the people of Springfield will
come out to hear short sermons,

being interestingas well as short.
An additional hour could be put
in song service and otherwise
with an equal appreciation OF the
short sermon, all of which we
believe would gradually draw
the people to church.

4 GENERALLY excellent method OF
~ obtaining information from
celebrity is not to question the
interviewer. but to dlsarm him by sp-
parent Kindness and then lie in wait
for him. knowing full well that, sooner
or later. he will commit himself. But
when we went to talk with Viola Dana
we had set of questions prepared
in advance. If necessary, we were
going to use the methods OF regis
tration clerk and demand answers.
We wanted to know if Miss Dana's
hair was naturally curly. and if she
did those wonderful, weird dances in
her pictures or whether she had some
one double for her. and if she wasn't
afraid to run through a jungle full
Of scorpions and rattlesnakes in her
bare feet, and why the three little Flu
grath girls all took different names
for the stage, and why she gave up
the spoken drama, after her fine per

Girl and just as every one was going
into ecstasies over her sympathetic
voice.
We we're ushered into her dressing
room at the Metro studio, and there,
in an easy chair, we discovered little
girl with big blue eyes and curly
brown hair So we said, "How do you
do" pulled out our list of questions
and started in.

to Viola Dana said the diminutive
person. 81 am Shirley Mason"
And then Miss Dana entered, and
when the two got together the like
ness was more striking than ever.
Miss Dana is terribly upstage because
she is the taller. Shirley measures
feet II. and Viola is a quarter of an
inch taller; also, Miss Dana weighs
hound more than her little sister. For
sisters they are.
We didn't have time 10 ask Miss
Dana any questions. In fact, we for
got all about them, for she is just

leaned back in his chair and put the
tips of his fingers together, just as he
does on the screen. His manner indi-
Gated that he was about to launch into
narrative.
ayes, tell them about the policeman
who came and asked you if you really
got away with things at home as you
did on the screen. He seemed terribly
respondent, and said that he never
could get away with anything. Tell

He doesn't do tat home

hastily: "Oh, mean he doesn't try. He
never does anything that he should not

"Yes, indeed We do write, direct,

year. It keeps us busy getting ideas,
Of course. and if ! see any one who
looks as though he had a spark of in

ask him for scenario, or at least for
a synopsis We noticed that Mrs.
Drew did not ask us for any scenarios
or synopses.)
Tell them, dear, about what hard
work we have getting enough ideas for
our plays. You see. it's like this: In
reality, the plots in our pictures arc
nothing Mt all. You might turn the
camera on any we'll regulated family
almost any day in the year and get a
