NEW YORK, Sept. lG.-Thc growth
of the movies and the appeal the
film drama has with the public is ably
illustrated by the sale recently of the
Dramatic Mirror. At one time IT was
the actors Bible almost. They looked
forward to it as they did to holidays
and to regular three meal day fare.
Not long ago it dropped its vaude-
Vile department, which was once its
chief feature and the space was de-
voted to the screen. Gradually the
screen news began to encroach upon
the legitimate drama-page by page.
And then came the announcement that
it had been bought by moving picture
interests and would be devoted ex-
clusyely to the movie world.
Frederick Schrader has left the edi-
torial chair He is known to every
actor and actress probably in the
world as is also his wife who wrote
for the Mirror and resigned at the
same time. It is one of the oldest
stage weeklies in the United States.
Not long ago man with a craze
for discovering new things found that
New York newspapers were printing
twice as much news about the NOV
ing picture industry as about the legit-
innate drama-and so II goes. Three
years ago l predicted that the movie
craze had reached the top pinnacle of
its popularity and that in five years
