DIRECTOR DEyTSES UNIQUE TRICK
 FOR BIG LAUGH

Donald Crisp, director of Bryant Washburn in "The Village Cut-Up," /" devised unique trick which is bound to get a tremendous laugh when it appears on the screen. MT. Crisp's s idea is strictly original never having been used in pictures before.
 The situation in the picture is this: Washburn, who appears as young clerk, has struck a good idea, and has an appointment with the board of di- rectors of a large corporation who are to consider purchasing his plan. He is terribly afraid of the coming or deal. As he walks down the hall to- ward the directors room, his cour- age oozes. He starts out bravely enough, but feels smaller and smaller, so that he is ready to run when he reaches the door.
 The picture will show just how he really felt as he tapped on the portal he appears about two inches high, with a giant door towering above.
 The idea marks another advance in the art and technique of the photo drama. It will undoubtedly be found useful time and again, and in all prob ability will become one of the stock stunts of the photoplay, like the close up and the double exposure.

JUST SOI

During the filming of ''The Test of Honor" John BarTymore's new Paramount picture, it became neces- sary in one scene to show an ap- partition in the jail where the hero Is serving for a murder he did not commit. A large, muscular actor was engaged for the part and Barrymore himself attended to his makeup. CT know the sort of face it would take to give me the creeps,' he said, land that's the sort of face I'll put on him." An hour later the actor was brought down before the director for inspection; and the unanimous yer dict of the company was that he had the most terrifying countenance they had yet seen. "Only lobster and mincepie produce a face like that" one of the actors said.

SHURERT.

Mischlevious little Mitzi, musical comedy star, is coming to the Shupert theatre, New Haven, for three days, starting Monday, in the new music play, Head Over Heels," of which the announced peculiarities make 1t evident that the time is coming when plays for Mitzi must be written by syndicate.
 At the first, a regular union oper- etta librettist could dash off his regu- lar o1d-line material and it would do' largely because after Mitzi had CO., quetted around in it a little and made it Mitzi-ish, it became so chaSg that her name should have been added as collaboration.
 A little later. as in "Sari," new de- velopments invariably crept into the story as Mitzi's dramatic instincts grew more definite, and it was only last season that one of the West s most erudite critics devoted his en- tire criticism of Mitzi to the predic- ton that not far in the future this youngster would largely subordinate the musical comedy type of perform ance and appear principally as a dra- mattc actress.
 With advance intelligence of this newest of Henry w. Savage's music plays with the superlative New York cast headed by Mitzi, it may be said that this precocious star, for Mitzi is now but 25 years old, has chosen to take still another step towards the dramatic. Head Over Heels' is the tale of a little foreign acrobat and the ups and downs of her circus life. Vir- tually a slave of the padrone Papa" of a travelling circus troupe, subject to the strap and other humiliations, love comes to her. Yet it is by no means a saddened butterfly of Mttzi seen in the new musical comedy and her powers as comedienne are rated now at their highest. She dances like 8 sprite as before, stands on her head with ease and is so sucily mischiev- ious she is not compared to any other player of her times.
 The cast supporting her is a long and important one and includes Rob- ert Emmett .Keane, Charles Judels, Dorothy MacKaye, Dorothy LaMar, Boyd Marshall, Irving Beebe, Carrie McManus, Cyril DuFor, Curtis Karpe, the Runaway Four Troupe of Aero bats, and a group of girls sufficiently charming to be called an "ensemble" and not chorus as Is usual.

ANIMAL COMEDIES
 HAVE NEW RECRUIT

Mack Sennett's comedy menagerTe has a new recruit. He is a little white bulldog with a caved-in map, some thing like that of the new German frontiers. He has a funny little tail that insists upon wagging him, and his middle name is Mike. The first day Mike-he is called by his middle name exclusively, inasmuch as nobody knows his first or last name-was on the lot, he had chased every cat in the place up on the roof; had fight with the pelican, and half drowned himself in the tank. Then he found a smooth round can which excited his indignation because he couldn't seem to get his teeth around it. Growing furiously he dove through two pieces of scenery after it and finally wound up the chase by upsetting a camera and g. cameraman in the middle of scene. Altogether, Mike may be said to have impressed himself upon the motion picture industry.

ALL WORK

After finishing four pictures with hardly. a moment of rest between them, Lila Lee had begun to think life as a motion picture actress was all work and no play. After the fourth picture. however, she took a trip to New York, had a lively time and then returned more than anxious to get back to work. Two or three times she was all ready to start and some unexpected event would hold her up. This time she began to think that she would never get to work again and she now craVed to be before the camera again as much as she had hitherto longed for a va vation. After starting "Rustling a Bride" however, she was very hap py and decided she had much rath- CT be at work all the time as her long rest completely cured her of the vacation fever.

MASTER OF CAMsRACRAFT

Irwin Willat, who directed Lila Lee in 'Rustling Q Bride" besides being one of the most able directors in the country, is also a master of the cam era. MT. Willat started his career as a cameraman and while in that branch of motion picture work de- Vlsed many new and original ideas and tricks that have since been used throughout the industry. This knowl- edge is of great value to him in his work as a director, for besides get ting the best results out of his play CTS and his story, he can also super wise the mechanical work of his cam eraman and thus insure in each of his pictures an artistic triumph He also directed "The False Faces

ONCE UPON A TIME

Tommy Mcfarland, once faced Ad Wolgast and came near winning the worlds championship; now Toarny. IS appearing in Paramount-Sennett comedies. He faced the tiIe-holder without a culver, but he was scared stiff when the director ordered him to kiss girl the other day in a scene. Nothing doing" said Tommy wildly It was finally compromised by permitting him to kiss the pretty maiden on the cheek. After it was over he wiped the cold perspiration from his brow and said, Gee, I am going to quit this job and go back to fighting. IA late dispatch says that Tommy is now acclimated, and willing to kiss even when the camera isn't turning.

EMPIRE.

Thomas H. Ince has produced an other stirring drama of big city life in 'The Law of Men, the latest star ring vehicle for beautiful little Enid Bennett, in which Niles Welch plays the leading male role, heading a fine cast. Fred Niblo directed and the story is by John Lynch, with scenario by Ella Stuart Carson. George Barnes did the photographic work.
 The features of the picture, which are shown at the Empire theatre to- day, are, among others, the role of the star, as a modeler in clay, who also moulds several human lives; the romantic atmosphere of Washington Square, New York; a trap in a road house near the city; a sensational murder trial and dramatic confes- sion, etc.
 Miss Bennett Is declared to have been supplied in this production with one of the strongest roles she has ever had and her innumerable Paramount admirers will find that she is highly effective in the tense situations which call upon her for histrionic work of no mean order.
 Perhaps the most striking feature is the Bohemian Atmosphere of the Latin Quarter of Manhattan, and Miss Bennett's support is excellent.

Few artists of the stage or screen have had a more interesting or more colorful career than Margaret Marsh who played the leading role in Gold wyn's perturbation of "The Eternal Magdalene." When a mere child she had scored a, pronounced hit in comic opera. Little is 1t known that Miss Marsh appeared with Raymond Hitchcock in '"The Mascot and was the medium for her debut before the public. Following her success with Hitchcock Miss Marsh was seen to good advantage in several other sue cessful Broadway productions and was a prominent member of the Morosco Stock company of Los Anre- les for many months.

and cut 'em back over Chickasha.
We split the flock when we were
right over town and chased half of
them on east and then rounded
them up again and drove them over
the town again. They got pretty
tired and we drove a couple of them
