Women Can Direct
Film Productions
As Well As Men
BY international News Service.

New York, Aug. 1j.-lt used to be
an old saying that the husband and
wife couldn't both be inordinately
bright. This seemed to be especially
true where literary talent was in
volved.
But Mrs. George Randolph Chester
has proved that there is nothing to
that notion. For the last nine years
Mrs. Lillian E. Chester has collab-
grated with her husband in all OF his
books and stories. 1t is the only
case on record of an international au-
thor working in complete collabora-
ton with his wife.
1t will probably be of interest to
thousands of readers to know that
Mrs. Chester aided her husband in
writing the famous Wallingford stor-
les. 1t. now develops that Mrs.
Chester put many of the peculiar
twists into the very original char
acter of "Blackie Daw.
In one OF her husbands stories
there was a wealth of detail regard
ing the girls dresses, and many read
ers probably remarked that mo mere
man could write all these details
about pretty girls clothes" And it
now develops that it was Mrs. Chest
er who supplied the feminine touches.
When George Randolph Chester
decided to picturize his stories sew
eral years ago and learn the technical
part of the silent drama Mrs. Chester
also decided to take up scenario writ
ing and the making of movies in the
studios. Like her husband she be-
came a pupil III screen and studio
technique, and they have several
screen successes to their credit.
While American women are en-
tering all fields of activity and en-
rolling in positions formerly held
sacred to mere men, it has been left
to Mrs. Chester to set up new rec
ord for women in motion pictures.
In collaboration with Mr.. Chester
she recently wrote the story and
scenario of the final episode Of the
Wallingford series.
Then she accompanied her husband
to California studio and with him
personally directed the screening of
the story. Mrs. Chester carefully
guarded every detail, as if she were
rearing child instead of celluloid
classic.
After all the scenes were "shot"
she accompanied her hus' md to a
New York studio, and VIII him is
now titling, editing and cutting their
film.
Mrs. Chester and l work together
as one person." says her distinguished
husband with enthusiasm. "We make
an ideal combination, for we really
collaberate, and she should have the
credit for it."

Both were so violently seized with

Rosalie bobbed her hair. In the

All OF which follows a married

an impulsivc marriage which itself
was brought about on account OF

where" and "Bucking the Tiger"
A delightfully."- human story is
promised in "The Girl From No
where" starring Elaine Hammer
stein, which opens today at the En-
press theater for an engagement of
four days.
The role of Marvis Cole, played
by Miss Hammerstein, demands
skillful Interpretation of many dra-
matte moods. The story carries an
interesting romance through numer-
Gus complications and ends w1.ll
surprise that gives that engaging
twist to an entertainment as exen.-
plified in wholesome screen diver
sions.
The gilded youth from the exclu-
sive circles of Washington, the count
from the Fauberg St. German, the
champion bull thrower of the Ari-
zona desert, and the black sheep of
an old southern family are among
the derelicts left in the back wash
of prosperity at the end of the klon-
dixie gold rush and the story of how
they reacted on each other is the
backbone of "Bucking the Tiger"
which comes to the Empress theater
next Thursday, with Conway Tearle
in the stellar role.
Through the plot, which is one of
stirring adventure in the uncivilized
camps of the frozen north, runs
love story which is fraught with
tragedy, crossed by hatred and re-
venge, and yet never loses in SYM
pathetic interest and confidence that
the two great souls will finally win
the happiness they deserve.

Germs young girl of wealth, who is
bereft of all parental guidance and
fascinated by the subject of Cleo

Whats Worth While?' which
plays tomorrow and Tuesday at the

of an aristocratic young woman who
loves an honest-to-goodness working
man. Lois Weber directed the act
ing. Claire Windsor is the star.
Skirting the crags of the towering
Sierras, plunging through snow
scenes, ending in a wild night ride

gineers a train through one of the
most thrilling stories of his film
career in "The Love Special" which
plays next Wednesday and Thurs
day at the Muse
