a sideline and he says he's going to
stay with the theater as long as
they'll let him.
Fowler is a Washingtonian and
was born and raised over in the
Washington Circle neighborhood. or
on Twenty-first street, to be exact
He says he simply gravitated into
the life Of the theater as a school
boy and that he never thought of
doing anything else.
The first job he had ever had was
that of usher at the old Bijou

Louisiana avenue northwest, now
the Majestic. The Bijou was then
devoted to melodrama end from the
aisles. young Fowler quickly grad
uated into the theater office as as
sistant treasurer.
For eight years he gathered in the
quarters and half dollars at the Bijou,
and then he left TO take a job at the

TT would probably astonish the
movie fans to know just how much
money a screen star spends for

The screen star is constantly pos
Ing for photographs In expensive
photo studios-these photos TO be
used by his company for publicity

spending TO the appeals Of admirers
for photos
Another place in which the movie
star spends a mint OF money is in
keeping up appearances. The bigger
