PLAZA

When the Butterfly picture, The Spindle of Life,' when comes to the Plaza theater today, was being made in Monterey, California, half the town turned out to welcome the players and their director on their arrival there. Director George Cochrane and the star. Ben Wilson, have many friends in Monterey, who learned with delieht that the company, with pretty Neva Gerber in the feminine lead, was com ing to spend the fortnight among them. They were met by d big crowd of townspeople and band, and escorted to their hotel with all the 'honors of war" Upon reaching the hotel. the CT wd refused to disperse until both Wilson and Cochrane had made q speech.
 An hour later the company was on the beach where twenty scenes were filmed with the most interested and enthusiastic audience of spectators, and the entire company were Urea ted like royalty during their visit to the tow.

COLUM BIA

Only a few feet, it is declared, show interiors. All the rest of it is outdoor photo- graphy and for this reason it has been labelled the first alI-outdoor picture ever made"
 Most of the scenes were taken in the Yosemite valley and other sections Of the Sierra Nevadas and the picture is said to contain some of the finest mountain photography ever registered by the camera. William Duncan. re- membered for his splendid work in Through the Wall" and other big Vii tagraph features, directed the picture and played the leading role. The heroine is Carol Holloway. Others in the cast are George Holt, Joe Ryan, one of the greatest riders in the world, and Walter Rodgers.
 An unique feature of the big picture is that Miss Holloway is the only wo- man character in the picture, and with the exception of a few crowd scenes, the only one who appears in it.
 The picture was eight months in the making and more than 1000 persons were used in one scene-the burning of a town. For this a modern town with more than 200 buildings was built just to have the torch applied to it.

 But when he was assigned the part of Laughing Louie," in "Grafters," a part so named because the chara cter never smiled, his fellow players got together with so many pieces of wit that MT. CrimminS was almost un- able to stand it. They 1idded him day in and day out during the making of the picture and the only way that he was able to keep from laughing was by getting angry and all one could see after completion of a scene was a lot of players scurrying for cover with Crimmins in pursuit He
