Expects "Chu Chin Chow"
To Run for Three Years

American managers are not the only
ones who indulge in more or less polite
persiflage while playing the theatri-
cal game, as many who have tried to
win IN London have learned. Recently
Laurillard & Grossmith, the London
managers, posted notice on the call
board of His Majesty's Theatre to the
effect that they would become lessees
and managers Of that handsome plav-
house at the conclusion of the remark
able run of "Chu Chin Chow" which
IS now rounding out its second sue
cessful year IN the British METROPOLIS.
Thereupon Mr.. Oscar Asche. who is
the author Of this musical tale of the
East" as we'll as present manager Of
HIS Majesty's, posted facetious post
script to this notice, as follows:
We should worry! 'Chu Chin Chow,

How Little Mary Spends
Her Time 'Tueen Pictures

Ordinarily the period known a.,
tween pictures" and which is the
interval from the ending Of one film
to the beginning of another, is time
of rest, recuperation and diversion.
But for Mary Pickford, who recently
completed "Amarilly of Clothes-Linc
Alley" her latest Aircraft picture
under the direction Of Marshall Ncilan,
1t was none of these things. There
was just about a weeks time till
"M'liss was started. Five days of this
were spent by the Aircraft star in
being photographed for special pict-
ures at her Hollywood home. The
photographer shared the week with
dressmakers and the Pickford dentist.
Unfortunately, stars Of the screen are
also subject to those ills of the flesh
which call for visits to the chair OF
thrills and drills.
Then, just about the time "America's
Sweetheart" had become accustomed
to the daily round of fittings and sit
tings, the call came from the studio
that it was time to begin shooting"
on 'M'liss' and, as a matter Of fact,
Miss Pickford was quite glad to get
started again. In fact, no o'clock
factory whistle ever found more
willing respondent.

Elsie Ferguson will be seen at the
Rivoli this week in "Thc Song of Songs"
Theatregoers here are familiar with
Edward Sheldon's play from which
Charles Maigne made the Aircraft
screen version for Miss Ferguson, and
many others have read the original
Sudermann novel from which Sheldon
adapted the play. The role Of Lily

Out of the Mouth of Babes

One day recently little Mary McAlis-
ter made public appearance which was
quite impromptu and about which she
knew nothing Even now she does not
know that it happened.
At risk of getting ourself thor
oughly disliked by doting mammas we
are going to start off by saying that
we do not like the average stage child.
Haywood Broun spoke q wonderful
truth when he said that, watching the
colored players, his one thought was
that all children should be born black
because they were SO much better be-
haved than the white ones.
That is the way we feel about it, zoo,
so it was not with any great amour,
of anticipatory pleasure that we went
to keep an appointment which had
been made for us to meet this child
wonder of the screen, Mary McAlister.
1t was in the reception room of the
Hotel Astor that we first saw Mary,
and before we had been there five
minutes every one in the place had
learned that the little star was there
and had come in to listen and to look.
Mary'is a beauty, but quite a diff
fcrent sort Of beauty. She hasn't any
red checks, no big blue eyes or curls.
She has pale ivory skin and large
black eyes and pale yellow hair, which
is clipped. And she is very dignificd
and yet cordial. Without any prompt
ing this is what Mary said: ain my es-
timation New York far surpasses Chi
cago. Your transportation facilities
are indeed superior. (We wondered if
Mary had yet ridden on Seventh Ave
nue. carr You see, in Chicago we have
no subway, and our buses run just
when they please. I adore riding on
your buses, and shopping in Fifth
Avenue is such fun.
"And then your theatres are so nice.
Sweetie and I (she calls her mother
Sweetie) )-Sweetie and I go to see
everything. One must, you know, to
get the right perspective. Don't ask
me which I prefer, the spoken or the
silent drama, for don't know. They
are SO different. In the pictures one
has the advantage of variety of stage
settings and the exteriors which are
always lovely; but, on the other hand,
one must rely absolutely on ones ex-
pressions to portray ones emotions,
while on the stage one has the advan-
tage Of the voice."
Yes, little Mary McAlister, aged
seven, said all of this, and she hadn't
learned it, either. She had thought it
all out for herself. "Of course" she
continued, "there is no indecision in
my mind as to my future course I
never should care to do anything but
pictures. love them, and I am quite
miserable if do not work for few
days.
''Isn't it funny when we are young it
is so difficult for us to understand that

owe all of my success to Sweetic."
Here "Sweetie" appeared with some
pictures Of her brilliant young daugh-
ter, and there was one of Bobo, Bos-
ton bull, which is the special protsge Of
Mary. This started Mary off on an
other train of thought
