CHRISTMAS SUICIDE

Admission, December 26.-(special)
Pete Dominique d. Antonio of Company
IL, u3th infantry, one of the drafted
men who were recently brought mere
from Midtown, n. j., was found suspend
ed from the limb of tree with a rope
around his neck. near the bayonet run
at Camp Mcclellan, late Tuesday even
ing. Life had been extinguished from
the body, which was removed and turned
over to the camp undertaker,s who have
prepared the remains for shipment to
Antonio's former home.
Antonio is known to have been very
emotional fellow. Earlier in the day he
had entered heartily into the Christmas
festivities, and, apparently. was in the
best of spirits, but when song had died
from his lips and he was removed from
the festive crowd, his thoughts went back
homeward and the realization that this
was his first Christmas he had ever
spent away from home and loved ones
was too much for him to bear, conse-
quently he is believed to have decided to
take his own life.

From Film Sun.
That the standard of excellence which
will necessarily result from open book
ing will make the picture game hard
for even the millionaire to break
into. and well-nigh impossible for the
average actor goes without saying. Quite
a few studio stars we could name are
drawing salaries equal to that paid to
the. President of the United States. A
dramatic director that isn't worth at
least thousand dollars a month isn't
worth considering. Continuity writer's
are paid anywhere from $4,000 to $1,000 a
year or more. Publicity directors are
demanding, and receiving, a wage COM
mensurate with the work they do and
the responsibility for success or failure
of picture which rests upon them.
Members of the supporting cast must
have attractive contracts and steady
work or they will be encouraged to de-
sert All these total only small part
of the cost of production. But it is
estimated that S10000,000 admissions a
week are paid to movies, so a good pic
ture soon pays for itself and has in
prospect after that a long and profitable
career. 1t is a good game. and getting
better, but there is no place in il for
