Newspaper Talent REQUIRED

LEW lovers of screen drama, no
matter how confirmed their re-
gard for the photoplay may be. ever
stop to wonder who writes and COM
poses the newspapers one frequently
sees produced on the silver sheet
There is scarcely a picture released
these days which does not show one
or more journalistic inserts" of one
sort or another. They may be used
to acquaint the heroine of the hero's
false arrest or to tell the hero of
his sweetheart's marriage to another
man. These inserts" of newspapers
serve an important use in modern
screen drama.
The modern motion picture studio
on it's staff several former newspaper
editors PARTICULAR qualified to du-
plicate the various styles of news
paper makeup and to preserve. as
far as possible. the appearance Of
journalistic authenticity. At the
Paramount studio in California, for
instance, Frank y. Finnegan, former
staff of former journalists who care
for this work in pictures made there.
These men were called upon to
devise a page advertisement inserted
in Wallace Reid's latest picture.
ACROSS the Continent" that had it's
first showings in Washington last
Sunday-an advertisement which was
set up right in the studio. News
paper inserts" vary from three to
fifty in the average motion picture
and the most thoroughgoing faInil-
iarity with newspaper makeup nee
essarily enters into the preparation
of such material.

Kittens of Movie Fame

THEY say cat may look at king
but it does not often happen that
a king will look at a cat.
1t did happen the other day, however,
in New York city when King Henry
VIII and all his courtiers stopped work
on the big production. when Knight
hood was in Flower" being filmed at
Cosmopolitan Studios, long enough to
pay their respects to Molly" the studio
cat and her family of four just newly
arrived kittens.
1t was Marion Davies. star of the pro-
duction, who issued the invitation to
the christening party. And, in fact. 1t
was more a command than an invita-
ton, for Miss Davies was clad in the
robes of Princess Mary Tudor. Every

suddenly Miss Davies had the inspira-
ton to take the whole crowd to visit
the studio mascot and her family:
So off they tropped to blue draped

cess Mary and her ladies-in-waiting and

which appeared in "Humoresque." 1t was
"Molly's" mother who was lifted out Of

Success Not Due to Outlay

COME motion picture producers IN
- Los Angeles have recently predict
ed that the film Of the future is the
"biR'' production, made with large num-
bers and at heavy outlay. That not all
the movie leaders think that way is
shown by the expression Of King Nidor,
director of 1.-The Turn in the Road
'"The ,Jackknife Man" and other smaller
successful pictures.
Said Vidor: "Those who express such
sentiments wholly misread such signs
as we have to guide US. They do not
take into account the very important
factor we call by the little word appeal
.ewhat has lived on the stage? Not
the sumptuous, extravagant spectacles.
They have had their feeting mo mohiens EN-
and passed out of memory. what one
can be mentioned with Joe Jefferson $
simple comedy Rip Van Wrinkle with
it's record Of nearly half a century!
ITO take a more modern instance, the
outstanding piece OF our natlonal s.ase
is Lightnin'.' Frank Bacon,s simple
homely play Of trivial proaucsion snnt cUss Usars
is THE Miracle Man. which was pro-
duced at moderate cost, and others OF
great artistic and commercial success;
which cost comparatively little, couio
be cited. A modest picture with oeau-
tiful dog as it's star has broken all the-
ater records in Los Angeles.
''Some pictures costing not over
sso ono have swept large fortunes into
the pockets of their makers. Ihe Dig
snectacle has its market. but the smaller
picture with that elusive thing, appear,

Movie Set Insured for

everything from an eyebrow to

producer in his investment.
Marshall Neilan, in the production

surance people a new thrill when he
took out $4,000 worth Of insurance
on the contents of movie set for
twenty-four hours.
Tho set represented an elaborate
boudoir, Louis XIV design. and con-
tafned priceless antiques rented for
the occasion. the total value OF when
amounted to a small fortune. While
the amount paid for the renting OF
materials used in this scene was rea-
sonable enough, yet If the set had
been, damaged by shre or, had any OF
the ivaluables been stolen it would
havo cost the producers a nice penny.
In order to protect itself the insur-
ance company assigned a man to
watch the set during the lite Of the
po1tcys q
