DECLARE CHEROKEE
ROADS AN INSPIRATION

Gafincy, May 18.-Two York Coun-
ty citizens who were in Gaffney re-
Gently said that the good roads of
Cherokee are an inspiration, and that
they intended to return to York and
tell what they had seen here in the
way of good roads, and would insist
that York follow Cherokee's example.
If Tork's officials wish any informa-
tion on the subject of good roads they
have most cordial invitation to visit
Cherokee at any time ana take trip
over the best roads in the State.

Crawford Bros. Big Show.

Tonight Crawford Bros. Show will
close its weeks engagement in Butler
and we believe that in justice to the
management and players we should
say few words regarding the show.
The Star editor has known the Craw-
fords fouryesp and during that period
we have heard and seen much OF the
show. What we have heard leads US
TO believe that the Crawfords have a
well established reputation as live
wire, whole souled set OF show people
and what we have seen convinces us
that the show Ia keeping pace with
the public. Here in Butler the people
have been royalty entertained and the
show has drawn many from surround
ing towns. They have played to a
full house every night and the people
appear as well pleased with the Craw-
fords as the Crawfords are with Butler.

STORIES ABOUT SEA THAT EOU LIKE 20 SEE SHINE

Here is a play in which physical action is c:nDaotically second in i'm. portonce to the neaAal and spiritual thought, and very elevated thought &c that. How wonderfully GIr. Tue ler has transmitted that to the fiIIni the world knowE and the success oi Tho Miracle Man is ia no small part 6ue to the discovery on the part ot the public that a director Eaa brought forward all important discovery and given them 0 novelty.
 "Of course Mir Tucker :s not t.a first who I.Gs discovered that we cnIl photograph thought-the spiritual and mental impulses of our being. But I think he has gone further in that direction than any other man iu his calling.
 After ail, the only powerful drama is that provided by the mental clash, How yapid are some of the physical combats of the screen because there is no logical mental cause back o4 then1I As we come to the reaiiza7 ton that we do not have to keep the eye dancing with physical action reflected on the screen, what wealth of material in our library and the minds of picture people heretofore thought unavailable for pictures is before us.''

that will pass muster must learn by careful study and work how to meet the special requirements of screen drama. As many of our best books are not adapted to screening, so many of our best novelists are not able to turn their hands to the special form of stories required by the makers Ot
 motion pictures. This is why some of the noVeIists who have failed to meet success in the new field have turned savagely on the picture mak- CT and acclaimed that the work of the best authors was not desired. We are happy indeed when recognized authors come to the point where they realize that they must learn the technique of picture production;
 when they do that it means much added to our resources. But if they refuse to make the study they are pretty certain to be as unsuccessful for our purposes as they are success full in the older domain of literature. And so I say it is folly for aspiring writers who hope to make fame and fortune in the motion picture field 10 expect to do it off-hand. My advice to them is to put a check upon all pride, grasp the fact that one must begin at the bottom in phOtopIay au- thorship as elsewhere, and get down

New Play Brings Joy To Host of
 Drew Admirers

Mrs. Sydney Drew's second tndivi- dual starring effort "A Sisterly Scheme is now bringing joy to the host of Drew admirers just as success fully as did "Bunkered'' which was the first Paramount-Drew comedy in which ''POIly' appeared alone.
 Since her debut in pictures at the Vita graph studios several years ago, Mrs. Drew has advanced steadily in the field of film comedy. She realiz- ed her forte and together with the late Sydney Drew she created a type of laugh films which won universal approval. From Vita aph, the Drews went to Metro where they produced a single reel comedy weekly for two years. At the conclusion of the Metro contract, Mir. and Mrs. Drew were signed by Amedee J. Van Beuren of the V. B. K. Film Corporation to make Paramount-Drew Comedies. Under the new management, two reel come dies were inaugurated and Romance and Rings "Once a Mason,'' ''The Amateur Liar,' Harold, the Last of the SaXons'' and "Squared' put many audiences in a good humor.
 In "A Sisterly Scheme" Mrs. Drew as Polly" pilots her brother Jim 1nie' across a lake of romance and brings about a happy climax by res cuing Jimmie and the girI'' when their canoe upsets in mid-Iake. This Param comedy was sta ged at picturesque Lake George, New York

JUST GOSSIP
By D. J. l..

The biggest artistic hit vaudeville has ever known is the flattering conclusion of the Pacific coast in discussing Afarguerita SyIva's first transconunentaI tour This renarlla- bla operahc artiste, long favorite with international music and play low CTS, will round out a. cycle of yer s2taIty next month in California when she appears in a series of strong film dramas under the management of the American Film Company.
 The first extended tour of the Unit cd States made by Ethel Newco7nYs . noted American concerto pianisrt,. will begin at Philadelphia in Octo- Der. Miss Newconb was a pupil of the late Theodore Leschetizky, in Vii enna. and is now engaged in writing a most interesting volume of remin1s- censes of that remarkable and Ia nous parsonage.
 Miss Helene Flanders, one of the most beautiful of our concert sing CTS, and an artiste of rare charm and talent, whose first concert at Carne- gie's Hall reminded the music lovers of Lillian NOrdica's most brilliant ap- pearances, will extend her appear ances to a limited number of Ameri- can cities, giving music lovers else where than New York their first chance to hear the woman whose continental successes were events of historic note.
 The Theatre Parisien, the only play house in the United States at pres- ent devoted exclusively to French en- iertainInent will open Saturday even ing November l. The programme will include many new French comedies and dramas, and others that have been done here in English. In addi- ton a numBer of novelty surprises will be included in the programme, not the least interesting being the "ChansOns Montmarte.''
 The two groups of Rome, Gta1y, not N. Y. or Ga.) singers arrived in e,ew York last week, exhibited their arristry with satisfaction, artistically and financially, and now New York and the rest of the musical world sits back and awaits the next and what appears to be the most interesting g of Italian impOrtations, the celebrated St. Cecilia Orchestra, which will be heard for the first time outside of Italy at the Metropolitan Opera House, early in October
 The Theatre Parisien will open next month with a company imported from Paris and containing some of the best artistes from that city for which the leading theatres there are respOnsi- ble. This theatre, with an original Parisien programme, will be one o1 the novelties of the season.

SCREEN WRITING A TRADE

''The trouble with most new writ CTS in the photoplay field is the ex- pectancy of being successful at the very outset,' says Frank E. Woods, Paramount's able supervising direc- tor. This is unreasonable. No writ CT, whether he be a novelist short story author or dramatist need look for success without a struggle or without mastering the technique of his calling. There are instances in large number of writers for the stage who have rewritten their plays a score of times before getting them in to workable shape for the footIights
 Their case is like that of the novice in any vocation. Each calling is a trade that has to be learned as truly as any with which the hands have to do. One would not expect a busi- ness man to turn his hand to car pentry or matchmaking without go- ing through the painstaking processes of learning the steps by which pro- ficiency and neatness of workmanship are acquired. No more can a novel, ist become a dramatist without mas tering the special technique of the stage. And by the same token the person who hopes to write phctoplays

PLAZA.

Anita Stewart presentation at the Plaza theatre last night in '"The Midnight Romance' must have been thoroughly enjoyed by the patrons. IL is q story of mystery and love. Local the-.tre patrons will find a great diligence in this story and that of her first special production, ''Vir- tuous WiVes,'' for in "A Midnight Romance" Miss Stewart essays a role the exact opposite in it's social posi- ton, refinement, and asociatoa to that of her chara acterization of Amy Forester in owen Johnson's story. Her new vehicle is in six parts and makes a mighty interesting hours entertainment.
 The applaue hOnors of the bill were taken by James and Bessie Aikens in q singing and roller skatin 2 act. They are both very clever and a beautiful set is used. Brown and Jackson with a special drop had the audience laughing from start to fin ish. The girl in the act has a very good voice and the male member does some fine comedy bits. Henry J. Kelly goes big with some songs, stories and a. splendid recitation. Raymond Finley and Co. in Bring ing Home the Xmas Tree delivered many laughs. Topics of the Day, Pathe Review, News Weekly were all interesting.

\ SHORT CHAT

Clarence Badger, the able Goldwyn director, whose pictures starring Madge Kennedy, MabIe Nornland and Will Rogers have made his name a synonym for successful directing, was asked the other day what line he ex- pccted furtUre improvements of the motion picture would take. BIr. Badger replied without hesitation:
 T believe the development of worthwhile pictures is going b be towards plays of though1-plays ir which the mental clash dominates rather than he physical.
