New Serial, "The Yelled Mystery"


One of the principal requisites
for leading players in modern serial
thrillers is that of courage, and
coupled with this must be spirit OF
daring and love of adventure.
Antonio Moreno, who is starred in
Vitagraph's gripping chaptered film
story, "The Yelled Mystery" which
is to be shown every Saturday, be-
ginning October %, at the opera
house, possesses all these qualities.
He is not only an athlete, possessed
of unusual strength for one OF his
build, but knows how to use it in
time of stress and action. The writer's
of the story, "The Yelled Mystery"
had Moreno's qualifications in mind
while the narrative was being formed.
Moreno insisted upon going
through all the breath taking
stunts contained in the story HIM
self. He refused to allow doubles"
to work in scenes where strength and
agility were necessary or where a
great risk was involved. In all sltua-
tions. no matter how hazardous, he
was given the courageous support OF
charming Pauline Curley, his leading
woman throughout the story.

Things We Don't Understand.

@ Q O o @ o o o o @ o o o o . o.
One of the things we do not under
stand is how those funny people,
manage to be happy; that is, if they
are happy. A reason for 50 think
ing is that many Of them seem to
have real craze for hearing un-
wholesome news Like q mule
backing up his big ears they are al
ways on the lockout for skittish
things. AS hungry man Graves
food for his body some of these
funny people crave the morsels for
their minds, the tidbits being abso-
lutely necessary to their existence.
Pure food is essential for the inner
man ard the inner woman; but just
as rotten stuff is injurious to the
physical being, even so in turn are
the good and bad foodstuffs to the
mental makeup. This is only one
feature of the funny business. There
are lots of funny people and things.
