Call the Wagon

A bulletin service will be requir-
ed soon if the accidents to Jimmie
Adams and the supporting cast
working on his comedies, keeps in
creasing at the rate set in the last
couple of weeks. First, Adams was
nearly drowned by wrestling bear,
badly burned and injured in fall.
Then Cliff Bowes was badly injured
by the bear, which made a sweep
at his leg with his paw. This week S
casualties include the following:
Adams and Bowes were making a
scene in which they were chased into
a pipe by bulldog. After much
effort the dog was made to under
stand that he was to grab Bowes'
trousers, pulling off part of the gar
ment with his teeth. The dog fl
nally got so enthusiastic about it
that when the scene was started he
grabbed Bowes' leg instead of the
trousers, inflicting a wound that laid
the actor up several days.
Adams was bayoneted between the
eyes with real bayonet in the hands
of Kalla Pasha, famous wrestler, who
was playing the part of nut
house" guard.

Cupid Shoots A
Wicked Dart at
Western Studios

Young Dan Cupid must be getting
short of arrows out at Hollywood.
The little chap has been unusually
active during the past six weeks, and
vacations for honeymoon purposes
have been in demand.
Four marriages have taken place
and an engagement is announced.
The latest to say Il will is pretty
Kathleen O'Connor, Tom Mixs
leading woman. Her new husband
is Lynn Reynolds. He is a director.
All right--lets see you direct, Lynn.
Edith Hallor A Bride.
Jack Dillon, another director, took
Edith Hallor, leading woman. for
his bride, and started the wedding
ball rolling while Shirley Mason and
Bernard Dunning stood in the happy
couples corner, and gave three
cheers.
Then Barbara Bedford, leading
woman in a forthcoming production
with Jack Gilbert, decided it was
about time she annexed a husband.
She picked out Irwin Willat, the we'll
known director. Irwin didn't mnid,
and they have just got back from
their wedding trip.
Leatrice Joy, Too.
While all this was goirg on
Leatrice Joy was made a star by
Goldwyn, and about the same time
William Fox elevated Jack Gilbert
to stellar honor. Now the two
stars shine as one, for Jack and
Leatrice stepped up to a clergyman
recently and are now bungalowing
in Hollywood.
Not satisfied with what he had
done, Kid Cupid let go another shaft,
and this did the job for William
Scott, leading man, and Gladys
Brockwell, formerly a Fox star.
They have not said the fatal words
yet, but everyone on the coast is
looking for an announcement soon.

Bathing Beauties
Just Quit; Don't
Blame Censorship

Censorship has had nothing to do
with the decline in popularity of the
so-called bathing girl in motion pic
ture comedies, according to Al
Christie, producer of the Christie
comedies. The bathing girl "just
killed herself" Mr.. Christie says.
The picture comedy OF the future,
in Mr.. Christie's opinion is going to
be the one that tells a funny story,
with no situations that are not pos
sible in real life.
"That is why we like to take a
young married couple and weave a
story about them," said Mr.. Christie.
Love is the best and biggest thing
in life, after all, and for this reason
the picture based on a couple who are
wildly in love is likely to be the
most popular. "The best recipe for
laugh in picture comedies is just
this: Take boy and make them love
him. Take a girl and make them
love her. Then make them love
each other. Then try to keep them
apart"

1t is the first picture that Jackie
has done since Charlie Chaplin dis
covered him and produced THE
Kid" His work in that feature ap-
pealed to Irving Lesser as especially
fitting him for the title role in
"Peck's Bad Boy" and, after making
arrangements with Warner Brothers,
the continuity was prepared espe-
cially for Jackie and the picture pro-
duced.
Critics in New York, where
@Peck's Bad Boy" was recently given
its initial presentation, have de-
scribed the production as an epic of
boyhood days. The picture is re-
leased by Associated First National.
In producing "Pecks Bad Boy"
Mr.. Lesser took every step possible
to enchance the quality of the film.
The supporting cast given Jackie
Coogan is exceptionally strong, and
the direction and settings have been
highly commended. After the ac-
tual filming was completed Mr..
Lesser procured the services of Irwin
S. Cobb, the we1l-known humorist,
to write the subtitles, and the COM
plete result has been accepted by
the New York newspaper critics as
one of the best comedies that has
reached the screen in years.

Science, thrills and beauty abound
in the new photoplay, 'Wet Gold"
which opens today at the Moon
theater. At the first presentation of
this picture by ]. Ernest William
son, who has made a speciality of
underwater motion pictures, it was
hard to say whether the novelty Of
seeing men act naturally at the bot
tom of the sea was more alluring
than the struggle within the sub
marine or the horse race in Havana,
Cuba, where the beautiful Aleene
Burr sees her fathers favorite colt
beaten. This event leads the old
southern colonel to back the hero
who is none other than Ralph Ince
hirnself--in search of hidden treas
ure that a band of pirates had hid
den in an old wreck at the bottom
of the sea.
A submarine is employed to reach
the buried treasure, and the men are
seen walking about on the oceans
floor in search of it. A struggle at
the bottom of the sea is one of the
most thrilling episodes ever filmed.
Even more perilous, one of the act
ors was caught in the quicksand.
"Wet Gold" was directed by Ralph
Ince, who also acted the leading
part.
Omaha daily bee., 1921-07-10

Love, folly, joy, tragedy, laughter
AMI thrills-all are in the special
production, Blind Wives which
opens today at the Sun theater.
1t is based on my Lady's Dress"
the celebrated stage play by Edward
knoblock, and has an intensely in
teresting and dramatic story. The
scenes are laid in New Yark, France
and Russia, and range from the home
OF wealth to the slums of poverty.
Blind Wives" is really not one
play. but five--four episodes being
skillfully interviewer into the main
idea, which is to show the struggles
and the griefs recorded in different
parts of the world while the ma
terial that goes to make up my
ladys dress is being worked into its
final shape; to show how my lady
is spending enormous sums extrav-
agantly to make an impression,
while in many instances her hus-
band is shaving overtime to make
the money to meet the bills. The
idea is typical.
The play is most skillfully con-
structed and has many big, thrill
ing moments. 1t was directed by
Charles J. Brabin. The principal
parts are enacted by Estelle Tay-
.lor, Marc MacDermott and Harry
Sothern.
