Notes Instead OF Gala

The note Of sympathy for sick per

II is proper and kind to send a note
expressing regret for a friends illness
and suggesting one would like to call
when the invalid is convalescent. All
messages written or sent TO the sick
should be brief and cheerful. -Biddy

Keen troubles TO Yourself.

Life for the vast majority of Us is
none too carefree. This trouble, or
that disappointment. makes our world
very cherries at times; but dwelling
upon our problems. celebrating upon
our difficulties. or longing to share
those unpleasant realities with others,
Will not aid us one iota. we, each, in

and if we are wise refuse to be infIu-

Joe Horne's Cash Girl.

One OF the inevitable penalties for
success upon the stage is that one
must submit his private life to the
lnvestigative scrutiny Of a curious
public. Nothing gratihes the press
agent quite SO much as a free rein
with an actress past. Nothing IS
read with greater avidity BY those
who patronize the box-officc than
bits OF intimate gossip about stage
folk that will eushroUd them with
that desirable air Of superiority af-
fected by those in the know"
Probably no one paid much attrn-
tion to the freslde activities Of
Olive Thomas when she was ca sh

Pittsburgh at a weekly wage or So.
nor yet when she was elevated to

Sinister Influence
Of Gems Plays Part
In Film at Columbia

There is sinister fatalism at
tached to Jewels. In real life, fic-
tion or films it has become estab-
lished that glittering gems spell in
trigue and ruin for all those who
touch the objects without a clear
conscience. often Jewels bring dis
aster to the innocent.
An intensely 1raNStic treatment
of the baleful influence of gems
is given in The Hornets Nest" a
Vitagraph feature that will be
shown at LOew's Columbia today.
Earle Williams, one of the lead
ing matinee idols" of the screen
is the star. The film was produced
at Vitagraph's Hollywood studio by
James Young. 1t was adapted from
the famous story of the same title
by Mrs. Wilson Woodrow.
In the case of The Hornets Nest"

OF suspense-laden intrigue and ad-

owners recover the gems after they
have changed hands several times,

cOnfounded by their own triCkery.

Many Pictures in
The Average Novel,
Says Rupert Hughes

The entry of the author into the
producing field has stimulated a
discussion on the novels relation
to the screen, particularly on the
material provided for adaptation.
One of the cries recently is that
the action of most modern novels
is inadequate to At the adaptation
into the many-reel modern picture.
On this point Rupert Hughes, of
the new Goldwyn-Beach Company.
Eminent Authors Pictures comes
forth with this statement:
IF anyone says that novels are
not large enough in scope to pro-
vide material for full length pic
lures that person is positively in
error. While. of course, there are
many novels in which there is very
little action and a great deal of
interpretive psychology. the ma
jority of novels provide enough ma
terial in the way of action for If
teen or twenty reels. Any one of
Dickens novels is long enough to
make ten seven|reel pictures. A
Dumas novel has enough for twenty
seven-reel pictures.
Miss Blanche Sweet said that
while they were making The I'm
pardonable Sim" they found ma
terial enough for an entire series.

1.-THE Miracle Mans" HISTORY.

As will be remembered. at the time
The Miracle Man" was published in
story form in Munsey's Magazine, it
created an impression on the public
which has hardly been equaled. The
editor of the magazine received thou
sands of inquiries asking for more
light on the truths outlined in the
story and on which its wonderful ap-
peal is based The theme of the story
held the readers gripped in its mag
nifCent lesson, and the unlimited
vistas Of thought which it opened up,
throughout the entire time it was run
ming in serial form, and they wrote
letters to the editor for months follow
ing its publication.
Then George Cohan wanted to see It.,
with the idea in mind for play.
Send 1t over to the train: I'm on
my way to Washington" the ener-
getic Mr.. Cohan asked Bob Davis, who
had the story in his possession. And,
according to Mr.. Davis, Eddy Dunn.
Mr.. Cohans agent, was dispatched
toward the depot with the manuscript.
George Cohan planned to read it while
in Washington. In his compartment
he opened its typewritten pages just
to take a peep, but the peep led to
more, and soon Cohan found himself
buried so deeply into the fascinating

New Title Chosen
For Farrar-TeIlegen
Story Of Petrograd

The World and Its Woman" is the
name finally chosen by Goldwyn for
the new picture in which Geraldine
Farrar will star Her husband, Lou
Tellegen. will support her The Gold
wyn Company now makes the an
nouncement that THE Golden Song"
the working title, has been displaced
by THE World and Its Woman"
The story is laid in Petrograd and
the surrounding country. with the
seething political and social unrest
of the day forming a dark and omi-
nous atmosphere background for the
development of an exquisite love
story. Geraldine Farrar portrays the
development of a young American
girl, the protege of a Russian prince
through whose generosity and kind
ness. her voice is cultivated and she
is trained for career in the opera
An idea of the vastness of the set
tings and the realism achieved by Di-
rector Frank Lloyd in picturing the
story of Thompson Buchanan, can be
CLEANED from the fact that a street in
Petrograd has been reproduced after
tireless research by the Goldwyn
archaeological department. In this
scene, $500 extras were used Anorh-
er big moment in the story reveals the
interior OF the Petrograd Opera House,
which was duplicated in the Culver
City studios. The scene in which Miss
Farrar scores her operatic triumph
was taken at night; and $50 supers
were engaged to applaud the triumph
of the new singer. The opera around
which Miss Farrar's play within a.
play centers is "Thais;" and Miss
Farrars dramatic Interpretation is
fired with all the passion and power
which has made unforgetable her
originally conceived rendition of this
difficult role.

Corbett, in Films,
Seems to Defy Age;
Looks Like a Youth

The new Universal-James J. Cor
bett serial, The Midnight Man"
must be a revelation to the world. for
it screens a former ring champion
who. though no longer young, photo
graphs like a youth.
One would expect the Corbett Wis
age to be somewhat scanned with his
years; one naturally would look for
the lines in his brow, about the eyes
and the mouth. But in this thriller
all these things are happily absent.
Corbett himself. to the naked eye
looks very young indeed.
Yet the camera, which persistently
divulges many secrets. has failed to
reveal the age of James ]. Corbett.
Fight fans. seeing Corbett on the
screen, think they are looking upon
the champion of 1892.
Why.
Disposition has preserved James J.
Corbett. He photographs, in the Ian
guase of the moment. like a million
dollars" Good living has made Cor
