Here's to your health, to your JOY, your
success.
For the boys Of your kind are too few.
There's something to gladden., to hearten
In a bunch Of reel Feliows' like YOU
So I pledge you again. and can say only

And 1t springs from a sentiment true

Harry Goldberg said that he wanted US
to put his name In this column, and say
that he expected Russian" business, but
wanted US to keep 1t the darkest kind Of
secret and that there would be a revoIu-
tion II II wasn't in. We didn't know that
anybody read this Junk" but then we
guess he must be suffering from Sum-
stroke.
Is there anybody at ALL anybody we say.
who has never heard the name Of Ella
Wheeler Wilcox? If SO they are either
deaf. dumb and blind, or else don't know
that they're alive. Anyway, the most Of US
have read her human poems, and now We
are to see her notable works In film form.
Don't know Just when 1t will be, but they
are In the making right now.
In the eighth episode of 1.-THE Railroad
Raiders" Helen Holmes makes her way
along the outside edge of a bridge, using
her hands only In full sight of the audi
ence without any cutbacks.. She then drops
atop of moving train and then the film
is cut. for when the scene was taken she
rolled to the edge and only just managed to
save herself from being thrown from the
roof Of the car she alighted on. 1t was
very close shave and enough of the film
has been left In the cutting to show her
going towards the edge. Talk about real
ism. Whew!

no. not for good, but just to make scenes

Knight" with Ora Carew In the lead. Yep.
the clown on stills will be there, lot Of
wild animals, clowns, acrobats and every
thing that goes to make up "the greatest
show on earth" And just think, they do
say that Nal st. Claire, who plays the part
of the. animal trainer, is thinner than SLIM
Summerville. It's pretty thin story any
way, but we'll bet it's a circus.
1t would be a good thing IL some people
who go to shows just owned ore for short
time. Wouldn't 1t make you mad, when you
are doing everything you can to give the
public a great big show for the money, and
then somebody always ''crabs?" That isn't
the worst part of 1t though, they get used
to that and Its just like water on a ducks
back. But this is the limit. People are
peculiar, even as you and l." and many
times we think we lose things certain places
when we later find them some other place.
The most common place TO think you lost
something is perhaps the picture show"
and did you ever go up to them and say
you were positive you had lost such and
such thing and it's funny they haven't 1t?
Why, the way some people act in a case of
this kind you would almost think that their
main object in running "picture" show

start in the secondhand business. Next
time. when you later find the article, tell

Speaking Of Pipe Dreams
II was the opening day of the base ball
season and all the movie men are there,
and speaking In a General" way the 'Mu-
tual' feeling Of joy was Universal" Sweet

the little "Bluebirds'' were twittering hither
and thither in yonder treetops, while the
"Butterflys" were fitting lazily from dan
delion to dandelon. large crowd was on

Gosh, 1t was hot, but Harry Goldberg in
sisted on setting in the Sun as he said
that was his favorte pastime. Just then
Ben Cutie passed the Magic" word that
the players had arrived and a shout went
