 at Orpheo Theatre

"Up in Ferris Wheel" the name of the musical skit to be pre- sented by the Southern Beauties Musical Comedy company as the in- itial playlet of their second week at the Orpheo theatre, is one of the snap piest bills in MT.

Animals Make
 Good Movie Stars

Did you ever play in amateur the atricals? You know how difficult it is to catch your cues and give fin ished performance. It takes years of training to become at ease on the stage and yet Vitagraph has animals that can play parts as easily as any human being. These animals are ex- pected to do intricate pieces of busi- ness and appear natural with few re- hearsals.
 A chimpanzee and mouse play difficult roles in Larry Semon's new comedy. The money is expected to enter at the proper moment, change cards on an easel, applaud at given cue,' get up and throw the light switch, climb ladder and make his escape. That is but small part of what this animal star is expected to do in this comedy. He throws him. self into the spirit of the comedy ap- parently unconscious that he is being filmed. He never looks toward the camera or director except the part calls for it and goes about his busi- ness as though a great responsibil-. ity rested upon his shoulders.
 The mouse has an equally difficult role and demeans itself equally as well upon the stage. The mouse is expected to leap through the air at the proper cue, light on a mans baldhead, crawl down his back and drop out of his pants leg falling on a woman's back. From there the mouse is expected to crawl down the woman's back, make his way to the orchestra pit and crawl up onto the head of one of the musicians.
 See how long it would take. you to memorize these various acts so that you could do them without stopping to think what came next and you have some idea of what is required of this little mouse. It is a star and has played many roles in the Vita graph features, in fact Vitagraph is the only company this little mouse ever worked for and although it is not held by any contract. the little fellow claims that he will stick by Vitagraph for life.

Great Attention
 Paid to Details
 in Staging Plays

After viewing motion picture have you not wondered how and where thev found such charming To. cations? Have you not said to your self. "I would like to see the place where that was taken?" Yes, and there are thousands of others who would like to see it, too. The beau tiful fountain before which Mary stands may be several miles away from the veranda upon which John is sitting and reading his morning raper. That is hard to believe, for the eye deceives you.
 You see John on the veranda; you see him look and then he mods, and the next instant you see Mary. She looks, she mods and starts to run to- ward you. The scene changes John is sitting on the norch. Te rises and Mary comes up the stairs. It is inn possible to believe that the two loca- tions may have been miles apart. for thev dovetail so nicely in the picture.
 This illustrates the pains produc- CTS will take to rerroduce sets and locations exactly as they are dnscrib- ed in the story. The script calls for some location. set or property. The nroducer ooes on the assumption that that location or prop is somewhere
 The next thing is to locate it. Men are busy all the time searchine the hiehwav and bvways for locations They visit every Second hand store nawr shon. museum, junk dealer and the like in search of the specified piece Of property.
 The thing must be exactly like that called for in the scrint, and these cen are required to search until thev find it. Sometimes it, is drum exactly like that rsed in "The Spirit of '7f" or it mav he sword exactly itn the one that Napoleon carried. What ever is required must be produced.

Professors See
 Film to Reach
 Opinion on Girls

The mystery of woman's mind became the subject of an odd debate recently among a group of profes- sors of psychology in New York. The subject came before them in the form of an inquiry concerning a motion picture.
 These learned men were called up on to give a scientific statement as to when, from the mental and spiri- tual standpoint, girl becomes a woman. They were asked to witness the Vitagraph film, "The Girl Wom- an," featuring Gladys Leslie, in draw ing their opinion.
 In this film the remarkable story is told of an eighteen-year-old girl who is treated as a mere child and made to believe she is only such, but who becomes transformed into wom- anhood in a twinkling. This trans formation occurs when her father, whom she had never known, escapes from prison where he was held un- justly as a murderer, and comes to her. The girl woman feels the love of her parent and the instinct of ma turity bursting within her.
 She goes out into the world and hunts up evidence that clears the name of her parent.
 In passing judgment on the psy- chology of this film, the learned pro- fessors declared unanimously this be- lief:
 "Mental maturity, instinct and judgment are implanted in girls to a far greater extent than in boys. A girl attains self reliance much earlier than boy.
 "A girl, in fact, is capable of blos- soming into full womanhood, to face all manner of problems at the age of eighteen or even younger"
 It was further asserted that no amount of home restraint or. cloister- ing will retard girls growth to womanhood. When she is released from this restraint. comes instan- rightful estate of

Miss Corinne Griffith, the Vita graph star, brings refreshing DOT trayals of the character of the South ern girl type in her latest picture, ''The Bramble Bush." Miss Griffith is herself a Southern girl, native of New Orleans.
 Southern girls must be a dis tinct type" she remarked recently, flor know can tell one a block off. Maybe it is due to my instinct, or yearning to find some person from my own part of the country. But it seems to me Southern girls have something about them that identi- fies them at a glance"

GUESSING WHAT PEOPLE WANT IS
 A GREAT GAME
Moving Picture and Theatrical Folk Lose When They Guess
 Guess Wrong.

I The gift of prophecy has been
 claimed by millions of men and wom-
 en from the earliest period of civili- zation down to the present time. Many have cashed in on these claims being able to convince the credulous,
 the ignorant and the susceptible ele-
 ment of our population that these statements are well founded. But
 from time to time these prophets have lost their influence through a
 series of bad guesses of just what is behind the veil of the future Every theatrical manager feels that he is capable of outguessing his competi-
 tor as to just what the public will like
 in the way of entertainment and
 sometimes he hits it and more often he does not, with the result that the atrical store houses are chock full of useless scenery and furniture One of the richest and best known the atrical moguls stated that if he could find man who knew exactly what the public wanted he would be we'll warranted in paying such "Josiah" a million dollars year salary and then he would be bale omake mill lions for himself.
 The application of the condition in the theatrical business will apply to the picture industry. A produc- ing company that announces it's pro- ductions full year in advance and that such productions are all made and ready for distribution will not suffer if he can persuade the exhib- itor that it is worth his while to con- tract for the ready made features twelve months in advance of their showing.
 Here arises very important prob lem for the exhibitor. If during the year the appetite of the public for pictures should change, as it does time and time again, and the sort of pictures that drew the crowds in January are not the. kind that appeal to the March and April crowds, who is the one that suffers? There is but one answer-the exhibitors. Is it not better for the exhibitor to contract for such pictures as are made at time which permits the producer to keep his fingers on the pulse of the public, and if he discovers that the stories that drew the crowds in Janu- ary will not serve to keep the girl in the box office busy in February be able to shift to some other sort of storie sto get the crowds with his March releases?
 Book publishers have often said that a prudent distributor of novels will not contract so far ahead Oft times an author who was in the very zenith of his popularity early in the year found his books which were nriced at one dollar and half in March could not be sold for fifty cents in September.
 The World Film corporation in ad- herring to it's policy of program pic- lures does not make it's productions so far ahead that it loses touch with the public. and thus keeps pace with the market demand In it's opinion, do not embarrass it's franchise holders with picture that are no longer profitable to the ex- hibitor through the indifference of the public to the stories picturized in it's releases.

CHAPLIN STUDIES
 10 PLAY ROLES
 OF SHAKESPEARE
Comedian Plans to Appear as King Lear, Caesar and Other
 Parts.

Los Angeles, Cal, Aug. 16.-It is a well assured fact now that Charles Chaplin Is to hie to the legitimate stage and-not to comedy or comedy drama to Shapespeare. King Lear Othello, Julius Caeser, Macbeth and everything in the Shapespearian world. He is not going to leave the pictures forever, you understand. As one of the local papers had it, he will still continue to derive therefrom his wherewithal to buy bread, but from the stage and the Shakespear- ian holes, he will win fame. Since the comedy version of Carmen" many have realized the breadth of Charlie's scope. There were bits here and there throughout the entire pro- duction that so nearly brought the en- tears to the eye that it was only the timely spin on his weak funny heel that saved the day from tragedy.
 In Shoulder Arms" every one felt dier who was the only one the post man failed to remember and who pass ed the day without box from "home." Perhaps the words told to Charlie by a resident of Hollywood who had a CCIlVGISdIlOu WlCu UOCu OlI IAcIUCL Beerbohm Tree before the famous actors death in July, 1917, beckoned Charlie more strongly to Shakespeare than anything else.
 "What 1 missed most in Billy Sum- day l found to it's fullest extent in Chaplin" said Sir Herbert, namely reverence and and extraordinary thoughtful outlook on life. l remem Der long talk I had with him one night and he then told me his great est desire was to act in some of Shakespeare's great tragedies 1 have not the slightest doubt but that he would be great success. And espe- cially so from the spiritual and intel lectual point, of view. You may be quite certain that if Chaplin does take the legitimate stage he will astonish people by his absolute capacity to put before them the very highest spiritual aspect of which the stage is capable"
 Just when Charlie means to make his Shakespearian leap is not known but it is certainty that it is to come as soon as possible and he is going to prove more forcibly than it has ever been proven before the great connec- tion between comedy and tragedy and that one must be able to do both to do eithed.

A RESOURCEFUL WOMAN.
(By Winnifred Harper Cooley, De- partment of Food Economics,
 Armour and Company.)

ooh, dear," sighed Mrs. Forsythe
 last Monday, "1 don't see why our club has its first meeting in August. promised to entertain the executive board for luncheon, and here it is 90 degrees-imagine me cooking chick "Now, Minnie," returned her friend,
 "If you will just be sensible and get

Wise women nowadays don't slave cutting up stiff, sbristly pineapple, and leaning over hot cook-stoves and boiling hominy three-and- -a-half hours, wasting gas, or trying to can spinach. And just fancy the horrors of plunging the poor live Holsters in boiling water All these things are beautifully pre- pared commercially, and are most de- licious. If you choose high-grade brand, insuring quality and purity, why you are safe, and you's be mighty glad to have the pick of hundreds of delicacies, all ready to serve."
 After some demurring, because of her old-fashioned. erroneous ideas, the little hostess yielded and made the ex- pertinent of commercially prepared luncheon. Together the two women worked out menu. and of course. made some thin hread-and-bu butter sandwiches and oarnished tho appe- tizine viands with greens.
