the more time there will be available
for its consideration. The full par
t~iculars regarding your registration
are set forth in our Mondays issue so

and get all the information.
Harold ]. Binney. when seer at the
Moscow Hotel this morning said II,
am indeed pleased to know that the
idea of a home talent picture here in
Moscow has resulted in such an i'm
mediate response. Of course we in
the profession have reason to know
that our line of effort is more or less
fascinating to the public but not until
we get away from the studio and out
into sections or less away fram
the beaten paths Of the producing
units do W. fully realize just how
great a grip picture making has on the
public.
And why not? In my opinion it
should be an ambition with every
young person. 1t combines more of
the sought after things of life than
any other profession known. In the
first place there is the remuneration
other line of effort returns any
where near so great a remuneration.
Can you think of any individuals out
side of movies who are receiving into
the millions of dollars yearly for their
work. Such stars as MaIy Pickford,
Fatty Arbuckle, Douglas Fairbanks,
charlie Chaplin, the Talntage sisters
several more are getting nlany
lines more thar any Of our kings,
PRESIDENT or even men i'll the industrial
world. And it is not necessary to be
great star either to get big incomes.
You do not see a feature picture in
Which the more prominent supporting
'layers ever get less than $3.50 per
and sometimes up into the
thousands. Of course the extra peo-
lie work for small money but if they
re capable they will soon be recog-
lied and will get out of the extra
lass. You have often read argumnets
n the question of mans ambition,
neither it is in the majority for fame
fortune. The fortune phase Of the -
industry is pretty well known.
ow how about the fame-Can you ar

But it is desirable only when it is

no class of neonIe so completely Ee
