in the leading roles, will
be shown. This picture was received
very favorably yesterday by large
audiences at the Strand theatre
"The Heart of Kura-San," presents
very romantic story with it's dra-
matte moments hanging on theme of
revenge, once the Japanese girl COM
mits "hara-kari," through being dis
honored by an American artist. Sessue
Hayakawa is still the polished player,
while the work of Miss Myrtle Sted-
man is familiar to all film patrons.
THE LAST MAN"
William Duncan and Mary Anderson
are the featured players in THE Last
Man. five-part Vitagraph produc-
ton at the Rialto theatre today. 1t
is purported to be a dramatic tale of
the adventures of group of explor-
ers on the edge of civilization. The
Vitagraph company announces that it
is the best photoplay of it's current
productions.
THE FALL OF A NATION"
Manager Thomas S. Abernethy is
assured that there will be whole
lot of patriotic enthusiasm
aroused over the presentation of
THE Fall of a Nation" at the
Strand theatre for the entire week
beginning next Monday morning.
In New York and Chicago the great
spectacle was the Mecca of many
thousands of patriotic Americans
who cheered the big scenes to the
echo. Thomas Dixon's play Gas
likewise Victor Herbert's accom-
panying music yibrates with gen
une Americanism. The author de-
scribes it as "a bugle call to arms
for the national defense" The
story is of an imaginary invasion
of the United States by foreign
power. After the defeat of our
puny army and the subsequent
usurpation of authority at Wash
ington, the women of the country
